That seems a bit excessive when a simple one-time usage of the included "passwd" utility will suffice. Srsly though, jailbreaking utilities should be pestering users to change their password from the default because this is only scaring less-knowledgeable folk into thinking Jailbreak == viruses
Unless of course the author of a particular jailbreak utility WANTS to compromise the target units.
You are out of luck. I would suggest leaving Mom's basement and getting a little sun and perhaps actually talking to some girls. You'll get results faster that way. Trust me; it works. It does require the Social Interaction plugin for your Operating System, but that is freely available and has been for millennia.
Everything runs in the cloud? Hard disks are banned? Wow, they are aggressively pursuing their thirst for all of the world's data. No thank you.
Exactly this. Google's entire business model is based on data mining. Allowing people to sequester their data on hard drives where Google cannot access them (legally) is contrary to their aims. I'm not implying anything sinister, although I have my own reservations, but it's exactly why they won't allow hard drives.
It's the line that always works. A lot of us live in places that still have very poor cellular signals. Most adults have landlines so I'll assume you're young. I'm not knocking your choice, but don't assume that everyone can do without one.
Sorry but that's just utter BS. History is filled with examples of people who knew each other going to war against each other. The US Civil War is one good example, as is almost every other Civil War in history. The American Revolution is another. Knowing someone doesn't mean you won't kill them if you are given the chance and situation to do so.
Ah yes the heresy of 'complaining' (he wasn't really) about Apple on slashdot. We can complain about M$ of SCO or IBM or Oracle or [fill in the blank]...but heaven FORBID anyone say anything negative about Apple.
As an interested layman who counts cosmology as a 'hobby', I keep feeling that the String Theories as well as M-Theory are somehow flawed for the very reason that they are not parsimonious and introduce more questions than they seem to answer. I also keep feeling that at some point some brilliant young cosmologist is going to come up with a theory more elegant and 'simple' by an order of magnitude that renders them obsolete.
That has absolutely NOTHING to do with it. The fact remains that many ordinary citizens are seeing 50% of their retirement funds go POOF overnight. What % of the total pie that is is meaningless to those people.
Most people ARE Wall Street whether they know it or not. At least, anyone with a 401K, pension, or other retirement fund. The fat cats at the top are getting bailed out but THEY are not Wall Street. America is Wall Street these days.

Actually there is a Tor-like project that seeks to enable Girlfriend 2.0 while allowing Wife 1.0 to remain unaware. We need your help! Join us!

"What's a "landline"? :-)"

Water vapor is a more potent greenhouse gas than CO2. Talk about feel good marketing ploys!
Yep. Elections are coming up and I would bet even money that he's up this year. He's just trying to get some votes by grandstanding.
Don't worry you've got some time. They probably won't reach full power until sometime in late 2012...
it has nothing to do with silicone or any of that.
It has nothing to do with fake breasts? That's not a surprise. It really doesn't have anything to do with silicon either.

What difference does that make as long as they are good citizens? It's a shame that bigotry is still alive and well this far into the 21st Century.
But it's Apple! I thought everything from Apple was considered magically delicious here. Now I'm confused :(
Funny how much of Slashdot lambastes vendor lock in of handsets unless it's Apple who is making said handsets.
It is homo sapiens neanderthalis because they WERE human. Same number of chromosomes too so offspring between the two would be fertile.
Pedantry is so ugly when it's ill applied ;)
But...but it runs on an iPhone, it MUST be good!
You must be new here.
Besides, I'd believe a release version of DNF a LOT more than I'd believe they'll ever finish Hurd.
That's exactly what it reads like. Not sure why you were modded 'Off Topic' other than the ravening horde of mods on crack.
He isn't gloating. He isn't saying they've beaten the pirates. He's saying the game is selling well despite them, and it is. There's a big difference.

Maybe because /. is a US based site, and it's not April 2nd anywhere in the US yet?
I'm in my early 40's and I get hit up by headhunters/recruiters constantly. Many companies want experienced professionals.

Wake me up when they make a nice, expandable, mid ranged desktop class Mac. I still think that's the big gap in their lineup.
