They're pretty clear about core apps and add on apps on their site. Outside of the 6 core services I wouldn't count on anything to stay (I suspect Picassa is bulletproof though).
I agree with everything you said except for the online being more vulnerable. the vast majority of online transactions never touch a person who can see your whole number. I do personally prefer to use bill me later, paypal, or one of the processing options that take you to the merchant services account, because there is no guarantee on a random site, but I still think it is far safer than a restaurant. Personally I try to spend all my money by CC and pay it off every month, so that if stuff goes tits up, I still have access to a months pay, and my new money won't be taken, but the system appears to be safer to me than carrying a couple days worth of cash, and online appears to be safer in person (my two fraudulent charges were one I left behind in a restaurant, one single charge at that restaurant. The other time my number was taken but not card, two purcchases were made from my zip code, one to a porn network, and the other for an assload of skype credit, no idea when the number was taken, but the porn site intanstly refunded my money when I called the number left on the line-item, and for the skype I filed with the bank, they refunded within 2 weeks (and for those 2 weeks I spent out of my real money).
also, you're bank sucks. I've had fraud twice (one lost card, and one I assume restaurant employee), both times were quick and easy to sort put, though the one time did take a while to get my money back, though it was just credit I didn't need anyway. I never use my real money card at such places.
Also, there's probably a lot of static IPs with ISPs that allocate a network, we had a/30 with a broadcast, a network, a gateway, and our IP adress (I did do the math right on/30 I think here). That's 25% of the addresses reachable by IP from the internet (maybe 50%, I can't talk for the Comcast gateway). We now have a/29 with 5 usable, of which we use 3, so that's 3/8ths, but we needed the extra two for liability reasons.
A lot of routers deny ping requests by default too.
Yes, but the type that fall into him vs her and he's always a lazy manchild and she's always a nag, are the market for the app (well those that think the premise is funny and watch King of Queens).
You don't necessarily need the fast charge in a driveway, just a slow charge.
Also, I can speak from recent experience the daily (non-economy) parking at Dulles airport does just this. There are 6 or so reserved spaces, and on average 3 of them are occupied when i go there.
My R60 had an option to re-install from recovery, and every piece of crapware (such as the completely worthless think tools and search tools, and outdated browser plugins etc) was a checkbox to choose to install (I chose only the CD burning software), my T400 lacked that option on re-install, and I stopped buying thinkpads from then on.
He didn't take a loose hard drive from at&t, he sent requests to the server using a standard communication method. It's equivalent to pretexting, not theft.
Google treats chat that way now though. When they started circles, they stopped auto adding, and limited chat to people in your circles I believe (i forget the specifics, but it got stricter).
expecting that to be the average is elitest. I can't possibly be decent at HVAC, car repair, plumbing, construction, computing, accounting, and countless other skills, but I interact with them all as much as the average computer user interacts with a computer. Once something is part of day to day life, It's reasonable to leave the expertise to the experts. Not even expertise, not everyone even needs to be a power user.
It's not as bad as it used to be, but when I purchased redhat (back when one could go to the store and buy it), some random guy sneared and said "i wish people would use slackware, then you really have to know Linux"
I see here plenty of comments about this vs that leaning the same way.

Snapping a photo of a card is quick and easy.

To be fair, they uploaded files and used the resources of the devices.
Talking about it is super ballsy. I personally am curious what the density f used addresses is though, as we're running low.
There are offices in the church that only a man can hold, that's simple fact and denying it is akin to denying the existence of air.
The rightness of that fact is a different issue than the factualness of it.

I'm willing to bet the Ubuntu will allow you to run X the same way it allows you to run KDE now, but I don't relly know.
All of the QML love from them lately would lead to believe that they will indeed port to Mir.
As is reading superfluous words in the summary, and they take up space.
by the end of the summary it was obvious that it was that low priced vr thing on kickstarter that's been mentioned before.
Pretexting on a phone call is not a crime (everywhere).
Someone doing the same thing by social engineering isn't a criminal, why is this?
he didn't break any existing defense, nor make a malformed request.
But the info is being actively given.

Interestingly I had an issue with vnc yesterday.
the "window" borders of InDesign CS3 were not rendered, instead showing through.
this happened with any of the option I chose on VNC.
when connecting, they briefly displayed before immediately disappearing.
Polygamy isn't illegal, unless you want the government involved in the marriage.
Or, I read the summary, and saw that this particular conversation had diverted, and responded to the conversation at hand.
Because netflix can't credibly ignore a market crushing ms, but can do so ignoring a market that may grow, but hasn't.
Or the yellow is too short.
This is what happens when you don't.

Well, it accesses my email, and documents I'm drafting with collaboration. It also saves credit card info (i think, not mine).
chrome fell, so I personally find this interesting.
my email is worth a decent amount at times, and there are people who have far more valuable emails.

Ever since PCI and hardware autodetect were intrinsic to linux It's been like that everywhere.
Back in the day, redhat was a lot easier to setup, especially sound.
It's not as bad as it used to be, but when I purchased redhat (back when one could go to the store and buy it), some random guy sneared and said "i wish people would use slackware, then you really have to know Linux"
