Another day, another patent filing. This time it’s from Microsoft, who seems to be trying to patent the most clever way to integrate a masturbatory joke in technology yet. The specific patent details “whacking off” a phone in order to silence it once it’s ringing. Since the term “whack” has no real definition of force between two different people, there’s no telling what sort of motion this is. They just couldn’t stick with flip to silence?
