Luigi Thirty posted:aha there was a thing on that Microsoft blog about this, something about how not all USB devices have serial numbers so windows can't uniquely identify the same device plugged into a different port. your device is stupid and doesn't have a serial number. ahh this explains why i have to go through the process of manually picking drivers for my knockoff wireless xbox controller adapter every time i unplug it. whatev, still less shameful than paying £20 for the real one

it also said that quite often all devices from a manufacturer have the same serial number and fun things happen in windows 95 when two USB devices have the same serial number

the post-iphone rush to push out touch-driven smartphones using whatever poo poo os was available at the time was a glorious thing that led to terrible products like the htc touch diamond and the samsung omnia.
