This isn't really a browser issue.
The browser is going "Show me that this cert is valid for paypal.com" and the CA is going "Here it is, for paypay.com" , at least as far as the browser is concerned.
This is no more a flaw then if the CA just started letting anyone buy certs for paypal.com.
Having multiple CAs (and cheap CAs) is a good thing, but we're only ever secure with ssl as the least secure CA.
As far as I understand, it's more like:
* Browser gets cert for Paypal.com\0.badguy.com from the server
* Browser reads domain from cert, but does so invalidly, and only gets Paypal.com
* etc
Now I'm looking at keeping my Sanza Fuze and Nokia E51. Apple can get fucked.
Your Fuze gets feature-rich updates often?
Point being — I find it somewhat strange that when Apple charges for an update, it's somehow worse than the competitors who don't offer any of the features, free or otherwise.
The upgrade to 3.0 is free.
not for iPod touches.
But when are they going to patch these security flaws on my 2.1 ipod? Paying for an update is ridiculous, especially when it fixes critical security flaws. I sure hope apple does the right thing.
Sure, paying for a security update alone is a bit strange, but really — it's only $10 and gives you so much more. Besides, it's not like your iPod has been taken over by viruses due to the bugs.
What I meant is that for 99% of the people a *new* file system doesn't create any new value.
e.g. - Time Machine is already an existing feature, improving the back-end by using ZFS is an unimportant change.
Snow Leopard is about performance and optimization. A new file system would fall under new features.
There are other new features as well. Also, a new file system would be an update to the existing one, no?
(That doesn't mean ZFS will be there)
The question is: why is Apple so quiet about rolling this update out and what it fixes, and since when does a minor Safari update require a reboot?!!
I'm not sure (lousy memory etc), but I believe (some) previous Safari updates have required a reboot too. It might have something to do with the Webkit engine being used by apps other than Safari
Youporn.com has done something right, then. Seeking to the 75% mark of a video (before any buffering) jumps to and loads quite quickly and easily.
