Brighter than a full moon... The comet of the century
at0m replied to Bert&Ernie's topic in News & Notices
There's some reports that atleast part of the nucleus has survived. Edit: This hasn't been confirmed by NASA yet -
Looking forward to seeing it progress

The Currency Revolution - With Bitcoin
at0m replied to qwertyuiop's topic in Sustainable Technologies & Ethical Living
Broke $1000 USD last night, reached $1070, dipped down to $915 again and is now around $1040. Now if it would just settle around here, that'd be great. LUWA: China is chasing us. Even some of our cheapest exchanges like Bitstamp still have a premium over BTCN. -

Solar Powered Bitcoin Mining Design Project
at0m replied to Slybacon's topic in Sustainable Technologies & Ethical Living
Their profit is when they accepted BTC for their orders over 2 years ago when bitcoin was worth MUCH less than it is now. The miners people bought them are basically worthless now, if they've got them yet. That's something you have to consider aswell, which I'm not sure you have, ASICs have a HUGE lead time. Order now and you'll be lucky to get it in 6 months. By then, the difficulty would have increased by a shitload. -

This is by no definition of the term complete. Please help by correcting my mistakes or points I may have missed. Use it as you see fit but what you do with it is not my responsibility. If this isn't allowed, please remove it. GPG Links: http://www.gnupg.org/ - Main GPG website http://www.gpg4win.org/ - GPG for Windows What is GPG: In simpler words: GPG is a tool used to sign (to prove authorship) and also to encrypt messages or files to ensure only the intended recipient can access the decrypted content. Pictorials: Windows - Installing GPG4Win Windows - Creating your first public key Windows - Exporting your public key Windows - Basic text encryption Windows - Basic text decryption The commands in those pictorials should work with both Mac and Linux aswell. The installation, however, would be different. TODO: Signing More detail GUI version (Using Kleopatra) Flesh this out Add some basic truecrypt information? Fix errors?

Poll - Best Punishment Options for Minor Possession Convictions?
at0m replied to Slybacon's topic in Chill Space
I'm voting 'other' because my thoughts on the matter don't fit squarely into any one of those. If it's non-violent and their use isn't harming them or the people around them, I don't agree with any form of punishment - that is to say, it shouldn't be a crime at all. HOWEVER, if their use is causing physical/mental/emotional harm to others then I'd consider some form of treatment as 'punishment'. With all the money saved from wasted resources on policing small possession charges I'm sure some of it could be put back into a rehab/counseling fund for the cases described above. The treatment would have to fit the seriousness of the issue. This would have to be worked out by a group far more qualified than myself though. Perhaps a 'strike' system? Counseling -> Rehab -> Fine? A fine if they don't complete the programs? I'm not exactly sure about the details. -

Would it be possible to get a trade rep addon for the forum? I understand it'd be very hard, probably impossible, to port in the old rep info from the rep forum but as the saying goes... "The best time to plant a tree was 10 years ago, the second best time is now". The reasons for a rep addon: It can be displayed on the users's profile & posts. No need to go hunting for their rep thread. It's far more concise. Going through a rep thread can be a bit of a pain. Especially if it's a long one. Easier to keep track of with username changes and whatnot. You can use it as an ACL. Got no rep? You can't post in the freebies thread or rate anyone else (so stop abuse). I'm not sure if it can be that fine grained but you get my point, I hope.

Bumpity bump. I still haven't gotten around to finishing/redoing this (that happens a lot, can you tell?) but I do have an awesome addition for you guys, girls and other life forms: Mailvelope! It's PGP, in your browser! Who's it for? For those of you not comfortable with a command line and aren't after an application which requires heaps of copy and pasting to get your messages about, this one's for you (and me because I like it. Makes shit easy). So basically, everybody. So what does it do? It encrypts and decrypts messages on the fly, in your browser, without sending any network traffic whilst performing the encryption/decryption so it can't be sniffed or blocked. It also works with both Chrome/Chromium & Firefox though from my experience the Firefox version is sadly not as good as it locks up a fair bit. Why should I trust it? That's ultimately up to you but here's why I would trust it: It implements the safe & secure (even, supposedly, against certain somebodies) OpenPGP encryption standard using OpenGPG.js, not some wonky, half-assed 'alternative' It's opensource! You can check out the source yourself if that's your thing but even if you don't understand the code behind it, you can trust in the fact that it's a project being used by many others who do read the source and use it themselves. So basically trust that others trust it. because it works So it works with webmail providers and that's cool and all but how do I get it working with SAB or another website which I'd like to encrypt my communications on? Easy peasey lemon squeezey! Here's a really brief example with Firefox. Chrome/Chromium will be almost identical it's just that the location of the icon will have changed (top right, where all your other addon icons are). Install the addon Restart your browser (for good measure) Load any page on the SAB forums Find the icon (bottom right in Firefox, top right in Chrome/Chromium) and click "Add page" (hit save for good measure) Select "Security" and change your token & colour to something you'll remember (this is so other people can't falsify the page to steal your key/message) Generate or import a key (self explanatory. MAKE SURE YOU DON'T FORGET THIS! Passwords are a MUST for private keys) Import other people's public keys (be sure they are who they say they are ) Load up a PM (or even a thread?) to the person you want to contact Click the icon that appears inside the editor Write your message Click the icon again in the top right of the pop-out editor Select the recipients (ONLY the people selected via this previous section can read the message!) Hit Ok Press Transfer Voila, the encrypted message should now be in the editor If anyone wants to try it out on me, my public key is listed in my profile. Just follow the instructions above, in a PM, and if you include your public key I'll respond in kind. Hopefully this will help encryption become more common and easily accessible to all and you can keep your carrots safe from prying wabbits.
