    It's just that artificial gravity their chips create.

    Because of this video that shows 1000 cars going to the same residence every day for a month. Or because one of their friends says they did it. Or both.

    Maybe so, security around here gets the palms too.

    I dunno too much about iPhones, but can't you jailbreak one of those and/or root an Android and get what you want? If not I think there are some bittorent clients for Android at least. I'm pretty sure there is also a proxy for rooted Androids as well since there isn't legal alternatives. I normally buy the CD and go from there anyhow. It just seems like a better deal.

    If you fight piracy that hard then all you will have are pirates.

    I'm assuming that maybe there are that many babies that slip through the cracks. I dunno what age they fingerprint at but I bet they get a palm printd too.

    Maybe so, but I can't read minds unfortunately.

    No there wasn't. My number is lower than yours is. If you want something to be modded funny, it actually has to be funny and NOT take too damned long to read.

    I have to agree on one thing though, many more people will MOD you down just for disagreeing, which I don't quite think is too cool. In any case the "Funny" MOD does not really help your karma at all.

    And yes I do read at -1 and yes I read both of them that we slightly different. We'll it was a good troll. You got a reply at least.

    I hear the Canadians have hacked it whilst smoking something called BC Bub or Club or something.

    More thumb prints seem to be around crime scenes maybe?

    I think the Android version might be better or at least the reviews are better on Google Play or whatever they are calling it these days.

    I'm confused. I thought they were very similar.

    How exactly is Exchange hard to maintain? I understand it doesn't scale well but it ends up in small businesses mainly.

    --What I find interesting is how Microsoft still uses the Office suite to fend off threats to the real reason it is still entrenched in many back offices... Exchange.--

    Nothing else quite like it especially for a small business. So yes, Office, is what Microsoft really has. It's been a cash cow for years, but it's kinda worth it.

    No worry Apple can just buy Microsoft & Facebook and then they have it all.

    Exactly, but some organizations also use everything including DNA. I'm guessing India is using all 10 digits and both palms to come up with that number. Thumbs are good to have as many prints will be those.

    Yep, and the government accounts for much of that.

    We'll at least a judge did rule on them. How do you think the police can execute a warrant if the suspect knows about it before hand? It probably mostly has to do with drugs I would imagine.

    Someone asked me is the problem ignorance or apathy. I don't know and don't care. Censorship is stupid anyhow. OK look up how to make a bomb with Google. Now they aren't going to make this easy for you but to anyone that really wants to put the information to an improper use, they can find this stuff easily. Once the fire is lit, it's going to burn, and there is no putting the information back. Not completely. Now think about how hard it would be to make a nuke? All you have to have is enough nuclear material. It seems any country that doesn't have one could get one pretty simple. So it's not like the bad guys don't already know more about things like that anyhow.

    Usually it's all 10 fingers and palms too so 12 x 1 billion people = 12 billion prints. Easy.
