I've oft wonderes about this myself.

 

but considering we are protecting gliches in other peoples software it's prob not happening.

Doubt we could bribe Microsoft to put in a vulnerability in their OS just to sell a little more Anti virus.

 

there enough bad code out there already without us having to get more.

Nothing like a bad code you already have a fix for though

Bit like Kaspersky and their ransomware decryption tools...I don't know much about 256 encryption but I thought the whole point was that it would take a supercomputer millions of years to decrypt

On the topic of IT, watching YouTube today it's incredible the chipsets and systems people are replicating within minecraft...put AI into that and hello Skynet

It's substancially longer than that.

however as the hackers use the same key for all ransomware of that version.

think of it as a car key, there a near unlimited amount of key shapes that you could use, however if Nissan were to use the exact same barrel on every car...makes it easy you get any nissan key and your sorted

 

Kaspersky pay for a single fix then use that key to decrypt all the other people.

 

EDIT:

as for AES 256 bit encryption, for AES128

even with a supercomputer, it would take 1 billion billion years to crack the 128-bit AES key using brute force attack. This is more than the age of the universe (13.75 billion years).

So AES256 is pretty secure. and if you worried about that move on to ECC ciphers.

well at least it comes with the 5.2L V12....... oh wait.

 

yeah, because everyone wants to pay $75,000 for an ancient VW chassis with a subaru motor and 4 forward gears.

So the big question... would you be ok driving it around? I'd feel like I was doing it wrong somehow, like the people who see it deserve better.
I'm not a replica fan. I feel like it would be a real dampener if you found out it wasn't a real lambo.

I'm mixed when it comes to replicas.

If your building a cobra/GT40 kit car and sticking with a big ass V8 and some slightly modern suspension and brakes I'm a fan, 

A lambo with a VW frame and a 2l subie motor hell no. your Ferrari 355 thts actually a MR2 (I'm looking at you here top gear) go and EAD.

 

the big thing is however if you claim your replica is a real one..best expect to be stabbed.

Factorio hey...someone made a game out of Patrick's job?

Sandstorm is impressive until you see in game video call

I'm 50/50 on these things. They are very impressive in the skill and manpower required to literally build a virtual computer. But what it boils down to is that the above is effectively a crappy version of Skype within an operating system called minecraft. Not to detract from them, but all they are doing is a virtual version of what people did decades and decades ago in the physical world...who were / still are the real geniuses and many manpowers. I guess the amazement comes from repurposing software and hardware for alternative uses, not unlike that guy who loaded Doom up on his Apple MacBook bar.

Respect for replicas that are well done or allow average joe to enjoy the look and feel of one

Mind boggling is when the replica cost more to build than the real thing; when DIY becomes near artwork or an exercise to see if it can be done. Always admired this 996 replica, which started life as a Calibra of all things

front view that works, but as soon as you get a side view it's all wrong, soo long in the rear quarter that messes everything up.

 

in my books, (which I know count for nothing) a replica cannot be built on an existing car. they just never work.

 

thus the Cobra/GT40/Caterham's all work as they a purpose built chassis.

Also that 996... wow. That's a lot of effort.
I actually like the stories where a bloke (it's alway a bloke) builds his dream car replica from scratch. Especially the one where he had to demolish his basement wall to get it out. :)

So according to the NBN website it's coming to my address Jan-March this year.. wonder how I go about upgrading my current cable plan that i'm locked in for another 20 months, I guess I can change plan but would have to stick with Telstra.

I'm sure it'd be fine as long as you sign another 24 month contract.

I got Telstra 3.0 cable, don't see a point in moving to nbn

Potentially found next car to buy (legit). Sell Gloria once I've achieved everything and enjoyed it, then find an F30 Leopard in Japan and go old school VIP/Yuppie build.

Apologies, sleep deprivation (thank you new child) is killing me. 

I read back through what i had written... I should not be allowed on the internet.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
