I've always been treated politely in the USA. (or, at least, not because they were aware I was foreign)
I speak with a noticeable accent. You write good English, but in terms of speaking, I guess French and English are languages at the opposite of one another (and yes, I speak French). Speaking English in France is like "bull in a china shop". The opposite is equally terrible.
French accent is tough on the English language and it often murks it beyond recognition. Just see how the Canadian speak French.
The dumbest idea EVER from Intel was segmented memory space for 8086
THAT set computing back in the PC world YEARS THAT is why G3/G4 (ok, the G4) processors run circles around the PC THAT's why we were stuck with Windows blue screens until the 2000's
AND Intel processors still don't calculate sines/cosines properly.
I don't know about the graphs and statistics they generated from this. First of all, you don't know how many out of the total set of users were stolen and the ones that were decrypted were probably the obvious ones (via rainbow tables? was Gawker using salt?). Perhaps this adds a bit of slant to any statistics generated? Anyway:
Apparently Gawker was using DES (really?!) and with the password in its source code

Yeah, but the costs of HW x86 are very cheap.
The rest of HW is arch independent (storage, mainly)
Power? You can go with the slowest modern processor, or Atom
Well, what I heard is that McDonalds has a sandwich not on the menus, called McGuffin but you have to ask for it specifically...
Great explanation
Even though translating from PPC is much easier than translating from x86 (which of course has been done several times already)
But (program speed) performance from PPC->x86 is likely much better than x86->ARM
and remember Rosetta did not support Altivec
It is the same situation as MONO. You can write an app that will run on .NET in Windows and Mono in Linux. Write once and compile for each platform.
You usually don't have to recompile for MONO. The same binary works!
(windows.forms .exe and server .dll yep, it works)
Correct
that was when IBM got the short end of the stick with MS
So.. it IS a series of tubes then!
Well, I'm still waiting for "Wiki take a leak"
Ok, on second thought, maybe not...
free arson??
Well, that's interesting.

Well, at 1Mhz you can run linux...
well, ok, OpenBSD :P
Don't worry, they put worse things onto airplanes and mission critical systems...
I'm not joking, unfortunately.
No, the problem is
The 27 letter password should have been memorizable
If IT Morons insist in a too complex password that changes all the time
then noting it down is the only way to keep access to the system.
Remember that if the password changes FBI will just break in again and see the note
Relative complex passwords that are easly memorizable are better.
What's this null termination you speak about?@Eeeeaaaaakkk SEGMENTATION FAULT
or SIGBUS
When you get a SIGBUS take the bus and go home =)
Gee... great post!
I've seen the original email message, and to me, at first, seemed very suspicious.
I'm guessing Theo did the right thing in publishing the original email.
Too bad OpenBSD doesn't use a real VC system like GIT :P

You know... Linus is right
"Talk is cheap, show me the code"
People should cvs checkout the relevant files and start looking.
I'm suspicious no one has shown a slightest hint of where the problem may be yet.
Exactly
I have 3 levels of password security. "Stupid sites" get the simpler password.
Also, for simple sites that I don't trust I have yet another password (simple as well, but different)

So yeah, it's pretty easy to decode it
It's 127.0.0.1
But don't hack it please!!
Just wait till they DDoS telegraph them, that'll show'em!!!!
Well, I think it's great.
Go learn something before you think you're a "hacker"
Don't be an ass just because. Defending Assange is important, but that's not the way to do it.
Fax, from Facsimile or in latin, that is, "make it similar"
An ancient technology for sending documents over the phone.
And when they get there they look anything but similar to the original.
This reminds me you could bore a hole in a 720k disk to "turn it into" a 1.44Mb disk. WOW HEY!
Not very reliable though...
I'm guessing it's illegal to sell your balls in Texas or something like that...
