No, my point was app is short for application and people have been using it as such for yars. Tweak is short for nothing.
And then there would be no argument because tweak isn't short for anything else, like app is short for application. So maybe they would be all over apples ass, but the reason people are all over app store is because its a natural progression. Even pencil-neck generalized it himself. People would be all over tweak store to ride the fame.
They are all over app store because that's descriptive, not inovative.
And if they had used tweak store, there would be no argument against it, because people don't call applications "tweaks" for short, they call applications "apps" for short.
Back in the 90's, a buddy of mine always talked about "killer apps." He was a coder, so he was always on the lookout for the "killer app" to give him new ideas for markets to look into. He was always ahead of the curve of Java, XML & XSLT, vbscript, C#, etc. Bear in mind this is the 90's, and in 1996-7 XML and vbscript were fresh from being a white paper. Killer apps were his holy grail, always looking into these new languages as they might finally allow him to have that one killer app that no one could do without.
Guess he was ignorant of the actual usage as he wasn't aware that Turtleneck-boy was going to "popularize" the term "app" in the 00's.
Duh. That is exactly the victory Lulzsec is interested in.
The sites AREN'T SECURE. That's the entire point from day one. They are making it abundantly clear that the sites need to be hardened more than they think/assume they are. They are showing people that you shouldn't just trust a big name company with all of your info/data because if they don't execute due diligence your data is as good as open to everyone.
It doesn't make them look bad, it makes the sites they've taken down look bad.
Yes, you see, there's a button named report on every post. It allows the community to flag messages. After a certain threshold, they are hidden. What you already learned for yourself is that anyone can see these hidden messages by clicking on them. This is apparent since you copy and pasted them. Or did you not realize that everyone, not just you, can make that choice?
The internet is a vast frontier, don't get worked up over nothin, pal.

After it reaches a certain threshold of votes, it is "hidden", but since you are new here, you haven't figured out that even the regulars know that if they click on a hidden comment they can see it for themselves. Oh wait, you already did since you copy and pasted them. Thanks, we couldn't have figured it out on our own.

Its kinda the whole point of something called free speech. One very important aspect of free speech is ***allowing speech you do not like***. In this case the EFF is obviously coming out on top (And so is DemandProgress for that matter).
That is the very foundation of free speech. Dissenting opinion. To voice grievances. Sound familiar?
So yes, the EFF allows anyone to say whatever they want. Because even allowing the opposing opinion is more just than dictating what you should say (and therefor, think).
And you think this is a bad thing? You're trying to paint this as some kind of problem for the EFF? you think this is going to hold us back, because the 5 people you might get to go to the site out of the hundreds of thousands might post a differing opinion?
Yes, because really all they've done is just brought more attention to this fact. So in the end, what will getting a defamation suit won really do? Identify/punish an anonymous critic AND the fact you are trying to hide becomes well known to many more people.
Unless of course it is false, but they will have to prove this is not the case, perhaps?

It does not download anything to your PC at work, unless you are using an app that I'm not aware of yet outside of the Music Manager and the android app (and the google music website). Unless you put the Music manager on your work PC and it sync'd that way? (Haven't tried that yet)
It IS stuck in the cloud, unless you use the Android app, as ChronoTrigger has pointed out.. (Or you are doing something we haven't tried yet)
As for the files, /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.music/cache/music is the folder you are looking for.
On the digital feature/content systems I've worked on, the movie files are typically DRM'd. In the lab I work in, the feature (movie) player is separate from the content (ads, inter-movie slideshows) player which is separate from the projector.
The Feature player was the unit that was locked down to the nth degree. They even had to make special baffles for the vents so that people couldn't disable or short the case open switch. (Which in the first design was rather simple to bypass) They have security stickers on the enclosure. Everything on the drive is encrypted. In order for the system to work they needed to be activated before being shipped out, which involves connecting it to a server (I assume for encryption certificates and such).
The content player was an off the shelf PC with no security outside of a login. The only thing special it had was a decoder board or high end audio board. It used a standard nVidia video card.
The Projector was only locked with a key. Maybe to keep the $800 bulbs from being stolen.
It does not surprise me that the projector (if it is an all in one player/projector) is locked down.
