It should be GNU, not Debian. Glibc is very much a GNU project. How do people not know GlibC is a GNU project?

The idea behind the "Stringent SSL verification process" is that customers will pay a brand-name-trusted CA company to verify the SSL request is from who they claim to be.

Even at *TEN THOUSAND* USD/EUR/GBP/etc per fake certificate, the price is too good for countries like Iran, China, etc for engaging in MITM attacks.

The whole process is a scam outright....

.... and have him help them optimize their ROM images and the experience presented. Lets hope they don't hire him to help them lock down their ROMs, bootloaders, etc some more ....

MacOS classic had co-operative multitasking, and yes, it sucked. It sucked hard. It was a huge technical reason to dump the classic stuff and go with OS-X.

With the impending crApple litigation, one could assume that arming themselves with some "patent investments" would be top priority for HTC.

That being said, I think HTC is fine making phones for Android and WM6/7/etc. In fact, I wonder if one day HTC will make Maemo/Meego phones...

Funny, by blocking ads and still visiting the site you are costing the content provider money. You don't seem to have a problem with that. If the ads bother you that much, the solution is much simpler than using adblocking software. Just don't visit that site.

Gotta love our ability to spit on our friends

That would indeed be the correct course of action, were it not for the fact that the government has a rather spotted history of providing the public with good research on the dangers of drugs. The perception of the public that drugs are dangerous is based, for a large part, on government funded research, and the government seems to be rather keen on finding something wrong with the drugs they're actively trying to ban.

As public policy expert Mark Kleiman once said: "There is a very, very heavy cost to the process of devaluing information that comes from the government. Lincoln was right. Government trust is a precious resource and there's a question about how much of it we want to squander in telling kids not to use drugs."

Did your cat calm down? Thanks...... You are the cheapest therapist I have ever seen. I think that is a typical Eric comment, I am glad you can see past the shroud. Have a great day!

Good morning. I haven't heard from you in a while. I'll try one more time and I suppose I will take the hint if you don't page me back. Have a good day. Todd
