The bigger issue is that with all the sites that demand a log in, you're not going to have passwords that are strong, unique and regularly changed. Which is really the problem, on top of which many sites will hand out your information to anybody that can guess the security answers, which one then needs to remember as well because without them the account can't be reset.
Yes, it means that the number of protesters killed is a more certain number than previously believed. Meaning that the death toll has almost certainly been exaggerated on the assumption that there were protesters killed where nobody was looking. If they were all killed in places where the world had some means of observing it means that the crimes committed by the Chinese government in this instance were less severe than previously believed.
I remember when I was in school we had "in house suspensions" that would be given out from time to time. Basically the student would be required to show up for school, but be kept completely separate from the rest of the school body until the time was served. I'm not sure if they still do that anymore, but they would be required to do their work rather than get some time off.
You're an idiot. We are Americans in the context of national identities. I don't know why this is such a difficult concept for bigots in other countries to get. "Americans" as in people who live on the super continent of America are rarely referred to as a group because there's rarely anything which genuinely justifies talking about that kind of a diverse group. Most often it's North Americans or South Americans because at least that's specific enough to be useful from time to time.
But what happens to the laptop life?

Seriously, solar cells get hot, and laptops themselves have enough trouble from getting hot, I'm curious as to how bad the hit is going to be in terms of device durability.
It definitely is and assuming that this is a somewhat accurate description of what happened, the police officers involved could easily find themselves behind bars for witness tampering, destruction of evidence amongst other things. And police officers do get sent to prison from time to time for this sort of behavior.
I agree, I've got a 360 controller and it's easily the most comfortable controller I've ever used. It might be because I've got large hands and can with great difficulty palm a basketball, but it actually is large enough that my hands don't cramp up like they do on that stupid PS3 controller.
I didn't realize that it was out. I tried the beta for a brief bit and found it to be quite nice, a decided speed up over the previous version and no bugs in the parts I used.
The filter is great, but for whatever reason they didn't think to include the ability to filter things which don't have stars. Which makes it a pain because often times I want to delete or work with everything in a folder that isn't starred, but the program won't do that. Sure there's a filter for starred, but there is no way of inverting the search at present. I did look for a solution, but have been unsuccessful as of late.
And what happens when you suddenly need that email from a few years back that you didn't think you'd need? Seriously, unless you're doing a lot of email, chances are that the volume is small enough to keep backed up. Having something like Thunderbird chugging away in the background or some other program backing things up means that if somebody fat fingers your data that you've at least got some backup somewhere that covers it.
I had a Motorola Backflip for a while, I loved the concept, but the large number of apps that they insisted upon installing with the firmware, the ones I couldn't uninstall pretty much killed it for me. On top of that because they opted to use their Motoblur, it meant that had I kept the phone that I would have ended up waiting for them to QA that on top of whatever time it took for Google to release an update.
It being tightly locked down really didn't help anything.
Indeed, also do yourself a favor and make sure that you have at least one set of servers that's within some sort of sane drive from your home or office. The last thing you're going to want to do is drive 6 hours because the people on site don't have a key. Sure you can allow them to have a key, just make sure that there's a sane system in place to track the keys at all times so that there aren't times when some random person has a key or worse where one key can unlock multiple sets of servers.
This is a compelling reason for Mozilla to drop this new versioning bullshit. If people start going to an N-1 that could very well mean that a browser that's been out for less than a year would suddenly be unusable on many sites and the new browser would be completely unusable on other ones.
OTOH it's not like the new versioning system was a good idea in other respects.
I fail to see a problem there, apart from Google, none of those other sites are ones which should be used at work anyways. Besides, if corporate America is so cheap and incompetent as to still be in that position, well they deserve it, this is a bit like pitching camp on railroad tracks, sure there might not be a train coming now, but there will be one eventually. People who get burned in this fashion really deserve it.
It is, however they can sometimes shake something out that prevents the exemption from applying. Projects which rely upon reverse engineering have to be very careful that they properly shield themselves from information which might make the immunity go bye bye
There is no such box as my state has no income tax. That might be the case in most other states, but for the 11 states without an income tax there is no form on which to fill in the information.
It is, however the rules on all that was made back well before the internet or even the grandparents of the people who would eventually create the internet were born. There is ultimately no solution to the problem so long as the media feels entitled to release the names of people who may or may not have done anything wrong. It's one thing to release the names of politicians that have been caught cheating, it's quite another to release the names of people who just received the photos with or without any participation on their part.
Perhaps what we need to do is loosen up on the libel laws to allow people who get ensnared in somebody else' scandal to file suit against the papers that ultimately libel them. There's no reason why a paper's profit motive shouldn't be sufficient to replace the normal malice requirement.
Anybody that was tax conscious has already left the state. The taxes are sky high and the government seems hell bent on marrying the worst conservative benefit cuts with the worst liberal tax policies into an unholy state of high taxation and low governmental service.
It's not just a matter of trust, the stores aren't required to report the sales to the state, the consumers are unlikely to know how and where to pay the taxes they owe. It's been my feeling for some time that it's ridiculous to expect customers to collect and pay the taxes as we're not given any particularly efficient way to do it and there isn't any actual enforcement of the law anyways.

No, but Elmo is.

If you lose your laptop, you've got bigger things to worry about. There're much better ways of getting at whatever information the person is after.

I'm familiar with Bieber, we're already worse than 1984, 1985, 1986 ...

So, they're sort of like the GOP without any opposition?

These aren't the droids you're looking for.

Then what precisely did Google and Apple receive when they paid the licensing fee?
