Bitmessage is awful for the user, and for security. Minutes to send a message due to the POW requirements, but a botnet can send as much spam as it wants. It's more an excuse to be associated with Bitcoin than to introduce any real sec

There would be no assurance that the binary is compiled from the source though.

That's just it really. On its own ou wouldn't trust it, but mixed in with /dev/random can't hurt. XOR random bytes with a constant stream and it's still just as random.

Nope. Made a tonne selling mining devices though. Paid my rent for a few months.

We'll sign the out of band letters with their signing key to prove it's aut- wait. Chicken and egg problem.

It's slow at times even on the most recent iPad. >5 seconds of complete non-responsiveness when you change a wallpaper, for example.

I've read them both and still have no idea what this product/service/thing is.

That's right, just the parallax effects are gone. The main annoying ones that take a full second or so are the ones in the unlock screen, and they can't be disabled.

Settings.app > General > Accessibility > Reduce Motion Doesn't remove all the whsihy in and out of Springboard.app ones though, so you'll have to wait for a jailbreak to be completely animation-free.

They would be done in the way that I personally do, or at least something similar. The private key is split using Shamir's Secret Sharing Scheme into several pieces, which is then printed as a high-redundancy QR code and then hidden. T

Curiously, a SIM can enforce bookmarks and contacts on a new iPhone- but they're certainly deletable.

We do this thing quite a lot actually. Most news articles that are positive will try to have some tie in with Australia to make it relevant to the readers. Maybe the bolts used to tie together the worlds highest balloon ride are made by an

If somebody can tamper with your HTTP connections on the fly, they can surely rewrite the DNS too.

Curiously, CERN made the same decision and came out the other way. For quite a time they mined Bitcoin using the spare CPU cycles of their data processing farms.

That's in a literal sense. I meant mining as a replacement for having a job, not so much that the mining itself was a job. You're right in every way though.

I expected a budget service, but they've been anything but that. Their support staff aren't just reading off a script, their instances are fast and downtime non existent. In this case the user fucked up and was made part of a botn

There's certainly people who have lucked out and made a considerable amount of money that would, for all intents, be a replacement job for them. Some of the early Avalon machines would have been making hundreds of dollars a day when th

Not casually. I've a little ASIC device sitting in the corner, but it's more a mild curiosity than any actual income. I've made a lot more money reselling the devices than I have mining with then.

The story ultimately ends when Anthony decides to switch to Litecoin mining, and gets rather burnt by the whole experience. http://reckoner.com.au/2013/07/my-three-months-as-a-litecoin...

Not a fan of it all, but massive congratulations for them including the different weights properly.

You likely won't be able to do anything at all, as the client is fairly dumb. It just takes requests from Apple's server, encrypts with CTR AES and a static key, then fires them off to the Chinese server for actual processing. Unl

That makes sense with my very limited experience messing with the iMessage protocol. Stands to reason that passwords are being ferried back to them though, there's got to be some financial reason for going to all this trouble. ED: Thei
