sure you can - just use "rsync ignore-existing" . Might be slightly inconvenient, but people who use command line switches should generally be able to figure this stuff out?

At least it's easy to set separate boot and unlock passwords on Android. I'm not sure how likely it is for the police to keep the phone turned on, but to remove the SIM on most of them you'd have to remove the battery, which

If you can upgrade a Touch ID enabled iPhone from Recovery Mode (you can), then yes, you can upgrade SE fw without unlocking first.

Sure - until you realize IMEI is a baseband ID and you can desolder tha baseband IC and use it on all phones you need access to. Heck - you can probably just intercept and change the output of 'get IMEI' command - it's not li

You certainly can - you can try it out yourself by rebooting the phone while connected to USB with Home button pressed - it will reboot to the Recovery mode that (since iTunes 12 AFAIR) allows you to choose between update and restore. Shoul

Oh really? iOS has page-based executable code hash/signing since at least iOS 2 (2008); Android still doesn't have any runtime code integrity protections.

Do you seriously expect Samsung to come up with something like that? Because here's what they are shipping so far: http://uk.businessinsider.com/android-phones-fingerprint-sca...

Is that really necessary? With a fleet car, a replacement comes soon enough, and the towing vehicle can pick up the broken one. With personal SDCs, it's probably the same, with the possible exception of the replacement car being the sa

This is all so very wrong: - it's all liquid at very high pressures, so the pressure guarantees a steady stream of new matter to feed to the hole - even if by some miracle there was a material strong enough to hold the pressure (and te

Fixed 1 second of braking time won't save you if the front car hits an immobile object. The correct formula would be (1 + .046 mph) seconds [0], where mph is speed in miles per hour. It evaluates to 3.76s at 60mph and at 4.9s 85. Note
