Wordfeud21st February 2012 Incidentally me and some friends stopped sniffing glue and speedballing a few years back when we learned that the latter had killed John Belushi and Chris Farley - I just used it as a point of comparison in this case. |

Wordfeud21st February 2012 Dunno if anyone else has it on their phone, but in case you're thinking about getting it, you should think twice. The free version has crashed my phone more times than I can count on two hands by freezing not only itself but the entire OS. Maybe this is a*snip* |

Learning WebDev20th February 2012 Learn PHP first, as it can be used to extend webservers to do things they weren't meant to do (such as facilitate patching). Don't bother learning Javascript, it's a steaming pile of shit. |

Rant Ahoy : Windows 8 Logo18th February 2012 I don't really care about the logo. But the thing I *do* care about is whether or not Windows 8 will be a cloud OS. If it will be, I'm buying a fucking mac and installing Linux on this PC. I won't risk having Microsoft telling me what I can and cannot ins*snip* |

Clues You're Getting Old..17th February 2012 The only way I manage to comfort myself that getting old isn't so bad is when I'm watching Britain's Greatest Machines with Chris Barrie and thinking ahead to when I retire.

File integrity13th February 2012 Yeah I don't doubt that MD5-hashes are tamper-proof, but I was worried about the filesize. Turns out hashes are much shorter in size than the actual file. :) As for CRC: [quote]There are many kinds of CRC algorithms. The primary aim of simpler CRC algori*snip* |

File integrity13th February 2012 Well, that's not what I meant. Apparently CRC32 and CRC16 are weak in that they can cause collisions (moreso than MD5), and also apparently can be circumvented (it is apparently possible to alter a file without changing its CRC). |

File integrity13th February 2012 I've started a tool called Manifestation for generating manifests for use with the patcher I wrote. Obviously I need a way to ensure file integrity when downloading, so I thought the best way would be to include a checksum for each file with the manifest.*snip* |
