They are using it to pump the economy. The heating produced by this cluster must be cooled with extra air conditioning systems, increasing the demand for power and for air conditioning unis, thus creating new jobs and incentivizing the research for new energy sources.

No, they not. That's the point of double hashing. If you know 'xyz' you still need to know 'opqr' to send a valid hash (remember that you need to hash 'xyz-opqr' with the session salt). Since the server never sends 'opqr' to the client, the only way to generate it is through HASH(xyz + plaintext_password).

This is nonsense. You can double hash passwords. That's the correct way:

plaintext: 1234
salt: xyz
salt+plaintext hash: opqr
you store on DB: xyz-opqr

when the user requests the login page, the server creates a new salt, stores it in the session (server side) and sends the two salts to the client (session one and DB one):

server extracts salt from DB: xyz
server creates a session salt: abc
client receives session salt: abc
client receives DB salt: xyz
user enters password: 1234
client hashes using DB salt: opqr
1st hash is: opqr
1st hash with salt is: xyz-opqr
client hashes using session salt: hijk
2nd hash is: hijk
client sends the twice hashed password to the server: hijk

Now the server hashes the DB password using the session salt (that was stored on the server side session, remember not to trust the info from the client), and the two should be the same, without the server needing to know the plaintext password.

This is basic auth and security stuff. Which means sony must have hired some second hand programmers to develop this whole system. Creepy indeed.

OSX is what Linux wants to be when it grows up.

Don't get me wrong, I love Linux, I use it since 95, and I wouldn't install anything different to a server. But right now Linux interface (yes, Gnome, I'm talking about you) feels so old it's frustrating. And don't get me started about the beautiful-but-hiper-unstable KDE ... If KDE's stylists wold support Gnome's good but aesthetically blind developers, we may be on to something.

But right now Linux feels stuck on FVWM95, while OSX provides a CLI just as powerful (MacPorts rule, BTW) and a consistent-yet-usable-yet-nice-looking GUI.
