I hate the fact that I have well over 20 passwords. I also have at least 5 different machines that I need to use.
Give me a better option, please!!!!

Goog411 was amazing! No ads, good results. Thankfully I have a smartphone, but there were still times that Goog411 was faster than using my smartphone.
I guess I will go back to 1-800-Free411
The Fart App is the new Hello World!
You have to get experience writing for a platform somehow. Your first few programs may be throw-away, just to get used to the platform.
The end user just needs to Feel comfortable. Once a user gets into a web browser, they don't really care about the OS. Something like this would be great for hotel lobbies (with free internet), libraries, and other public access sites.
My wife (a linux hater) used it in a hotel lobby to print out some airline tickets. She had no idea it was Linux, but I noticed the differences. She had a great experience (managed to get her items printed out without an issue), and just assumed it was a windows machine.
Her view of the hotel improved because of a simple amenity that helped her out. The hotel had a PC without a costly OS, saving them money. I can easily see the value in something like this.
They just can't use the DMCA in their defense. They may find some other loophole to prosecute you, and they may still brick your phone with some kind of firmware update.
Was Sony involved?
Con Edison blind-tested the team’s model by withholding information on a recent set of fires and explosions. The top 2 percent of manholes ranked as vulnerable by the algorithm included 11 percent of the manholes that had recently had a fire or explosion, Rudin notes.
According to the article, there are about 51,000 manholes in New York. A few hundred explosions occur every year. (Lets say 300). So the algorithm listed (51,000*.02)=1020 manholes that were high risk. Out of that 1020 manholes, they were correct on (300*.11)=33 manholes.
In my industry, we would call this a complete failure. Even the weather forecaster would call this a failure. It reminds me of Demolition Man
Chief George Earle: We can just wait for another code to go red. And when Phoenix performs another Murder Death Kill, we'll know exactly where to pounce.
John Spartan: [sarcastic] Great plan.
Chief George Earle: [not realising the sarcasm] Thank you.
Erwin: He likes your plan, Chief!
Gotta give some props to Google and their "Don't be Evil".
They could have tried to sweep this under the rug, pay people off, and play politics as usual. Instead, they have fully released all of the information, encouraging multiple countries to investigate them.
They could have used multiple underhanded moves to prevent this kind of investigation, but they didn't.
Good Job, Google.
The problem is that they are adults, but they don't act like it. All to often, a student will get a bad grade and complain that the professor just doesn't like them. The student begs the prof for extra credit, and if they don't get it, they cry to mommy. Then, the parents come along and scream at the dean until the grade is changed. This is becoming a MAJOR issue at most universities.
If they log the attendance, they have something to show the parents proving that the student is just being delinquent.
Everything has warning signs, so people are used to assuming things are safe unless posted otherwise. The city museum is slightly different. You have to assume (slightly) dangerous. If your kid can't handle a Steep slide, don't let them on it.
It took me a while to grasp the concept, let go and have fun. I have hit my head, I have almost gotten stuck, but that is why it is a Must See for any guest that visits St. Louis.
Thanks to everyone shutting down factories during the recession, there is a severe shortage of analog parts, electrolytic capacitors, and some FET's. It is typical to see a 4-8 week lead time on an order of 20k. A 16 week lead time makes you Very uncomfortable and you start looking for second sources or redesigns.
Some analog/digital companies are shipping at 16-24 week lead times.
Some electrolytic capacitors are at a 40 week lead time.
And at least one major company stopped accepting new orders.
In the mean time, some distributors are starting bidding wars on parts that they do have.
Right now, demand is far greater than the supply. It is going to be at least another year before prices start to come down.
RTFA.
A guy found it, played around with it, and the phone was remotely deactivated. He probably contacted Gizmoto and sold it to them.
Doesn't matter if they are dairy cows. Exercised cows = happy cows = better milk.
A caveAdmin could do it!
So... It was stolen data?
1 + 1 = 3, for large values of 1.
