    32 blank word .docx's to be exact - 16,384 / 512 = 32

  5. Re:No data is actually encrypted..... on Ransomware Making a Comeback · · Score: 1

    Kaspersky's Kamluk says that "Pushing [the] reset/power button on your desktop may save a significant amount of your valuable data!"

    Such insightful precautions from teh [sic] professionals! Their advice goes completely against the fact that no data is encrypted.

    Reading and writing a 512 byte MBR obviously takes less time than encrypting all your user documents. That is smaller than the size of a new, blank word doc (in the new compressed .docx format!)

    Nobody would hit that power button fast enough.

  13. Re:A major "con" of cloning falls apart on Dolly the Sheep Alive Again · · Score: 1

  17. Re:"Sex crimes" on Interpol Issues Wanted Notice For Julian Assange · · Score: 1

    It's not that he did not want to talk to the authorities, he even (repeatedly) offered to cooperate with local investigators.

    The problem was the U.S. prosecutor is trying to lure him out of neutral ground, so that when on U.S. ground (and jurisdiction) they can do what they want without U.N. questioning motives.

    Would you walk into a bandit's lair to negotiate their demands on their terms on their grounds, when you know they have no issue waging war for whatever they want? (albeit under the false pretense of their protecting their own asses)

    I wouldn't. I'd send a messenger.

  18. Re:Legit? on Interpol Issues Wanted Notice For Julian Assange · · Score: 1

    That he is. Though raise your hand if you think the gov started it first. *raise*

  19. Mind Hacking on Linux Radio · · Score: 1

    With the right wording, we can hack into your brain!

  20. Re:"Binary files"? on Linux Radio · · Score: 1

    An interesting yet pointless experiment is importing various binary files into Audacity as RAW audio. Interesting because some file types produce sometimes similar, sometimes predictable, and sometimes catchy sounds.

    Notably file types that contain header and other structured meta info. It's also a great way to procrastinate.

  21. Re:i don't understand on Linux Radio · · Score: 1
  22. Decoded! on Linux Radio · · Score: 1

    I got crypto/deflate.c, so much of deflates, asterisks and cmp!

    This reminds me of www.codeorgan.org

  23. Re:Can we get a sultry female voice instead? on Linux Radio · · Score: 1
