<p>Beyond the dazzling sea of licensed fireworks and thunderclouds lies a cosmic array of ancient stars. It’s within our gaze upon these stars where we find the inspiration for COSMIC DE, our new desktop environment created for Pop!_OS and other Linux distros. Let’s get into the updates!</p>

<p>I had a similar experience growing up in Singapore, though that was more for the ubiquitous, affordable, reliable, easy to understand, and safe public transport. I was allowed outside by myself when I was 9, and that was considered late by my friends.</p>

"I have another take from G 1/92, which is very general and from which today’s Boards should take inspiration. A broader teaching of G 1/92 is to interpret the EPC as it is written and to keep away from interpretations which amount to amendments, be it the addition (the incentive to investigate in G 1/92) or the deletion of a condition.<br /><br />As to Anonymous’s reference to « tamper-proof » products, I beg to differ.

protection devices of a commercial product could always be dismantled by the buyer to reverse engineer it. Protection against reverse engineering could only be secured by having the buyer agree on confidentiality restrictions but this is not part of a regular sales agreement and could raise competition law issues. If it is possible for software, this is because software is covered by copyright and copyright law applicable to software d

"Anonymous of Wednesday, 12 July 2023 at 12:44:00 GMT+1, that is a very good point. But here it is not about 'enablement' in the sense of a claim being enabled. It is about a marketed product in the prior art, and so the test for 'enablement' of that is difficult to define. For example, can the teaching of the relevant patent specification be used to assist in enablement of the marketed product. To what extent must it be enabled (thinki

ng of your wood grain point)? To the extent it falls within the claims? What happens if the claims are narrowed? Does replication of the marketed product stop being enabled below a certain claim scope because then the common general knowledge is no longer good enough, and you need the teaching in the spec?"
