I think OP's point is that by purchasing a device from a manufacturer who uses CarrierIQ, you are supporting their investment into licensing the CarrierIQ software.
If you go to a Ford dealership and buy a Fiesta, do you think Ford care if you strip the seats out and replace them with a bench? Nope, you still love Ford, and all the stuff Ford gave you.
A phone / laptop battery catching fire is not a significant risk to the plane. The cabin might fill with noxious smoke, but then again there's those handy masks in the overhead panels which pump out nice, clean oxygen in the event of depressurisation.
I'd recommend putting out the fire with one of the extinguishers in the clearly marked overhead lockers before pumping out pure oxygen into the cabin, though. Drench that sucker. Bonus points if, in your zealous efforts to put out the fire, you accidentally fill the lungs of the guy who tried to blow up the plane with fire retardant foam.
Hell, I might even suggest this for my own "Slashdot reading"station (back to the door, and I my colleagues don't appreciate how useful pseudointellectual discussions on morality and armchair politiking are to my job).
Jesus, buy a netbook. £200-300 (half the price of the phone in your hand) and you get a keyboard with keys you can actually press (albeit not as well as a full size keyboard) and a much better screen to work on.
The thought of anyone trying to do actual work on a smartphone boggles my mind.
Jewish religious courts may well exist, but that doesn't make them legally binding. That first link from the BBC highlights this; The couple must get a civil divorce as well as a religious one in order for the separation to be recognised by the state. Further, if either party disagrees to the case being heard in the Jewish religious court, it's simply not heard there. They can't force a trial.
Re: (2) ISPs in cooperation with rights holders can decide between themselves when they're able to pursue court action because that's the due process of the courts. An aggrieved party begins court proceedings against those they accuse. You know... You think someone has committed a crime against you, so you tell the police / sue them. Nothing untoward here!
Just replying to your question; Not read the article myself.
Privacy filters prevent viewing the screen from other than directly in front of it. This solution means nobody can see what's on the screen at all unless they wear the glasses. It just looks like a blank white page with a lightbulb behind it.
This glasses-based solution seems much more effective, especially for those who already wear glasses. Adding a polarised coating would cost pennies.
Wearing polarised sunglasses indoors is kind of obvious. For someone who works with sensitive information, yet is in a publicly accessible area, this is a genuinely great idea.
Hell, I might even suggest this for my own workstation (back to the door, frequently working on sensitive data). I wear glasses anyway; It wouldn't be difficult to fit the film to the lenses I already require.
Cool and clever hack. But it assumes that what you're displaying on the screen is more embarrassing than being seen wearing 3D glasses. An easier solution would be to just never let anyone into your lair.But then you'd have to hoover the Cheeto crumbs from under your Command Throne yourself.
Since Vista (which I'm forced to use at work), you've been able to see the windows you're using in the task switcher, and you can click the window you wish to use.
It sounds like they bound the window key to Alt +Tab. I know you say it "beats the snot" out of it, but I don't see a difference from your description.
That's wholly rubbish. The stipulation is that the opposition has no other agenda than providing misinformation and propaganda instead of increasing the general knowledge.
If the opposition is providing scientific fact, based upon observational evidence, without including hyperbole or personal agenda, why on $Deity's earth would you exclude that from your studies? The only reason is wilful ignorance; Not something I want in a medical professional.
If you're having to release patches which are serious enough to have the customer demanding a fix RIGHT NOW!!1one then your coding was probably half-assed to begin with.
There are ROMs which never had it installed in the first place. Any Android Open Source Project (AOSP) ROM has been cooked from scratch, as opposed to a dump and strip of a carrier ROM. CarrierIQ has never been anywhere near it. The most popular choice is obviously Cyanogenmod (Which I currently run), but there are others.
Nope, he's saying that you'd have to perform some statistical analysis on the DES keyspace to find the 10,000 "most random" keys, and check those first.
It should be apparent, but they don't do this anymore. AES-256's keyspace is sufficiently large to not require safeguards against "bad" keys.

Dude, it's "losing". It's hard to come across sounding educated when you can't spell.
I could care less about what you think of my spelling.

surely a graphics programmer could coax an Nvidia/Ati card to give the same effect ?
It's been done. See an example here

Completely off-topic, but indentation of the first line of paragraphs has been abandoned in favour of a line separation. I prefer double /.
