Does CC work for software? I thought it was only for artistic works (though one could argue that software was artistic, I suppose)-wraith808 (September 19, 2012, 10:44 PM)
Lmfao, there was actually no other purpose to this thread, than to annoy mouser. A fun bi-product was all the replies haha-Stephen66515 (September 18, 2012, 12:36 PM)
I saw a portable app some time ago (can't remember where) that generated a very long and complex password out of a passphrase and a number you keyed into it. So if you entered something like: Eta kooram nah smech, and a number like: 314159 it would return a string like: r=+-~/[$=a^LADwR0t%W&JT011\b9^A~qrIgvvC]_tgY&f,P0;cO*ZfwD`r&(c. You could then copy and paste it as needed.
You could specify the length of the generated string. And there were checkboxes to select what type of characters (i.e UC, LC, number, symbol) to allow in the string.
Anybody know the name of this app?-40hz (September 19, 2012, 01:17 PM)
You want necro-posting? Someone find me the Trip Hawkins quote for High Heat Baseball. I can't find that in Google anywhere.-Paul Keith (September 18, 2012, 09:52 PM)

Speaking of spam, anyone had trouble with spam text-messages being sent to your cell #? If so, were you able to make it stop and how?-kyrathaba (September 17, 2012, 07:00 PM)
Pretty much all of the spam I have ever had has been from the carrier.-Renegade (September 17, 2012, 07:41 PM)
Also a lot of spam and junk mail comes from compromised web hosting accounts. Even if you successfully pick out the real return address, the account is not monitored at all.-SeraphimLabs (September 17, 2012, 06:21 AM)
You're only as private as the least secure link anywhere in the chain. I've known people spend years enjoying isolated identities on the web only to have them come crashing down with one bit of carelessness in a message, forum post, or account registration that allowed something to link back to them. It's ultimately a losing battle. Because the web was not designed for privacy. If anything, the fundamental idea behind the web was absolute open access. Just because e-commerce and online banking got bolted onto it after the fact because the Internet` was just too easy a way to get access to a global data communications infrastructure for peanuts didn't change anything. Privacy and security has to be designed in to the core if there's even a chance it will provide some reasonable degree of functionality.
Like was said in Fight Club: On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.-40hz (September 15, 2012, 02:41 PM)
I don't think this happens with facebook only. I have linkedin and Google+ sending emails on behalf of me for invite. Linked In still does on random basis and so do other social or say portal networks.-mahesh2k (September 15, 2012, 03:24 PM)
Not sure what to say.
I wonder how much of Apple and Facebook's revenue comes from the NSA...-Renegade (September 15, 2012, 01:42 PM)
My real name only exists in about four places on that email account and it's purposely different from this "Web Brand" that has all of my web posts.
