Password Strength

What is a secure password? Sure, “John” is completely trivial, especially if your account name is John Doe, but is “12John93” much better? How long would it take for someone to hack your email account and get access to the confidential data that could ...Read More

Liberator

I was just wondering about something one of these days… How many people would kill themselves and how many companies would go bankrupt if computers would simply stop working for a full week? I know for sure that thousands of WoW players would surely ...Read More
