They can't know that however, they may say it but they can't know it. Hence why not choose key lengths by looking at encoding and decoding resource usage instead of crackability. By costs nothing I mean as CPUs get faster there is

by roomey 3y ago
Well, we can't know. Maybe it would be trivial, maybe it could keep your data safe for 5ore years. Maybe it could double the cost to crack. No one can know at the moment, hence the trade off, if it costs very little to do a longer key,

I think the point is as computers get faster there is less trade off in having longer bit lengths, rather than focusing on the potential to crack sad keys. That is, if it costs very little to have larger keys, why not have larger keys? It i

Absolutely, after using xfce for years I find windows very frustrating to use, to the point I can see my colleagues using it and I can see the lag they just think is normal. Imagine if you work on computers for hours everyday what the cumul

This is hard to understand, windows is slow, and you are complaining that windows is what, slower than it used to be? Why not use something faster? I get no lag with xfce

In Europe you can just cancel easily and they offer a refund or keep it till the end of the month (I cancelled a few weeks ago)

Yes, particularly as it isn't anonymous, and GDPR covers internet handles. If Reddit were to fight this in Europe (which is what would happen) I imagine they would loose

Well... They only know metric, would be a recipe for disaster!

Well that's the thing isn't it... Reddit can just reopen all these subs if it wants, and replace mods as it wants... It owns the platform. Who owns the platform controls the message. Sometimes metaphors help me... This is like dri

I think it is fairer to say US tax law allows Google to avoid US corporation tax no?

Any reccomended alternatives? I've used them because they seemed the most reputable in the murky world of domain name providers.

I added a fediverse plugin to my wordpress blog and then just boost it when I post. I mean, I get like 100 views, but that's ok for me. The reason I'm saying this is because it feels like for the first time in a long time there is

I'm sorry, but buying things on the internet wasn't laughed at, if anything people were worried about it cause of their credit card numbers. It was that basis of the dot com boom of the late 90s. Everyone saw the potential and las

You can move, it brings your followers and details, but I think it looses your post history. I just picked one from my geographic region, all good!

Awesome! The text for the slides isn't the problem, but making the slides is a pain and a wate of time (for me)

On a different note, the lack of support for parents of children with Autism is just really really shit, and it seems like where the heart of the problem is here

I do understand, but the fact that tech is a massive employer in Ireland is absolutely relevent. Also, I'm not sure why you think most tech companies with their HQs in Ireland don't have significant presence here? For example, Goo

What is with this "handful" of jobs line that he seem to be pushing about tech in Ireland? Does he not realise what a small population Ireland is? Tech is a massive employer in Ireland, it also creates a bunch of other service re

Kinda, but it's not creator owned, which I think is the key thing here. Is there still webrings like there used to be?

Webrings, we need webrings back. Search is fine for people searching for something, but when just "surfing" or browsing for interesting stuff, we end up on this site, or some other centralised site that will constantly try and pul

It must give an evolutionary advantage, or we wouldn't sleep. It may be hard to pin point exactly what advantage, but as we do it, it must have given us an advantage!

Did this originate in "stranger in a strange land"? I assumed it did, but so many references to grokking don't mention the book (which goes into great detail about what it means)

So there isn't a rocky core spinning really fast, which makes sense as friction would have surely spent that as heat? Instead they speak about a mixed core extending to half the radius. Can anyone explain what differential rotation mea

I'm ok with that tax band at that level. And I imagine the majority of people in Ireland are, as there is no political appetite to tax the wealthiest people less. People in finance and IT can make a ton compared to other folk. If the t

by roomey 3y ago
Well it isn't quite like this. The personal tax rate is banded, so only your income _above_ a certain amount is taxed at 52%. Like, it's a progressive way to tax, rather than a lower flat rate. Also, the gov just announced a big s
