Thus it happened early 1976 in a       revision of said CPU.              > "ROR" stands for "Restore Our Rights" and could       > be the battle cry of the Copyright Mafia.              No, it stands for ROtate (bits) Right.              > The ROR folks might join forces with The Woke movement and start       > persecuting retrogaming fans.              Commodore didn't knew what woke means.              > Did you know that Copyright for Mickey Mouse       > has now expired and companies like Disney do not       > like that at all?              Oh, you're not talking about CPUs. ;-)              Well I don't know for "Restore Our Rights". They'd probably need to have       the power to change expiration laws. As far as I can tell not even the       mighty Disney company was able to prevent Steamboat Willy from falling       into public domain earlier this year.       --       Andreas              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
