I don't get this psudo-nerd bragging right. I've worked jobs I hated and had dreams about them, too.

On my Google Play Nexus 4 I can either update Google Wallet, which wants new permissions, or I can sit there with the update notice forever, but I can't uninstall it.

Google Currents, Google+, Google Wallet, Google Drive, Google Hangouts, Keep, Movie Studio, News & Weather, Photos, Gallery, Play Movies & TV, Play Music, Play Newsstand, Play Store, Quickoffice, Voice Search, Calendar, Clock, Downloads

Really, it's just Google branded bloatware. Using a custom shell I hid ~75% of the applications inside the launcher because I can't uninstall them, and I don't use them, ever.

1 person to categorize each domain's content? The parent post was indicating the ludicracy of exactly this.

lol kk

Have the police at the station asking to see the name on the credit card people are swiping?

I'm not sure we allow that, for good reason.

Trolling is when they're not trying to be obvious... or I'm getting trolled right now... DAMN IT!

I believe this is now the only Apple product to not solder RAM directly to the board.

Sorry, my point was obscured because it ate my html. I was saying you could send a link like img src="http://10.10.10.10/things/delete?id=9" and that being in an email, gets sent with your auth cookies to the server and issues the delete without you realizing it.

In that sense it's a big plus for security, but also hurts your privacy like you're saying.

If I could likely deduce that inside our local software you owned an item with the id 9, I could email you:

Because the request goes out with your authorization cookie it'll executes successfully.

This is why you should only accept post requests for actions that change data and use xsrf tokens (that aren't stored in cookies, local storage, etc).

I've worked with designers that though more rules = more secure, which is the opposite of true. More rules = less key space.

40watts is how much power the charger is using, not how much the car really needs to idle.

You're taking a hit in the AC->DC conversion, you're also taking a crap shoot at what the batteries need for amperage/voltage. A float charge, for 12volt batteries, is 13 to 13.8 volts at whatever for amperage. ~2amps hitting the batteries sounds reasonable to me.

It's not different than having a battery charger on your start battery plugged in.

I lived off grid for a year on a battery based system. You get OCD about it.

My morality stops me from doing what's wrong. Fear of punishment is what stops me from breaking the law.

Laws are very [citation needed] in origin, they're not all based on morality or facts.

It's a small scale example of tragedy of the commons, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tragedy_of_the_commons

Much of your list is valid only because prostitution is illegal.

Pardon, you actually want the intercept, not no circuit, tone :)
