Sorry, you're right, you didn't. I wonder what it was made me think you had?
Anyhow, to address your points, on the RasPi the design decisions were made to financial constraints. The $25 model A for school kids price point just couldn't accommodate WiFi, nor Ethernet; only the (released) model B @ $35 has it.
The RasPi isn't intended to be a "wearable computer" and this APC looks like it has an aerial built in, although most cases you would put round it would tend to act as RF shields if the supporting circuitry was in place.
I came up with another solution.
But that wasn't what my reply was about. GP said that RasPi had built in radio, I just pointed out it doesn't.
For me this is no problem, I don't intend to put WiFi or BT into the machine, although I do have one of those stupidly small BT dongles (from the Pound Shop no less).
And now because I (a UK citizen) read your reply to that post quoting the offensive part it becomes a problem for all of us under ECHELON.
Damn you computers!
$3.99 with free shipping.
In the UK we can get them for a quid.
I don't see this cheaply made devices having a DAC (or ADC) worth spit, but I knew $17 was a little high. Maybe the extra $13.01 buys you something that will last long enough to listen to the whole of the first song you play with it?
If this bothers you, or anyone else, try to use https and secure connections wherever possible.
This means that without some directed effort on the part of your ISP (MITM/brute force) all your ISP knows is which site you visit, not the contents of your conversation with the servers.
Because it is never about law enforcement.
If the.GOV wanted to stop crime they would have been spending money on the police force instead of dropping coppers like hot potatoes left right and centre.
Burgled? Here's an incident number for the insurance claim. Go away and stop trying to make us work. We don't have the resources to follow this up.
Assulted? Try to match one of these well dressed, smiling prettily, gentle looking men in these pictures to the snarling, pissed up lout that bottled you in the pub two weeks ago without being able to see the CCTV of the incident. Go away and stop trying to make us work. We don't have the resources to follow this up.

Oh they put a few quid into "terrorism" but only because that in itself creates an air of terror in the public. Justifying more money being diverted to scanners, cyber squads and legislation like this which benefits a few well dressed guys with big computer dreams who know that selling IT to people who don't get it, especially in the.GOV is a licence to print money.
See NHS, schools, waste disposal, speed calming, CCTV, missile defence and a multitude of other election claims for more evidence.
Screw you Westminster; you take our tax with promises of making everyone's life better, then give it to your friends. Blue, Yellow or Red, you're all lying thieves.
SSH tunnel, open proxies, your phone's 3G connection, Starbux WiFi, then go next door to McGonads, can you think of any more ways to evade the IP check?
Oh, there are other sites that end in.ch and are dramatic encyclopædias but those would just be far too obscene to make the +1 Informative that this link might get.
PS That character that poor crippled old SlashCode is stumbling over like a blind paraplegic is the ae.

It isn't about it being the only site that serves up.torrents, it is more about the fact that TPB shoves it right down the throats of those who would oppress them in a very public way.
Lots of people won't use public trackers, lots of people stay away from hi-vis targets like TPB on principle, but you have to hand it to them, they are trying very hard to make sure that people know that laws bought and paid for by some rich corporations in America aren't set in stone around the world without the titular Governmental Apparatus in other countries ratifying them into law there.

What use is 74Mbit/sec data if you're unable to download more than 500MB/month?
Might as well stick to ISDN speeds and seem like you're downloading all day every day.
Only when you're in a City though, nobody ever uses their mobile phones outside the City, do they?
If you're unlucky enough to be using MSFT Windows you can use a great little program called Sandboxie.
Run the browser without the sandbox to update, freshen AdBlock filters and set a few NoScript permissions, then back into the sandbox so nothing else is permanent.
Even safe enough to let your SO use after you've cleared the history!
The sandbox doesn't just run your browser, you can run keygens and other potential threats in there safe in the knowledge that 3 clicks will remove any malware that came with it. Great for testing whether an install is full of crapware.
According to other sites that ran this story ages ago the pricing was done by an algorithm that detected the increase in sales and raised the price to maximise on those sales.
Plus it was stated that Apple only take 30% of iTunes revenue, SONY (and that other labels) set the prices.

There is a lovely button on Password Hasher that will give you a completely new password by incrementing the base word for your pass by 1.
IE if your word is "slashdot" then pressing the button would yield "slashdot:1" and on the next press "slashdot:2".
When you enter your pass phrase "secret passphrase" with these three iterations you come up with drastically different passwords.
Hashing those three with that passphrase gives:
"o8lrua7x0JkLD/OJXfS8X0GFy0"
"13gagdDwWhBIDFnZvcvTf+lOs4"
"fss5ShpkRzNz3+FGa7qvWqwg9K"
When it's that convenient why should changing passwords be a myth?
Admittedly I change my ssh key, WiFi key and a few critical site passwords two or three times a year, but I'm insane. Normal people could manage to update theirs regularly if they bothered to take passwords even remotely seriously.
