Pwned? What kind of kiddies come up with this stuff; that's not even pronounceable.
I think the idea is supposed to be that the target is so "owned" that the letter "o" is insufficient for the task and is incremented by one to a "p."
AFAIK it's still pronounced as if the first letter were an "o." Perhaps the speed at which the "ownedness" increases to the point of incrementing the first letter is so great that the pronounciation lags behind, like the shockwave wake of a supersonic aircraft.
I won't name names, but the company I work for uses a multiplatform enterprise batch-scheduling program whose programmers were similarly lax about security - and this is in a product that's targetted exclusively at massive corporations.
The Windows version of their software stores the passwords for authorized usernames in an "encrypted" format to use when it does the Windows equivalent of an SU to them to run the batch jobs.
On the first version of the software we used, the passwords were "encrypted" using the cereal box spy decoder ring method (simple substitution? I don't know the proper term), where each character was assigned a static hex value. One of our DBAs cracked it very quickly.
On the fancy new upgraded version, the "encryption" was upgraded to one-time pad... except that it was the same pad every time. I knew something was wrong when I looked in the username/password file and noticed that passwords with the same beginning sequence of characters had the same beginning sequence of hex values in the file.
It took a few hours, but I wrote a vbscript that would generate a CSV-format file of the encryption/decryption grid so you could see how it worked and decrypt passwords by hand. I was going to make it do the full decryption on its own but figured I'd spent enough time on the proof of concept and then freaking out some people by telling them what their super-secret locked-down service account passwords were.
I emailed the whole package to the vendor, and never heard back. It's especially sad because the pad didn't even change from machine to machine. That same CSV file would allow the decryption of any password from any installation of that software anywhere on the planet.
what school uniforms do is eliminate competition amongst students over who is the best dressed, they eliminate gang signs etc
I would argue that that is the euphemistic reason, not the real one.
People of almost any age will always find a way to flaunt their status if they have it. If their school has uniforms, it will be by having an expensive cell phone or car, or something along those lines.
The only real reason to have a uniform in any situation is to imply that the people wearing it are interchangeable parts. I think this is a very negative concept, because very few people really are interchangeable with each other.
Other differences? I can think of a few that might be relevant: strict dress code - pressed pants, starched shirt, suit-coat or blazer, appropriate tie, groomed hair, proper facial hair care (beards/goatees, etc allowed, but must be neat)
Yes, because as we all know only the conservatively-dressed can learn or contribute to society.
The most brilliant person I know (a bioengineering major) has purple hair and wears a patent leather choker with lab vials full of flourescent chemicals attached to it. She is more interested in learning than anyone I've ever met, and picks up subjects from chemistry to MIPS assembly in a heartbeat.
I'm a full-time systems engineer, and I have blue hair and wear knee-high combat boots. I like to dress up sometimes, but if someone tries to force me to I lose all interest in whatever it is they're offering.
Fortunately my employer seems to realize that having people who are happy with their working environment is more conducive to productivity than demanding that everyone fit some sort of Victorian-era ideal of how people should appear "professional."
This sort of archaic conservative-society mentality is exactly what I thought of when I read the book review above - it places superficial appearances over actual results.
I agree that yes, the gov't can't keep a secret to save its soul (a friend's younger brother bought a model of the F-117A before it was officially unveiled)
You're thinking of the Testors F-19 "Stealth Fighter" model. It doesn't look anything like the real thing, although there was a huge media flap about it when it was released.
We're just as likely to detect an early industrial civlization by their sitcom broadcasts as we are to detect some hyperadvanced godlike race beaming lasers at us accross the galaxy.
No, we're not.
The odds of detecting an alien civilization that's within even a few hundred or thousand years of our own in terms of technology are ridiculously small. Think of how many million years of evolution are behind us, then try and imagine that by pure chance another species got to roughly the same place in time to beam some signals our way.
An alien race is going to be either incredibly primitive compared to ours, or unimaginably more advanced. In the former case, we won't be able to detect them, so pretty much anyone we have a chance of intercepting a signal from will have technology far greater than our own.
