I agree, I don't think it's going to happen with the iPhone. I realize most people aren't paranoid enough to want this. I am. I only hope that some company starts manufacturing a phone with this feature at some point, so pe

I also have it muted most of the day; usually all day. Which effectively makes it useless as it is. Perhaps this puts me in the biased position of feeling it may be used for another purpose.

It looks that the default Hash implementation depends on whether the system is 32-bit or 64-bit [1]. It's also not clearly documented what the default implementation of Hash really is. On a 32-bit system, yes, someone could probably do

Better advice: have the client pre-hash the password before sending to the server.

I agree, it's not an "exception". (Also, it appears that Rhode Island Reds do indeed have red earlobes and browns eggs. [1]). Weirdly, this article links to another article [2] which makes a very similar statement, but instea

I agree that bars on my windows are a lot to ask for, and lack elegance and convenience. My Linux OS can hibernate, and I've not found it to be noticeably inelegant or inconvenient. I suppose others' opinions may differ.

Hmm, I commend your point, however I think there is room for debate on both sides. To defend hibernation/shutdown: if I lose my laptop or it is stolen, and I realize I will never see it again, then at least I will have peace of mind th

Note that while Qubes OS uses full-disk encryption, it runs on Xen, which does not support hibernate. This means that, if you use this OS on a laptop, you'll be vulnerable to cold-boot attacks, even after you close your lid, unless you

Sure it does. A stream cipher is essentially the practical version of a one-time pad. Neither system is vulnerable to quantum attacks. For both, the weak link is in keeping the key secure. If you can keep a one-time pad secure, you can keep

If you trust a one-time pad---which no one actually uses---you can trust stream ciphers, which are actually practical.

Pertinent facts for the worried: 1) Git doesn't rely on SHA-1 for security. It relies on HTTPS, and a web of trust. 2) Even if git did rely on SHA-1, there's no imminent threat. What happened today was a SHA-1 collision, not a pr
