I use Facebook for my friends. Why wouldn't I add my real contact details? I'm not afraid of my friends.

I thought 'unconstitutional' was defined by pundits, politicians and commenters who didn't like the latest policy du jour by Guy In Charge?

I've only seen the movie, in which they're not. Given the Victorian origins of the book though, that makes sense.

I recommend the movie too. There's 2 of them, make sure you watch the half hour one with Martin Sheen, Michael York and Kristen Bell: http://www.flatlandthemovie.com The full length 95 minute one is less favorably held.

If a third party or government wanted to infiltrate the email or other service provider of a business they were interested in, then it doesn't matter if they're Google or another provider. They'd go after whoever has the data. I would actua

Relax. Breathe. Take a walk through a park and smell the roses. Don't let the fear and negative thoughts cloud your head constantly and ask yourself how you can be positive and productive, without polluting the conversation with baseless do

It's not that I don't care... I just don't see the scenario were Google would care about my dirt specifically or do anything with it like blackmail me (not that there's really much worth blackmailing me with there). It would be very hard fo

Who honestly believes that Google would snoop around in the email accounts of competing businesses? How removed from reality and driven by paranoia do you have to be to think that? I assume, jacquesm, that you were simply putting together s

I never thought the new Mac app store would have free non demo apps. In realize that the iOS store has free apps, but there, it's the only way to get apps onto the phone for most people.

On a side note, I remember growing up in the early 80ies, travelling by plane with my Dad who worked for IBM and he would sometimes bring these giant tape spools with him in his luggage. I guess flying across the country with them was faste

I took one look at the sideburns and thought this can't possibly be real. It had to be a well done (and amusing) hoax. I was about 60% sure someone got access to a preserved data center that's now a museum, raided the Mad Men wardrobe and t

@cma: you mean I couldn't verify the identity of the router upfront and might handshake with someone pretending to be it? I figured you could tell by the SSID of who you're connected too if it's the right one, assuming the official one isn'

I don't really know enough about this stuff, but couldn't you just generate some kind of temporary encryption credentials upon the initial wifi connection handshake and use that for the duration of the session? I've always assumed that the

My email from teamhint was in my Gmail spam folder. If there weren't a nugget of truth in this, this phrase from the email would actually be hilarious: "We HIGHLY recommend you change all of your online passwords as a precaution." Thankfull
