> Sadly, pirates don't actually convince their friends to buy it. They help them pirate it. Pirating software is often a pain - find a proper release, install, replace a binary, generate a key, avoid online services, seek out cracked up

Thanks to both of you. Munged caller ID is definitely not a deal-breaker for me.

I've previously setup Elastix (Asterisk/FreePBX distro) on a VPS for another business - price was right on the DIDs and minutes, but making it work nicely on VPS, learning Asterisk+FreePBX quirks, and keeping everything up to date quickly b

Between your comments, brl's, and the JSF paper, its clear enough how this works now. Thanks. I still suspect this is being overhyped. Being able to forge the auth cookie 100% of the time doesn't change the fact that you need a server-recog

It isn't at all clear how getting the default generic YSOD is going to generate "more data" for the attacker by repetition, unless response time is the data of interest. Is that the case here?

To be fair, the "millions" does seem quite hyperbolic, at least insofar as it assumes every ASP.NET app will be in grave and imminent danger. Plenty of ASP.NET devs don't use cookies at all beyond the default behavior, which is to track ses

Google hasn't even managed to accept Canadian developers into the Android marketplace, despite having multiple operations there - they either aren't trying very hard, or they are just really, astonishingly bad at this stuff.

I'm skeptical of the assumption made in so many of these articles: that Google will surely be annihilated by Facebook if they don't act quickly to usurp their social networking crown. Social networks come, and social networks go. Sure, Face

The author voluntarily removed the applications from the Market prior to the remote removals. I'm having some difficulty making the leap from this incident to being worried about Google removing "any and all applications from the users' han

I'm not aware of any reason why Froyo won't run perfectly well on that G1 in time - Eclair builds are fairly snappy on it. If JIT is do-able on G1, Froyo may well get more mileage out of this hardware. Mobile providers won't waste the time

Surely you jest. Word can be coerced into making great print documents. Not as good as applications focused on print, sure, but orders of magnitude better than gdocs.

Google Docs is great for some purposes. If you just want to get information down in a basic structured manner for sharing and collaborating on, it's perfectly adequate. I use it frequently for internal material. But when you care about pres

Not the same MSDN subscription - no development licenses for Office, many server products, etc. See e.g. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/subscriptionsc... But yes, still insane.
