Novice needs help with crazy project

Unless the person is selling this thing who cares? I was under the impression someone could build something for personal use regardless of patents.

I certainly wouldn't let a patent stop my own innovation.

LOL, you make up rules for us to follow and then you don\'t even
follow them yourself?  That is, you didn\'t even trim the stuff
below, which has nothing to do with your post.

Fuck you and the horse you rode in on, hypocrite.

Which reminds me, a few years ago i remember a case where a company create a product that some one else had a patent on. The product was for a very small and specific market. The person that held the patent for this, heard about it after 2 years of it being used then the legal battle started. In the end. the patent holder didn't get anything other than a large bill from his lawyer. It appears that this person had patents on a lot of different things with no actual material(devices, paper work, documentation ect) etc.. In other words, they simply created patents on idea's only. It was there for decided in court that the patent was invalid, and soon after, the company got a patent for them self's on this product.

I remember a few years ago when i was in a small business of my own, I was told to package a sample of the product we had and mail it to my self but never open it. Do this once a year. and also get a legal patent on record. Because cases like this happen all the time.

Bad advice. Write it up, get someone with understanding to read it and date and sign the report.

oh dear!

you just don't learn do you?

having got publicly slaughtered in the little trot about PINs and card security in general (oh yes you f****ng were), you are up to your tricks again... spouting about things you have no knowledge of, making threats then denying them, ripping into people when they don't agree with you.

hey... I am still waiting for you to do your hocus-pocus thingy on my heart - oh wait! you can't - COZ IT'S ALL CRAP!

here... I had an idea... take a look at this link....

formatting link

this is a scan of my birth certificate - I have blurred out all the interesting stuff... you will also notice that I am certified male - your certificate (if you had one - what with you being a little bastard and all) would say "androgynon" - greek for "man-girl" i.e. you are a weener with no balls... fits.

You reckon it would be a bad thing for a psycho - err, psychic to stop my heart so you won't do it out of loyalty to some higher power... well this is fairly benign and you won't get into trouble with any sky-fairies...

here is my challenge to you - once again, MY FAITH AGAINST YOURS- I have faith you will fail.

remote view my birth certificate and give me two of the missing details... just two... there's a reason I ask for two - lets see how smart you are eh? If RV is all it is supposed to be, then you should be able to give all the details... but like all other RVs you won't - BECAUSE IT DOESN'T WORK! Oh, and your reference to some film I should see that deal with RV... IT'S ONLY PEOPLE PRETENDING! IT'S NOT REAL - are you one of these idiots that cheers ina movie when superman fixes the bad guy... bet you are... whooping and punching the air - remember the 80%? That's you that is.

you won't be able to resolve the data from the image - gaussian blur leaves no residual that can be rebuilt.

I await your failure with baited breath.

A non-correct reply or abscence of a reply within one week is an admission by you of complete failure - you must be used to this by now.

PS... you suck gay c*ck.

good point well made.

I think TP is a better format but not wishing to annoy, I bend to others preference.

To prosecute people who tamper with the CATV physical plant, which was happening LONG before there was any scrambling equipment. I've seen photos were some dumbass hacksawed the shield off the .750" CATV trunkline. Then he connected it directly to his TV set. The high RF levels blew out the RF amp, and the 30 VAC 30 A power supply set the input circuit on fire. Most of the system went down when he opened the shield, so it wasn't very long before the damage was found. Then, the stupid SOB tried to sue the CATV company for the damage to his TV, and not having warning labels that the lines were carrying AC power.

Thanks - but somehow your post must've gotten messed up. The helpful part seems to be missing.

The "many years ago" could be the problem ... things have changed in the last few years. Although I hate to use Wikipedia to support a point, the "Research exemption" page does have some good references to read about:

formatting link
The relevant title can be grabbed from
formatting link
which makes it very clear that the construction of a patented device infringes the patent: "Except as otherwise provided in this title, whoever without authority makes, uses, offers to sell, or sells any patented invention, within the United States, or imports into the United States any patented invention during the term of the patent therefor, infringes the patent". There are no explicit exemptions in the title itself for research except for specific pharmaceutical-related situations. The more general research exemption (in the US) is originally from the Whittemore v. Cutter case, but this has been significantly narrowed over the years, especially in the last 5 or so.
