This is for all the 2D Retro freaks out there, and I even hate old games It's really wonderful, it looks great, nice gameplay with some weird metal arm that enables you to swing across platforms and the whole design is just hilarious, especially the stupid dialogs You can also play it in coop mode http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/...onic%20commando Some screenshots: http://kotaku.com/346646/gorgeous-bionic-c...ed-screen-shots It's only 15$ on D2D, about 250MB in size I just got it from a torrentsite but I plan on buying it, considering it's that cheap it really is wor…

New mathematical attack works against a broad range cryptographic functions. Unless you're a dyed in the wool cryptographic geek you probably didn't know that there was a Crypto conference, or even a chain of worldwide crypto conferences that take place each year. Fortunately, for the most of us that aren't crypto geeks there are a handful of very highly skilled people who are; they can take the highly theoretical and complex mathematical proofs and arguments that make up most of modern cryptographic and cryptanalytic research and put it into plain language. Probably the best known is Bruce Schneier, who is a dedicated crypto geek famous for his general Information Securi…
