I'm the submitter. I'm a LastPass user and I'll stay that way. If you actually read the article you'll see that things are under control. This is the second time LastPass has reported an attack that I can remember, and because of the client-side encryption and so on it's not a huge deal. Bravo to them for their proactive stance and sound methods.

Fair point, they can be used as a BS number, but they are also awesome (I agree 100%).

I have to say, I found this post refreshing (and I don't think it's offtopic, as it has a tonne of replies ... maybe we need a new +1 'topic changing') as I expected to see nothing but people complaining about how it wasn't really 3D printing. :)

A GV phone number not forwarded to your number can only generate emails/text messages - you see one you want to deal with, you listen to the recorded message.

I completely get not dealing with a company with policies you don't approve of, but unless it is a moral objection, it is a trivial one to bypass with technology.

You could just give them a BS phone number (like a Google Voice number - one they can verify, but never actually call you at).

Palm (PalmOS, not WebOS) did this very well (and the way they did it would be trivial to copy).

I would *totally* buy a Nokia WebOS phone ...

Incidentally, how were you born on 8/00? :)

I have to live to be 7811 years old to get mine ... at least I'm not Jewish, then I'd have to live to be 65,905!

Yup, my ATI Rage was 4 upgraded to 8 :)

My mother was 30 when she had me (I'm not the eldest) and her mother was 28 (when she had my mother). Now her mother was 19 (when she had my grandmother, married at 18), but an average of over 25 years old for birth and my great-grandmother was alive when I was 19 (briefly, she passed that year). My eldest is 11 and my grandmother is still alive (I was 28 when she was born, increasing the average to almost 29).

TL;DR Lots of people know their great-grand parents without pre-teen pregnancies.

Oh, and yeah, my grandparents / great grandparents (only one of mine passed before I knew them) would never drop by unannounced. Heh, my father's father wouldn't even let the phone ring more than 3 times, thinking if you couldn't answer it that fast you were busy & he didn't want to intrude.

Duhno about buk above, but I got my Prime account free (just for 1 year & I prolly won't pay for it when it runs out, but I have it & didn't pay for it).

I'm impressed, 64MB RAM is pretty good for an early Pentium. You should be able to use the mouse and play MP3s, but make sure the screensaver is disabled (I remember when I finally retired my 486 DX 100 (99mhz), was because it took a Pentium to play MP3s). Good times.

Meh, it isn't science until you are tinkering with the DNA of the butterflies
