I had no real issues getting into a Nexus 7 box. Certainly a lot less of a hassle than a lot of those plastic containers that a lot of products come with that need to be open with a knife and torn apart.
Saw the unboxing videos and thought it was actually pretty funny.
I will note however, that opening the Amazon Kindle Fire box was one of the easiest I've ever done though.
Saw the video of it taking off.. was on a cart until lift off leaving the only obvious wheels behind. So how does it land? didn't see anything on the page about that.
Not sure what response the "Artist" had in mind, but I thought it was pretty funny. I can imaging people being upset, but really, its not like he killed the cat to make to copter.
Depending on where you are located, you can use 3G or 4G data on a phone or a dedicated hotspot. Unless you plan on going hog wild on it.. Then you control your access... Hard to imagine that you didn't know this going in though.... you did ask before you signed up right?
Go after the companies that are supporting the bill as well. Look what happened to GoDaddy when it was found out they were supporting it. Imagine what happens when companies like 1800contacts, Ford, Adidas and others start getting consumers telling them to drop support as well or lose business.
Business funds Congress... if they start saying no, Congress will say no too.
I only use PGPMail via work which has an automatic way to encrypt email for business purposes. Outside of that, I have little need to encrypt my email. If it is important, confidential information, I don't send it in email.
Curious... does The Gaines Center for the Humanities get public funding? Perhaps applying pressure to public funding sources to remove funding might be appropriate.
As for the comment "In fact, I'd say the fact that the slashdot response to this has been so stereotypical -- a witchhunt, and very quick to label this guy as a religious nut with dangerous delusions and now a sore loser --, rather justifies his decision, even at the risk of a Streisand Effect (which his opponent was very quick to pursue)."
It is hard to come to any conclusion when the tape of the actual debate has been censored. If the tape is published, then we can see for ourselves what happened and make a more educated guess..
In this day and age, keeping track of accounts and passwords is a bit more complex than before. You should have different passwords and even account names for each account if possible and they should be secure passwords. There is other information like what the "secret" questions were which in some cases are hard even for you to remember what you replied with.
Using an password wallet (I use B-folders), allows you to keep track of these things with a master access password which makes it easy to do, but a lot more secure and portable than writing them down on paper.
Providing your Lawyer with information on how to obtain that access password along with other legal paperwork you need to pass along should make it easy to do what you are asking.
If you make it too complicated, you simply won't do it... so use a tool that you yourself can use at the same time and there is no big deal about it.
I've got GB on my Droid... but without a front facing camera there is little point to Google Talk video support.
GB made some changes to the phone (Droid Incredible) but certainly was not needed or necessary and I certainly don't expect ICS for it though I am sure I will be able to get a ROM after it is available for it if I wanted to.
Phone is getting older... will most likely just upgrade to a newer phone anyway.. Faster, more memory etc.. (looking a HTC Rezound) It doesn't come with ICS either, but will get it.
His post was more about a overall philosophy of development building blocks than about Google+ specifically. Google+ and some other Google products were examples of why.
If you are donating to the charity, ask them what they need. Donating equipment with something they don't need or can support would be kind of useless. If this is a normal computer donation program, they should have guidelines of what they need and can accept.
I would think that the same rules in effect for getting fingerprinted should apply. I don't recall police running around finger printing people unless they have been named a suspect, charged, etc.. Normally part of the booking process.
To allow an officer to scan you when he would not have normally been able to get you fingerprinted would be wrong.
Does it really mean that? This is Apple after all. People are going to buy the iPad2 over the other devices for any number of reasons--mainly the OS and the applications available for it.
For the very reason you mention, a lot of people won't buy an iPad because it is Apple, stuck with iTunes etc... I don't have an iPhone, would never want one, so that attraction isn't there. My wife has one though.
Right now, I don't think the tablet experience is there yet, but it will catch up like it has with smartphones.
Slashdot Mirror
Google case, now this one... wow. Oracle is not my favorite company, extremely dislike their support services etc...
Use a password wallet. I use a random password for almost every site. One gets broken into, they have no idea what the password is to the other.
A decent wallet can sync to more than one location (like phone)... use a good base password.
Starting to see more 2 Factor Authentication which is even better.

Right... ignorant was the right word.
About Time.... Then the people will know they have a problem.. right now, they think everything is fine.
Old news.

They are already here.
My HotSpot has a Data Only plan now. There is no voice component and doesn't use the phone number allocated to it at all.

The fact the tools exist is the issue, not necessarily who is using them. right?
If the US is using the same tool as Iran... it is really the same issue unless you are going to believe that the US is only going to use it correctly.

Very good article.
Rate hikes on data plans for new LTE data on Sprint has not yet been announced.
That is exactly why Netflix didn't come to terms with Starz... they don't want to do that.
They were willing to pay $300 Million for continued access. Starz wanted them to use tiered pricing.
According to Netflix, Starz only makes up around 8% of content used by Netflix subscribers now and that is dropping.
Not very much like me. I'm missing the bar attached to my hip. I can run straight too.... don't like circles.

I don't think that /. is a positive influence on your life... why are you asking this on an Internet based service?

I OBJECT!
I don't drink alcohol... So why am I not able to use the app to avoid the annoyance and time wasting these checkpoints represent.
I also don't speed, but I want to know where the speed traps are.
