Wayfair is largely dropship trash.


Yeah we used filters to search for just solid wood (no MDF), but apparently even the "solid wood" stuff is still pretty flimsy.


Is that it, or can some sort of appeals clownery continue?


There are multiple cases which aren't automatically dismissed due to this loss, including the defamation claim against Hodlonaut and the case over open source developers owing wright a fiduciary duty to author, publish, and (somehow) enforce a back door to recover billions of dollars worth of coins he says he lost the keys to.

As far as appeals go, determinations of fact are generally not appealable unless there was a clear error. Permission to appeal would have to be sought and aren't automatic.

If the judgement and remedies aren't forceful enough in this case, Wright may just begin the same litigation from another jurisdiction. On the stand he basically said that if he loses he will begin litigation on patent infringement grounds-- it isn't like having a baseless position has ever stopped him before.

To some extent it depends more on his funders willingness to keep financing him than anything else... he's given every sign that so long as he's funded and not incarcerated he'll keep it up.

Apparently you have?


Website keyboard “shortcuts” are the worst, they always break other things to give a very non standard means to mutate state.


Looking at all of the sites who have taken over Ctrl-K which is the browser shortcut to jump to the search bar.


This gets me every day, so annoying. Workaround is ctrl+L (or alt+d) then ctrl+k.

A new one I just encountered is a site where both spacebar and shift+spacebar made the page scroll downwards.


Imagine trying to course correct while hydroplaning or skidding on snow.


Don’t know why you’re being flagged, the way this site editorializes, you’d think they’d correct a typo.


Dumb take, anybody can hold Bitcoin.


Xi says a lot of things, though.
