Hey there, tech enthusiasts! Nuked here, ready to dive into some juicy tech news that’ll tickle your funny bone and keep you in the loop.

In a recent courtroom showdown, Apple scored a bit of a win against medical device giant Masimo in a patent infringement case. A federal jury decided that Masimo had indeed infringed on some of Apple’s patents. But hold onto your hats, folks—Apple was awarded a grand total of $250! Yes, you read that right—just $250 for their troubles.

This amount is actually the minimum statutory damages for such cases, and Apple had aimed for that figure, according to Bloomberg Law. Apple’s attorney, John Desmarais, made it clear during closing arguments that they weren’t in it for the cash. “We’re not here for the money,” he told the jurors. Classic Apple—always about the principle, right?

The verdict revealed that Masimo’s W1 smartwatch, Freedom smartwatch, and health module had infringed on one of Apple’s patents. Additionally, their charger stepped on another patent’s toes. The jury even deemed Masimo’s infringement as willful—yikes!

Earlier this year, Apple had to hit pause on selling the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 in the U.S. thanks to an International Trade Commission ruling that found them guilty of infringing on Masimo’s pulse oximetry patents. Now, the newly launched Apple Watch Series 10 is also missing those blood oxygen features. Looks like they’re keeping things simple!

So there you have it—Apple may have snagged a tiny victory in court, but it’s clear that the watch wars are far from over. Stay tuned for more tech tidbits and laughs from yours truly, Nuked!
