We've got awesome ugrads. 22:14 < BrandonW> The only key left is the date stamp key and that's common to every model, so it's in the 68k community's best interests to factor it. 22:14 < BrandonW> So I don't think there's any way we can screw this up now. 22:14 < dga> brandon: mirrored and sent to a couple of friends for safekeeping. 22:14 < Merthsoft> Well, we keep our own pretty well in the specific place we go, by CM kills us regionally 22:14 < BrandonW> I'll update Wikileaks once we get the last key. 22:15 < dga> any guesses on how long sieving for that is expected to take? A few of my students need machines to beat up, and the most likely ones to use are the ones cracking keys.. 22:15 < Merthsoft> How's the CE grad program there? 22:15 < dga> I can delay by a day or two if that's all it is. :) 22:16 <+Dantes> Hey Auron 22:16 < BrandonW> I can't get a straight answer from anyone yet; we MIGHT already be done sieving that key, which means it would now be in the hands of somebody's quad core PC. I really hope that's the case, but considering we were all factoring the date stamp key before the server went down and we don't really know what state it's in now, I'd say wait a couple of days. 22:16 <+Dantes> Doing well with your game programming, I've read? :) 22:16 < dga> It's ECE here, technically. It's very good, though as with any of the top-four schools, there are some areas where we're stronger and weaker. I don't actually know the sub-areas within ECE as well as I do for CS. 22:17 < dga> (eg, we've got a *huge* computer security group in ECE that's absolutely top-tier; I assume we also have some weaker spots.) 22:17 < dga> I'll keep the computers sieving until Monday then, Brandon. 22:17 < Merthsoft> Ah, ok. I have a friend who said the robotics is pretty good, which is what I did my summer research (and will be continuing with this year) in 22:18 < BrandonW> Thanks for contributing all your computers...it probably wouldn't have been so fast if not for you. 22:18 < BrandonW> Well, it definitely wouldn't have been as fast, that's a given. 22:18 <@Andy_J> Merthsoft: because kernel memory is sacred 22:18 < BrandonW> But it was a huge help. 22:19 <@Andy_J> and can't be swapped out 22:19 < Merthsoft> shshsh Andy_J you're gonna get my in trouble 22:19 <@Andy_J> (most of the time) 22:19 < dga> Robotics here is one of the strong points.
