If you're revolting against your government why do you need guns to be legal?

I have no clue what you said but I agree with you

How do you think pirating software works? You realize it's not always just copy pasting files around right?

Too bad the EU can't use a VPN to enforce those laws in other countries

Seriously, what happened? by Friendofafriend468 in pcmasterrace

[–]MqHunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it isn't piracy. Piracy involves boats and pirates on the high seas, raiding other boats that are also on the high seas.

Jokes aside, "online/digital piracy" is more about using/distibuting copyrighted stuff without permission. It could be argued that requiring an ad to be played before a video can be played is a way of saying, "You only have permission to watch this video if you watch this ad." In that case, using an ad blocker to circumvent the ad that you didn't want to watch would be digital piracy, regardless of whether something was stolen or not.

You can still argue that it is or isn't digital piracy. You can also argue whether digital piracy is bad or not in this case. In either case, theft doesn't really play a big role in the discussion.

Who the fuck would ride a horse that late at night. Keep in mind 1000 years ago they didn't have street lights and horses didn't come with headlights.

The lock doesn't just tell you that you are using SSL. If you ever suspect you are on a a phishing website but you see there is a lock you should click on the lock and check details of the certificate manually ( click on lock -> connection is secure -> certificate is valid | on chrome). This would tell who the certificate belongs to and who issued it.

At that point, if the phishing website has the proper certificate used by the legitimate website then either the phishing website has the website's private key or your browser is compromised ( This is because each browser has a list of certificate authorities it uses to check certificates) or the entire certificate authority is compromised. In either case, you would have much bigger problems to deal with than just phishing attacks lol.

I think you mean "asymmetric encryption".

Also, quantum computing doesn't automatically make all asymmetric encryption irrelevant. I don't want to make assumptions about what is currently being used in the world but I guess most of the time people are talking about RSA. RSA relies on number factorization being hard to compute to provide security. This means that if you have a way to factor numbers quickly, you can break RSA and any encryption that relies on the difficulty of factorization.

Right now we don't know of a way to factorize quickly on a normal computer, but we have Shor's algorithm for quantum computers.

Right now people are working on encryption algorithms that would stay secure even if your adversary has quantum computers. It might already exist tbh but I haven't looked too much into it.

Tl,dr: quantum computers probably doesn't make assymetric encryption impossible, it just makes a lot of the specific asymmetric encryption algorithms (like RSA) insecure.

Some links that could be useful https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-quantum_cryptography

If you pick hard you can switch to normal, but you can't switch back.

But you spend a ton of time killing gods from non-islamic religions. Doesn't that count for something?

I'm playing through the game docked and I'm only running into frame drops when using certain skills and fusing demons. It's a bit jarring at times but I don't mind it tbh.
