No. 160^8 would be if your password was 64 chars long, taking eight 8-character blocks. The idea is that the characters are next to each other (although, as some posters pointed out, you can consider the list as a 2D matrix, not a string and get far more combinations)
That looks like a list of phone numbers with an abnormally high concentration of 32s and 69s, but it actually says "blow up the whitehouse on saturday". Go steganography!
Number of one-character passwords: 1280 (actually it's even less but stay with me) Number of two-character passwords: 1279 Number of three-character passwords: 1278 Number of 100-character passwords: 1180 Number of 1280-character passwords: 1
Total number of passwords = 1 + 2 + 3 +... + 1280 = (1638400 + 1280) / 2 = 819840 passwords
Not that good, actually. And if you limit password length to 64 characters, you get only 79904 passwords (equivalent to a three-letter password using lowercase, numbers and simple punctuation only)
A lot of code is voluntarily handed over to some magical GPL entity since the author doesn't have the time/resources to enforce it himself. My magical GPL entity, I of course mean the FSF.
And that's just executions. Due to the inherent irreversibility of the punishment, people tend to apply higher standards of proof to it. In prisons, there are more people who are innocent (far more if you count people in jail for things that really shouldn't be criminal).
That's not the worst. There are stories of medical systems running Windows, connected to the internet, and shutting down at one point because of an autorestart from Windows Update.
I did read about the people you're talking about. While raping and attempting to murder an 8-year-old is pretty horrible, I don't see why a society that doesn't practice the death penalty should make an exception for them - they're clearly mentally unfit and need help, not the needle/chair/bullet. And, of course, persecuting child-related sex offenders gets innocent people a lot more than it does hardcore crazies.
Except 99%+ of people who are sex offenders in a way relating to minors didn't actually do anything that any of us would consider objectionable (eg. a 17 year old having sex with an 18 year old, a 16 year old uploading nude photos of herself, making or spreading photoshop child porn whose creation doesn't harm anyone, accidentally clicking the wrong link and not knowing what a browser cache is and how to clear it, etc)
We're at $12 trillion already, how exactly are we going to pay for this? Sooner or later, the economy will improve, interest rates will go up, and the only way we'll get out is by printing trillions and trillions of dollars to give to China, Japan and the others, effectively ending the US dollar's role as a currency (and a whole host of other consequences).

At least it doesn't have fear, surprise or efficiency. It is pretty ruthless though. And fanatically devoted to the pope.
I think you're mixing up trademark infringement with copyright infringement (which some people call piracy). Trademark infringement is when someone makes a cheap knockoff good with your logo on it, Copyright infringement is when someone redistributes your media.

I prefer phone numbers
Wife: 667 670 8732
Mother: 858 032 8472
Father: 693 287 7273
Son: 846 972 7985
Daughter: 836 932 7978
Boss: 328 365 8485
Coworker: 826 865 8932

I pick a simple easy-to-remember password and when I type it in I switch the keyboard layout to Dvorak. So "hunter2" becomes "dgby.p2".
But a Greek can easily get in.
One of my (now defunct) email passwords is "epic thirty five character password".
160 characters * 8 letters = 1280 characters.
Number of one-character passwords: 1280 (actually it's even less but stay with me)
Number of two-character passwords: 1279
Number of three-character passwords: 1278
Number of 100-character passwords: 1180
Number of 1280-character passwords: 1
Total number of passwords = 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 1280 = (1638400 + 1280) / 2 = 819840 passwords

At least 3 moderators disagree with you.
No, everything will be (squeaky voice) fine.
And think of the children they could have annihilated!
What bing vulnerability?
I think the man whom made that sig was deliberately doing that.
Put the thing into the other thing. Got it.

Legalizing the ownership of abusive images will only result in MORE children being abused.

Because, unlike average Joe downloading a torrent, they involve commercial redistribution.
What's a stream? Is it like a subspace tachyon polarization discharge eddy?
The point is that fear of going to jail will stop people from driving recklessly in the first place.
