Microsoft's response (some time last week, this isn't 'new') was basically, "you get the best experience if you stay with the way the handset designers give it to you". As in, they're not saying yes or no, just the ambiguous we'd just rather you didn't.
This isn't how determining where your 911 call is routed works. The tower/phone exchange know where to forward you to for 911, the position data you pointed out is for 911, not for the phone company to tell you where 911 is.
I think there's a pretty simple consistancy check to run here - if you are using your home phone to do these things, then sure, you might want a phonebook. But most people have cell phones. If you belong to a gym, you could have put the contact entry in there (though I don't expect you to have your grocery store.) But even more people nowadays have smartphones - it's one quick trip to Google Maps for me. Same data, less dead trees.
I remember doing that in high school. Teacher said we could put anything on a 3x5" notecard for a math test, so I used Publisher and printed stuff out at font size 4 or so.
Salt has absolutely nothing to do with collisions if you have the target hash you're trying to collide with. Finding collisions means they don't need to know the original input, it means they found some other input that creates the same hash. Salting only helps dictionary attacks against the password that created the hash.
I actually like Crunchyroll's model, and it's nice they have some apps too (iPod Touch and iPad, etc.) but unfortunately they only have a couple shows I want to watch active, and the ease of torrenting it outweighs the cost of paying.
PC drivers for the Wii remote? It's exposed as a HID device over Bluetooth, you don't even/need/ drivers. Nintendo literally used the simplest method possible.
Agreed, but where I live, one of the theaters I go to has a normal ticket price of $7, and with their "movie club" card I can get a large soda AND drink for like $3.95, not to mention every movie I see gives me points I can build up to get free concessions. I know this isn't an option for (most?) people, so I guess I'm just lucky.
And you can still find LCD monitors that only have VGA and not DVI. What's your point? DisplayPort is still new. It'll take a while. DVI wasn't adopted overnight.
If you're buying all the extra snacks you have nobody to blame but yourself for the reason you spent so much to go to the theater! Have dinner before the movie, or something. Now it should cost (hopefully) only $20 at most for two people. Problem solved.

WebDAV?
Not if he was behind SEVEN PROXIES.
Where I work, we have both. Shrug.
So you're saying Microsoft isn't going to hand over your data on a court order? Or.. any other company in the US? Really?

That was yesterday, though. That would, however, make today boring :(
Ouch. I'm paying $35/mo for 6mb/768k on AT&T.

Here you go

Is this why I don't get frustrated playing Super Meat Boy?
I prefer having the potential to shoot myself in the foot using C# instead of always shooting my foot, my leg, and my neighbor's leg using Java.
I think GP meant that they don't like the smell, not the process.

I'm pretty sure (The Daily Show) and Cobert are available on Comedy Central's site within a day.

So Google's plan to take over the world all along was to do it through Google Maps? It all makes sense!
That's mostly because the GA code needs to go at the bottom of the page, not the top.
Some might swear the tea party R's are just turning it down as a coverup.

Augh, my train is always 900 seconds late!
