If it's a hash, the message CANNOT be reconstructable from it. After all, as you just stated, there are collisions, even if they are hard to find. So any process to reconstruct a message from a hash would have to be able to reconstruct ALL the colliders.
The law doesn't take the simple-minded view that a loss must be money taken away from someone, it can also be something of value that someone would have rightfully had but for another person's wrongful conduct.
Therefore, Sonny Bono should have been drawn and quartered, because "something of value" -- many, many works whose copyright was due to expire -- would have been rightfully the property of the public but for his wrongful conduct.
Alas, now that he's dead we cannot kill him again.
Human: Do you like dogs better than cats?
ALICE: I do like music. I like Hugh Loebner.
Human: Hugh Loebner is a lousy fuck.
ALICE: He's wealthy, right?
OK, so where did this come from? I know it starts at the 126th decimal digit of e, but I can't make any sense of the sequence 0 4 22 98 126 (or 1 5 23 99 127 either)
You neglected the important fact, made strongly in the review, that the first half of the book is devoted to deriving the commonly known equations, including Newton's,, that govern the two-body problem.
You are correct, in that business customers of Paypal do pay Paypal transaction fees for services.
However, I would expect that there would be arrangements for Paypal to deliver received funds from the Paypal "account" directly to bank accounts, if desired (and it would be desired). So money received wouldn't stay with Paypal very long; they're not a real bank, much as they want to be.
On the gripping hand, Paypal's new "fines" are just punishment fees for violation of their (admittedly volatile) terms of service. A provider of a service has the right to set fees charged for that service. So they're not doing anything with "your money"; they're charging you a fee for what you're doing with your money.
The sad thing about EH is that the set design and even the premise could have been used to make a really great sf/horror movie. But they weren't.
The only logical explanation for the ship doing what it did (and for Sam Neil going along with it) is that he built the EH using his wife as a human sacrifice. Explains why his wife died, why he still obsesses about her, and why he calls the ship "she" with such... affection. (Disclaimer: not my idea, read it on usenet somewhere). But did they go there and give us all a decent thrill? Nope.
I defer to your superior knowledge, but I bristle at your inferior manners.
The intent of my statement was to point out that when you pay Barracuda some money, they ship something that you plug in, not some CDs that you load onto your own box. Therefore when they make speed claims (valid or not) they are hypothetically using the same physical objects that they will later ship to you.

Why would a phone need a hard drive in the future?
To store its operating system, silly! You think they're gonna be able to fit Windows 2030 Mobile Edition into an EPROM?
Not to mention its cache of GPS coordinates, storing your exact location for the last 30 days, so that Starbucks knows when and where to spam you.
You could always return to Netscape 1.1N. Best .. browser .. evar.

Is my thinking way off somehow?
Don't know if you noticed, but /. ate the email addresses you tried to embed inside angle brackets in your post.
Even quicker in many instances is Sysinternals handle.exe, a commandline version of the find handle function.
Naah, he's actually an AI programmed by somebody named "Dan Steele"
See Piers Anthony's horrible drek^W^Wscience fiction novel Politician, the third book in the "Bio of a Space Tyrant" series.
theoretically, you can write PDFs with Notepad and a hand calculator.

It is amazing to me, that someone with enough general knowledge to give such a walkthrough, can misspell privileges.
Privilege: private law.
Seriously? I thought the Netscape Enterprise product line fizzled out back when people thought selling pet food on the internet was a good idea.
Selling pet food on the internet *is* a good idea, or at least a profitable one.
But sometimes you strike gold:
Human: Do you like dogs better than cats?

It's not necessary to buy hardware without encumbrances. Just don't buy hardware with them.
Don't Buy Anything. Defeat Consumerism.
Somebody write Orson Scott Card and tell him to write his next novel set in the Reborn Inca Empire.
In that case, you should provide fetuses with guns so they can defend themselves against doctors.
The paranoid next step to take is to conclude that Microsoft writes worms and viruses.
The step after that is to conclude that they engineer vulnerabilities into this generation so they can write exploits next year.
Never mind; I found a page which explains the logic. The offset sequence is not important; the digit strings are.

I can visualize a billion by picturing a cube of sugar cubes, 1000 cubes per side.
Then I reach for my Glucovance.

I want very strongly to read this book....

Barracuda sells hardware devices, not software that you install on your own kit.
And here I thought you were pressing the blaster to Lucas's temple.
