Ciphire, A Transparent, Easy PGP Alternative 345
mixter writes "Hi. I'd like to point your attention to Ciphire, a fully free and soon-to-be-audited-OpenSource 'Global PKI' project I've been working on for the last three years. As the first three or four thousand geeks started using Ciphire and seem happy, with some tech articles written, I guess the /. community might find this interesting, too. Ciphire hopes to have solved the problems that prevented PGP from a broader deployment, with even higher security standards - as already confirmed by crypto experts Housley & Ferguson. More useful information, e.g. in Wired or in the Nerd^H^H^H^Hexperts FAQ."

Seriously - I don't like how my first encounter with your site is when it tries to set a passel of cookies. Get on that, would ya?

On the contrary, you can and should take a break while your box compiles itself. That means, every time there's a new update of bashcomplete or KDE or something, BAM! hygene++. Fun++. Lifer0x0rs++. Learn_about_cryptography++. Cavities--.
Gentoo is about more than having optimized code. It's about a self-learning genius child in the making, who knows how to download her own dependencies. Linux is about more than being an evil super-villain, it's about freeing your mind. Unix is about more than hating Windows, it's about saving the world, and being cool. (Cool BSD chicks have always known this.)
So, my friend, pipe that emerge output to your printer, and hire a friend (or "emerge festival") to read it to you while you sleep, like the rest of us do. While it is tough, you will learn that you do not have to watch every line of output from emerge as it appears. Like all caring parents have to learn, you cannot spend every waking second of your life with your prodigous child. Your box might overoptimize once in a while, need to be told to recompile with a new use flag, or require a little etc-update from time to time, but you will discover that your sweet little gentoo is more resilient than it seems, and life goes on.
So, in light of our OCD friend's troll, I propose a toast, to showers, to prodigous super-children, to red leather, and to cavity free smiles!
