As someone else who has recovered the public key from iTunes, I can say He did break a form of encryption. The public keys are encryped in itunes albit it with a very simple rolling xor algo.
There is actually table of 255 public keys encoded in itunes. This is just one of them.
Oh I so agree, the T68 was the first and last Ericsson I'll ever buy. It was awful in every respect. I went back to a Nokia 3 weeks ago and things are good again.. My T68 will be on ebay soon now, thankfully it's a popular yoooof phone. Although I can't imagine anyone in their right mind owning it. Can you believe I found the original receipt for it, damn thing cost me £175 at the time!!! And probably 1000s in lost time..
I saw this last year at Boarder-X in Battersea, London. It was Nintendo again, but they were pushing the GBA. There were a few guys strolling around in jump suits matching the GBA colours, with 2 GBA attached to their belts with security teathers. The disturbing thing was trying to play a game with some guy thrusting his pelvis in your direction because he was wired to the device in your hand via a 1ft steel wire..
I used to work at a Car manufacturer a few years ago where we were testing a similar device in a prototype vehicle. It's a good technology, but the overall conclusion was that it would be nice to have conversation with a passenger without some pesky bit of kit taking the words from your mouth. The project was later canned.

The red thermo liquid tastes more like coffee than the coffee does, and keeps you awake for longer.;-p I wonder what the possibilities are for hacking the can though? I quite fancy one with a cooked breakfast in it.
This isn't the first time that a usb sound card has been done though is it? I've been using a plantronics dsp 3000 headphones/mic device for about 6 months now and is excellent. Especially for Counter-strike..;-p It looks like a pair of headphones with a boom that plugs directly into my usb port, no messing around..
That's very true. But I very much doubt there are any exceptions at all that optimising the drivers and shaving off cycles is going to help much.
The only mental requirements for processing power I can tell is nuclear modelling and simulated medical trials. This is all precomputed and wouldn't really benefit from a perpixel shading language.. Also considering Churches law this point is made mute. Would a faster graphics API, get me more completed units with Seti? No.
I do agree with your comment about MS deception with Farenheit. But didn't we all see this coming?
I'm just please that OpenGL is progressing to the next level, especially after the Fahrenheit fiasco. It's my belief that MS used it to distract SGI/ARB from OpenGL to progress DirectX unhindered. And look at market place now, nearly 100% DirectX penetration if we're talking games, and even near that for typical workstation/cad style products that OpenGL considered it's home market.
Don't get me wrong though. I Love OpenGL. Not only do I consider it the _only_ 3d api, I consider it one of the most professional and designed APIs. It's how an API should be designed.
Perpixel shading is a very welcome addition and should save some texture memory. Imaging all the Q3 shaders implemented in hardware... yum.. And I'm sure you could implement some nice trees with it too..
Although all these nice additions to an API won't stop inventive programming. There will still be a need for billboard trees and highlights..
Even so, the additions to the api will create even more ingenious implementations. Lionheads use of mipmapping for bluring distant objects was ingenious. Look at how far ModeX pushed the pc, or how Mode7 pushed the Nes. With a more powerful API the possibilities appear endless
Unfortunately I don't see drivers appearing for a long time..

that's all really..
Old jokes are always the best ones.
This is a dupe from a while back (almost a year ago)... slashdot
Hardly a hack is it?
Open device.
Change drive.
Close device.
Reload software.
Wow! And they still bust the screen..
No, but he lives on my street! ;-/
Fortunately Muggys car's broken atm.
If it's anything like the one for the T68, the MCA-10, it will bite..

That's not even a retailable product.. Like the T68, a totally loathsome phone.

Shouldn't that be webbed updated?

Some neat technology here and some not so neat, but it's good to catch up with some peeps..
It's a real shame that the PA wasn't too clear for the Speccy talk..

now if i only had the money for a digital camera...
There a guy with a free digital camera in a wooden box fixed to his backdoor somewhere.
