Whenever OpenId comes up there's always a million comments about handing over passwords and that all it takes is one site you're registered with to be compromised for your identity to be lost.
This is not the case as OpenId does not share your actual login information with the third party at all. All the authentication happens at your provider.
I fail to see how people consistently overlook this vital piece of information.
If you're provider is compromised on the other hand... you're pretty much in the same place as somebody compromising your mailbox. And there's a worrying trend of people just handing that information out anyway.
I went in really hoping they'd pull this off. And for the most part, the film was an entertaining kids film.
HOWEVER
Awful child acting and the occasional grown-up incident of overacting combined with perhaps some of the worst blue screening I'd seen in awhile and a few noticable "frame rate" drops (waterfall falling apart) the film kept throwing stuff at me that pulled me out of the film and destroyed my suspension of disbelief. Aslan was done very well, but as a whole, my very first reaction was "well, that was a bit rubbish wasn't it". After letting it digest it was a very good kids film, but most grown people will see right through the more wooden transparent parts (wow, oxymoron).
It's hillarious you mention the gta newsgroup. "Back in the day" I was one of about 25 regulars and we took pride in our off-topic on-topic-ness.
Sure we barely ever mentioned GTA. But there *was* a topic.
Really, the way most newsgroups always ended up going...

You're an idiot. Nobody wants FEATURES! No! Don't give us new features!
Nah, I thought the first was reasonable and loved the second one.

Amen. Infuriating much?
