How Chrome for Android handles this, which supports encrypted sync, is that after logging in it will prompt you for your real password so that it can decrypt the sync data.

A normal (i.e non hidden) TrueCrypt volume is also by default filled with random data. With a hidden volume you first create the normal volume, which as part of that fills the file with random data, then create the hidden volume inside the

Hm, that is strange. It does not even tax my CPU enough to kick it out of its lowest speed state, let alone tax any of the cores.

I'm confused, is the green screen suppose to be intentionally bad? It not only removes the background but most of the people as well. Edit: Here is what it looks like for me: http://i.imgur.com/8wflg8Q.jpg in both Firefox 21 and Chrome 29

For me, personally, none of these changes interest me, perhaps with the exception of IE11. I've had Windows 8 installed on my desktop PC since it came out as I took advantage of their cheap upgrade offer from Windows 7 (I'd not of paid full

How else can you deal with it though? The whole point of the prerendering is that it fetches and renders the page in the background to be displayed to the user when they click on the link. You can't handle the prerender request differently

I don't see a situation where you are unable to get console access as an acceptable situation. You don't need to be using a smart card to require local console access if things go bad. What about if the SSH server fails or someone applies a

It does not matter if you lose your SSH private keys though as they are disposable and you can just generate new ones, it's not like they are being used to encrypt anything. To add your new public key to your servers you either get someone
