That was expected tbh

that's what it is actually about:

"The core of ZeniMax’s case is that one of its former employees, John Carmack, shared ZeniMax virtual reality technology with Palmer Luckey, a founder of Oculus, during the company’s early days, technology for which ZeniMax was never compensated. Mr. Carmack, a game industry stalwart behind games like Doom, later joined Oculus."

zenimax didn't want carmack's VR tech, but allowed him to research. he later left zenimax and joined oculus. oculus got bought by facebook.

however, all the articles and news are about facebook and zuckerberg, and, for whatever reason, all articles mention how Zuckerberg is dressed?

not sure what's worse here.
a) the shitty news coverage about zuckerbergs clothes and facebook, or
b) the ugly court decision where a company that, when Carmack asked directly, refused to support his VR project, now gets millions out of it.

We should read the complete ruling before jumping into conclusions. That paragraph alone doesn't tell the whole story.

For example had Carmack used his paid time to do said research then Zenimax clearly deserves a compensation. I can't tell that with said paragraph.

In any case, this is good for us. The company behind id software is getting more money, therefore indirectly id software will have a bigger budget to make Quake Champions or other games that we are interested in. I couldn't care less about Facebook losing money.

if Carmack's time is worth so much than why does he only have 50 mil $?

In any case, this is good for us

In any case, this is good for us

an idiotic decision.

chump change

Carmack not impressed with zenimax's expert witness: https://t.co/TMJB43uipi

he's right about testimonies belonging to public record tho. (and I suppose everything else)

Just found out that Mr Elusive died from idsoftware/oculus.
What happened?
He was only 39...

i did a news about Jan Paul van Waveren.
