Then create a "passkey" with keepass or something of the similar to use for your security questions. They don't really restrict what your response can be.
And any system worth its salt (crypto-hashing joke) won't allow that many attempts against any external or internal authenticator and will NEVER expose its password hashes.

Are they suppose to just expose the passwords as plain text files then?
"Of course it's very easy to beat Fusion with discrete parts, if it weren't the morons designing the discrete parts would be fired."
You're the idiot. Of course they could have put AMD's best designs into a Fusion part at the same time they were developing them for discrete use. But they didn't, and thus produced a toy-computer chip instead of a world-beater.
The HD 6990, currently their best GPU, is thicker than my netbook, and uses more power than what my 350W PSU could provide.
How are they supposed to fit a 12" video card, that uses around 400 watts, along with a cpu that uses 140w into a single package designed for laptops/netbooks? This is an unreasonable goal. A laptop power brick is usually 90w, which is 83% less power.
Both of those would also provide way more processing power than what their large target audience wants/needs. Going with a midrange CPU and and low-midrange GPU is exactly what *most* people want so they can browse facebook, watch flash videos, and play games on the go.
The average consumer isn't mining bitcoins with their spare cycles on 3 cross fired HD 6990's. Even on my 3ish year old laptop (t2060 @ 1.6GHz), having 20 tabs open on chrome, a few processes running on a terminal, libre office, irc client, and a flash game (on linux) I use around 20% of my available CPU. Still plenty of room for me to do more. The only time I manage to max it out is when compiling things or mining bitcoins.
You need to buy a phone from Virgin. Virgin uses Sprint's CDMA network, which (at least in the US) does not take advantage of SIM cards. Virgin's LG Optimus V is a very nice smartphone, though -- Android 2.2, fast, stock, etc.
You should really consider rooting it and putting CM7 on it from http://forum.androidcentral.com/optimus-v-rooting-roms-hacks/61901-rom-wip-alpha-aospcmod-aosp-2-3-4-cm7-gingerbread.html . Then you can give it a little overclock and underclock to help get better battery life and enjoy how much better CM7 is in comparison to the stock rom. Just be sure to make a back up of your phone's stock rom incase you ever need to flash back to that to have your number changed or something of the similar.
Please stop insulting animals of any species. There is no species of animal worthy of being insulted by being compared to Ballmer. Not even a rat, cockroach, mosquito, or tapeworm deserves to be insulted in this way.
I prefer what cyanogenmod lets you do. With CM you can setup your own "pattern lock" to any shape and any length that you want. When your screen is locked you only see a blank space and have to guess the shape and direction it was drawn.... good luck:)
Practically everybody that is going to be writing mobile applications is going to have a cell phone.
My current cell phone is an Audiovox 8610 from Virgin Mobile USA, which doesn't run Android, and the phone you recommended (Nexus S) costs $549.99. Can you recommend anything cheaper? Virgin Mobile USA carries the Samsung Intercept and LG Optimus V; are those any good?
I'm currently using the Optimus V from VirginMobile, and it works wonderfully. It was a little hassle rooting since you need to install several SDKs and what not. But still fairly easy ans straight forward. Make sure you get your number ported over and anything that will involve contacting VirginMobile (like activation) before rooting your phone and installing something like Cyanogenmod. I made that mistake, but it was still just as simple as backing a full backup of the CM install, reflashing the backup I made of the stock "rom" (always make a backup before flashing a new rom, just in case something goes wrong) doing what I needed to in the special menus of the stock rom and flashing back to CM.
If you absolutely must have a physical keyboard, go for the Intercept, otherwise go for the Optimus since it is a much better buy in terms of hardware.
Don't expect to have a Nexus S level of quality with the phone though. Some games will lag and other things might not be as fast you may see on higher end phones. When I got mine, I went into thinking "this is just another phone", making everything else it can do with android gravy. Angry Birds is playable, along with mostly every other game I have tried and it is really nice being able to tether to my phone for 3G internet along with getting emails on the phone.
The funny thing is, iOS outnumbers Android by well over 2:1. There are over 200 million iOS devices out there now, over 100 million of which are iPhones alone. Android might be a lightning rod for malware, but it's not because of its numbers.
Think what that percentage would be if they supported Linux, too.
Well they do already support the roku which runs on linux, and they have several android (which uses the linux kernel) devices that can stream netflix now.
You left out the word "well". It needs to serve both needs well. My smartphone already is (theoretically) capable of pretty much everything this device could do AND it makes phone calls. In time your phone probably will be able to plug into a much larger monitor. Furthermore Windows was very much NOT designed to be used on a 4 inch screen. I've got really good eyesight and can't imaging doing anything productive on it that my smartphone can't already do.

There is already a smart phone (Motorola Atrix) out there designed to be docked into a netbook shell, and you could just as easily get a monitor with HDMI and plug it into that.
I have never had this issue with any flavors of Linux though(Slackware, Red Hat, Mandrake, and Ubuntu). I've had several that were going for close to a decade and it was hardware issues that brought them to a halt. I also had a BSD box on a UPS that had 12 years of up-time until I shut it down to replace the fans and clean the dust out of it. That was a year ago and it's still chugging along.
.
Did you not do any major kernel updates through those 12 years then?
They would be able to do more than what these Chrome OS notebooks will every be able to do.
These Chrome OS notebooks are going for a different audience who only cares about email, web, "cloud" things, and simple games. They aren't meant to take over laptops and mobile workstations.

Zero moving parts, here we come.
Let me know when we can get fans that don't need blades. No, not that hoop thing. It has blades in the base.
What's wrong with using water/mineral oil cooling?
Just require everyone to pay with BitCoins!
I thought it might have been calculated on an old pentium

I think the Vogon would be appropriate.

Why is 2.7.xx skipped? Does he not like odd numbers, even so why is 2.7 just skipped? That all just seems a little odd to me...

Citation needed.
With Chrome, you enter searches in ... the address bar.
While that is partially correct, it is not completely correct. Chrome calls that the "Omnibar".
And who will decide which app to include? Microsoft? What if they decide that any free alternative to MS products should not be there?
Then the user should be allowed to install at their own risk, but still be aware that they might be downloading malware or a virus.
Think what that percentage would be if they supported Linux, too.

Microsoft doesn't offer *free* upgrades to their next version of the their server OS though either...

But his point still stands of the atom of being at least 1/3 slower than the 3GHz Pentium
