"I just want to note, that passwords are 100% safe on our server. They are stored in secured MySQL (sql injection proof) database and hashed twice with SHA-512 and 30 character random salt. This means no one can see them."
Using SHA512 is actually bad. SHA512 is good if you re-hash it 5,000 times. Just a year ago you could re-hash 1,000 times instead but computers are getting faster every day.

SHA512 is meant to be fast. The faster it is for you to hash, the faster it will be for somebody to brute force. I suggest using Blowfish for all encryption. Use 12 rounds and it will be pretty secure but chances of somebody being able to brute-force your DB is VERY slim in a reasonable amount of time.

Arch's package manager is actually Pacman. I am guessing he named it after Arch's package manager.

Didn't I just say how it was okay to hash 1,000 times a year ago and now you should hash 5,000 times? :P/>

According to the wiki:

Currently, the best public attacks break 46 of the 64 rounds of SHA-256 or 46 of the 80 rounds of SHA-512

So, 1000 rounds is way too overkill…

:lol:/> I hate to be a dick here, hahaha, but you spelled "where" incorrectly. Also, it's "it's".

Anyway, on topic: a little more information would be nice. I even checked out your site, but I still can't tell why this is better than using Pastebin. Does it have built-in dependency resolution? Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of a CC package manager, but the current Pastebin system works great. Didn't the community abandon cc-get in favor of it?

No the correct grammar for what I said is "its" not "it's" since it's means it is. Which wouldn't sound right. Oh and its grammar you mean, not spelling :P/>.

I really shouldn't be getting into this, but… "it's" is the contraction of "it" and "is", literally meaning "it is". "Its", on the other hand, is the possessive form of "it", in much the same way that "his" is the possessive form of "him" or "he". Your sentence would have been grammatically incorrect no matter which you used, but "its" was less correct than "it's" would have been. Either way, my corrections were technically related to both grammar and spelling, since your misspelling of "it's" was related to the grammatical incorrectness of your use of the word.

It wouldn't make sense having
( I don't really have OCD, *it is* just spelling REALLY bothers me).

I even repeated that to myself like 50 times before posting…. it just doesn't sound right.
Still the spelling error I found on his site was one that REALLY F*CKING BOTHERS ME, people saying "LUA" when its really Lua, LUA means (In Microsoft terms) Low-privileged User Account , and in internet slang Love You Always, so when people say "I code in LUA" it makes me think, "You code in Love You Always and or Low-privileged User Account? Are you retarded?" Now don't get me wrong, and take this as me saying this program looks like it will suck, since to me it looks like it will be really awesome.

I believe Lyqyd also has a package manager called PacMan…
