Man... thanks for pointing out that "life partner" means lesbian lover. I did not know that. By the way... what is my favorite color? I don't know the answer to that one either.
KDE is a much better and more advanced window manager, so it should have these nice fonts, too.
Actually, anything that runs on top of XFree86 sucks. Besides, Ximian GNOME is much better than all the other sorry excuses for window managers... but it still sucks. Just use Windows for your desktop and use Linux for your server... you'll be much better off.
It sounds like the open source community needs to get a handle on this technology and make the most of it.
Brian brings up a good point about OpenSSL, GPG, etc... wouldn't it make sense to have those programs detect the existance of the TPM hardware and use it to offload certain functions from the processor?
Also, wouldn't it make sense build "trusted computing" features into Linux... such as being able to setup a file system so you cannot read it if the machine was booted from floppy, or removed from the machine. Sounds like that would be a good way to protect data on a stolen laptop, or on a server that some unauthorized person got their hands on.
My point is that if the open source community continues to shun this technology just because Microsoft/MPAA/RIAA are going to use it to implement DRM, we'll miss out on the good uses of this technology.
For those of you that know nothing about RSA. The private key is not necessarily a prime number. Here's how the key is generated:
1. Generate two large random primes, p and q, of approximately equal size such that their product n = pq is of the required bit length, e.g. 1024 bits.
2. Compute n = pq and phi = (p-1)(q-1).
3. Choose an integer e, 1 e phi, such that gcd(e, phi) = 1.
4. Compute the secret exponent d, 1 d phi, such that ed ß 1 (mod phi).
5. The public key is (n, e) and the private key is (n, d). The values of p, q, and phi should also be kept secret.
- n is known as the modulus. - e is known as the public exponent or encryption exponent. - d is known as the secret exponent or decryption exponent.
So, factoring n into it's parts (p and q... which are prime) and the public key would give you all the information you need to determine the private key.
I think you would have to try a second request to see the behavior described. The article is talking about reusing a connection that is left half open by the client. It should be the second connection that would exhibit the behavior.
The feminists wouldn't care for a few reasons. First, feminists are really in touch with the gay community. This is obvious because they hate men and have to have sex with someone. Also, statistics show that an overwhelming percentage of video game players are male. Therefore, they would have no problem with men playing with male sex organs.
They have everything to do with Cygwin. If they had provided halfway decent shell and command line tools there would have been little reason for Cygwin to be created.
I don't know what C# you're looking at but it certainly isn't a Java clone. It borrows more from VB and C++ then from Java. Maybe that's why it's not called J#.
It's just that SGI barely sells Irix machines anymore.
That's a shame... because Irix is a really nice OS. Too bad they didn't port it to Intel...

Don't forget DOS4gw by Tenbery Software (I think that's who wrote it) that came with the Watcom C++ compiler. Full 32-bit protected mode environment that ran ontop of DOS.

Yeah... because criminals will run right out to tag their handguns. Oh, and when someone steals my tagged handgun and kills someone, I'll get blamed. But, hey at least someone gets the electric chair right?
Slashdot Mirror
He is not using .NET. He is not using .NET. He is not using .NET. He is not using .NET. He is not using .NET. Miguel, you there? You are not using .NET.
.NET... but the Mono project is _implementing_ most of it:
Yeah he's not "using"
- CLR
- Class Libraries
- C# and VB.NET compilers
- ADO.NET
- ASP.NET
Isn't the rest of ".NET" built upon those things?
Damn... apparently someone posted it while I was typing.
/. is definately going down hill... 328 comments so far an still no "In Soviet Russia..."
At least we got the ASCII goatse.cx picture to give us a sense of normalcy.

no way... it's damn funny.
BTW - In soviet russia, -10 billion mods YOU!

No. It would require factoring a 2048-bit number.

Actually isn't it IP/CP? IP over Carrier Pigeon... not the other way around.
Am I the only one that hates the word "Bourgeois"? It just sounds dumb.
I just love the Soviet Russia comments... they never fail to amuse.

I liked this the first time... when it was called Cygwin.
That's why we should extend capital punishment to lesser crimes like shoplifting... and making left turns from the right lane.
He's explaining that his company is thriving on on-line publishing methods without DRM and copy protection. What more proof does he need to give?
Not trying to nitpick... but it's CLR not CRI... and it stands from Common Language Runtime.

What people don't understand is even if the a web browser won't show you the code... a simple telnet session to the webserver will.
