ok (y)

Mine is at 16y, 17 end of November. I remember really hating the idea of have some extra useless software running just to play a game I bought.

If they send you my public key and they send me your public key, we still only have our own private keys, right? Hasn't PGP been doing this for like 30 years? or are we just as the point where the argument is that if you are decrypting the data on a device that isn't offline only then there's...

Ok, yeah, they'll have your login and password information, you've got to send that to login. My understanding was that the text of the e-mail was encrypted client side and proton never gets the key, keeping the data secure. I've not used their service, but I thought the encryption /...

Yeah, I mean I guess if you've compromised all end points then what happens in the middle doesn't matter. I was trying to answer the question about what stops them from keeping encryption keys and just decrypting and storing the plain data. At the time I had thought I answered that correctly.

Maybe I just don't understand, but I thought that if I encrypted something on my end with a private key then logged in and sent the encrypted data that someone couldn't just get my private key because I logged into a website and sent some data that wasn't the private key.

I'm no expert in data encryption, but my understanding of public/private key & end to end encryption is that the people in the middle (eg. protonmail) never hold the keys to unlock the e-mails. The decryption process should only be possible on the recipients end. If all it took to undo...

Difference is one that does so when court ordered only has data from that moment forward, no history to provide. Also it's still an encrypted email service, they can't get your emails from the provider.

I thought that was kind of the point cybereality was making, PCs (running windows / linux / macos) are different than iOS and the methods software is available to them. Valve's store is in the PC market and not iOS, and the differences between the two platforms are enough to maybe make...

Nothing stops 0-day, that's how it's defined, unknown vulnerability that can be exploited. Won't matter how up to date Windows, your router or AV is.

The only time I had a power supply cause damage to anything else was in 2000 or 2001, but back then I bought the cheapest grey box never heard of brands. With good brands the only thing I even hear about now when they start failing is unstable systems, especially when overclocking. I would...

Is that even an impact? That link keeps taking me to a listing calling it a cordless screwdriver. I think it's just a driver. Am I wrong?

So they argue that if the currency is convertible to USD then it's taxable. I'm thinking World of Warcraft here. Since you can buy and sell gold 3rd party, even if blizzard doesn't like it, then it's a convertible currency. So do you have to file capital gains every time you gain money for...

I never said it would get around it, wasn't an idea I had. To clarify: I had meant to quote, in the my original posting one of the people mentioning disconnecting from the internet to get it to install how they wanted. I've heard that is not an uncommon step in various cracks for software...

It's a step that sounds like it should only be necessary if you are trying to avoid activation servers for piracy. Shouldn't be a step required to legitimately use software the way people want.

I've used an air compressor for this task for probably 15 years has worked fine. I usually held the fans so they wouldn't go spinning crazy when hitting it with the air. I just left it set at 90psi or whatever it was last at, never had anything come unsoldered :rolleyes:. That being said a...

Wow, I'm surprised that it ended up in your favor! I'm glad it worked out. You mind giving more details on what you said to their twitter account and on the appeal?

I think you mistook my point, I was trying to bash that idea of telling everyone to just deal with it. Since so much of this thread and threads like this are full of people acting like people who don't like troublemakers are often regarded as weak and should just learn to deal. The harden up...

but isn't that just people creating their own safe space because they think they're special snowflakes? Shouldn't they instead just have to deal with it and [H]arden up? Shouldn't these actions just be expected online and be allowed? ... That survey where people were asked if things like...

I feel like there's a lot of hate going on for what basically amounts to people don't like it when others grief in games. I don't play with cheaters, people who spam racist/dumb shit all game or any other people who are there just to grief, I just find another game. I expect plenty of you guys...

(The joke is in implying it's an April fools joke.) *ahem*, oh yeah right!, like I'm going to fall for that on April 1st, lol.

April Fools!

from what it looked like to me your suppose to play with them facing downward, so they'd be on your left hand with your fingers pressing them from the underside, with your thumbs on the topside with the regular controller sticks / buttons. That puts the keyboard buttons right under your left...

and throw out your android phone and start using bing.

so, just a partial one then? and yes, I know.

oh god, he reads so slow.... I couldn't stand it.

A signature != cursive handwriting Signatures often include, giant embellishments, crazy long tails that circle back, or are just illegible since it's just a personal mark. I'd hardly call what most people use as a signature proper cursive handwriting.

Right now it's all testbed installs, work out the bugs then just add more. So the robot needs a 2nd arm, got it, next iteration. Line at ordering kiosk, ok just add 6 more, now everyone is ordering at the same time.

He's Megaman!

When you choose iOS you've only got two phones to choose from, when you choose from any of the 100s of others phones you get Android. Not sure if bouncing between different brands of phones and custom interfaces is the same thing as loyalty just because there's android in there.

Damnit, now I can't turn my lights off.

I think this is more in line with, someone asked to use your phone, and they called their drug dealer.

System requirements seem a little high. ;)

What's interesting is if this goes thru it could mean, in the future, a company could be compelled to do something that's illegal in another country. Like if the law in Ireland is that you cannot export that data without some government signoff. You're based in America, so we don't care if our...

Well, it shows my options correctly. AT&T at 6mbps and then some satellite services. I've got the Viasat service now, and well, even though it's advertised at speed tiers up to 30, they are not playing around with those "UP TO" numbers. If it's 4am you'll get that no problem, but a few weeks...

I stopped liking it once they shoved that dragon dictation in there, the +Dragon part killed it for me

they were home, hid in a closet, but yeah, could of been bad. I imagine it was quite the weird feeling sitting there waiting for the police to arrive while a crazy armed guy is looking to kill you.

Don't worry the lobbyists will get in there and convince them that if you can buy wireless broadband at $10/gb that counts as broadband, then they'll stop using their existing lines while prohibiting anyone else from offering wired access.

That's the boat I'm in, trying to figure out how to do this correctly. I got a little bit in 2015 a couple of times just to play around with to see what it was all about and how it would work, moved it around to different wallets, bought a t-shirt, made some donations etc, then what was left...

It's no surprise to me, who wants to go to the most boring blog ever where your "friends" just repost lame stuff from radio stations and vomit political crap all day. While having ads shoved in everywhere they can be.
