I think your showing it to your friends is exempted by this section.
The thing is that the man in the middle doesnt know which component to measure, and if he measures the wrong one it may change the other components; alerting you to his presence.
Quantum Cryptography is an unbreakable key exchange method. It is already used to a very limited extent(doesn't work more than 30 mi. currently). We may have already switched to Quantum cryptography before Quantum computers come out.
Quantum Cryptography works because measurinng one component of a particles spin alters the other components. This also has the added effect of alerting you to any listeners if the amount of particles with the wrong spin is statistically too high to be due to environmental effects
I think a buffer overflow would work as the executable is signed, which is what is checked. There finally will be a good use as well as the bad for buffer overflow exploits in programs, that is to allow the users to run what they want.
1 states you are allowed to exercise fair use
2 states that if the licence cant infringe on fair use rights unless you have the opportunity to negotiaite the itslicense(ie not takeit or leave it)

Its not treason according to the definition in the constitution(Article 3 section 3)
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court.
China is not an enemy right now and M$ is not declaring war on the US(they own it so why would they).
Ok, it's wrong, but if Microsoft played the game the MPAA does with DVD's, they could market cheaper versions, specifically for markets with lower median incomes. (Then they may do this, but still at a price high enough to be a barrier.)
That is a violation of the Clayton Antitrust Act, which requires compannies to charge all customers the same amount. If they are charged under that law they will probably successfully claim its not a violation because everyone is still in the US even though that is irrelevant.
The major cost in drug R&D is the FDA testing. If it weren't for government interference they wouldn't need patents; but with government interference they do need them to pay back the expense of the FDA testing.
I think the arguments he makees referring to thhe senate are the arguments the small states made and the ones referring to the house were the ones the large states made. The founders made all those arguments it was just diffent founders made different argguments. I can see how his statements are misleading though
Plato proposed the idea that we should be ruled by the smartest people. There are a few problems with this however. Firstly how do you decide who's smart? A test would be the obvious solution but tests can be rigged to give someone a disadvantage; for instance they may not know something considered to be general knowledge that is not applicable where they live. If the test contains questions about the subject of their job it may have opinions snuck into the answers to disadvantage those who disagree. Secondly smart people may just do whats best for smart people but that harms dumb people rather than benefitting everyone
Defacing a website is analogous to graffiti where as stealing the credit card numbers is credit card fraud and is much more severe. breaking in the site could be considered like breaking and entering then the damage done would be treated like the most closely related non-computer crime.
there are harsher punishments for drug possesion than many other crimes including child molestation here in the US. We still have more drug users than child molesters so your argument doesnt neccesarily hold.
Microsoft also has no reason *not* to stop Virtual PC from being able so cleanly, seamlessly, and easily to emulate, say, Linux.
There is the anti-trust suit but the judges dont seem to care so your probably right.
mean, Palladium is going to be damned hard to crack, but if anyone at this exact moment in time has both the resources and the reason to crack palladium, it's Connectix or nobody.
They are a somewhat major company so the DMCA violation wouldn't go unnoticed. Im not sure they would risk a lawsuit from a much larger company even if they hadn't been bought out.

They do get paid by the station, but its only about 2c per listener

A proof of security would imply P!=NP

It can't be stronger than the MD5 alone because the SHA can trivially be stripped off of the concatenated hash, leaving only the MD5 hash.
Hi, I'm wondering if you think there's a future for ROT13. I've heard it's pretty secure...
You can read this? Damn!
Differential power attacks require physical proximity and are not useful over the internet. See this page(on his site) for more details

This is probably the first time an ad has been slashdotted.

contributing to open source is no more socialist than contributing to charity. If it isn't forced it still fits within a capitalist society
