Yes, my point. I can't see any concrete action there, only paperwork and advertising. That's only a matter of political decisions, not a "if people know, slavery will stop" mantra.
How does one fight slavery with money ? Isn't that the job of states ? Or will there be some really nice commercials telling us "slavery is bad, don't do it" ? No seriously, what will they do with $11.5M, apart from paperwork for politicians who just don't care ?
The passphrase is hashed, and uses effectively the whole bit range. Your passphrase can be 8bits long, the hash will be what the algorithm needs. This hash will then be used as the actual key.
ARM doesn't even have an FPU (although it does have a matrix multiplier), so even emulating an x86 fir anything other than integer logic would be a challenge
"ARM" is not a processor, like "Intel" is not a processor. High-end consumer ARM processors (ARM9 for instance) have something called VFP, which is... an FPU. Here is the wikipedia article.
Do you think iphone/ipad/android devices do their 3D computations using software floating point ? Are they doing that using fixed point ? You are stuck in the 90's it seems.
" Let's take two examples everyone knows: OGG/Vorbis. What's the penetration of this open and free format out in the music player industry? Zero"
I know you are just trolling, but just getting the fact straight : ogg/vorbis was read by my samsung 'mp3' player in ~2005/2006. It is also the format of Spotify streams. That's the two examples I've got right now, personnal experience, and it was not a choice of my own at all.
Another example, nearly every single professionnal (AAA etc etc.) video game you buy today uses ogg/vorbis (that's... free).
You yes, you are indeed trolling. Or dumb. Or both.
From TFA: "Teagle, who will lead a run-up expedition this spring to bore further into the oceanic crust than ever before, said the forward push to get this project rolling is coming largely from Japanese funding agencies and the availability of a massive Japanese deep-sea drilling vessel called Chikyu."
Japanese funding agencies would maybe have something else to do with their money in the next ten years, sadly ?
When doing raycasting, you will basically throw one ray per column (320x240 resolution -> 320 rays) (only primary rays are thrown, most of the time). Perspective is then added (the farest the ray hits, the smallest the wall will be on the screen). Quite fast, albeit very simple (no lighting, reflexion, or such). When doing raytracing, you throw one ray per pixel (that's the primary one) to know which object it hits, then another one for each light source (secondary one, for shadows and color), then N others if needed (think reflection, etc.). Each of these secondary rays will then throw other rays, etc etc. Computationally very intensive, even after good optimizations, but quite realistic.

That's stupid, and you are an attention whore. "whoo, look at meee, I don't use the same font as you, look at meeeee". So gay.
Stop changing the font, that's annoying and doesn't make your comment more valuable, you gay.
That cool man, shut up now ?
He was obviously better at politics than at painting, though.
Do you have something even more interesting to say ? Because that one was really really really boring.
That was very funny in 1992, so please shut up.
That's cool man, but no one cares about your life.
Oh that surely is interesting for someone who gives a crap.
I believe I can fly
Shut up, you are annoying.
Every tried winding in 30 km of cable? Slower than molasses. People would starve to death.
Ever tried to lift 30km of cable ? With a fscking balloon ?
"I sure as hell respect the men and women who are doing their best to get their paycheck."
FTFY.

claiming that they will deliver nearly unparalleled advances in CPU performance
What's the point of having 10 cores then ?

Did you know it could be used in medicine, aerospace, and military applications ?
That's so funny ! No one made this joke before ! Godzilla jokes are so original !
"That's silly. They're trying to build a supercomputer out of MIPS chips. That'll never work..." THAT's what I'd call an argument. May I ask why ?
This is raycasting, not raytracing.
