I'm not talking about the 'chacha' part, but rather the '@openssh.com' part.

It worked, didn't it?

Well, sure. For a very, very short amount of time.

Huh? Where was that implied?

The parent of this thread didn't either, they paid for a legitimate copy upon finding out that they had a pirated copy. The developer responded by giving them some nice swag, instead of banning and/or lawyering up as one might expect these days.

Also, why are you responding to something I said in a post I didn't say it in? I assume slashdot's threading is to blame.

I'm talking about "chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com" rather than the chacha20 or poly1305 parts :)

I hope you managed to copy more than just the executable ;)

I remember playing via dialup. That was 'fun' (people kept answering the phone)

Ah, back in the days when developers (and players) were (mostly) honest.

IDSPISPOPD - that was the fun one.

Clearly you are playing the wrong games, or you're not playing them in "hardcore" mode.

Generally, players (and other things) die in 1 to 3 hits.

When I search for my handle (not this one, this one is ancient and I don't use it anywhere else :P) all I find are things I think I'd want employers to see.

Bug reports and such, discussions about Kerbal Space Program, my photography stuff... all things I would be proud to show off. Yes, I find and report bugs. Yes, when I don't know how to do something, I ask. Yes, I know enough about orbital mechanics to get by. Yes, I can operate a camera and somehow have resisted pointing it at (mine, or otherwise) genitalia.

You know not every site requires you to log in? Of course you do, AC.

Maybe you need a faster disk?
