Surely it can be done similarly to the way Launchpad uses. The Launchpad OpenID (for version 2.0)* just uses a generic Launchpad login URL, which the site the OpenID is being used on redirects to. This URL asks for your Launchpad name and password, tells you where it's being sent, and sends you back, logged in. Couldn't a similar method be used with an email address?
I'm picturing something like this: (username@login.example.com). True, it's not an actual email address, but it looks very similar to one, which makes user understanding simpler. Essentially, it's the same thing: a generic URL. But this time, instead of using something like edge.launchpad.net/login/+openid, it uses login.edge.launchpad.net, and provided the username in advance. For example, if Slashdot, were an OpenID provider, my OpenID from slashdot could be randomoutput@login.slashdot.net, instead of www.slashdot.org/login.
Does anyone see a problem with it now?
*Launchpad does provide a non-generic URL for OpenID 1.0, but its use isn't a good idea.
There are other possibilities (3) Your assumption that the airline regulatory agency's sole purpose is to keep the people as safe as possible is wrong (4) Being on an aeroplane changes the circumstances in such a way that, although people are typically safer with guns than without, they are not so on aeroplanes.
I'm not saying either of these possibilities are correct (or incorrect), but that they are just as valid possibilities as yours.
WTF You went into a uni engineering program and hadn't heard of imaginary numbers before. In grade 6 or 7 (don't remember which) was the first mention of them (though no more than "the square root of -n is the square root of abs(n)i"), and a full lesson was in grade 9.
"Handwriting on the wall" is uncommon, but let's see what the first sentence of your link says.
The writing on the wall (or sometimes 'handwriting on the wall') is an expression that suggests a portent of doom or misfortune. Emphasis mine.
HTH. HAND.
There are 2^2048 possible 2048-bit keys. If you split it between 2 computers, each has to do 2^2047
Wouldn't each computer only have 2^1024 keys to solve? To simplify the problem, let's take an example of 2^2 (that's four) keys. Let's use the possible keys "a" b" "c" and "d". Clearly, splitting these between two computers would give each computer 2^(2/2), or 2^1 keys. If the keyset is expanded to "a"... "zzzzzz...zzzzzz", why wouldn't the same idea apply.

Strange, as I heard about what was happening on the car radio on the way to school (in Florida).
WHERE?! I WANT THAT!
You'll need a TV to watch those DVDs.
And outsourcing to Canada, Mexico, or India won't be international crime?

No. There's a fascinating documentary about the Weathermen titled The Weather Underground.
Can't that be better written as "::2"?

We all know there's someone stupid enough to actually want this.