You put on earth and the other say on mars and if you can read/change their quantum state without directly observing them you have an instant faster then light communication device.
No, you don't. This is a common misconception about quantum teleportation. You still need a second, non-instantaneous communication channel to complete the information transaction.
ANH: good ESB: bad ROTJ: excellent TPM: awful AOTC: good
And I am not a Star Wars geek.
I think you meant to say "I'm not a person with good taste in films" =P.
How can you prefer a movie like RotJ over ESB? Let's compare:
ESB:
- Has Boba Fett, the ultimate badass. - Has a dark, mature storyline. - Has excellent writing and acting.
RotJ:
- Turns Boba Fett into a dork in armour who gets killed by a blind man (although the SE "macking on the alien chicks" scene slightly redeems him). - Ewoks. WTF? WT*F*?
The Battle of Endor and Luke/Vader duel were excellent, but overall it can't touch ESB or ANH.
So far the prequel trilogy has been incredibly disappointing. About all I can watch of TPM is the Maul/Jinn/Kenobi fight. AotC has a few decent scenes. The opening is excellent, parts of the chase through Coruscant are good (although I could do without the lame dialogue), and the battle at the end would be awesome if it weren't for the incredibly stupid C3PO jokes.
If the prequels had come out at the same time as the original trilogy I might be more forgiving, but there have been *so* many good films since then that combine that level of action with deep storyline and characters (e.g. Blade Runner, Heat, Aliens, Firefly).
For packaged vegan cheeses...I'd reccomend not going there. They're all disgusting.
I actually found one that isn't - Vegan Gourmet. It's hard to find (only one independent supermarket in the greater Seattle area carries it as far as I know), but if you melt their "mozzarella" on pizza or make macaroni and "cheese" with their "cheddar," it's really tasty.
The rest are foul, though. VeganRella might as well be a giant chunk of crayon.

One more reason to stop eating meat
If you want to avoid food that contains beef by-products, you'll need to stop eating more than just meat. For example, most cheese is made with animal-based rennet. Its source is the stomach linings of mammals like cows.
Is it just me, or are scientists trying to make science fit the theory?
This is my feeling as well.
Ever since I read The Elegant Universe, I've thought that there was a pretty obvious source of the gravitational effects currently attributed to things like "dark matter" - gravitons entering our brane from other branes. Given that they're the only particle that isn't bound to a brane, it would seem pretty obvious to me that many trillions of them should be passing from brane to brane all of the time.
It's kind of far out, but it seems a lot more likely to me than a bunch of quasi-invisible matter and mysterious acceleron particles.
The rumour is that this game is being built using the engine from Legacy of Kain: Defiance, which is really excellent for action/adventure games.
The feature I'm most hoping for from it is Soul Reaver-style controls (relative to the camera) as opposed to Tomb Raider-style (relative to the character, turn-in-place and move forward/back like a tank).
I tried playing the first couple of TR games and I couldn't get past the unintuitive control scheme. I was able to squeeze through Silent Hill 2, which used the same type, but only because its pace was so much slower.
I mean, if Yoda couldn't speak english properly, I figure the rest of that species should be downright horrible in comparrison.
I thought it was pretty obvious after Episode II in particular that Yoda's "help you I can! hmm!" mannerisms were just another part of his act to make himself look like an eccentric old fool to lull his enemies into a false sense of security.
Every time he says something of great consequence (e.g. "no, there is another") he reverts to proper English faster than throwing away his cane to beat down Dooku.
Seems to me that they are spending more money developing all these technologies than they stand to gain by knocking out piracy.
I would like to think that you're right, but I think they are just extrapolating from the losses in markets like gaming, where the easy ability to bootleg games basically killed the Dreamcast, and caused publishers to drop support for the Playstation earlier than they would have otherwise.
