I know they're encrypted, and have found a couple windows only tools that decrypt them, but the source is not available. I'd like to make a tool+script for Linux to automatically collect usernames and passwords for various browsers found on the system. Ideally I'd like to look at the actual implementation in the Firefox or Chrome source, but I'm not too good at looking through large codebases.

Edit: Some better Google fu'ing says Chrome uses CryptProtectData on Windows and DE keyrings or plaintext(!) on Linux. They are stored in an SQLite datab

I wrote a VGA console driver for xv6 so I could later implement a library for curses-like functionality. My only source of confusion is how this type of code is typically exposed to user space applications. The only way I would know how to do it is by adding system calls, but as there is no console_write_char type syscalls in Linux or any other kernel I know of, I figure this is not the correct way.

I've heard a lot about universities offering free online courses. Can anyone recommend a good one for os development?

Is this even possible? It seems like a law of nature that you can't even be decent at first. Any time I see a video on here from someone saying "this is my Xth time on stage, feedback?" it's always pretty lame. What's the best act you've seen from an inexperienced comic? Any examples of it being "done right"?

Do they exist? In particular, I know our sun is actually white but I'm having a hard time finding a picture that depicts this. I'd also like to know what the moon and other planets actually look like from outside our atmosphere. I can never tell which pictures are real and which are false coloring/artist depictions.
