Put your mercurial/git repo in your dropbox! Remote backups + versioning. What I've never understood is why version control systems cannot just detect if a file has been deleted automatically and remove it from the repo automatically. And

If i was a politician, I could spin it as "Catching Real Sex Offenders Act" where I would refocus the list towards the "scary types" and put the the frivolous ones on a second tier (drunk guy pissing on a wall, kids doing stupid things) or

Why wouldn't a diesel car have an alternator? You need to generate electricity for all the electrical systems (lights, ac, radio, etc). And instead of spark plugs, you have glow plugs with diesels.

It's a recent can&usa thing (was introduced in canada several months ago). It's very likely just a scheme to coerce most subscribers to get a text messaging plan and boost their ARPU by $3 to $10 dollars, since all of the 'plans' have
