However its popularity decreases rapidly throughout its life.
The demand for a file may be incredibly high during the first hour of its life, stay high for a day and then start decreasing rapidly as it becomes 'old news' and more widely available.
For example, a trailer for the new Star Wars film may take an hour to download and be in huge demand. The next day, the demand is less concentrated since it has been on television, all the hardcore fans downloaded it the second it was available, etc. Being able to start the upload before it has downloaded takes enormous pressure off of the sites that have the complete file.
It may be an unreasonable requirement, but I'm sure it is not an unwanted feature.
An image isn't noise. It is very organised data and can be recognised as such. (A) if you suspect steganography, then images, music, etc. are obvious targets to look for. (B) the non-randomness of the encrypted data is, allegedly, detectable behind the non-random image data.
1. I give my browser all sorts of information about me, some of which I don't want distributed widely
No, you don't understand it at all. P3P is a way for a site to tell you and your browser, in a standard way, what the site's privacy policy is. No informtion goes from you to the site.
The password policy where I work is 10 characters, mix of upper and lowercase, at least 1 non-alphabetic, expires every 6 weeks. So of course I write it down (indirectly) or put it in "logon.bat". Because of Windows' stupid caching, I already have to phone the helpdesk every 6 weeks to get my account unlocked when windows somewhere decides to try my old password 5 times in succession.

The full details are in the security bulletin and this includes the technical details that us /. readers like.
How nVidia goes from graphics cards to gaming servers beats me.
... have the idea first. No more than that.
It's quite simple really
Alternative location for the patent. Uspto is notoriously slow.
... it was just issued. nVidia filed it 18 months ago.
And to clarify the story
it just sits on the HDD 99.9999% of its life

It looks like the UK will be leading the way with this, although I'm surprised its not being pushed at a European level.
As long as it doesn't look like Haley Joel Osment I'll probably buy two.
It's only half the size of this one
It is a OTP - It is a very fast and convenient way to make very good and non-interceptable OTPs

OK, let me see if I correctly understand P3P.

here. Be careful.
You only need to distribute the source to the people that you distribute the binary to.
Presumably the binary is covered by the same secrecy rules as the source, so the only people entitled to the source are the miltary.
Although, if the binary is in a bomb, you may also need to distribute the source to the poor sod that you drop it on.
If it is free, then how is it being abused? NYT aren't losing anything
That is what I would do too ... and then change it. If you know my password then it isn't secure.
Who needs admin access?
You get user access to my PC and you get all the sourcecode for the project I'm working on, all the documentation, all my email etc.
That should be enough to keep you going.
It's no bother to me really ... my helpdesk request reads something like
To : HelpDesk
CC : My Boss
Subject : Locked again.
My account is locked *again*. Phone me when it is sorted, I'll be at Starbucks
If "sdf987*(&^JJHASBDjkasdjkh231*()&as" is an easy password to bruteforce then we're all screwed.
34 characters from an alphabet of 70 or so is a lot of permutations.

How can you sue? Have MS prevented you from using the letter X?
"He rejected the suggestion it was a cynical media stunt. "
And he's from the PR dept, so he must be telling the truth.
It's amazing what you can find on some grave stones
I hope I'm not the figment of a science fiction author's imagination ... cos this experiment sounds like the set-up for something nasty.
Wrong
free(p);
free(p);
what happens if there is a thread switch between the two calls to free?
Another thread can call malloc and receive the same value 'p' back.
When we switch back to this thread, it will free memory another thread still thinks it owns.
Calling free() twice on the same pointer is never safe.
p=malloc(somesize);
free(p);
free(p);
Do mac apps crash or not?
That's all that's relevent to this discussion.
