China is well known for using corporate (and other) espionage to further their political agenda. Hooking into company systems to exfiltrate any possibly valuable data is far too common.
Do you have any sources that shows that this is more prevailing in China compared to our great western "democracies", or are you just trolling propaganda from the 60ies?
The free and open nature of the internet is what have made it so great. A lot of companies and governments are scared of this, and wants to close it up and make it mandatory to authorize yourself at every step. I think this is a very bad direction.
I rather keep it free and open, and keep ignoring the spam-counter in my gmail account, as that is normally how much I have to interact with spam.
So you mean that the CPU should send the data to the drive for storage, the drive should then encrypt it by sending it back to the CPU, and the CPU should then send it back to the drive a second time, but now encrypted? Sounds like some part here is unnecessary...
In this case, you seem to be the one without any knowledge. Ask any security expert about something called "security by obscurity" and see if that's a good thing.
Raid has never been a backup. A backup is something stored outside of the running set. That way you can restore the data if your running system would, you know, break down.
If you want to make a buck out of your music in a capitalist society you are no longer an artist, you are a businessman.
A businessman in a capitalist society has to do what every other businessmen does - create a product or service that people are freely willing to pay for. When you cry to the king to force the peasants to pay you money for mere speculation ("I worked on this music for a month, they better pay me!"), we are far from a capitalist society.
A proper operating system already have an easy to use bittorrent client installed and readily available, since it is such a popular and efficient way to distribute large files. I suppose it will take some time until most people will use a proper operating system though...
No music tracker worth its salt will have multiple versions of the same album, just different quality, depending on if you want lossless or want to spare the filesize and just get a small mp3/ogg version.
Thus, the only problem left is finding a reliable p2p service, which is difficult when you get the hounds of hell on your trail as soon as you start one, thus need to keep it at least *somewhat* closed.
Isn't that a bit like complaining that food you get from nature is just bad quality, since the roadkill you try to eat often taste bad, and is half rotten? Maybe it's not the food that's bad, it's your lack of effort to learn how to find it.
Where I get my music from, everything is available in FLAC (or some other lossless format, preferably FLAC though), and if you upload transcoded crap you're going to get lynched. over 200000 albums available instantly.
These are not super-elite trackers either, but very welcoming to new users. Search around a bit, check some forums, you'll find them.
What if I think that the cassette version has a warmer and more full sound that a pesky digital CD can not reproduce? (just look at a small part of the waveform magnified 10,000 times! it's just lines and corners! the cassette is obviously of infinite precision and clarity due to the superior analogue storage)
Aren't they then trying to downgrade my music by forcing me to buy it on CD?
It's almost amusing but mostly sad how both you and another guy failed to read the first part of the parent's post, ignoring the information and just try to reply to his other statement without understanding it.
Everything is copyrighted. FOSS software too. Linux is copyrighted, GCC is, this post is copyrighted. That's why, almost by definition, everything linked to from the torrent tracker was copyrighted. (The torrent files are not copyrighted, btw, but that's not relevant to the discussion).
What the RIAA/MPAA are trying to spread is the notion that everything under a copyright is forbidden to make a copy of, which is clearly false, and I think they are afraid that people will eventually realize that there is music out there you don't have to pay for, and there is quality software you don't have to pay for (not even by having to watch/listen to advertisements).

You mean that you know how powerful the quake would have been without the water? Why didn't you warn anyone?

This computer would however be really good at brute-forcing crypto keys...
What do you mean? The t-shirt was correct. He did not fix your computer.
Or did I miss something?
Yeah, make that:
<JickL> Your netbook is too heavy, and your laptops have too small batteries. Everything you do sucks.
Ok this got to be a troll..

By this logic, we should ban computers to keep the typewriter companies in business.
Well they are trying to ban privacy to keep the record industry in business.

txpower
For cards supporting multiple transmit powers, sets the transmit power in dBm. If W is the power in Watt, the power in dBm is P = 30 + 10.log(W).
If the value is postfixed by mW, it will be automatically converted to dBm.
In addition, on and off enable and disable the radio, and auto and fixed enable and disable power control (if those features are available).

In that case, it seems that dm-crypt *can* use the geode lx, but there might be some issues with unsupported key sizes.

So the state can secretly monitor everything we do, but we are not allowed to do it ourselves?
Sounds like someone should learn perl or python and get to it!
You could even use it back with kickstart 1.3. And the Amiga is a modern computer, just that it was launched 20 years before everything else. :)
Of course, the Amiga could do this already in the eighties, and it could also keep its state during a reboot, you could even boot from it.

And I don't buy 95% of the music I hear on the radio either, I don't see what it has to do with any lost income or lost sales anywhere.
Ok, you're excused by your username, but seriously, your taste in music must be really bad if you *own* the crap on the billboard toplist... :P
