  I’m surprised this asshole has time to veto good bills between his sessions of destroying destitute people’s possessions.

  Quantum crypto is different than cracking encryption with a quantum computer. The point of quantum crypto is that the key exchange is perfectly secret. If it is observed, the people exchanging keys will know due to entanglement bs that I’m too dumb to understand.

  But you basically get the perfect uncrackable encryption of one time pads without having to manage one time pads.

  I’m guessing for quantum cryptography. It would allow you to have perfect crypto (assuming the non quantum hardware isn’t hacked (a big if)).

  That was a weird review. Like, it starts off as a review. Then they say they haven’t played it much and gestures to the steam review rating. Strange.

  Back in high school I’d play Tribes (shifter mod) fucking constantly. I was one of the best players around, but looking back it was probably because everyone was on dial up and I had a cable modem. It was so fucking fun though. Great game. I would never be able to play it now that I’m an old.
