If you bought a TV, and the first thing it did was prompt for your credit card, would you actually do that?
Perhaps if it was a device specifically intended for use with electronically purchased copies of works of authorship, not a device primarily intended to decode and display HDMI or ATSC signals. A Kindle reader, for example, needs an Amazon account.
How can someone demonstrate that he is willing to pay for games without entering his payment credentials?
Setup with a noVNC web interfaces, and sshkey management in the web management panel (so users can employ their personal ssh keys post-deployment
[Unbalanced parentheses.] Which guide to configuring keys in popular SSH clients does your documentation link to?
However I was (redundantly) asking why someone who calls themselves a security professional and system administrator does not follow BP.
Because BP got hacked by Chinese? Naaah.
So how is an RP's operator supposed to know with which IDPs to register so as not to turn away a user who tries to log in with an OpenID identifier issued by an unsupported IDP?
Except solar panels lose power over time.
Not nearly as much as the haters assert.
Plus if you're moving away from the very star powering your craft, well then "forever" is not as long as you'd like.
If you are moving directly away, a solar sail would be more efficient.
Does this finally mean I'll be able to post replies to my own YouTube channel and other's videos?
I have my account, that predates Google taking YouTube over. I've resisted all these years going to G+ or giving them more information....but for that, Ihad to give up being able to post comments and replies not only to other peoples' videos, but even to my own.
This will be a welcome change if that works!!
Now, if they'd also do away with trying to occasionally "verify" your account with a phone call. I fear I"m gonna have to go get a disposable phone for that one day...but hey at least this is one step in the right direction.
I hadn't heard much of it lately.
They promised [...] freedom [...] for everyone to develop.
When I finally got mine, I turned it on and the first thing it did was ask for my credit card number. Tried to skip it but it was not possible.
If no one is willing to pay for games, then how should everyone keep a roof over their heads while developing games? Or by "freedom" did you mean free as in FSF, with all games having DFSG-free code and assets?
the user won't need to type in that 60-character password on their mobile device. The user can just unlock the password manager and paste in the saved password.
How would the user get the long password into the mobile device's password manager in the first place?
The password manager should run on the user's own PC
Provided the user has an own PC. Good luck logging in at a public library or Internet cafe.
If an app needs to perform an action on behalf of a user, it should get its own distinct, revocable API key.
And store this "own distinct, revocable API key" in what secure manner? Client applications distributed as free software have already run into problems with how to store an OAuth 1.0a or 2.0 client ID and client secret.
Yes, and how many of those apps ask for a copy of your address book ? I don't mind sharing if needed for a function, web privacy being a lost cause, but if you want to d/l my 5000 plus contact professional contact list, uh, NO.
Some people want to use a function that requires location; others don't. Some people want to use a function that requires the address book; others don't. If there are seven different permissions that can be used by an optional function, do you expect the developer to make 2^7 = 128 different apps, one for each specific combination of optional functions?
Start using my cell phone's data plan to download content for offline access when, because it's a cell phone, offline is 'rare'
How is the time between when you have used up the 2 GB quota and the end of the billing month "rare"?
A 1024x600 pixel netbook's screen is still physically larger than those phones. To actually read text on those without changing the layout, you'd need a magnifying glass. This is why the web browsers on these devices tend to interpret CSS 1px as 1.5, 2, or 3 actual pixels.
Some people must have a high tolerance for this sort of treatment.
If the alternative is unemployment, which leads to starvation due to inability to afford food and imprisonment due to violations of city sit-lie ordinances, a lot of people are willing to tolerate a lot of BS.
Tariffs that are there to prevent free trade shouldn't exist, they are immoral, they raise consumer prices and prevent good deals and hurt the people who are unable to pay more.
Everybody should be against tariffs that prevent free trade.
That part was contracted out to interns.
Well, that could be true...
I mean, they DO have a daughter, so they presumably did it at least once...but there have been many rumors that Hillary is more of a "vagitarian" that a penis fan...so...?
If all else fails, lower your standards.
