    The bigger diference isn't the degradation rate...

    Because everything will eventualy will be recycled naturally...

    The issue is the toxicity of the materials will waiting for the "natural" recycling. ;)

  2. Re:Easy Solution to Keyloggers on Mumbai Police To Enforce Wi-Fi Security · · Score: 1

    The best keyloggers take not only keys, but screenshots, clicks and the clipboard...

    Naturally no keylogger resists a memory reset...

    But, if the keylogger is HARDWARE based, you don't even manage to detect it, because, if done correctly, it isn't even on the computer...

    Alas...

  3. Re:Not enough on Mumbai Police To Enforce Wi-Fi Security · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's very easy to make Mumbai safe from a repetition...

    The problem is making it safe from the next DIFERENT thing.

    And a small detail, the city must be kept working...

    Okie... so...

    1. Terrorists don't use satellite phones,
    2. They don't use any kind of walkies-talkies,
    3. And specially, they abide by ALL laws!

  5. It will never work... on Mumbai Police To Enforce Wi-Fi Security · · Score: 1

    The messages can just come and go... and even if they are saved and stored... they will mean nothing... ..unless you are on the knowing of how the message is.

    Seams to me that people just don't know anything about cryptography...

    Alas...

    Their problem after that. ;)

    It is realistic at his lifetime... (and mine at that), but not FOREVER!

    In the end, we may discover something tomorrow and the day after we stroll our stuff between the stars... But it would have to be something like a breakthrough... (anti-gravity, hyperspace, parallel universes and planes, you name it).

    I would be more worried with an earth microbe to go somewhere else... mutate and return with a vengeance... ;)

  11. Re:Is this the "charity" in question? on State Secrets Defense Rejected In Wiretapping Case · · Score: 1

    I specially like the "circular" argument.

    Arrest terrorists because they work for an ONG, then close down the organization because for sure they are a bunch of terrorists. After all, all those terrorists worked for them no?

    And then, yup... they are true terrorists see... they worked for a true terrorist organization...

    Interesting argumentation.

    And not require a computer to do that...

  14. The market is dead... on Dr. Dobb's Journal Going Web-Only · · Score: 1

    As the title states, the issue is that since some years ago, the market and distribution of the large majority of those magazines has just dried up...

    If you are lucky, you get 1 or 2 magazines of programming, and 2 or 3 of Linux...

    I just don't understand what is in the heads of the international distributors, but something is wrong for sure.

    Not even the police has that right.

    The max that they can do is apprehend all the material on the excuse of be evidence.

    But even then, they can't delete them.

    And have to return everything in the same state...

    You for sure see the loopholes here no?

  17. Re:Amtrak Police!?! on Amtrak Photo Contestant Arrested By Amtrak Police · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    The same can't be said of using ALL those photos for commercial or offensive ways...

    First it isn't their premises.

    Second he had a ticket, so they can't evict him from the platform before he decides at his own time to do so (not dragging feet naturally but not need to force him to sprint out either).

    Third it's public space.

    It is unconstitutional to forbid photography in public spaces as photography has been confirmed by the Supreme Court as included in the 1st Amendment protections.

    But I'm only dabbling things read elsewhere... like ITFA...

    If you have an idea and that idea was 100% yours, then:

    1. Don't do a paper with it;
    2. Don't present it to professors;
    3. Don't do anything with it BEFORE you end your scholarship.

    AFTER you end your student days, implement and patent it.

  22. Re:Substitute? Sounds good on More Climate Scientists Now Support Geoengineering · · Score: 1

    Not exactly...

    When we are still debating the consequences of several thousands of food supplements in general use, and from time to time we discover that some are not that harmless as they seam...

    When we discover that harmless paints are indeed highly toxic...

    When we discover that DTT is so toxic that is now forbidden all over the world...

    Do you think that just dumping something at the scale required to have an beneficial effect in the climate will not have secondary and possibly nasty effects?

    Think again and come back later with the answer.
