Well, compared to what comes from Handset Makers, and Google itself, Cyanogen's Mod is pretty rockin version. The fact that Samsung hired the guy says something about that company looking forward. I just wish their phones were built to last all the way through a two year contract. I'd pay an extra $100 for that feature alone.
I just wish Handset makers would realize that we don't want locked bootloaders on what is supposed to be "OPEN" platform. The whole point of Android was that it was Open.
I just wish they had a way to give us the key to unlock the phone. People are doing it anyways, might as well let us. And CyanogenMod proves the value of this development model over their private builds.
RFC doesn't require it, I do. The RFC allows open relays too, doesn't mean it is good practice. I would not consider an open relay to be a properly configured server, would you?
If you post it to the Internet, it is there for anyone and everyone to see, even if you don't want it to be. This includes ALL websites. There is no privacy on the Internet. The sooner you realize this and forget your delusions about "Privacy on Public Web Servers" the better off you will be.
Reverse DNS simply identifies poorly or misconfigured EMAIL servers and DNS entries. Even if legitimate servers, it indicates a level of administration that is simply lazy. It takes five minutes to configure the HELO and DNS records to be the same if you know what you're doing.
So, if you can't be bothered with PROPER server administration, please don't blame me for rejecting your email coming from your domain. I don't trust you or the job you're doing, as you've announced you are either too lazy or incompetent to do your job right.
It works, just not the way you wish it works. HELO = DNS or you don't get to send me email.
Most people buy real books over ebooks because real books (paperbacks) are still cheaper (less expensive) at Costco (or other place) than the same ebooks are at B&N or Amazon. Hell, even some books are cheaper at B&N brick store than an ebook from B&N online.
Then you can resell (or trade) those real books in for credit at local used books stores, making the value even greater.
My mom has a Nook, and never has used it for this reason alone.
Actually, a better solution is to have standards that vary depending on the need. Leaving all the oil in the water is worse than putting back water that has removed 90% of the oil. In this case, declare it a "disaster" and allow any and all cleanup technology that reaches 90% oil reduction to dump the water back into the ocean.
Anything else is just cutting off one's nose to spite their face.
The problem is not that people have public lives, it is that the INTERNET greatly expands the scope of what is "public" while greatly diminishing the scope of what is "private.
"vigilante militias" usually said by people who think government should have all the power, not the people... unless they are protesting Wall Street, then they think the government shouldn't have any power... until health care is mentioned and then government should have all the power.. until....
As I've said before, stopping a crime in progress is NOT vigilantism. I would hope we all try to stop crimes in progress, be it a street fight or a little girl getting kidnapped. Vigilantism is specifically acting as Police, Judge and Jury, serving VENGEANCE.
This isn't vigilantism. "any person who takes the law into his or her own hands, as by avenging a crime. "
This is not avenging (judge, jury), this isn't even crime prevention. This is people stopping actual crimes in progress. If you try to break up a fight, is that vigilantism? If you stop a robbery is that vigilantism? If you stop a little girl from being kidnapped?
People like you who confuse stopping a crime in action with vigilantism are just stupid idiots who need to be shouted down and humiliated for being idiots.
Yeah, because three guys beating one guy to a pulp is totally equal to a senile old lady out maybe $400 bucks. You don't have any sense of proportion, do you?
Yes, you just made the two equal, regardless of your intentions.
I'm seeing a regression of webpage, that is once again optimized for less data needed to display content worth viewing, due to Mobile Markets. However to view those pages you must be displaying the proper User Agent String, which strips things like "FLASH" (iPhones, iPads) and Java applets (which don't run very well on Phones). giving you just the meat. Which is wonderful, IMHO.
A photo (singular) is not objective, but photos can be objective, if they (plural) give a complex and more complete view. A photograph that is properly framed by the photographer doesn't tell any story except that which the photographer wants to tell. However, if you take a look at most of the examples given in the video, the real perspective is one that is further away from the "framed" picture, and exposes the framing as a farce.
That is the problem with today's photo journalism is that it colludes with itself to keep the farce from being framed. Think about it this way, how much more sympathetic are you because you see the "struggle" from the "framed" pictures rather than seeing the real picture? The goal is to build sympathy, which goes BEYOND just telling the story.
Obama is certainly the same level as Bush, completely incompetent, just that it manifests itself differently. YOu may think he is an improvement, but I'm looking around and don't see any improvement at all. We're still in Afgahistan, Iraq and now Libya. Gitmo is still open. Holder has armed the Mexican drug cartel who is ready to invade the southern boarder. The Savior of the world cannot get anyone to stop laughing at him long enough to do anything useful on the world stage.
And when you're done explaining these away, you can start talking about the Economy where the ONLY solution Obama has offered is "Tax the rich" scheme. He's not actually suggesting anything that will improve the economy. I'm half suspecting he will try to nationalize the banking industry in the next two years.
And if Bush was involved in Solyndra type "investment", the left would be asking for his head on a platter. But since that was "solar" crap, Obama gets a pass for "trying". But then we find out Nancy Pelosi's kin is involved in the next Solar Loan scandal that has barely hit the news. Yawn, I guess that is too boring for you lefties. You're to busy going after (R) fat cats that you ignore the (D) fat cats, rather than deal with ALL the fat cats as one.
1) Tea party people aren't blocking traffic, and generally obey the requests of the police, OccupyWall Street people are there protesting "the man" of which they view the police. If they acted more like Tea Party events, they wouldn't have this problem.
2) Occupy Wall street hasn't protested Obama, and is directly targeting Republicans. While it may not target Democrats to get elected, it certainly is left wing enough not to cross the line of running their own candidates against (D) party incumbents.. Tea Party got its fame by running their own candidates against established Republicans.
#1 is a bunch of noise signifying nothing. It doesn't solve any problems, specifically with anything that caused the economic problems we're currently in. They may be prudent measures, but are largely ineffectual in addressing the specifics we have here, namely Credit Default Swap, and Derivatives. Or bad loans made in bad faith by people with no intention of ever being able to pay them off, except in a get rich scheme.
#2 Good luck with that. Corporations have the very same Congress (both parties) in their grasp and control. There is only one way that you can effect this kind of change, and that is revoke PAC status for all. Individuals can contribute to parties and to specific races to which they are entitled to vote. ALL other donations to campaigns are outlawed. Restore the rights of the individual.
#3 We don't live in a democracy, we live in a democratic republic, with courts. THE biggest problem we have, is nobody is talking about liberties and how they have been trounced upon by "Group" rights laws and decisions.
#4 "Fair" is never fair. You can tax all the rich 100% of all their money, and it still wouldn't be enough to cover our expenses. Fair Share is "I want free health care, let the rich pay for it, that is fair". Closing loopholes isn't enough either, but it is a start. Taxing transactions (corporate shell games) is the ONLY way to solve offshoring and Double Dutch Accounting schemes. I'm in favor of taxing money leaving the country, and giving breaks for transferring money into the country.
#5 Congress completely revamp corporate charter law, to remove legal entity from definition, and leave only "economic" entity. Legal Entity dilutes the liberties of individuals by necessity. I'd also institute changes to the securities trading rules, and tax all transactions based on how long the asset (stock, bond etc) was held. Short term holdings would be taxed at a higher rate than those held long term. Hold a stock or bond long enough and there will be no tax on selling it. All new rules and regulations should be designed to reward long term investing, and discourage short term "gambling".
Let me ask you, are you at least somewhat miffed that Obama's wife and kids got an African Safari on Tax Payer Dollars? How about that the daughters were listed as "senior staff"? If this was BUSH most of those protesters would be going ape shit crazy. I've asked several friends who are supporters of Obama about this, except I said it was "Bush" and they were "I knew he was a crook", when I told them it was Obama, they accused me of being a racist. Go figure.
The problem here is the left is unwilling to eat its own kind. Obama is no better than Bush was, and yet he remains free of their ire.What how this becomes "blame the Republicans" (note, I'm not a Republican) rather than "Blame the two party system that caused this". Both parties are equally yoked, as neither party does anything when they have total and complete control and can fix anything.
So, wake me when the "Impeach Obama" t-shirts start showing up.
Slashdot Mirror
And these protesters want to get rid of capital. Dumbass indeed.
YES!
But only good looking people. Fat Ugly people are just there because they are pervs
This is the same as the story of the Golems , so nothing new.

