So when lycos have there servers hacked,
which will happen making themselfs a huge target by having so many zombies to control, hackers will spend all there effort hitting lycos.
And when they do gain control over the Millions of ScreenSaver Zombies who will be held resonsible for there actions and stupidity?
And when this hacked network of Zombies DDoS some Copmany, I guess the lawyers over in Lycos will not be in for a good day.
Anybody else see this turning into a huge mess 6 months from now?
1. The record is a standard test of straightforward mental calculation for high order integer roots. The calculator should perform the calculation in his/her head without the aid of any other person and without using a calculating machines, computers, etc. nor may the calculator write the numbers down.
2. The number whose 13th root is to be calculated should be randomly selected by computer immediately prior to the calculation and should be displayed to the calculator on a computer screen, board, screen or similar. It is important that the given number is the 13th power of a integer number which belongs to the interval 41246264 49238826 and whose last digit is not 0.
3. The calculator should write down the answer.
4. The timing begins when the number becomes visible to the competitor and ends at the end of writing the answer.
5. In some cases, the calculator may dictate the answer - then the timing ends as the calculator finishes dictating the answer.
6. Two stop watches should be used: it would be appreciated these stopwatches record in minutes and seconds and tenths of a second rather than hundredths of an hour. At the end of the attempt the time should be taken as an average of the two watches.The name of the person making the attempt should be given, along with the date and place.
