  5. Re:Consider the Source on 360 Limiting GTA IV In Some Ways · · Score: 1

    Consider the question "On PS3 you've got a guarantee that every machine is going to have a hard-drive and, with Blu-ray, you've got plenty of storage, whereas on Xbox 360 there's no guarantee of a hard-drive and you're working with the DVD format. Does that create limitations?" Then he says "both have enormous challenges" and that "both have their own particular pleasures and pains".

    As for the grandparent post, consider something for a moment: How easy is it to break an encryption scheme if you already know the contents of the file? Hint: In many cases it's pretty gosh darn easy. Being able to demonstrate that the encryption could be broken that way would be proof enough of its contents. You have been warned.

    Just as an example 12 either means 44 or 33. What is the encryption?

  10. Re:One more step toward a space elevator? on The World's Longest Carbon Nanotube · · Score: 1

    You do not need to use your electric motor to accelerate to escape velocity. You gain escape velocity by moving along the ribbon and then using the earth's rotation to accelerate. What about using coal for the electricity? Why do the tyres need to run at Mach 3 if you run the climber at say Mach 0.5? For that matter why do you need tyres(look at chair lifts. The wheelhouse at either end)? For power to weight ratios look at the solar planes or solar cars? (You only need a motor that can loft itself for it to work. Economically you would need better though)

    The idea is your trojan SETUP.EXE contains much of the same code (I.E the non-trojaned parts). So ABCDTEF is your trojan setup (T is the trojan). The actual setup.exe is ABCDEF. They will only downlaod ABCDEF not T from you.
