Typically this type of login requires both the one time passwords AND your normal passwords.
No, the goal is that you can use this 1-time password on a non-trusted computer and it would not be useful if keylogged. Requiring you to also type your normal password makes no sense in this context.
In most other states, there'd be a state income tax, or a hefty county tax, or a sales tax or something to support fire coverage for all the citizens in the county.
Choke because you swallowed a brick, being transported to the hospital, and having your older brother yell at you because he didn't get that brick back and you weren't old enough to play with HIS legos.
the definition of good or bad edits has nothing to do with my previous comment.
if 50% of a page edits are good edits, and the other 50% are bad edits, if none of the bad edits were ever reverted, 99% of good edits were reverted, only 49.5% of all edits were reverted.
It's just mathematics. nothing to do with WP politics of edition and reversions.
On a side note, I agree with you about niche subjects. The notability threshold should be lower.
And in 6 years, they managed to get an 8 items long list of features lacking several that can be considered essential to any socialnetworking software.
I really like pip.io [pip.io], for example. very pretty but just starting, they lack a number of functionnalities. and a mass of users.
So.... you like it, but it doesn't have the people you want to connect to or the functionality you're looking for.
So.... why do you like it again? Honest question - I'm now quite curious. It doesn't seem to come close to meeting the needs you had...
I use it to access my facebook account because the people I know are on facebook, but there's a number of things I can't do anywhere else than facebook.com (posting something to only a subset of my contacts, setting up parameters, editing my profile...). Those are things I can do in pip.io with my pip.io account, but since almost nobody I know is on pip.io, it has almost no impact.
When I say I like it, it's because I like the way it looks and it works. I can't really use it, I only sign up because I wanted to know how they do things, and I like what I saw. As a web developer, I'm really curious about how different people solve different problem, and I think social web problems ar really interesting.
pip.io, or diaspora may never end up being realy use by a lot of people, but each contributes to try to solve the problem that is "how to do a social network the right way?". I like both of their answers, and hope that in 5 or 10 years, the social network where most people will be will have inherited something from them.
From what I understand, you don't allow other seeds to access your data: your seed pushes your data to the other seeds.
For example, when you update your status, your seed will send it to all the seeds of your friend. Other seeds have no reason to share your data, except with the friend you have there. And if you don't trust the operator of a particuliar seed (gdiaspora, iDiaspora, mydiaspora.ru...) you should be able to configure your seed not to send it anything that you set as highly private (or whatever you want: work related, family only, etc).
You could share less data with friends depending on the seed provider they chose, and while it's not a perfect privacy shield, it can (I won't say 'is' before knowing what more knowlegeable people than me think) be better than what exists now.
So what happens when some chunk of users lose access or data because of a third party screwup? Is that possible in this system? It sounds like it. What happens when the first 'free' service that gets a fair amount of users has a public data leak?
Handing third parties control over your data is very different if you have a choice of who you want to trust.
If this project gains traction and achieves its goals, there would be maybe a dozen big providers and hundreds of little ones where most people would be hosting their data, maybe most ISPs would also provide such a service for their customers (with their own front-end and everything), and a handful of nerds will run their own server at home.
Most people don't really care about privacy of their data, and are happy to hand it over to facebook. People who really care don't use facebook. With a system like diaspora, paranoid people could have a websocial-life without worrying about Zuckerberg bigbrothering them.
I can see it working. But I don't know if it will be (with diaspora or something else not existing yet).
The goal is to have a facebook equivalent without a central organization: they do not need a ton of servers because they don't want to host the users data.
They want each and every user to be responsible for where he wants to host his own data, be it on a home server, on a rented remote server, or via a specialized service provider.
They want social web to be a bit like e-mail, where no single entity owns the whole system.

agreed, you should not be able to change your e-mail/password/privacy setting with it.
Typically this type of login requires both the one time passwords AND your normal passwords.
No, the goal is that you can use this 1-time password on a non-trusted computer and it would not be useful if keylogged. Requiring you to also type your normal password makes no sense in this context.
They would still be behind opera 10.
If they can't write specs in less than several years, why not divide html 5 into its core components and concentrate the work on one piece at a time?
They could work on the final specs for the canva element first, then the video tag, client storage, and so on until everything is done.
There could be some kind of a transitionnal html5, falling back to html4 when something is not yet specified.
Maybe they could have billed him the full price of getting the fire department running since the previous fire.

But... but... but... that's COMMUNISM!
See, that's just not true. You can write and install your own non-approved apps
Being able to do something after jailbreaking your phone doesn't mean apple allows it.
And a number of things are just allowed by Apple because there are laws against them not allowing it.
Where are my mod points when I need them?
More app stores is a good thing. Each user can use one or several stores, depending on the use they have to their devices.
The average /. user already have mikandi's app store installed alongside google's.
Tragic, of course, that people would buy something so crippled and locked down they must "jailbreak" it to make it more useful.
Certainly this is effort better spent improving solutions that are more open from the get-go?
Vote with your dollars, don't ever buy a device that needs to be hacked to become usable.
(but don't hesitate to hack an already usable device if you want to)
Care to give an example?
Choke because you swallowed a brick, being transported to the hospital, and having your older brother yell at you because he didn't get that brick back and you weren't old enough to play with HIS legos.

On a side note, I agree with you about niche subjects. The notability threshold should be lower.
Care to show us even one article where 99% of good edits are reverted? Remember, that will mean that over 99% of all edits are reverted.
not if there are bad edits that are not reverted.
"Nasty bits"? Do you mean 1s or 0s?
1s into 0s

According to the .txt file, it's wolfenstein 3D
I looked again and apart from the title, the article has nothing to do with castle wolfenstein.
Title and summary are wrong: the article is not about Castle Wolfenstein.

A number of other social networks let you do just that.

Oh ugh, that sounds horrible.
