And nobody is a "minor player" with something so complex as Xen
There are hundreds, probably thousands, of "minor players". Just look at something like http://lowendbox.com/ or WebHostingTalk. Most of them use OpenVZ because it has less overhead, but Xen is still pretty common as it has fewer limitations (like you can load whichever module you want).
That's horrible use case. It really should not matter if the hacker can get your used one time token after you have entered it. Of course, it's bigger deal if they are not actually one time tokens like in Wildstar (you can use the token until it expires), but that should be fixed by making them one time tokens.
Oh yeah, and their reasoning was that it would protect users against drive-by Javascript keylogger (on desktop client).
Salts do provide protection against that. Salts are secret if you want them to be (you can protect the plain text salt same way as you do protect your plain text keys for encryption), you only need to share them when other party has to be able to hash their original data.
Here are some sha1 hashes:
So, how about you tell me what that last number combination is? I can give you a hint that it matches regex
What? The only thing you would learn is that one license & medallion number (as in, you know which hash means that combination). You wouldn't know the actual salt (unless the hash algorithm was complete shit/your salt is too short for bruteforce).
Doesn't sound a very good idea to do in C... Sure, you can always #define +, but don't wonder why all of your coworkers will hate you for it.
Like that matters. We don't trust most of the things, but public is perfectly happy with them (until shit hits the fan). Convenience tends to triumph security.
If someone calls that there's a hostage situation a long way from the address of payphone (like few states away), one patrol should be enough to assess the situation on-site.
80MBytes/sec = 640Mbps. That's about 600x higher than what Netflix uses for 1080p. 4K has only 4x as many pixels as 1080p. 1080p BR has 40Mbps maximum video bitrate.
Centralized login to what? To Windows there's also at least Novell OES + eDirectory + Novell Client. To Linux you can use PAM with RADIUS for example.
Why? 1.3 is supposed to be coming Q2 2014. It wouldn't hurt to wait a bit, would it (and the likely already have all the required details anyway)?
How do you start applications? Go to desktop and click the icon? Press the Windows menu and find the application from there? Start from Pinned application or whatever it's called (which is okay as long as you don't have tons of applications you are using)? Personally, I find it much easier to just press Windows key, type the few first letters from program name and press enter.
Also, I like to use it to check the time as I have autohide on (and that's one of the largest reasons I dislike the Windows 8 Start view).
I'm still waiting for tootbrush that looks a bit like mouthguard which I could just bite for a bit and let it handle the brushing almost instantly.
And on the seventh day, He exited from append mode.
