  2. yeah, but they make it hard to use on States Filing Alternate Remedy Proposal for MS Anti-Trust Case · · Score: 0

    I imagine MS would create a closed-source kernel module which is required to run MS office. Or, even better, they's force you to patch your kernel in some ridiculous way.

    Most likely I'd expect them to make an MS Office for Linux on the same par as IE for Solaris. Sucks.

  6. XEMACS license plate on GNU Emacs 21 · · Score: 0

    So, I was driving down Sepulveda near Fox Hills in Los Angeles last month, and I saw a dark-colored car with license plate "XEMACS". I was thrilled, but my car was too slow to catch up and give a thumbs up honk. Who was this?

  8. Re:Bypassing the keylogger on FBI Files Brief on Scarfo Keylogger · · Score: 0

    Option #1
    Some have suggested saving that phrase in a text file and then copy/paste from there would work, except that your passphrase is now in clear text on your hard disk. Any search warrant against your machine would find that file, and your private key becomes compromised.
    Solution there is to open a text editor before going online, entering the passphrase there. go online. Get the mail and then copy/paste the passphrase, close text editor w/o saving.


    A better soluition would be to go to a frequented website and copy and paste the password character by character as you find them in the text. Preferably a website with text that includes all the special characters you use in your password, of cousre.

    Ever occur to you that quantum computing is much further along than you might think in certain circles??

    That this post was given a zero score indicates that the moderator doesn't know that "quantum computing" would allow one to factor integers in sub-exponential time.
