The good news is, a lot of old secrets won’t really matter anymore by the time we have quantum computers that can break the encryption. There will obviously be a big impact on information that was encrypted just before we get a working quantum computer that can crack modern crypto.

In cryptography discussions, I feel like we’re usually implying (or even saying out loud) that the encryption is secure for a sufficient amount of time and computer power. Perhaps people outside of cryptography don’t know it, but I think there is a reasonable expectation that encrypted communications could be decrypted at some point in the future. We just hope it’s sufficiently far enough away (or difficult enough) to not be a problem.

Honestly as soon as we get some good post-quantum crypto, we’ll probably want to switch over to it asap, even if good quantum computers are still far out, just to help alleviate some of this problem. Of course, I imagine we’re still going to be finding new things once the technology is real and being used. Let’s hope the post-quantum cryptography algorithms we come up with actually are strong against a sufficiently large quantum computer.

I mean, yes? Here’s another photo from the same shoot posted on their Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CVQzDKmhVxN/?igsh=MTl1N25xemZhN3hwMw==

This is it! Old water coolers

He actually is pretty heavyset in his role in The Exorcism, which just came out. I don’t know if it was intentional but it certainly fits with his character in the film.

Nice, that’s a good point! I didn’t think of that.

Not opposed to this, but why do I want this?

I suppose many responsive sites have a maximum content width that is admittedly a lot smaller than many displays these days. I guess this lets you use a couple more pixels of vertical space by trading the wasted horizontal space.

My gluten intolerant ass will never know this joy again

Wow this is unethical. They should all be separate toggles.

A friend of mine wrote a dissertation on surreal memes a few years ago.

Not really on board with pageants but congrats to her.

This is also addressed in Hancock (2008).

Yeah I grew up trusting my local tap water which I drank regularly, and then I saw what happened in Flint and I became a little more wary. I always filter my water at home now.

Dang so it was sneakernet dropbox for Windows 95? That’s honestly sick.

Thanks for the explanation!

What is the biblical symbol you’re referencing? Explain it like I’m not a Christian (I’m not lol).

Many locals choose to just call it “National Airport” for this reason

I have gamepass and I’m happy with it. I tend to dabble in a lot of games instead of playing one game for a long time.

One new game costs $60 to purchase. For me personally there is little chance I will be playing it 4 months from now.

Alternatively I can pay for gamepass and play any of those games for $15 a month. The only situation where this ends up being a worse deal is if I only play one game for more than four months, which so far has not happened for me.

I realize that doesn’t make sense for everyone, though.

First three search queries I did had zero results. Seems cool but not enough stuff indexed, I guess.
