It's great that Samsung is making this user-friendly, but people have been installing chrooted Linux on rooted Android phones for many years, at least as far back as the HTC Magic in 2009.
I haven't tried since my old Motorola Cliq, performance was EXTREMELY poor back then...
NORTH CAROLINA TO KENTUCKY? He's lucky he wasn't eaten by cannibals or found dead after the spring thaw.
This is a stupid article. It's not even ironically amusing, it's just pathetic.
Maybe Apple's been forced to include some sort of backdoor that they can't talk about, and this is the only way it might be "exposed."
Then again, I wouldn't expect Apple to give two shits if it had the potential to negatively impact sales, so maybe not...
The book was a tool to protest against "injustice" or whatever they're ticked about.
They probably care about his opinion slightly less than I care about the opinion of the hammer I used to repair my fence, or the opinion of the wrench I used to disassemble my brake calipers.
What non-Microsoft Windows(TM) product are you running?
I'm pretty sure if you replace Windows with Linux/BSD/whatever it's no longer a Windows computer.
This is one of those eternal security arguments; without manually reviewing the code YOURSELF, and compiling the kernel from that manually reviewed code YOURSELF, it's "as far as you know."
Maybe you do that, I don't know; I'm just aware that the security of my linux installs relies on a chain of trust, and even if that chain is 100% verifiable from source to binary, there's still no guarantee that there isn't an obfuscated back door or malicious code exploit that was overlooked.
Countries outside the typical American "first-world" level of development typically rely HEAVILY on mobile devices like cellphones.
This decision makes sense, in my opinion.
A few of the many, many things I really don't remember from "The Hobbit" or ANY of the corollary writings:
Bilbo killing an orc during the fir tree scene.
An amazingly drawn-out fight with orcs during the barrel escape.
Orc battle in Laketown.
The ridiculous Radagast scene with the Rhosgobel Rabbits which even my eight year old daughter thought was stupid.
The movie Peter Jackson presented was an adaptation of "The Hobbit" inasmuch as it DID contain a hobbit, thirteen dwarves, a wizard, and a dragon, but that's as far as the similarities go.
When we're on the road we don't stop for an hour anywhere typically. So what you're saying is realistically it'll add 2 to 2.5 hours to my trip, since I'll have to find a power station with a bay open that I can use for a full hour, and hope it's not limited to a 10 minute top-off because of demand.
If I can't drive from Atlanta to Chicago without multiple hour stopovers, it's no-go.
What I think we NEED are electric/gas hybrids; something I can head back and forth to work in solely on plug-in power, yet I can kick a small electric generator on for essentially unlimited range.
The universe DID expand, immediately collapse into another super-massive black hole, and we're all just echoes in the subsequent Hawking radiation that's been released.
The "accelerating universe" phenomenon is actually our local space/time having been slowed down by this super-massive black hole rather than distant galaxies speeding up.
Make the Nobel Prize out to "Varka, of the Hill People."
I seem to remember the last time some really important documents were lost they were found somewhere in the vicinity of Hillary Clinton's desk. That might be a good place to start looking...
The level of trust in the current binary builds, in my mind, approaches 0. Once the source code audit is complete, we'll see where my level of trust is in whatever newly compiled versions might be available.
Ideally I'd be able to take the source with verifiable md5sum/etc. and compile my own, but a number of comments seem to indicate that this is unlikely, so maybe it's just time to move on to something else.
If the developers left this "message" that 7.2 might be compromised, what kind of guarantee is there that 7.1 isn't also compromised
The only kind of guarantee there is: an open, publically funded audit of the code. That's the point of this exercise, even before people realized that blindly trusting the TrueCrypt code was a mistake, and that an audit by non-government researchers was needed.
You're assuming the binary is actually compiled from the source being audited.
Once the source audit is complete, AND a recompiled version FROM THAT SOURCE is available, then I might consider using TC again...
Obviously I'm no astrophysicist, but how many galaxies could we potentially have already lost sight of? How many could be just beyond this horizon already?
Ostensibly, this isn't proof of the absence of god or heaven.
The (theological) argument can be made that all humans die until God resurrects them at the end of the world. Their souls are sleeping/in an unknown state until this happens.
So, unless you were dead long enough that the "end of the world" happened, and then woke up and no heaven/angels, it doesn't mean much from a Biblical standpoint.

We're all counting on you!

Finished, unchangeable. As in, you can't change tthe recipe once it's been baked.
www.clearfoundation.com It's a super nice piece of software.
Uh, no. You can keep your Citation.
The internet isn't a prerequisite for learning, it's a substitute for detailed knowledge and experience.

What if your neighbor let you put an antenna up on his property, and run a cable from YOUR antenna to YOUR receiver?

I'm looking at an Omni Magazine from 1978 and it contains the UFO UPDATE section on page 28. That trash was ALWAYS a part of Omni magazine.
