Why not just use Amazon or Google music and download everything ? Google Music is especially good because it lets you download a .zip with complete album compared to Amazon that only lets you download one song at a time. I used to buy and r

No that is not a solution. If they swapped the public key they can read the message being sent back (it is encrypted with their public key), then encrypt it again with the real public key. The only solution is to use another channel to auth

The most difficult part in your setup is to make untraceable the VPN you run after going through Tor. The problem is: if you believe this VPN is safe / untraceable enough, why do you even use Tor in the first place ? The problem is tha

Nice project. Are the source available ? It would be nice to use but I'd rather host/use it locally. Besides I don't know which font (Symbola?) you use in the .pdf but it appears ugly (part of the 'o' is missing and

Thank you for saying that. I would add that you need not to have ADHD, drug problems or gotten pregnant as a disadvantage: you might just come from a social/family background that encourages you to take a job as soon as you finish high

Here is an article [1] trying to estimate that kind of numbers (wage, number of active workers, etc.) from various sources and questionning the ethics of using MTurk for science purposes. The bottom line is: one third of tasks are achieved

They might have changed the page since your comment but this is on the page : "Android 5.0 Lollipop, which comes on Nexus 6, Nexus 9 and Nexus Player, will also be available on Nexus 4, 5, 7, 10 and Google Play edition devices in the c

I agree that you need some user input or the program will get it wrong in some cases. But the distinction between source and destination is relevant with some algorithms (one-way sync) and irrelevant in others. Let say you have two director

> Sync has always meant merging semantic changes in state between two or more devices. That is a definition of file synchronization [1]. Usually the aim of "syncing" is to input two directories and the outcome is that the conte

Very cool! Does anything similar exist for Android ? I would love to use some bash scripts but I don't find the terminal editors I tried practical.

What would be the "good" alternative ? I often tries "rmdir" or "rm -r" if the directory is not empty and very often there are some "protected files" so I add -f. Thus it happens that I directly lauch

I am not ignoring the reality: public or semi-public posts (facebook) are not going anywhere and should be considered public information. Reading my previous post you can surely infer that I disagree with the mass spying but not that I am (

The article misses the working part of the law. Book prices in France are not a free market since we have a fixed book price law ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_book_price_agreement ) meaning that the publisher dec

"These letters were sent due to a computer error, the agency said in a message posted online" No this is a human error. Are they trying to avoid responsibility when this is a minor (and a little funny) mistake ?

Yes but, for instance, if you lived under a fascist anti-gay regime and were gay you would hide it very actively. On the opposite gays today, through their correspondances, might be quiet easily spotted by the NSA or anyone with access to t

Problem is the next governments will inherit the surveillance system. Who says they won't be fascists and/or turn the country into dictatorship ? When this happens, we might see these mass arrests. A lot can change in only a few d

I guess the new license only applies to the release it is distributed with and this latest version removed encryption features so I doubt it will make the truecrypt project more compatible with FOSS licenses.

Your latest point can be resolved through explicitly asking authors to cite the paper rather than linking to the website/github repo. For instance I used Intel Pintools and they specify in their FAQ[1] : I used Pin for my latest paper.

The [1]'s article wording is a bit wrong, "Gendarmerie" is not "French national police". Gendarmerie is a part of the military but acting as a police force mostly in rural areas. French national police, operating in

He addresses your third point in the FAQ: Why is there no “no warranty” clause? The WTFPL is an all-purpose license and does not cover only computer programs; it can be used for artwork, documentation and so on. As such, it only covers copy

It goes futher than that in OTR. After the ephemeral keys are out of use, the public keys (used for encryption, not decryption) are broadcasted so if later someone gets an old encrypted message, it could "effectively" have be writ

I loved the IP Avian Carriers too. My favorite is "Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol" or RFC 2324, defining the HTTP error 418 "I'm a teapot".
