I'm guessing that a lot of high school grads are attracted to the academies or ROTC because their educations are paid for.
I just graduated from one of the (US) service academies this past May. Most of the cadets/midshipmen at the academies join up because they want to serve their nation while at the same time looking for a high quality education. The people who come solely for the free education drop out pretty quickly when they experience military life first-hand. You learn very quickly the academy is not a normal college when you walk past the memorial wall and see a list of recent graduates who have fallen in combat.
Sorry, but did you just say you can have something be both secure and convenient? I'd love to see an implementation like that because it's never been done in the history of all things.
What about OpenBSD? Pretty secure and *very* convenient.
There is about a 3 second time delay. That is why they are controlled by local pilots for takeoff and landing, and after they are in the air the control is passed off to the pilots in Nevada.
But I thought hashing something was the same as encrypting it. That also has the advantage of compression. I took my 20 GB music library and hashed (i.e. compressed and encrypted) it into only 20 bytes per song with SHA-1. Pretty good by any standards...
Actually, the DoD does use the internet (on a network called the NIPRNET). The SIPRNET is used for *secret* communication (it is a VPN over the internet). There is a separate network as you get to higher and higher levels of clearance (e.g. Top Secret, different compartments, etc.) which obviously cannot communicate with the lower networks.
Accelerating at 1G Wouldn't that mean it wasn't accelerating at all? I'm "accelerating" at 1G right now, and I don't think I'll be going 350 mph in 228 seconds...
While the x86 appears to a programmer to be a CISC machine, it internally converts all instructions to RISC in order to improve performance. This allows for much higher clock speeds, pipelining, and separate data/instruction caches.
HOW!?!!?!...Do you get executable code in a SPREADSHEET!?!
Actually, M$ uses OLE2 as the binary file format for all it's office products. This is actually like it's own file system. If you dig around in the files you'll notice there is a lot of padding where you can place whatever you want and M$ office products will not even notice. I'm not sure exactly how this exploit works, but I did some research into the MS03-050 exploit and discovered that buffer overflow would allow you to execute about as much shellcode as you would want on their computer. That one in particular was a simple matter of malforming the macro header table (changing the input length). No matter how high your security settings are the code will execute without your knowledge (if you open it).

Where exactly in the constitution does the Congress derive that authority?
You can get Linspire DVD Player which will *legally* allow you to watch encoded DVDs in linux.
Actually, they do require a WGA check. Unfortunately I know this b/c it is installing right now...
