So the first defense of greylisting has been defeated (I'm not seeing this in my logs though). But that still leaves the second advantage gained by it: by the time they get back to your smtpd they hopefully will be blacklisted.
Yes, I need a smartphone, but not for making calls (the phone app is the least used app on my device). I need the always on data connection for work, the smartphone replaces a bulky USB GSM modem. Though laptops got integrated GSM modems some time ago, a smartphone with a decent keyboard can replace a laptop in many cases and is a lot more portable.
The plain text stored passwords and the card details are not really comparable. The plain text passwords for certain services have to be unlocked at boot to make these services function, they have to be kept open for background use even the phone interface might be locked (just like the home dir). The card details can be kept encrypted at all times except when actually being used, which should always happen interactively.
My guess you are looking for a pad and not a full tablet!

First: I'm not living in the US. I'm not paying 100 USD per month for TV, I personally think the 10-15 EUR/month is more than enough (for about the 50 channels in my favorites, 30 are FTA and not even all channels from the paid package are in my favorites). Second: I spend about 250 EUR to get away from cable, this saves me about 11 EUR/month. This investment was 4 years ago, so it saved me 528 EUR . But I recently spend some of these savings to switch to HDTV broadcasts (350 EUR investment and a slight raise in the subscription fee). Third: channels providing irritating programming get ignored. There are channels broadcasting only irrelevant programming (like all the real live soaps on Discoveries), fucked up aspect ratios/cropped content, e.g. 4:3|16:9 -> 14:9 (Comedy Central). I'm not aware of channels using splash ads.
There is a lot of bad/irrelevant stuff on, but having a decent DVR puts you back in charge.
A digital cable channel or satellite transponder will carry up to about 38Mbit/s. A single DVB-C/T/S tuner will allow capturing all TV broadcasts on the same transponder/channel.
That is not TV its fault, your cable company is to blame.
But my local cable provider has the same problem, either use their proprietary solution or leave. FttH TV is analog only or again proprietary. DVB-T is low res and over compressed. So I left and went to basic dish (10EUR/month), put some DVB-S pci cards (50-75 EUR per card) in the PC hooked up to the TV (used for XBMC til then), installed VDR and some (illegal) software for CAM emulation to use my (legal) smartcard. GUI is simple and streams perfectly and is WAF compiant (though a dreambox or other enigma device might suite some people better if you don't already have a PC connected). Except for news almost nothing will be watched live, record anything of interest and watch any time/any place.
Just turn of the radios (aka airplane mode). Or put a PIN on your SIM, reboot and don't enter the PIN if you want to be sure your cellphone manufacturer turns of the GSM radio. The paranoid can always remove the SIM card and put the device in a faraday cage for the appropriate signals.
So show us your numbers, the Reuters links below mentions a 50% Android vs. 19% Iphone on the global smartphone market. I guess you are comparing IOS devices to Android devices, which is not the scope of this article, so while your numbers may be true, if you ever tell us which, they might be irrelevant.
No, with (some) Android phones you can replace the experience the manufacturer/telco chose for you. I like the plain Android experience instead of the Sense crap that came with my Desire Z. The Desire Z was the only reasonable unlocked phone with a keyboard at that the time (alternative is the T-Mobile G2, same hardware other (branded) ROM). So I put Cyanogen on it and had an almost perfect upgrade from the G1 (which has a better keyboard (5 lines instead of only 4)). The other people I know with other HTC Desire phones simply remained with the standard Sense interface. You CAN do whatever you like.
The problem you describe doesn't exist, unless you are thinking non metric. Recipes and measurement cups are both in easy units. 5ml (teaspoon),15 ml (tablespoon), 300g, 325ml, 700ml
The same for buying lengths of stuff, you either buy something in 1/2, 1, 3, 5 or 10m and cut it down to required length if it not possible to order custom lengths/sizes.
The "folk units" have been converted to metric a long time ago. A dutch ounce is 100gram (pre metric: 1/16 pound), a pound is 500gram (pre metric: 430-460gram). A pint (beer) is 250ml where a standard glass is 150ml. This conversion happend atleast twice (unfied futch measurements in 1820, and in 1875 the switch to S.I.).
Well I'm running systems a lot smaller but still for a fairly decent amount of corpotate customers. Though overall spam has been down since sep-oct last year (to about 1/4 of that time). Last couple of weeks there have been huge spikes in attempted deliveries, but 90% is stopped by using simple mail sanity checks (like a wellformed HELO) and DNS blacklists. The other 10% is stopped by greylisting.

The impact will be about zero, replace sun-java with openjdk if you need java.

Looks nice, but I've been wondering what the display quality is of this thing? Viewing angle, contrast and colour?

So if you want a pad instead, take a look at the Meego "supported" devices:

Beware of the Advent Vega pads, it's a nice platform but the screen is absolute shit. But maybe a poor viewing angle doesn't affect you that much.

So how is TV broken again? Did someone take away Tivo or slingbox?
International or Investment, it depends on whether you believe tiff.net or tiff.org.

Using cat effectively doubles the required IO operations.
A solution to your "left arrow to something":
arrow up
ctrl-arrow left
ctrl-w
Looks very entertaining, will make a great fit for an old unix admin/friend and cat lover.

There are client certificates in use for some gov related sites. These have to be reissued in a secure way.

Recipes and measurement cups are both in easy units.
5ml (teaspoon),15 ml (tablespoon), 300g, 325ml, 700ml
For example:
http://www.ah.nl/recepten/voor-elke-dag?lp_sortProperty=shoppingListPopular
and pick any recipe and look under Ingredienten. All units are combinations of fractions of 10 and 4. For most ingredients it doesn't matter is you are off by 5 or 10 ml/gram.
The same for buying lengths of stuff, you either buy something in 1/2, 1, 3, 5 or 10m and cut it down to required length if it not possible to order custom lengths/sizes.

My telco uses NAT, idle connection still takes resources from the connection tracker.
If it's running just use tar/rsync.
