  1. Re:If someone gets your hashed password, you're do on Cheap GPUs Rendering Strong Passwords Useless · · Score: 2

    It is well known that if someone gets your hashed password, it is as good as cracked.

    Say what now? My passwords are 32 characters long, contain upper case lower case numbers and symbols, and are easy to remember. That creates a search space of 1.86 x 10^65 possible passwords. Have fun with your measly 3.3x10^9 passwords per second. The article considers a 7 character password to be secure. It isn't. Every additional character increases the search space by a factor of 95. Length matters.

    "All I want to know is who the man is that looked at a cow and said 'I think I drink from whatever comes out of those things when I squeeze them.'"

    Kinda like the native amercans who first smoked weed. How many weeds did they have to smoke before they got the right one?

  10. howsabout some wild speculation on Shut Down Metallica, Not Napster · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately, if the RIAA doesn't get their cut, they'll do everything in their power to stop any change from happening. exactly, does anyone really think metallica are smart enough to carry out this lawsuit themselves? the riaa is scared that the're losing their stranglehold on musicians and are coming off looking greedy by fighting napster themselves. so they pay metallica to do it because they've already whored away everything they had for money.

  11. Re:All about image, not about quality on Shut Down Metallica, Not Napster · · Score: 1

    it costs a lot more than $1 to make a cd. i can buy a blank cd for $1 but i'm not going to enjoy it much. recording, mastering, engineering, and whatever else is not free or even cheap. hell, it costs more to make a cassette tape than a cd because a tape has moving parts. you get what you pay for.
    on another note : you could have downloaded some of those new filter songs as mp3's and tried them out before forking over your money, but that would be stealing

  12. Re:How to destroy FreeNet? on FreeNet's Ian Clarke Answers Privacy Questions · · Score: 2

    Am I the only one bothered by the fact that we all have accepted that the FBI would try to stop the distribution of a document that US citizens have made "very popular." If its something we all want then we should have it.

  13. Re:True...but... on AOL + Time-Warner Worse Than Microsoft? · · Score: 2

    for a company to control the web they do not need to control web sites or search engines. all they need is the tool with which you view them. so we're all safe as long as the open source community doesn't get together and improve on an exsisting web browser, creating a really kick ass browser that Aol/Time-Warner can then buy up. 'till that happens the web is still free

  14. Re:Slashdot == Midvale School for the Gifted on Pirates Steal Negative $1,400,000,000 from Music Industry · · Score: 0

    it also shows how many readers actually read the articles these stories are linked to
    in my opinion /. is good for news but is otherwise generally content free

  15. I hear ya on Distributed.net CSC Success · · Score: 1

    I hear ya! I must have sent Seti 5 straight packets of data that I never got credit for. I tried to contact them to see if they at least got the packets, to know if I was at least making a contribution to the effort. I got no response. Well, if anyone else out there has a giant radio telescope and needs my spare cpu cycles then let me know.

  16. Re:any good? on Distributed.net CSC Success · · Score: 1

    I've got an even cooler project running on my computer. Its called Win98/Netscape. See what you do is you try and see how long you can keep the two running together without a crash. My best time so far is 17min. 42sec. And I challenge all of you to try and beat that time. Do you feel lucky? Well do you?

  17. Re:any good? on Distributed.net CSC Success · · Score: 2

    But what if radio signals are bad for their genetic makeup, which is why they don't use them and aren't answering our calls? Maybe Seti is killing them slowly! And all of us using the client are accomplices to murder. Maybe they're on their way here right now to kick our sorry little Seti-asses. Or maybe they're trying to mentally weaken us through TV(our great weakness.) Good example:Professional Wrestling. Or maybe radio waves are good for there libido, and they're coming here to thank us for helping to perpetuate their race. Or maybe its late and I need sleep.
