| Mephisto | Does anyone on these boards know where this ASCII strand came from: จ?ฐ??ฌฃฅตผชก ต??บฐคฃ กณฅจปขฉตถฐ??พธดฑจฃฆข ชฟฎฌชณฝ?ฆฆพ?ดฑดจตนญฟปขฉตฒญจฃฆฃจฐทผ ?ขญบน?ฐฑฒตฝ?ฐผบ?ฆฃธฉ I've seen it in a vast majority of profiles, and was just curious as to who came up with it, what does it mean, and why so many choose to have it in their profile. | March 9, 2004, 5:13 AM |
| K | I believe that is an RSA public key; chances are it's different in everyone's profile you've looked at, you just didn't notice. | March 9, 2004, 5:30 AM |
| Adron | It comes from me and soul. | March 9, 2004, 10:31 AM |
| Spht | That particular one is Skywing's public key, because I recall you put it in your profile for some reason... You'd need the private key in order to make any use out of it. | March 9, 2004, 5:46 PM |
| Grok | [quote author=Spht link=board=2;threadid=5679;start=0#msg48555 date=1078854406] That particular one is Skywing's public key, because I recall you put it in your profile for some reason... You'd need the private key in order to make any use out of it. [/quote] Which is silly because only Skywing would be able to read messages intended for Mephisto, who would not be able to read them either. | March 9, 2004, 5:49 PM |
| Grok | *revives somewhat old post with new information* Apparently you can retrieve an RSA private key by listening to a computer's noise. | May 8, 2004, 6:10 PM |
