From: SpaceMarine on 17 Mar 2010 12:41 so a common request by the non-diehard mac user is, "How do I enable password authentication on Mail?" to which the dedicated chime in, "Simple: Log off and don't let anybody ever touch your Mac without direct adult supervision!" while that may be a fine technical solution, sadly it is not a practical one. as we enter the era of appliance computing and coffee-table devices, i am curious: how do you think Apple will solution security? email holds private personal information. i believe multiple users logging off/on is not supported on a device like the iPad. but clearly there is Mail on the iPad. unlike the iPhone, clearly also this device is meant to be left unsupervised in the household, where guests may be flipping thru photos or whatnot. so then, how will Mail be updated to support this security risk scenario? will they finally enable mailbox authentication? or stick to the naive notion that the account-owner will be always be overseeing his toys? whatcha think.

People will be slower to pick up on your illiteracy.

People will be slower to pick up on your illiteracy. I like "gifted" as in "he gifted me with a small amount of extremely powerful weed." These things are invented by the lower middle classes to make themselves feel better educated. Going forward, 365/24/7, we need to actualize some broad-based methods of empowerment. Or mothers of invention, I guess. -- Very old woody beets will never cook tender. -- Fannie Farmer |
