1) Computers are, by design, a tool to lessen entropy. Computers sail through an Internet of chaos and disorder like icebreakers leaving a trail of ordered, aligned wreckage in their wake.
2) Any program or method employed by a computer to evaluate the "entropic value" of a string in the end means absolutely nothing except that it correlates to other virtual "entropic values" of other strings like it using purely ordered, metered and aligned correspondences of information bits.
3) Computers interacting or evaluating entropy in any way lessens the True Entropy of a system (or password or system of passwords).
Allowing a computer to determine entropy nessesarilly reduces it and using such a limited symbolic representation like a keyboard will soon not contain enough variables to adequately retain enough entropy to withstand faster, cooler processors. One method I see for future "password" usage uses the old Ars Memoria or Art of Memory, which I think is somewhat touched upon in xkcd's "correcthorsebatterystaple" method.
In short, letting PCs choose what is random or not is the exact opposite of how true randomness works. We wouldn't trust a randomness engine without knowing how that engine generated the seed of entropy injected to cascade information complexity but knowing how it is done obliterates it's entropic value. In real short, I'm really stoned and I don't know what I'm talking about anymore and this post is too long and boring...I'm hungry dammit.
You guys mean Supreme Commander of the New Republic Defense Force Ackbar. Duh.
Just get or make a personal or vehicle-mounted binary flamethrower, they are totally unrestricted for owning or carrying in all states and territories.
An atom bomb constitutes a Destructive Device and doesn't cover the scope of the Bill of Rights.
Revolts, fires, Nero fiddling...pretty much.
That the guy said it wasn't newsworthy immediately tells everyone it is newsworthy, any good agent would know this. So what if he's doing a triple-bluff...
...about the guy with five penises?
His underwear fit like a glove.
I think that this was the plot of the show Riptide, except they were private detectives.
Unfortunately, the LAPD's helicopters can't detect their pilots being an oppressive gang of statist stormtrooper thugs worthy of total revilement, so it evens out.
I propose the next probe or mission to Ganymede be called Torchship 1.
This is the most "Why not Zoidberg" scenario ever.
Sunday night on the Row.
Never tell him the odds.
Whoa nice! I have mine in my garage along with the 1541 and 1530 drives but I think the power supply brick is screwed. You have your SN# recorded in the C64 registry? I have a rainbow style decal model, lol. The first games I played on it...Midway, Graverobbers and Telengard...all datacassette, bahahah.
