A video you can interact with and has its own thoughts, feelings, motivations and such; sure.


On the other side, they brought a fingerprint reader that actually stored biometric data safely, innaccessible to the OS with the first secure enclave.


>software obsolescence by way of unpatched vulnerabilities.

The 5s from 2013 had a patch in January.


I'll sometimes go through the trouble of using `data:text/html,<script></script>`, but that is impressively replete.


It's not plain to me that ligatures might conflict with smallcaps. Certainly feels there's no good reason for that to be the case.


AES, particularly AES-256, is considered quantum resistant/safe. AES-128 could have its keysize effectively reduced to 64 bits with Grover's Algorithm (AES-256 to 128 bits), but scaling quantum computers to do that brute force search is not as straightforward as building a bunch of FPGAs or ASICs.


Being able to crack present-day communications in the future is still a concern.


Hence https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_secrecy to make things more difficult

Compromising the main keys isn't enough, need to compromise each session key as well in turn, a massive increase.


Forward secrecy does not provide any value against cryptography compromise. Quite the opposite as it depends on the security of the cryptography over the long term to insure old messages stay inaccessible after the key is forgotten.

Forward secrecy addresses this specific attack:

* Someone builds a archive of your encrypted messages, possibly without your knowledge or consent.

* That someone then gets access to your secret key material.

* They can then decrypt their archive.

The session keys are exchanged by the asymmetrical systems that the imagined quantum computer would be able to break. So the attacker gets the session keys directly. So for, say, signal, they only have to break a new key exchange which doesn't happen all that often. They can just run the hash ratchet after that. Even for TLS that does a new session key per connection, that connection might last a fair time. The 10 min can be spread over multiple connections for this proposal. We are hardly talking about a massive increase of difficulty.


I mean, it depends a little bit on what your threat model is. If it takes a week to break a key, and you have hundreds of thousands of tls sessions without knowing which is the relavent one, it is definitely something. But yeah it seems like it would quickly become a minor hurdle once real quantum computers become a thing and presumably have their own moore's law.


I'd imagine that's exactly why the NSA hoards the (rumored) absurd amount of data in the Utah data center


RAM requirements


How do they get the CO2 out of the sub?



(Which dumps the CO2 overboard, which is why the sub needs to constantly replenish the amount of oxygen in the air.)


Specifically (at least in the US) amine treatment using Monoethanolamine:

I think it's simply a matter of the media not being there yet. You could envision movies made specifically for experiencing through these devices that would be utterly enthralling to take in, but it won't be for another half decade at least.

Otherwise, I think Apple's focus on "spatiality" is what is key.
