A fast general cpu-core can at best hope to test 16 million (2^24) AES keys per second by todays standards. (Estimate from http://www.cr0.net:8040/code/crypto/aesbench/). Assuming you have 1 million (2^20) cores available, you would be guaranteed to crack 69 bit AES in one year (2^25 secs).
Cracking 128 bit AES would take 500 billion billion years with those 1 million cores. Dedicated chips might do it faster, but it would still be billions of billions of years. I'm assuming that the cipher has no cryptographic weakness, of course.
Closing an application on Mac OS X is always done with Apple-Q, through the Application menu or by ctrl/right clicking the dock icon. The red X, by default, only closes the window. Some applications may choose to shut down if all it's windows are closed, but most don't. It's up to the application.
This behavious can often be seen in Windows nowadays, too. I can mention Openoffice.org, Netscape, Yahoo Messenger and many other IM clients. Instead of shutting down, they continue to live in the bottom right corner, kind of like on OS X, but not as consistent.
Has anyone tried this new version on Mac OS X? I loved Inkscape the first time I tried it on Windows, but unfortunately it didn't work very well on Mac OS X. The menu for the option boxes popped up behind the window, so you had to move the window away to select an option.
I tried FreeCiv even though I found the graphics to be not that attractive.
When I tried it I also found that the graphics was difficult to interpret, not to mention that the steps needed to setup a game would make most people give up even before the game begins.
I don't think that gives you any more legitimate reasons to break the protection.
It would be much easier and much more legitimate to create a module that stream the music that is unprotected and "stored in your iTunes". It probably alreasy exists.
But the inspection in closed and tightly controlled Iraq worked just fine, as we have learned after the invation, so your argument is the one that is quite foolish.
Not a very good idea, as pointing at the sun would make you look straight at it, causing a dark spot not just where you pointed but at the center of wherever you try to look for the next 20 seconds.
If there were a big untapped market of potential Swahili writing consumers, then I'm sure Microsoft would have made Office available in Swahili a long time ago.
The lack of potential consumers does however still allow for a much larger mass of potential Swahili writing Office users.
Only if one measures the progress of the world purely in money does this make little difference at all.
People like the sign outside/banner on the front page that says they can get a PC for $350, which is true in a way, but to get what they really want they end up with a $700+ set up anyway.
People are very good at believing creative marketing.
The number of people converting from apple to microsoft is not zero, but I doubt that people switching from microsoft to apple do it because of the iPod.
That's why this isn't discussed in the article about the survey, because the survey only asked iPod users.
Yes and the same goes for the Java runtime environment on Mac OSX, which is made by Apple. According to news.com they are still investigating if it's vulnerable as well.
All these so called problems are not really big problems if a city really wanted to do the switch, so to speak.
The only thing that is required is that it is done on a large scale and it would almost certainly require (local) government involvement.
Having to stop to recharge would not be a problem if all parking lots where required to have electric outlets. Very few people need to drive their cars non-stop.
Making a practical system for battery swapping is also just a matter of money and will.
The show-stopper is that such a large scale deployment of infrastructure to support electric cars is costly, at least in a short perspective. I'm guessing no city will do this until there is a large recognition of a financial model that takes environmental factors into account.
Isn't Rosanne Barr quite average looking if you compare with reality and not Hollywood? If so I would think gynecologist would top your list in general if you think it's so disgusting.
This is leading us to the theory about memes and that coevolution between genes and memes has controlled the human development ever since our brains were able to carry and copy ideas and thoughts.
Since the ecology on earth is now to a high degree controlled by humans, the memes are now also a big factor in the evolution of other species, too.
I'm not sure if you realize this, but people in general don't have the knowledge or the initiative to gain the knowledge that is required to mod their stuff.
If they add these "features" and they are possible to circumvent by some mod, then everyone will be happy.
The majority of people will use the camera with the flash and be happy, the people who dislike the idea of camera phones used in inappropriate manners will be a little less concerned because all(most) cameras will force-flash, while geeks can mod it out and also be happy.
So what you're saying is that the only way people will stick to Linux is if it's so hard to install that when they finally make it work they feel a great sense of accomplishment.
And then they will be reluctant to stop using it because they have invested so much time and effort to get there.
That's not a fair comparison. You're looking at the store and the url seems to include your session id and probably some other stuff.
The page for information about the powerbooks is http://www.apple.com/powerbook/
The Nokia page is just information about the product, too, so there are no good reasons why it couldn't just be called http://www.nokia.co.uk/nokia7600/
I read the F article, and he says that ongoing research will not have it's funding cancelled, but no research that is based on cells that aren't already harvested will get funding.
The scientists says that this severely limits their work, so, yes, Bush isn't supporting stem cell research.
So Bush and you don't support research in a field that may save the lives of millions of people, and would instead support research on how to more effectively kill millons of people.
Nice...
So, the choices are as follows:
1) Cut a deal similar to the 1994 Carter deal that the North Koreans violated (fool me once...)
2) Attack North Korea and risk immediate massive civilian casualties in South Korea.
3) Drag China into the negotiations with North Korea and convince them to "curb your dog".
4) Close our eyes, put our fingers in our ears and shout "La La La La La...".
You can't just rule out the choice that was used effectively against Iraq until the USA decided that they didn't believe it worked contrary to all evidence.
5) Use massive international diplomatic pressure, negotiations, sanctions and inspectors.

8:30-6:00 and 8:30-6:30? Is that common in the US?
Standard work hours in Norway is 8:00-3:45. I don't think 9 and a half or 10 hours a day would even be legal in Norway.

A 1 out of 5 star rating from me.
...to help isolate a trusted memory space, and to provide trusted path from the keyboard and trusted display...
For some reason, the overuse of the word "trusted" makes me very suspicious. I think I'll rather trust my trusted BS instinct.

Doesn't john come in a version called distributed-john or something? I've seen it demonstrated on a knoppix-mosix-cluster.
>Also, some sort of buffer overflow prevention would be cool.
It's called Java.
