If this is a security / privacy related question, there is nothing to stop a program running under Windows from reading the data
There is also nothing to prevent anyone to just run some live Linux from USB, so consider data on that Linux partition neither secure, nor private
You can literally pay adblock plus for whitelisting your ad.
If you want to make the world better place, look elsewhere.
In a confession Aug. 21, however, Reiser said he used “the most unsophisticated chokehold that any judo instructor would completely despise you for ever using,” according to a 30-page transcript obtained by The Chronicle
I probably shouldn’t laugh, but… :D
that’s nice soundbite, i am just saying you have to be realistic. if you are aiming at people who up until now had their passwords on post-it on the monitor, switching to tool where you need to come up with some synchronization system on your own might not be what convinces them.
Which creates issue with having to synchronize it between devices. There is always something to worry about :)
But yes, there is an unrelated frustration where password requirements aren’t presented upfront.
And pinnacle of this frustration is “password too long”… Talk about security
found it, thank you
the onion address work as of right now
yes, in the sidebox on wiki…
what app? i also use the link from wiki and i dread the day it will be gone…
ok, i didn’t realize that, but this really puts lot of “piracy” arguments into perspective. because, unlike most “pirates”, these fuckers will be making billions using that stolen content
Troubador is not a random string
except it is not troubador. it is troubador, ampersand, digit.
if you know there are exactly two additional characters and you know they are at the end of the string, the first number is really slightly bigger (like 11 times)
once the random appendix is 3 characters or more, the second number wins
and moral of the story is: don’t use xkcd comic, however funny it is, as your guidance to computer security. yes, the comic suggestions are better than having the password on a post-it on your monitor, but this is 21st century ffs, use password wallet.
No, it would not. 2048 to the power of 4 is significantly less than 60 to the power of 11.

oh i absolutely do believe that
and that
other than that, i call bullshit 😆
i am not forgetting anything. using your portable device on network other than your own is your free choice and if you are such control freak that you are afraid of being spied on through dhcp, you probably should not do that.
there is always an option. unless you are pressured by lets say some state authority or your employee, in which case your identity is probably well known and they don’t really need to spy on you through dhcp.
Love the handle, BTW. :)
thank you
I think downloading is against Google’s TOS
maybe, but you are not going to jail for that. at least not today.
Most modern operating systems randomize the MAC.
that doesn’t seem to be uniform behaviour. but i think we agree on the merit. if you are this paranoid, you just don’t use networks where you don’t have control over the local segment.

Your router always knows your Mac address, no matter how you got your ip assigned. And yes, you can use it to identify the client - that is why it is there. This whole post is nonsense written by someone who doesn’t really understand what dhcp is or how it works. Long story short, don’t look for privacy on local Ethernet segment :D
I would say think twice whether you really need it. Encryption is another technological layer that can fail, so it is double edged sword and encrypting something “just to be on the safe side” might not be the best thing to do.
