    Rogue One - Star Wars Fan Service

    Fair enough, different people are entitled to their own opinions. That said, please use spoiler tags since not everyone has seen the movie.

    I couldn't disagree with you more about this.

    Rogue One - Star Wars Fan Service

    I'm not sure I would go that far. I'm going to need to rewatch it a few times to be sure but I think it's close. That said the reasoning being: [/spoiler]

    Rogue One - Star Wars Fan Service

    I really liked it, and immediately went home and watched episode 4 again after seeing it. Then rewatched some parts of episode 7. My conclusion from doing so is that Lucas is by far the worst Star Wars director.

    New Star Trek Beyond trailer

    I'm sort of shocked that it's sitting at 90% positive, but hey different strokes for different folks. I'm not a fan of it, but that doesn't mean other people might not like it.

    New Heroes of the Storm Trailer Spotlights Tracer

    It feels like Tracer and Winston are the face of the good guys while Black Widow and random guy in cloak are the face of the bad guys. Consider there have been 3 cinematic combat trailers and 4 cinematic trailers: Tracer: In all 4 with a speaking role each time Winston: In 3 with a...

    FBI Can't Win: Apple Engineers Will Quit Before Unlocking iPhone

    Not a problem Sorry I might have been a bit off topic with the RSA bit. A token server cannot function offline nor can it be used for encryption. Tokens are only usable for authentication. This is not possible while maintaining a mathematically sound encryption algorithm. What you...

    FBI Can't Win: Apple Engineers Will Quit Before Unlocking iPhone

    In the case of Blizzard this is because they likely maintain their own token servers. So if you can own the token server you could have just as easily have owned the user's accounts more directly. This has happened to another company however in 2011 RSA was hacked and this caused the seeds for...

    FBI Can't Win: Apple Engineers Will Quit Before Unlocking iPhone

    So I'm not talking about the key word being "applerules" and suddenly everyone can get into phones. These systems use encryption, but they aren't actually encryption systems themselves. These are authentication systems that use a shared symetric key which is generated at the time the device...

    FBI Can't Win: Apple Engineers Will Quit Before Unlocking iPhone

    For the sake of clarity this amounts to: 1. Generate the encryption key 2. Using a public key to decrypt the encryption key. This part isn't possible. Cryptography doesn't respect physical demarcations. While the code you wrote to unlock the key could respect it if anyone got their...

    FBI Can't Win: Apple Engineers Will Quit Before Unlocking iPhone

    It erases the decryption key for your phone, which effectively erases everything. The difference is that it takes far less time.

    FBI Can't Win: Apple Engineers Will Quit Before Unlocking iPhone

    You're somewhat right. 2048 bit encryption only refers to asymmetric key cryptography, which is not what's being used here. I haven't had a chance to work with iPhone Decryption, but based on literature in the field it basically works as follows: Step 1: Provide a Passcode (usually a 4 to 6...

    Dungeons & Dragons Movie Will Be Guardians of the Galaxy-Style "Romp"

    A good D&D movie needs to embrace the camp and just have fun.
