    It's in Australia, dickhead. Of course there will be beer.

    Encrypting something is many orders of magnitude less complex than breaking the encryption. Moore's Law means that more complex encoding becomes practical at an exponentially faster rate than the ability to break it.

  7. Re:7E7 vs A380 on Airbus Launches 800 Passenger Jumbo Jet · · Score: 1

    " Boeing and Airbus have different philosophies regarding air travel." Utter bullshit! Neither company has any philosophy, it's just that being unable to afford to develop two different aircraft both companies have taken a punt on which form of travel will be the more profitable. Having made their bets both are now frantically hyping to the skies the "philosophy" behind their wagers...
