It is possible to set your location by hand, and tell Maps to never update automatically. I'm not sure if it allows you to set separate locations for different people, but there's nothing stopping you from making a "safe" account and a "real" account
No, if you're really paranoid you DON'T CARRY A CELL PHONE IN THE FIRST PLACE. Think about it: if you don't have a phone, you can't be tracked through it, period.
3G (in context of GSM) == UMTS, the successor to GSM. In nearly all cases*, a UMTS phone also contains GSM, as most UMTS network providers have yet to match the full coverage of their GSM networks. 3G (in context of CDMA) == EV-DO, an upgrade to the CDMA2000 standard (much like GPRS-EDGE for GSM, but from 2.5G to 3G)
*The edge cases being mostly Asian countries like Japan (PDC) and South Korea (CDMA)
Which limits your (in the US) carrier choice to T-Mobile, and your handset choice to a handful of mid-end feature phones and all but three of their BlackBerrys.
I actually tried that once with DD-WRT, as our phones kept colliding with the wifi. Trouble was, some of our gear (oddly enough, our Wii and DS) couldn't see the signal.
Which is perfectly legally and morally fine. The LGPL allows you to charge money for distributing software (provided, of course, you also follow through with the rest of the license, incl. providing source), and there's nothing wrong with selling the service of downloading software and burning it to disc for you.
You mean the Qt docs program also designs GUIs? I'm sure you meant Designer.

Qt Becomes LGPL

· Score: 2, Informative
If you have a piece of GPL code in your program, all of the program must be GPL. LGPL only applies to the LGPL code and any changes you make to it (your original code can be under any license)
But it's the only thing that can get you on the secret network on the same device as you can check your unclassified email on.
Which, IMHO, borders very close on a Very Bad Idea (TM). One pin-sized hole and "oops, I just posted the positions of the entire armed forces on Facebook"
They're already secure enough to be standard issue to all Congress critters, including AES encryption and (software) self and remote destruct. Wouldn't be too much of a leap for the Presidential model.
It gets better. I ran across a service for my Blackberry called Qik that lets you stream video live from the phone, and saves the video to the site straight away.
So, for example, if someone who had a phone with Qik was taping the BART shooting or something equally embarrassing to $powerful_group, even if security forced you to delete the video and took the phone, the video's already out there.
Funny you should mention that, Opera has all those out of the box. -AdBlock ("content blocker") -Foxmarks (Opera Link) -Greasemonkey (User JS) -Firebug (Dragonfly)
The big difference here is that with webOS; 1) The apps are actually stored locally 2) Palm is apparently allowing access to the hardware via CSS, HTML, and JavaScript (details are scarce right now), something no one else does right now
The Storm does something like that. In portrait mode, it defaults to SureType (2 letters per "key" in a QWERTY-like layout), and in landscape it goes to full QWERTY.
Microsoft intended Windows Solitaire "to soothe people intimidated by the operating system", and at a time where many users were still unfamiliar with graphical user interfaces, it proved useful in familiarizing them with the use of a mouse, such as the drag-and-drop technique required for moving cards.
Slashdot Mirror
the new sheriff is near?
I see what you did there.
My 2001 MiniDisc* walkman respectfully disagrees. The 3.5mm jack doubles as a mini-TOSLINK jack.
*Yes, I bought one. Sue me
Do what HTC does on their phones. Have your fancy weird connector, but design it to where a standard Micro-USB can plug in and do it's thing as well.
Yes, it will break 90% of the accessories out there, but since when has Apple given two shits about backwards compatibility?
We do. It's called SyncML. Google now supports it as well (though calendar sync isn't 100% together yet)

They're working on it (J2ME and Blackberry programming isn't too far apart), but most J2ME phones can't run apps in the background anyway

Um, Ubuntu does sign their packages.

1)Use some of that paint that blocks cell phone calls. (works for wifi also)
...and now what happens when you try to make a cell call?

Biggest downside of course being you would have to use Windows Mobile. Being a fellow BlackBerry addict, it's not the same.

KDE and OSX have also supported this for a while.
And so has *nix proper since the dawn of time :)
