Sure, but 1024 RSA doesn't take us years to crack. It doesn't even take us decades to crack. Our grandchildren won't be alive to see the code finish. The NSA is good, but they're living in the same universe as the rest of us.
I'm not commenting on the physicist's plans, I'm commenting on the guy who's getting all his information from Star Trek. I'm sure the people doing the experiment know what they're doing.
Two things. First, what is holding your vacuum in? Some sort of container, I'll bet. Like a tube. Second, it seems to me that if you're holding it in place magnetically, it'll be hard to discern gravity's effect.
More trouble than it's worth, you've got to hide the body, and answer a bunch of questions from the police, and it's all a pain in the ass. Much easier just to throttle his bandwidth.
In Revision3's case, the people running trackers are the copyright holders. MediaDefender acted without permission to break into their systems, then DoS them when the hole got closed.
This is like if I had a broken lock on my back door, didn't realize it, and some guy kept breaking into my house day after day. Then, when I finally realized what was going on, and replaced the lock, he nailed all my doors shut and boarded up my windows.
It's not about eBay's online auctions, it's about how you pay for the things you buy in one of the largest online markets. Google Checkout -is- in direct competition with PayPal, and the new policy for PayPal only could be trouble.
You assume that twitter is attempting to support free software, and is doing it poorly. I think it's much more likely that he's attempting to poorly support free software, and is performing that task admirably.
Don't forget that Bangladesh had a military coup a little over a year ago, and 2 ex-prime ministers, among others, are now in jail on corruption charges. For India, this is the equivalent of being a drug dealer, and seeing your pot-growing neighbor get raided by a SWAT team. Damn right the government there is going to be worried about militia groups.
Please, allow me to translate his comment from jerk to English.
Good for you, to be able to manage 1%. Unfortunately, for most Americans, it's closer to 10%, if not higher, and even if we can cut out all extraneous driving, going to work is getting less and less profitable due to the increased costs of going. I respectfully disagree with your position that our sharply rising fuel costs are not going to increase the costs of transported goods, but even if that is the case, the supply of money people have to buy said goods is going down. This -is- a problem, and it's a problem that's going to affect just about everyone.
Would you have a problem with someone using MythTV or Tivo or something like that to record a show from TV? Why is using bittorrent to record that same show from a different source worse?
Agreed on movies, though, which is why I don't do it.
I work as a technician, and I've seen a fair number of power supply deaths, including one truly bizarre power supply that failed in such a way that it now kills motherboards. Usually they're either old or crappy, usually both.
For me it's that it's so easy to run through a fast food place on the way out to or back from clients. I finally ended up suborning a cupboard and hauling in a mini-fridge, saves money and time.
And if it's worth that much to you, you should be willing to accept the punishment for breaking said law. The whole point of civil disobedience is that it is worth more to you to break this law than it is to not pay a fine or visit prison.

This security system increases the ease of flagging unauthorized content almost as much as it increases the ease of accessing unauthorized content.

That was America participating in Europe's war.
Yeah, as much as I hate to give up up-mods, he's right. Can you guys at least slap the funny on before the overrated this time?
Young, hot stars, for one.
Blowjobs for another.
It's super effective!

Looks photoshopped.

Probably because neither pure democracy or pure communism are actually viable.
Succinctly and precisely describe the color blue, without resorting to wavelengths, as that's definition, not description. Or music. Or love.
That's a big Twinkie.
I prefer paper, so I do get extra value from the non-digital reproductions which have a non-zero cost of replication. Trade. Not donation.
That's a different kind of brute force attack.

Just because I believe in our system of laws doesn't mean I don't lock my door.
