I don't think it is the encryption protocols at risk really. Secure protocols exist now, they will continue to exist. It is the future hardware implementations and closed source software implementations that we will no longer be able t

I always suspected the reason we never got extensions in mobile Chrome is that they didn't want the ad blockers. I wasn't aware that Firefox mobile started supporting them. Going to give it a try.

No one supports uBlock. Browsers would have to specifically block the extension if they wanted to keep people from using it.

Perhaps that's the point. They have a secret method for checking the authenticity of a coin such that counterfeiters do not know to imitate. This doesn't help the population to distinguish counterfeits, but it may help the governm

The article references a date in the future as if it has already happened: > In April 2017, the National Institute of Standards and Technology followed suit, starting a public vetting process lasting 4 to 6 years.

I take your point, but I think it's a bit of an overstatement to say that all persuasion happens through repetition. Maybe I'm a bit full of myself, but I like to think that with sound enough logic, I could be persuaded from my

Regarding LE. It's not like it's a particularly new idea. Look how much our life expectancy has increased in just the last few hundred years. I would imagine that 100 years ago, there were those saying the same thing. That anyone

First, I appreciate your nuanced response about the ACLU. > IMO too many politically left-leaning people have an irrational fear of guns. The fact that you could place the word 'irrational' in front of 'fear of guns'

How can we expect our kids to be able to use computers when their schools are censoring the word "proxy" from their web searches? And really? No YouTube? Give me a break. The difference between a prison and a grade school? Prison

This is part of it, but not the whole thing. Withdrawals will involve pain, but also depending on how much and how long someone had been taking opiates, you will also experience: physical flu symptoms, insomnia, anxiety, induced restless le

They probably had to give you a strong dose to control the pain. Generally if you take too much with a low tolerance you aren't going to have such a good time (even though you definitely won't be in pain anymore). If you hadn'

This is not true. The courts found that a president can pardon a supposed crime before charges have even been filed, as well as any time before or after trial/conviction. This was the case with Ford's pardoning of Nixon, as well a

I would assume you are counted as 3 or 4 people. I think this is restricted by the Facebook ToS and is one of the reasons they try to collect real names, which admittedly doesn't really fix the issue.

The problem would be when a paying customer comes up while a non paying person is waiting. Does the paying customer cut in front of the waiting one? If so, the waiting time gets reset? Or do you just make the paying customer wait as well?

Now I'm confused. What is a non-theory? O.o Theories by definition, may not be correct. It's still a theory. How does one become a non-theorist? I suppose by non-theorizing.
