You're right about industry best practices for hygiene, cost, and implicitly energy use and environmental impact, but,
It's not fucking Tony Blair you piece of shit britbong.
I believe the suggestion was a parallel diode that would be reverse-biased in normal operation. If a cable was connected with the polarity swapped, it would clamp the negative voltage and trigger the overcurrent protection on the driving end.
In practice though, I though GPG was used to encrypt a randomly generated AES key, because symmetric ciphers are much faster than most asymmetric ones. There's no way to conduct a chosen plaintext attack, because the plaintext is a tiny fragment of random data with no particular significance.
Compressible data should never hit disk. For your scheme to work, the OS's encryption layer would have to detect runs of your magic byte and send them through unencrypted. Much easier to just use an out-of-band method like TRIM.
I don't. Every time I open an app on my phone, it has a non-negligible probability of causing some other app from being evicted from memory. Web pages seem to be mostly immune to this problem. I tried several different Reddit apps, but I always end up going back to browsing Reddit with Firefox, because it's so much less of a hassle to pop open another tab and look something up on google or Wikipedia.
A lot of the old apps are still there, windows key + r then typing calc.exe and enter will run the old one still IIRC, but that makes it about as user friendly as Linux:p
This is not so. Linux did away with file extensions for executable programs years ago. =P
it takes approximately 1 second longer to resume from hibernate than from sleep
Are you sure it's actually resuming from hibernation and not hybrid suspend? Even with a fast SSD, reading a moderately sized memory dump back in could take more than 10 seconds.
No need. S3 suspend has been a universally available feature for over 5 years (and nearly universal before that). Just run pm-suspend and your power consumption will drop below 10W, with no loss of working state.
sometimes I have to type twice to hit the correct %^*( character
Why are you using those in passwords? Just make it longer. Remember, if you have to hit the shift key, you could type two characters instead and have a far stronger password.

Those records could be very edifying to the public. I do understand that it might necessarily be a slow-ass I2P torrent, for legal reasons.
Yes it's called augmented proportional navigation and it's been known for decades.
If anyone does it *once*, then we can start worrying about what happens if it's done enough times.
Alternately, just disable hinting. Hinting is a menace.

The word you are looking for is "through".
The machine from 2005 isn't even enough for web browsing, though.
Black market Starbucks. Now I've seen everything.

The games I tried work well on high settings
You are either mistaken or lying. There is no way in hell you are playing games on high settings on a 2560x1440 display with a laptop graphics card.

Does humanity have value? Yes, I've decided that it does.
Well that's a silly assumption...

Adblock Plus works just fine in Firefox mobile.
The Windows key has summoned the start menu since XP at least.

All 6 of the hobbyists that actually did so will be very glad to hear of that change.

Oh god please no. Windows' text rendering looks terrible.
If we go by memory footprint, Chrome is Eclipse.
Use Firefox sync to keep your profiles the same?
