I'm getting down voted for this so I'd be interested to know why. You really do get rights for a friend if they have their own copy. So it doesn't cost millions.

Good idea in theory but it doesn't really work. If someone (like you) can change the code that the client gets then they can simply remove or fake the hash checking code.

Well I wouldn't say they have only a single line of business. Yes, they make pretty much all of their profits from advertising. However they no longer just do searches. They do email, file hosting etc. You name it and they probably do

Personally I prefer the original font. The thicker letters would likely photocopy better too. I use a Brother printer that cost me £40 2-4 years ago. I can buy 20 cartridges from Amazon that work perfectly for just £12.90 with shipping on A

Awww. I was really hoping it would be a nuclear reactor that I could buy and use to power my electrical devices forever. I've got to say I was quite disappointed to find it was just a large battery.

Sadly that javascript miner is stupidly slow. You could have a top Hacker News post and still only make pennies.

No. He's just making fun of the idea that men and women should be identical and should be 50/50 on everything. In actuality women and men do different things and have different interests. It's kind of crazy to pass up a bette

There's a huge gap in the market if no programs are coded for non-English non-males. You're argument is quite a silly one to me as clearly it's not that big of an issue, people can normally make things for a different target

Can someone please test this with me. http://instapainting.com/2x2048/index.html#a2sfouwg03aw0zfr Edit: Humn, now just says "blue's turn". I can't do anything...

I like this idea. I guess you might get away with just sshing to a machine if you could secure that.

Good idea but there's quite a lot of exploits in virtual machines that let them infect the host machine too. :P So it's really pretty hard to stay safe. You could always run your OS from a read-only CD? At least you'd be none

It's a great game. Just my sort of thing really and I really like the music. It only took a couple of minutes to beat though so it's a little short. Then again for a weeks work it's fine. Keep up the good work.

I got a single square with 256 in it and a score of 2016 before I got bored. It's addictive and fun but a single game is much too long. I would like to lose a few times and improve but with a game this long I get bored before I've

Thank god. Perhaps someone will be able to understand how to legally use Bitcoins in the UK soon (and then they can explain it to me). I've sold some Bitcoins in the past but stopped as I have no idea how tax etc works on them (and can

Awesome. I've already played through it on my Gentoo computer using wine but will enjoy playing through it again and doing the online co-op missions when this version is out of beta. It's a great game, very worth playing if you ha

I find it amazing that they actually got the correct answer. How on earth did they guess that?

It can do the amount people are currently listing. So right now you can buy about 65 MtGox-bitcoins for 0.4 real bitcoins each (or less).

That no longer works in newer Firefox (and I think Chrome?). You can turn that back on in about::settings though. edit: Ooops, someone had already made a post to this effect. Sorry.

Our of interest how much would you be willing to pay per search and would you be doing searches for text only or HTML code? Finally is it important to you that the data be very fresh? For example is a month old copy of the internet enough f

I do however think that I am correct in thinking that provided that any one of your sources is "true" and independent then the xor'd string of binary will be completely random. You cannot xor an unkown random binary string an