I'm as big a fan of fair use rights as anyone - I make mix CD-Rs from my legally purchased albums, I've ripped the music from a DVD to make a soundtrack CD when one wasn't available, and one of my hobbies is hacking the Legacy of Kain series of games. None of those things would be possible in a 100% copyright-enforcement society.
On the other hand, I see thousands of people pirating movies, music, and games of all types on a regular basis and wonder how small of a minority I represent. Most of them don't even have the shakey "I can't afford it" alibi - they do it because they *can*, and don't care that they are ripping off the producers and making it less likely for legitimate fair use rights to survive.
Look at something like the HDLoader for the PS2 - it's a pretty cool idea, a product that lets you install your PS2 games to the add-on hard drive to make them load faster and play more smoothly. Only a tiny percentage of gamers are going to use it for that capability though, with the vast majority seeing it as a way to get free games from their friends and the rental store.
Thank you for that pearl of wisdom, anonymous bumper sticker troll.

My experience was that the value of psychedelics was not in any supposed revelations about the outside world, but what they revealed about me.
It's been a long time since I've used any psychoactives other than alcohol (I even gave up caffeine last year), but I tried LSD, mushrooms, dextromethorphan, and even PCP once (that was an accident, we thought it was something else) when I was younger. My memory of all of them was kind of like the cave in Empire Strikes Back - what you experience is "only what you take with you."
Seeing the entire world visibly altered by your perception of yourself can be a really powerful experience, and tell you a lot about who you are. I worry about the people who take LSD, then see a monster when they look in the mirror. Maybe it's just self-doubt, but maybe there is a valid reason why they see themselves that way.
It's really too bad that the majority point of view seems to be that psychedelics are something that should be banned. There are certainly some dangerous drugs out there, but other than nightmare-incuding substances like PCP I would say that they're all in the same general safety range as alcohol, especially when used in the proper setting.
No kidding. I love some of the headlines on their main page:
Filth, fraud, fascism: Exposing 'The Party of Treason' - How Democrats corrupt morals, steal elections, aid enemies

Somehow I think I'll wait for independent confirmation of this "breakthrough." Especially since I routinely see articles proclaiming that Israeli scientists have invented everything from cold fusion to FTL drives and yet they somehow always fail to materialize in commercial form.
Last year I started looking for a car. At the time I was really interested in a Subaru SVX, since they're kind of like relics of the 80s future that never was.
Anyhow, I was very close to buying one from a guy that seemed reputable, but just to be on the safe side I ran the VIN through Carfax.
It turned out that that particular VIN had been issued a "dismantled" title, meaning the car had been damaged so heavily that it was no longer possible to repair it and re-title it. It was actually illegal to drive on the road.
I figured there were two possibilities - either the dealer had bought the wrecked car and fixed it up using substandard parts, or he'd done a Gone in 60 Seconds (the original version) on it and swapped the VIN tags from the wrecked car with those from a stolen one. Either way, it wasn't something I wanted to pay $5000 for.
This new version of Visual Basic.Net has an VB6 to.Net upgrade wizard, that will try to rewrite your code for you so that it'll compile under VB.Net 2005.
The 2003 VB6->.NET converter did a pretty good job as well. I tried running the source code for an ancient VB app we use here at work through it, and it would have worked perfectly except I didn't have all of the third party add-on packages that the app was coded to use.
No, really, there is no reason to pick up 3001 at all unless you want to see the story from the previous three books completely trashed and diminished.
I told a friend once the basic premise (Frank Poole getting frozen in space for 1000 years) and he said something like "So it basically reads 'So... cold. So... very... very... cold. Fucking... computer.'"
With battery life measured in the 2-3 hour range (for gaming), I have no interest in the PSP.
This is not an official figure. 2-3 hours is supposed to be the battery life if you're watching a movie on UMD (constant disc access) with it being closer to ten hours for games (intermittent disc access) according to the latest issue of PSM.
There will also be an external battery pack if you need to double the time between recharges.
I'm not really interested in a handheld game system, but when Sony releases a GBA Player style accessory to connect it to a TV, I'll get one of those.
