And on dial-up, that used to take about 6 minutes per 1mb zip file, and always when the download reached 99% the dreaded 'click - Purrrrrrrrrrr' of the modem disconnecting happened, so you would have to download it all again after dialling up again.
A statistician worked out that 1 in 20000 aircraft could have a terrorist bomb on board. The odds of having 2 bombs on board the same aircraft worked out at 1 in 50000000.
So, every time he took a flight, he carried his own bomb.
They are not interested in what the stuff is - just who is talking to who ssl doesn't protect that info. If it rings alarm bells, then the work starts.
Basically it is like a bouncer on the door weighing everybody up - if you look dodgy, then you get the once over.
Them. Governments, or rather people that run Countries (i.e. the government might change, but the people in the background stay there, the money people). The illuminati, (if you like), do not want the hoi polloi to uprise, so monitor every aspect of what we do - it's called 'control'.
Supposing 0.1 amp per 6 volts in 39 minutes increases mathematical ability by 2%, at what rate should the current be applied and for how long before you can work this out?
To continue at the way we intelligent monkeys are going, the 'earth' will soon give up.
Lets take a quick look at how quick this could happen:
In the UK there about 60,000,000 people. Lets suppose only half of that number eat eggs. Lets suppose that only half of that number have an egg (or a product that contains eggs) a day.
That is STILL 15,000,000 eggs a day that need to be produced in the UK alone ~ let alone the rest of the World.
Now consider other things in a similar vain: heat(power/fuel et al), water, rice, wheat, potatoes etc.
It soon gets pretty scary thinking what can happen if/(when) the infrastructure breaks down.
The only way to get on is to EXPAND into other places ~ but there isn't any left here on Earth now.
Obviously the 'wasp factory' is well known and one I first read, but the (usually) unmentioned 'song of stone' is one that still sticks in me mind (read it, great unique story telling and narration!).
This is much like English football managers. They lose 20 games on the trot, come under fire from the fans and press and eventually get the sack 'cos they are shite.
Then 3 weeks later another team hire them on 100's of 1000's of pounds a year - eventually it all happens again in one big merry-go-round.
Surprisingly, it is a fasinating place (well worth a visit), with 100's of fossils and whatnot - which the place tries to debunk.
When I asked the guy behind the counter how these items, millions of years old, fit the bible story, he said; "God created those and made them look old for the benefit of man to wonder".
As Brian said in MP's 'life of Brian', "What fucking chance do I have!".
... the first thing you need to ask yourself, is WHY do I need to encrypt data?
1) Illegal stuff 2) Private stuff 3) Just because you can
ans to 1 is don't do it - you will be caught eventually ans to 2 is why? private is private and provided you use proper security on access controls all is hunky dory ans to 3) paranoia

Used to take days to get big files.
... I bet it defaults to 'pretty angry' and 'fucking windows' moods.
To build windows, you have the use the windows compiler, I guess. Well, that's that then:

Reminds me of an old joke I read somewhere once:

... Ham would say about all this.
...I am only 53 so I will never get one from the Queen when I am 100. Oh well.
[bad grammar] Best buy a GNU/Linux system
I made a stink bomb in chemistry class, and not only did I get banned, I also got the black plimsoll across my backside! (c. 1973).
Of course you need maths at a higher level. Try binary subtraction by hand.
...and wait for a leap year or February 29th - that will be fun.
To pretend you are still a hippy in the 70's?

...but now I can't find my 3D printer
Unlike most people posting tripe in here, I was 10 years old when Bowie released this - it was fantastic (and I also think the first music video?).
I am now 53, and this version is brilliant (and apt) - would I as a ten year old expect this to happen 43 years later? No way.
Brilliant stuff.
There are a lot of cases where people put 'on line' stuff, and sales increase.
DRM is really handcuffs - MS do it, Apple do it. What is it with sheeple that make people buy this stuff?
Just don't buy one.
Wrong!

Mr. Hawking went on a date:
It was his first one in over ten years. When he came back, his glasses were smashed, his wrists broken. He had twisted his ankle and grazed his knees.
Apparently she stood him up.

Sad news, but we will all get there in the end.

I never could understand that.
Near where I live is a small 'creationist' museum (for want of a better word):
