It's enrypted. Apparently using a lossy enryption sheme.

Mod parent informative.

I bet if the platinum cylinder were in orbit, the weight would be way off from 2.2 lbs. It would still be a Kg though (not accounting for missing mass discussed in the NIST article).

Next thing, it will be making desserts.

Apparently, he may turn in his yellow shirt for a political position: Facebook campaign

In fact, even wikipedia references power monitoring attacks. And, yes, that's been sitting in Wikipedia since before March 2008.
I agree, not really headline news.

A Beowulf cluster of exercise bikes. Duh.

On top of which, the guy who made the card also happens to be the guy who wrote the bauble app (only 59p).

Nice way to promote the app (but shame on the /. editors).

But you are right, I can't find any app called keystone.

Here's a real world example which came up yesterday:

% man getpagesize

... The function getpagesize() returns the number of bytes in a page, where a "page" is the thing used where it says in the description of mmap(2) that files are mapped in page-sized units. ...

I guess you can decipher this, but perhaps they should use a weaker cipher for writing docs.

A little Python program to help you out:

gb = 1024**3
tb = 1024**4
mem = int(raw_input("Enter your machine's RAM in GB: ")) * gb
cat = 114*tb
print 'The cat has %d times more RAM than you' % (cat/mem)

Yes, I've only seen the problems under the VM (I haven't had the opportunity to install on real hardware yet). It could be that the VM graphics drivers aren't playing nice with KK (or vice versa).

I have run Jaunty, Hardy, Dapper, FC, and other distributions without any issues on the same VM, so my suspicions are that it might be something with KK. But I don't know for certain.

I have faith that the final release of KK will work swimmingly and I look forward to it.

My experience with 32-bit Karmic (running in a VM) wasn't that great.

The changes to xorg weren't picked up in my VM properly and so I ended up with a small monitor resolution which I couldn't change. There was also a lot of instability with X (I think). After copying an xorg.conf file from Jaunty, the VM wouldn't start X properly and I had to toss the VM. I probably could have fixed it, but there was nothing special on the VM so it was easier to restart.

This is running the VMs under a 64 bit version of Jaunty - with multiple procs assigned to the VM.

Windows? I've had better results running it in a VM. But, I only run Windows a couple of times a year.

From the FA, the longest password hacked was: "lafaroleratropezoooooooooooooo" (30 characters).

This was a phishing attack. The strength of the password didn't matter.

The article talks about analysis of password data and doesn't really point out anything we didn't know already.
