This was an example. StilI have a more complex passwords that deal with the dictionary attacks.
The issue here is knowing who your attacker is. If the attacker are random (albeit professional) thieves then what you need to do is make your password too difficult to bother.
They will run the passwords through a bunch of attempts. After a while they will get to a point of diminishing returns and give up. I'm pretty damn sure that 20 characters (even if they are in a dictionary) will pass do just fine. (To beat a dictionary attack put in a date or a zzz or something)

Now - if you're concerned about government actors (NSA, FBI, KGB, whatever) then that takes it up a notch. The first way is analogous to protecting your
home from thieves. The other is like trying to defend your home from SWAT. Two very different things.
As far a remembering - that takes time and iterations. But I think ones privacy is worth it.
either that or you can become familiar with other units.
There is something nicely retro in knowing that an acre was a measure of how much land an ox and a farmer could plow in one day; that the plowed in a straight line for 1/8 of a mile (a furlong). Even knowing that a mile was the measure of a 1000 paces (a pace is two steps- left, right).
You want to be objective? Then I suppose you want us to use Kelvin for temperature? Ah, isn't this a nice 300 degree day?
No. Not accurate at all. States do change and it historically has not been tied to how they voted in federal elections. (That's been changing rapidly over the last decade.)
Secondly neither party is monolithic. The Republican party is split between "establishment" which is for crony capitalism; libertarian / tea party which is greatly opposed to this and social conservatives who tend strongly to main street (as opposed to wall street) but for whom social issues is their primary concern.
Main Street is a catch-all phrase that refers to small farmers, mom-and-pop stores, small and mid size businesses (as opposed to multinational, publicly traded conglomerates ).
Well. Power is centralizing at an enormous rate. (Plus add the collection of data and the increasing nannyism - not only by people in power but by voters,)
It isn't Imperial Washington in 2016 but what about 2036?
There isn't. But the concept is that an informed citizenry (as opposed to subjects who are ruled) have a greater ability to change the structure of a state government then they do the federal.
Is this a cure-all. No. Of course no.
While I'm not on the side of government - this is to be handled by the states. And yes, the states can be just as foolishly run (or corrupt) as the federal government.
I don't think the FCC ought to be involved with this.
And, yes most things are shades of gray (like the way you phrased it:-) but this would be a horrible expansion of the federal role. (One that I think needs to be tremendously pared down.
You want to increase the power of Imperial Washington?
The one clear check and balance on Imperial Washington are the states. If you're not happy about the Patriot Act, NSA over reaching then maybe, just maybe, you ought to be wary about other over reaches (even if the particular instance leads to a desired result).
This doesn't make any sense whatsover. The federal government can "buy" and "sell" BTC under aliases and do the same thing, Complete anonymity is one of the things that people desire in a cryptocurrency but it is not essential. Second there is more to anonymity then prevent government agencies from tracking you down, Some folks just like privacy and find Facebook and Google and others intrusive. Bitcoin pseudo-anonymity works quite well under those circumstances.
The lock on my front door does a good job keeping knuckleheads away but if the US Government wanted to break into my apartment it would be useless to prevent them. That being the case should I stop locking my door when I leave the apartment because it isn't useful against the government actors?
Sorry but you're not making any sense. There are almost 1,000,000 transaction every 10 minutes.
Bitcoin's market value is approximately 10 billion dollars. This is not going to affect the price much. And "destroying" the coin won't make bitcoin any less valuable. Just as destroying gold doesn't make the remaining gold left valuable.
Can government stop bitcoin? Yes. By imprisoning and killing people who use it. Outside of that - it will be very difficult (if not impossible).
Where is the evidence that he was killed. I'm as interested as anyone else but... the more damning the claim the more evidence you need to be able to promote it.
What is the evidence he was killed?
What motive was there for his death?
And why use the police (in uniform) to do it as opposed to another random killing by who-knows-who?
More than biology it's drive and time spent honing a craft. Watch kids and teens practice the same move over and over again. I (used to) pass a basketball court on the way to the store. Kids (8-16) would be practicing a move or a shot again and again the entire time it took me to walk up to and pass the court. 10 minutes later, walking back home, they were still practicing the same move.
They practiced, and I'm sure got much better over time. Athletes are more than their height. It's also their drive and willingness to put in the work; their ability to learn and take instructions.
Now. I agree with your last paragraph, of Google starting scholarships - or otherwise providing a reason for kids to work hard at academics for instance with sponsored academic bowls where participants get rewards and travel perks and prestige for competing. In doing this Google would help increase the pool of available talent for universities.
Google can also help our society transition away from the contemporary university system and into computer based learning / IA teachers / individual learning / whatever feel-good promotional name is currently in vogue enabling more people to focus on that they love and can make money at rather than taking a 19th C finishing school approach.
All in all there's a lot Google can do BEFORE people enter the job market to bring in economically disadvantaged kids (white,black, asian, male, female or transgendered) but once the competition for talent starts - then they should be like an NBA team and search for the best available talent.
But why is that a problem for Google to solve? Is it the NBA's problem to ascertain and to solve the problem regarding the over representation of black males in the NBA? Should teams start hiring less qualified under-represented populations to make up for the disparity?

Yes. It should be. And it certainly shouldn't be illegal to not wear them.
How about this logical inconsistency. You have a right over your body enabling you to decide whether or not to terminate a fetus (abortion) but you don't have the right to decide whether or not to wear a seat belt?

Please. Running your own email server so as not to keep a trail of documents is legal?
OK. Say it is.
Is it ethical? Is it something acceptable to you?
You have a strange definition of a slave. By your standard anyone who has to do anything to survive is a slave. I think slaves would beg to differ.

If the password is long and uses a lot of characters, it be harder to remember, which leads to it being written down.
Not really. Think of a phrase and use an algorithm.
(leaving spaces for clarity)
Mets Rule Yankees Drool are 20 characters - that's pretty strong in and of itself
substitute $ for s, 3 for e, and 0 for o and you have
met$rul3yank33$dr00l is easy to remember, easy to type and is pretty damn safe.
Are you so messed up that you think that working == being a slave?
Sad. Just fvking sad.

No you dope your government created TOR!
Therefore what?
... I don't think so.
That the concept of TOR is flawed? Or that sufficient nodes are covertly run by agencies that it makes the whole process null and void?

So. If a bank robbery occurs in the US does that mean that the dollar is worth less, or is to blame?
What about if there is a robbery in France? Does the Euro suffer?
Thefts of this nature are thefts. Pure and simple. Why go after the exchanges? Because that's where the bitcoin is.

One group has self-respect and expectations of something better. The other ... much less (as a group - not all individuals).
Anyone on welfare, section 8 who is popping out kids has little to no respect for themselves, their kids or society in general.
