I currently run SETI on 4x P3-500mhz and RC5-Client on hmm 45 x 300-500Mhz PII-PII (GUI Version!). And now i read about a new Client and want to Download it AND? No GUI Version available???!!! Sorry, no GUI!, no Client!. I hate nonGUI Versions so i run me old GUI as long it works and then i say GoodBye to RC5 and install SETI on all Stations. And for the CSC and OGR Clients i can only repeat no GUI! = no Client! They should consider to release a GUI Version of them i'm sure that many People out there will not install a nonGUI version for some good Reason. Its a Problem anyway that SETI came because now i love SETI more than the RC5 thing so if things turns Bad for RC5 like new CLI versions are incompatible to GUI versions or so RC5 is dead for me. Beside the GUI Troubles where are the PIII optimized Clients anyway? What i can't understand also is that it takes so long to break a 64Bit RC5 Key thats only 8 Bytes not very much?! I use Keys of 8KB for me Ciphers thats Big but Bytes and in RC5 there must be some weak points or why else they have allready RC6 out?! Moooooo....:)
I'm in Europe Switzerland and i have a IE 5.0 with 128Bit and the old IE4.0 i used was 128Bit too there was absolutly no Problem to get it.
I need 128Bit because the Bank uses also 128Bit Encryption for Internetbased Transactions.
My PGPKey is 128Bit IDEA and 4096Bit RSA so what?
And the NSA + Echelon is well known here thats the Reason all Friends i know use at least 2048 Bits or more. But how to be sure that the NSA don't have a Supercomputer to break such Keys too?
Theoreticaly a QuantumComputer can break such Keys in noTime its only Mathematicaly.
The Best Encryptionmethod is OneTimePad but also has some Problems because the Key is as large as the Encrypted File but is virtualy unbreakable.
I Coded a such System for me self with the Cosmic Noise of a Diode as Randomsource, its perfect but Symetric so i still need a RSA or Diffie Envelope for the Key and thats the only weak Point.
But Breaking the Encrypted File without the Key is impossible.
I personally loved the Matrix and so did several of my other friends. The movie was the paramount as far as movie going is concerned as I still can't shake the stupor I felt when I found out what the Matrix really was. I saw the movie twice and it was the first movie in years I thought was worth seeing. That doesn't make me a geek, it makes me free minded enough to envision a world without the conventional maya(the wool pulled over your eyes) that leds many of us to believe that the world is purely what we perceive(read Hyperspace by Michio Kaku it is the perfect demonstration of this fact).
I for one loved the blend of eastern philosophies and virtual technocracy. From Buddhism, to Taoism to virtual AI this movie has everything, I can only hope that Star Wars doesn't put me to sleep before I see Darth Maul kick butt.
