I think this was published around 1996 or so. At the time, my co-workers enlarged it to 11x17 on the copier and stuck it to my office door. What do you suppose they were trying to tell me?

Then a few years later they did this one...
Here's a philosophical question:
Suppose an alien super-race landed on Earth and you were they only person they talked to. They gave you a device which could cure all disease, end all famine, and create world peace. Would you:
a. Give it to the president of the US
b. Give it to the pope
c. Ask your friends what to do with it
d. Take it apart
Take it apart.
Here is why:
a. If we had world peace our president would never get re-elected - so he's never use it.
b. The pope - same reason as above.
c. my friends would try to make it into a bong of some sort
d. At least I would get to have fun with it - and maybe if it can cure disase, famine and war it could teach my wife to cook with a little tweaking....

You may have heard some of us talk about our mysterious day-jobs. Now is the time for us to tell what we've been working on. We've been creating an encrypted telephone, in software, on the XDA.
The following links tell more:
http://www.cryptophone.de
http://news.com.com/2100-1029-5109327.html
http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&edition=us&q=cryptophone
thumbs up
That's impressive.
Good work ... do not have such a requirement for now but it's good to be out there.
And since "our" developers are in front line ... it's even better.
Decebal
This CryptoPhone reminded me about a question I 4got to ask...
When ever i make a call, for about the first 5 seconds (sumtimes longer or shorter)... I can hear other ppls conversations....so i was wondering, is there any software to make the device into sum sort of scanner? 8)
I dont think I will be ordering one as the price seems to be aimed at industrialist multi millionaires and the like. I do admire the fact that the spooks have no access but I dont know how long that will last as I am sure that as we speak some beaurocrat is wording the legislation to outlaw it on the basis that it threatens security or some such nonsense.
Hi,
Few days ago I noticed that when I wanted to accept or cancelled some pop-ups, or when I was writting I had no more the accuracy I used to.
First I thought it should be an ICS issue, but then I realized that this lack of accuracy was only on a specific zone of the screen, so I decided to activate one of the Developer options, the Pointer location one, to asure it was a concrete zone and this is what I found out:

}
As you can see, there's a zone where you can drag(sometimes) but, as it is shown in the last picture, instead of one single touch it makes to right out of the zone.
I have to say that the mobile hasn't suffered any falls nor hits.
So I'd like to know if anyone else has suffered this problem or if someone has any possible solution.
If not, I'm afraid I'll have to send it to repair so I take advantage of the thread to ask if someone knows if I'll have trouble to send it because I bought it to a swiss guy(which sent me the bill too) and I'm from Spain...
Any help is grateful,
greetings!
P.S: The last thing I flashed or installed was days before this started to happen
Bringing it up...
Hi all,
I am new here on this forum, but I like to introduce my new app for football(soccer) service.
I played with design on this app because I like ModernUI (metro) and I will really appreciate when you comment on this.
Here is small description of it:
This application is for real football (soccer) fans.
It offers you to see many leagues and international competitions that are played in more than 130 countries. You can also select different competitions for country that you prefer and see the detail about table, scheduled matches or top scorers.
Because of great details of matches (as for example goals, cards, penalties and so on) you can stay informed for the whole time of the LIVE game. And just in case you miss your match - you can easily find facts about it in any date.
Data for this application are preparing in a special way so it means that you don´t have to wait for results any more. It is pretty fast and it doesn´t consume data that much.

Well it nothing but a watch face which runs backwards. See how much time left in the day.
Why should you even use this ?
1. Well there are some days you just want to end.
2. Take 2 seconds when someone asks you the time.
3. Look cool when someone points out your time is wrong. make em look stupid instead.
4. Keep up with you math skills throughout the day with constant subtractions.
5. Race against time.
6. Make a life changing decision.
Still not satisfied , look at these reviews :
"Makes you the master of time." - wifehacker.com
"The future is the past, The past is the future." - androidsorority.com
"Time Travel made easy." - scienceyesterday.com