I just wish they had a way to give us the key to unlock the phone. People are doing it anyways, might as well let us. And CyanogenMod proves the value of this development model over their private builds.
Because, they are already trained by DVDs, Xboxes, iPods and Computers, so nothing new here.
It is the other way around. Cyanogen is the user's name, CyanogenMod is the Modification of Android he built.

Harry Reid once quipped that the US doesn't have GPS like the rest of the world. He's the guy running the Senate right now.

Lobbying should be illegal, at least in its current form. Definitely PAC and Corporate lobbying, as well as foreign entities.
Campaign finance laws currently support incumbents by limiting the funds of others can raise.
I'm against matching funds of any sort, as that only limits campaign funding (see second sentence), virtually eliminating third party candidates.
Regarding the last three statements:
1) Tea party people aren't blocking traffic, and generally obey the requests of the police, OccupyWall Street people are there protesting "the man" of which they view the police. If they acted more like Tea Party events, they wouldn't have this problem.
2) Occupy Wall street hasn't protested Obama, and is directly targeting Republicans. While it may not target Democrats to get elected, it certainly is left wing enough not to cross the line of running their own candidates against (D) party incumbents.. Tea Party got its fame by running their own candidates against established Republicans.
3)George Soros, which is kind of ironic since he is part of the people Occupy Wall Street is protesting. Let me know when OWS starts protesting Soros, okay? http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/9269-big-soros-money-linked-to-occupy-wall-street
