I've used "Cro Magnon" several places, so one could assume it's the same person (especially if I make a referrence to one of the other sites). However, on at least one site, "Cro Magnon" is used by someone else, and my username is something entirely different.
Also, I'm on plenty of sites with totally different usernames.
One of the systems I used to work on had password requirements that were a real PITA. After it rejected several attempts to reset the pw, I finally found one it accepted, and I would NOT have wanted to say that word out loud in mixed company. But it WAS easy to remember, just by thinking about the frustration.
I have one system that does use a admin or random password rather than one I choose, and another with such strict requirements that I ended up using a random-generator. Both words ended up getting written down, as there's no way in he!! I'd remember those.
The first Christmas after I got my iPhone, the office party was somewhere out of the way, and I checked the iPhone for directions. It's directions would have gotten me there, but I didn't like the route it suggested and tried my own route. It was quicker and simpler than the iPhone route.
Half my FB friends are people I added from another online forum we belong to. The other half are HS friends I knew 30 years ago. One of them has a picture that I think is two human beings. I've been told that it's her & her 8 y/o son, but I can't tell that from the pic, let alone recognize her. Another has recently died her hair, and looks a lot like another who hasn't. My own picture was taken with an iPhone is bad light; I bet most of my friends couldn't recognize me from THAT.
You don't need a PayPal account to get phished. Awhile back, I got an email informing me of a problem with my account and they would clear it up if I entered my acct details. I was all set to do that when I realized - I don't HAVE a PP account!

I always thought it was "all intensive porpoises". Though, why people keep bringing dolphins into the conversation is beyond me.
Yes, it does. But I like my money boring.
Is it disabled? I assumed that they still tracked you. They just wouldn't unlock your car or tell you where you were when you got lost.
Agreed! I've tried Dropbox on W7, OSX, and Ubuntu, and to quote Apple, it JustWorks (tm). Don't know what iCloud offers in comparison.
You misunderstood. They didn't say SL devs were going to revolt. They said SL devs were revolting. There is a difference.
I'm seriously tempted to imitate that congressman. "Yes, that's me. Just not the face".
Exactly! SSN is too widely known to be a decent password. It would like letting anyone who knew I was "Cro magnon" access my slashdot stuff.

Facebook Credits? Facebook Credits are no good out here! I want something real.

They might coo at the Mac, but they still swear at that !@#$ one-button mouse!
These days, the victims don't have any money to steal. Just debts, and most thieves don't want to steal that!
Windows actually runs better on an Intel Mac than it does on a Dell or HP. Odd, but true.
Even at this rate, that won't be until late 2012.
Or they could just call them Firefox 2011-A, B, C, & D. That would give them a version number that makes sense, AND is the highest. :)

Virgos are sceptical about such things.
I'm pretty sure the smarter crooks DON'T post evidence on FB. But you don't read about them; you just read about the dumb ones that DO.
What about the people who still have 1 year 11 months left on their iPhone contract?
Yeah, as soon as I saw the name of the asteroid, I got a mental image of MacGuyver complaining that he could see his house from it.

I just can't see this working.

Here's one example. If I go down my usual highway faster than 55, I'm speeding. If I'm slower than 60, I'm obstructing traffic.
I seriously doubt that there would be any problem with FSJ. The only problem would be if he tried to pass himself off as RSJ.
