yep, my point exactly

I don't see why use an assymetric algorithm to encrypt files which is slower and needs to manage public/secret files instead of just using a symmetric algorithm like AES, and store the passphrase in the brain

you lost that node, you'll need to run netscan and try again with another one

Re:Show HN: H4ck 1t, multiplayer hacking game on Thursday December 01, 2016 @10:38AM (#13080037)
I want the game to have a "this is not a game" feel in the sense that it has no points, bonuses, levels, so that the player, even thou it's obvious that it is a game, feels like a real hacker.

But you have a point, and I will add some info to the login page. Thanks for the feedback!
