Personally, I like the taste of a fine whisky, or even a good stout or porter.

Why would you voluntarily drink alcohol?

--- End quote ---

Because alcoholic drinks taste good to many people, and alcohol's effects can be pleasurable, not to mention facilitate social situations for many people.

Neither drinking for the taste nor drinking for alcohol's effect has much to do with having a hangover (as in, a hangover is not REQUIRED for either). And getting a hangover definitely isn't the *goal* for any drinkers, and if they can avoid it, that's great. I'm not even sure what you're implying with your question.

That's like responding to "I had a snowball fight and I caught a cold, I wish it wouldn't happen" with "Why would you voluntarily have a snowball fight?". Well, certainly not IN ORDER to catch a cold.

Millie probably went for the most basic type of encryption that any script kiddie could crack in less than a minute.

ROT13.

Is it cold in here?:
ROT13 has vulnerabilities with the usual implementation as a single round so I recommend using a full 16 rounds.

Mr_Rose:
Conveniently, the algorithm to do that can be simplified such that you can get the same result in only two steps, saving processing time.
Though, recently, someone at the Chaos Communications conference announced that they had developed a way to achieve the same result by exploiting a file system level flaw and a simple change of the file attributes.
They said it “was even easier than breaking the private key on the PS3 once we knew what we were seeing.” :psyduck:
