As far as I can tell they are not disclosing the patent application number anywhere. They only give a vague description of what it's supposed to cover. Yet they are being very aggressive about "infringers" of their patent the

You need crazy long passwords for that to become the limiting factor. With random printable characters on the keyboard there are a bit less than 7 bits per character (unless a crazy amount of different accents are used). So you need passwor

Haven't anybody made hardware that can make a 2d flux image capture of any tape yet? I'd imagine it could be done using a staggered array of high density tape heads for modern tape drives like LTO-9. I'm thinking that might h

I meant that idea and fixed are both English words, so it should be possible to associate ideafix with "fixed idea" - a bit more obscure though than the original.

You need to actively defend a trademark to keep it protected. Formally registering it is neither sufficient nor necessary. Also as someone pointed out on Twitter it's probably not even in the right category to protect against the use i

CH430 is not an FTDI clone as far as I can tell, so i'm not sure how this is relevant? If you want existing drivers to "just work" with your clone device[1] then you need to return a vendor and product id it already recognize

They claimed they were targeting counterfeit FTDI chips. But in reality they have no way of telling the difference between a counterfeit and a clone in software - after all the only difference is what is written on the IC package/wha
