If you think about it, this might be a good thing. To many apps I've run across appear to simply be a container of safari to a web portal. e.g. all the banking apps I've tried (chase,amex,discover) They are a terrible waste of space. Flashlight apps a simple web page can provide, color changes and all -- most games. An app should only be a compiled app if it requires hardware input (MULTItouch, accel, gps. mic, etc) or if they can be used offline.
Most people don't seem to realize a bookmark can be a home screen icon.
While I would have loved for this to happen, there was a marked trooper behind him soon after. It would have ended in two self-defense killings (cyclist > jackass cop, marked cop > cyclist)
I think it would be neat to have them write the simple application without testing it at all afterward (ie on a piece of paper or within vi).
Then if it works on the first run, great! Otherwise you can watch their debugging process which is also a very very good skill. On that note, give them a purposefully broken script and see how they deduce the problem as they will likley be working with others' code.
I had made a recording I posted to the tubes and the TV was on in the background, not even clearly audible, and it got nicked for infringement. It had been up for over a year and wasn't even a minute long.
A complementary device enhancement known as simultaneous 1X Voice and EV-DO Data (SVDO) will also become available during the same timeframe and will enable CDMA2000 devices to access EV-DO packet data services while in an active 1X circuit-switch voice call.
I've had great success with SysClean from trendmicro. It's free and may be a bit unintuitive how to get the files required, but it has worked greatly for me in the past for malware that disable AVs and requires no isntallation.
If I'm doing my math right:
160 character limited frame
Just using "a-zA-Z0-9" gives us 62 characters - throw in a few punctuation for 64 which we can use for base64/MIME encoding. Giving us 6 bits to use per character(byte)
Assuming an 8-bit byte in original data, 33% larger
160*6/8 = 120 bytes, 8 bits each in each SMS
250 messages of 120 uncompressed bytes each is 30 KB or 240 Kb
If I remember SMS already has sequencing in its protocol so you shouldn't have to sacrifice your own bits for that. SMS has a broader set of characters than 64 so we can inflate that number. What's the big deal?
When did AdBlock Plus sift through flash source code for ad agents and dynamically disable/remove them within a flash applet and recompile it on the fly so that the applet isn't fully blocked? I checked my plugin updates but I see no new version of ABP. Is this a beta version you're using?
I don't know if this counts as a hacking, but internet kiosks in airports; sometimes I can kill the metering program and leave it open for free use to anyone who passes by w/o having to have it activated by a merchant or inserting cash
If I remember right, I could sniff the login password from a TCP/IP exchange between SQL client and server and the password was also just a letter substitution. It's been a few years, but I just sent it something like 'aaaaa' then 'bbbbb' and looked for the difference in packet - the change was the same-length as my test password and repeated the same character the exact # of times.

Is today bizzarro day?
Looks like someone just discovered the feathered eraser

Oh, god.. The memORIES! AUGH!!!

QuickDraw is an add-on/extension in OS 6, and macpaint works just fine without it on my SE
Yeah, it is quite weird that X-Rays weren't visible in "visible light"... seeing how the visible light spectrum doesn't even remotely include x-ray...

You obviously don't know the gloriousness of Man-Faye.

At what point in the video is it actually working?

This was on ./, I remember reading about this years ago. This method had been used as far back as the 50's if I remember...
*yawn*
I've regretted my decision ever since they invented free money.
Forgive me for being a stupid US'ian, but isn't Hawaii is part of the US? Where Alberta is part of Canada?
You're right! It seems some timing baseline is grossly miscalculated on the initial load.
(and now that I can see which ep this is, it's one of my fav - I've have the MP3 of that on my playlist for years!)
Same here with firefox 3.6.3 + Windows (vista). crawwwlllll
the adblock filter for hiding elements containing the word 'kdawson' is pretty effective

I second this. I'm running it on my BeagleBoard.org

Only when you connect to it deeply and awaken it.
