UPDATE on BCG lawsuit against GameStop: Court Wipes Away Half of BCG's Shitty Claims Against GameStop
(credit to reddit u/lawdog7)
This is a long overdue update on BCG's lawsuit against GameStop.
The last update discussed Gamestop's pending motions to transfer venue and to dismiss the case. The Court has since ruled on both. While the Court denied Gamestop's venue motion, it granted--in part--the motion to dismiss.
The Court dismissed all claims other than the breach of contract based on a "Type II preliminary agreement." Source
The Court did give BCG an opportunity to replead, which they did Gamestop has now moved to dismiss the claims as replead. Both sides have filed briefs and the Court should rule on the new motion to dismiss soon.

Lemmy and Kbin are great, but it's not a panacea. The protocol (ActivityPub) has faults. Also start looking into nostr
From a technical standpoint, the protocol (ActivityPud) underlying Lemmy and Kbin has security and performance faults that make it inefficient. It's a great step towards decentralization but there is another alternative that I want to raise awareness of: Nostr.
Nostr is another protocol, like ActivityPub. Similarly, to Lemmy and Kbin on ActivityPub, Nostr has clients built on top of it. For instance: Damus on iOS, Coracle.social on web.
Right now, most clients only behave like twitter clones. However, the nostr protocol is much more robust than ActivityPub. It could easily support reddit-like platforms-- developers are already working on it-- as well as far more, like crypto payments, game-server-host connection, and more. Critically, it is possible to create ActivityPub-Nostr bridges.
It's early days in this new frontier of decentralized social platforms. If you are excited about The Fediverse, definitely play with the nostr protocol as well.
In this thread, you can also share your nostr pub keys so we can build the GME community there!
Proud to be subscriber (https://kbin.social/tag/16)! I don't understand why there aren't more people migrating here due to reddit api debacle. Why would we run to another centralized platform, YT
Proud to be subscriber #16! I don't understand why there aren't more people migrating here due to reddit api debacle. Why would we run to another centralized platform, YT Gangnam style, instead of this in case of emergency?
Purged from Reddit: "Google has blocked auto-complete of the word 'perjury' with 'Ken Griffin'"
I saw on r/undelete that this post was deleted. The powers-at-be are trying to control the narrative.
I also confirmed for myself that the allegation aginst google is true; "perjury" and even "lie" will not autocomplete after "ken griffin"

Well, for what it's worth I'd say GMECanada is officially moving... I'm the mod of both the reddit and lemmy versions :). It's more of a 'soft move' -- a slow migration but there's no need to hurry, yet at least. I'm encouraging users to try out the lemmy community. Give it time, it'll happen I think.
There are already lemmy versions of superstonk and DRSYourGME, ...
I've created GMECanada on the lemmy-verse.
If you're not on lemmy.ca but another instance, search for [email protected] in the Communities search, or "DRS GME" for others and subscribe to link across instances.
Someone's also created drs_your_gme ([email protected]). Same procedure if you're not on their home instance.
EDIT: fixed links.
