It's javascript. Take it and port it. If you know any amount of javascript at all, porting an extension is relatively trivial. Either that, or convert it to be a Greasemonkey UserScript.
Just for the sake of clarity - christians believe in the judeo-christian "God". Christians view this as one personhood with 3 distinct "views" if you will. He can be present in either his Father form, the Son (human) form, or in the form of the Holy Ghost.
Not 3 separate beings but three ways of being seen.
Is there no clinical use for the experience the doctors gain by doing an implant of this type? I mean obviously they learn what it would take if we ever got an optic implant that restored vision to the blind? Whatever the "part" was that got rejected, seems like valuable information to me.
IMHO - any civil disobedience, high-minded or not, is just fine in my book. Whatever his motivation, he's now fighting the good fight. Either get behind him or don't.
This is why the "right" answer is a dead-man's switch. A launchd item that waits for you to do something. If you don't do it, it proceeds to shoot itself in the head. Before you go saying `sudo rm -rf/`, it's been proven before that this won't actually work. You need to have a script that will go through and blow away ~mobile, then ~root, then shoot itself in the head.
As so what the "action" is, it can't be as simple as unlocking the SpringBoard - it needs to be something you would naturally do, but not so trivial as that anyone would do it. The timeout for that switch needs to be long enough that in case you are parted with your phone for a time, it doesn't go all nuts and kill itself off prematurely. My first thought is 48 hours, but then the phone would likely die sometime outside of 24 hours. They'd have to power it up eventually in order to snoop.
I guess the rule here is pretty simple - make sure you have a sufficiently long unlock code or have Android Lock Screen installed. Don't give the code to them. I suppose you could make your trigger fire off if it's mis-entered too many times (and in fact, later iOS versions have an option to do this for you - *if* you trust that).
Much respect Bruce, however I'm terrified of physical death. The concept of ceasing to exist has caused me much anxiety and grief over the last few years, requiring medication to subdue.
In respects to death, we're all ignorant. I believe that we're referring to ignorance in life - in death, we're all equals.:(
Granted, I am human and therefore flawed, but there are things I create all the time that I understand less than I believe I do. Heck, any programmer on any given day can relate to that.:)
So - when's AdBlock Plus getting updated for this?:)
Every time I have to browse without AdBlock Plus and NoScript I cringe. The net has gotten progressively uglier and more cluttered over the years. I can't imagine having to drop those two items. Of course, I can't believe others put up with it. Wow.
Verizon may very well have the superior data product, but their TV service is crap. I have no idea *why*, but they compress and re-encode video before sending it out. The result is that all high-motion HD shots do the good old blocky-blur. Monday Night Football is an excellent example, as they do this same pan-shot at the beginning at each stadium, and the result on Verizon is *not* impressive.:(
As the lone person in the room that seems to have studying micro econ and then had to drop out halfway through macro, these arguments don't appear to scale very well.
A truly free market with corporate entities with the same rights as people but not the same responsibilities or consequences leads to a broken argument, period.
Actually, what I'm finding irritating at the moment is over-zealous use of robots.txt "Disallow" to prevent Google from caching. What winds up happening is that for one reason or another, the content is gone or removed, but still appears in the search results, yet you get a 404 page, and you can't pull the cached copy.
Y'know, Napster, and in turn OpenNap, are still what I believe to be the pinnacle of what music sharing is and could have been. I haven't used it anytime recently, but the last time I checked AudioGnome was still alive and kicking.
Parts of Napster, like being able to browse each others' music library is still sorely missed IMHO.
Oh, I think he *does* trust the invisible hand to do what it does best - find equilibrium, given the circumstances provided. Equilibrium is that cheap labor is cheaper, therefore we slide that direction, and the more expensive domestic labor must lower the pay standard to match, and then we begin a race to the bottom.
Nevermind that we already started that race. Trying to legislate or mandate our way out of it now is little but sad amusement.
Listen, if you guys haven't done the same already, consider this - I've always presumed my IT career was going to end when I reached age 40, and have planned accordingly. To presume that my pay rate would stay the same or continue to increase is insanity. There will always be someone younger and cheaper coming in behind me. Once I hit 40, my tech career is doomed so far as I am concerned. If I'm wrong, great! I'll keep working this career as long as I can. Reality is that I rarely, RARELY see an IT worker in a lucrative position older than 40 years old.
Personally, I've mapped out a second career already. Learned to make my own wines and meads, so I'm planning to switch to that. Might be in my 50's or 60's by the time I get to it, but if I have to do it earlier, I have a plan at least.:)
Blocking cheap H1-B labor might delay this, but the fact is that kids coming through school know more and more about computers every year. Face it - we're going to be obsolesced at an alarming rate either at home or abroad.
Isn't this is exactly the kind of behavior that the possibility of punitive damages in a court settlement is supposed to prevent?
You're forgetting the *settlement* part. Not a judgement. A judgement can carry punitive damages. A settlement is whatever the parties agree to outside of court.
The old rule of "never assign malice where ineptitude/stupidity/incompetence will suffice" seems to apply here. It could be malice. Could be intentional - but *really*. What engineer writes their software to intentionally miscalculate? These people pay mobile phone bills too.
I figured they were waiting for SHAtter to finally be disclosed so they could fix the bootrom, thus making the white iphone 4 invulnerable to jailbreaking. For a time.
Since SHAtter wound up going undisclosed, now they're in a pickle. Either they go around fuzzing the usb ports looking for the SHAtter vulnerability themselves, which is time consuming, and gives no clear indication that they found the exact same vulnerability that pod2g found, or they find a way to bait the iphone devs into tipping their hands and disclosing SHAtter.

I thought that was when they *didn't* love each other quite so much...?

Wait wait wait - I thought it was the Nazis we had to worry about?

There's always a certain level of irony when faced with "MacGuyver" and "shooting" in the same sentence.

I'm presuming parents can too...
I'm willing to be wrong - maybe ESPN is doing it then? That breakup is just horrendous.

I'm replying at the top for one reason - because if I haven't seen this in the first few replies, it's dying to be said:
If you're less responsive and even less trusted than PayPal - you my friend, are royally screwed.

That whole scenario would take many months to play out, as the iphone devs have proven to be far more patient after what happened with the iPhone 3G[s] bootrom.
