Agreed. The food in at the CERN restaurant is often terrible. And most of the time its not even hot. You would think they could use some sort of tiny waves, or micro radiation to at least heat it up properly.
I am really tired of hearing such crap. Poor Einstein has so many falsehoods spread about him all the time (like he belived in God, and there it must be true. Classical creationist stuff).
Einstein studied at the ETH Zuerich and had a degree in physics before working at the patents office. It say so in the wikipedia articl, only 3 lines above the patent office part.
What are people trying to prove with such statements? That you don't have to have a certain talent or put in hard work for some endeavours of the human mind, so they could do it to if they choose to?
Even information is not transmitted as machine readable text, but as graphics instead (at least over SSH it is text for sure, and a simlpe script will send you large amounts of data easily, even if you remove scp from the server), a modified client can still easily do OCR to get the text back, and even scroll through the data automatically. A little harder than just copying a file, but not really rocket science either. So you scheme helps against carelessness, but not malicious intentions.
Btw, I wasn't refering to you post. I just had the urge to say something smart and utterly useless;-).
If you can see the data, you can copy them ( data is plural I've been told lately ). There is not much you can do about it. If you don't trust the other side, all the authentication and encryption in the world won't help you.

200 kWh per day???? I use 4000 a YEAR acording to my electricity bill. Granted it is only a 2 person household, but that is a factor of nearly 20.
But they didn't sue the users. They sued the guy who created the bot!
So Glider should be integrated into the OS. Problem solved.

That's what fingerprints are for. Just pushes the problem one step further, but they are short enough to somewhat reliably compare them by hand.

You should rot-13 twice. Twice the security.
So when do I get my membership card for the 'don't read, just post' club?
