Hey Joe, you have a tid bit of Ruke if your upper left hand corner.

[Bradstard]

They make an extended battery for the Droid X now. It's about 1mm thicker and adds about 30% to the battery life. I might pick one up tomorrow...







Someone still needs to help me find that Digital Frame from the previous page.

Hey Joe, you have a tid bit of Ruke if your upper left hand corner.

[Dave_B]

LOL, welcome to the technology age Joe.

[Doespike]

This thing is neat huhuhu

I would consider getting that battery as well. I'm curious what the out the door price is with the company discount.

I think I found a digital frame that will do this! It's the HP Dreamscreen 100 and 130. The 100 is a 10" and the 130 is a 13". Best price I have found is $129 for the 10" at TigerDirect.

Android Exploit on Rooted phones...

+1 for Apple?

[98spec022]

Jailbroken iPhones have had security issues discovered as well.

[Bradstard]

You AD credentials stored in clear text? That's just retarded!!! The 90's called and want their code back.

[Dave_B]

LMFAO!!!

Keep in mind, those that are "rooting" their android phones are doing so with code written by anyone (As in, anyone can write a custom ROM) so it's not being monitored or maintained IMO.

[Bradstard]

The root is not what is storing the credentials according to the article, it is what is allowing 3rd party apps access to the credentials.

[Dave_B]

Don't you think the ROM builder though could plug the exploit?

Harddrive crashed yesterday around noon with my dedicated server from inmotion hosting.
Literally took them 8 hours to get a new server setup for me get into, thought that was kinda ridiculous... Anybody else have any experience with them?
Thank god for having a good disaster recovery plan.

[Dave_B]

A hosting site doesn't have VM's? Should NOT take 8 hours period to get ya back up and running.

[98spec022]

Ideally it wouldn't take any time at all, but we all know things rarely ever go the way you plan them to

I haven't had any experience with inmotion, most of my uncomplicated web stuff is hosted at 1and1, and I host the rest of it on my home network.

Any webhost that is selling a "dedicated" plan will generally tell you if it's a virtual plan or not.

If it's a dedicated box in the true sense of the form you're normally assed out, 8 hours isn't a absolutely horrible response rate for a server with no redundancy.
