Nope, I've just read the brochures and tourist reports, and looked from afar at the demarcation line in Panmunjeom, but I would like to go. What exactly are you going to be doing in NK? Anything that's not tourism is pretty unusual, AFAIK. In any case, Wikipedia has a blurb, and I remember seeing a web page for the café somewhere.. but can't find it right now.
Well, you were technically correct then, but only because the system is fscked up in the first place. Now you can thank me for destroying one of your last few remaining mental supports.:)
That's only because those games are conveniently disconnected from matters of everyday life. Try any adventure game, and immediately moral issues start to crop up.
Well, they do want to be able to contact china, since they at least try to maintain an air of being friends. There's even a cybercafé in Pyongyang for tourists and diplomats, so phone lines shouldn't be a problem. The only problem is finding an actual phone number connected to the outside world, since the regular phone system in NK is completely separated from the outside. Anybody want to do some war dialing?

Therefore, simply hang hard-core porn on the cockpit door. Unfortunately, this might be an issue with pilots of Emirates Airline, and it doesn't stop atheist terrorists either. Damn those uncontrollable atheists!
One button was a bit of a standard on home computers then, I believe. I can't remember playing any computer game that used more than one joystick button, until simulators on the PC. Now I have 4 axes and 10 buttons plus two shift buttons. Talk about inflation!
We obviously want to use maximum storage per HD weight, which is currently the Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000, we would have 1,000,000,000,000 bits per a maximum of 700 grams.
Using the maximum payload weight of an A380F (freighter model), we get with Google calc: (152 400 kg / 700 grams) * 1Tbytes = 193.36913 petabytes, which is 12.8912753 years worth of CERN CMS data over a maximum distance of 5,600 nautical miles.
The maximum useful load of a Cessna 172 is 371 kg, which gives a meager 0.0313823042 years worth of data over a maximum distance of 687 nm.
The raw distance between CERN and Purdue University (not including distances to airports and such) is about 3838 nm, well within range of the A380F. The Cessna 172 falls into
the ground/ocean long before that however. Since there's no air-refueling option for the Cessna, the plan calls for a fleet of at least 179 Cessna 172's constantly working in relay, just to keep up with the data production rate!
So, to answer your question: If you want the same leisurely pace of using one A380F, you'll need a massive 2148 Cessnas flying for a full year, every 12 years (the total weight of which is equivalent to 531 A380F's, which should tell you something about the efficiency of said plan).
How is that different from, "I have a gun, and you don't, so I get to tell you what to do", or "We can throw you in jail, so we get to tell you what to do"? That is the reality of adulthood.
The reality is that prison is a punishment for those who didn't get their lesson in the first place.
There's still some room for improvement though: "While the average light duty vehicle on US highways gets 21.6 miles per gallon (m.p.g.), according to a study by the Paris based International Energy Agency (IEA), in Paris, its European counterpart manages 32.1 m.p.g."
Not only did you bring nationality into this, you (and many others) also brought piracy. Both of those are irrelevant and off-topic, as this affects all users at least equally, if not legitimate users more.

I'm wondering, is it even legal to give no warranty at all?

That's my point. Sort of.

BSD is amphetamine, giving you instant gratification. GPL is vegetables, tiresome to eat, but provides benefit into the future.
Eat your veggies.

Decimal separator.
What about forwarding them to some random number in North Korea? That'd give them pause.

That's great, now lick your elbow.
So why not just limit access to C? Have e.g. p1 responsible for it, and let everyone else communicate with p1.

If you mean 0x09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0, it's not very difficult to factorise actually.
Could you please write a few more loaded, biased, statements? Your post isn't quite enough of a straw-man argument as it is.

Mission successful!

2) Transfer speed

Your uncle? Well now I feel old, that's what I used myself, along with 3" / 180KB disks. Actually, I am an uncle myself, now that I think of it...
