mircea_popescu: asciilifeform he's not JUST into lesswrong, wikipedia, bla bla. he's also convinced "darknet" is relevant in general, that
a bunch of inept shitheads were "
a cryptoanarchist revolution" and, wonder of wonders, that the pill poppers had some sort of impact in bitcoin whatsoever.
mircea_popescu: i almost prefer the vapid floozies. to hear these schmucks " I feel like this post deserves
a montage or
a slideshow with music. So much reminiscing and joyful sadness. ", makes my skin fucking crawl.
mircea_popescu: i guess
a bunch of weirdos have the usg to thank for their wholly delusional belief that child porn is "big business", somehiw.
mircea_popescu: "Pedofunding
A crowdfunding site for child pornography, “Pedofunding”, was launched in November 2014. It seemed like possibly the birth of
a new black-market business model so I set up
a logged-out scrape to archive its beginnings (sans any images), collecting 20 scrapes from 2014-11-13 to 2014-12-02, after which it shut down, apparently having found no traction."
mircea_popescu: right. so the new standard for
a rsa key is (e, N, userstring), and everyone's expected to produce THAT.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: so is the logical thing here to just proclaim "rsa key, as per the republic, is
a e, N, string tripled" and then, jurov can dump to THAT format and you'll import from that format later ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform more's the point : is phuctor happy with
a e, n, userstring csv ?
ben_vulpes: there's
a deedbot ripoff doing the rounds as well
mircea_popescu: i suppose this really ends up in
a discussion of "we need
a new format for rsa keys", doesn't it.
mircea_popescu: that
a liar claims something doth not mean it is also worth investigating.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-04 22:49 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform imo this is absolute proof he copied the phuctor results without understanding them. otherwise it is plain impossible he has
a list of "vulnerable moduli" that is more extensive than phuctor's all the while having
a list of factors that includes ~none of the factors phuctor found
mircea_popescu: cat keybase.io | while read derp; do curl "
https://keybase.io/$derp" | grep ' class="username "' | sed 's/" class/\n/' | grep "
a href" | sed 's% <
a href="/%%' | sort -u > keybase2.io ; done

☟︎ mircea_popescu: i guess. i come from
a world where women under 30 aren't allowed at uni anwyay.
phf: 48g and
a 206m "padding file"
mircea_popescu: no he didn't. he didn't get as far as removing the dsa/ecc keys out of the sks dump to get
a proper count of rsa moduli
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there was
a form that did nothing. how is this "Available"
punkman: 2tb will do in
a pinch, does it have to run in polite mode on shared server?
mircea_popescu: phf anyway, at the very least that thing needs long term seeders ; which is
a mitzvah.
mircea_popescu: send men to where they have leverage - such as by exposing
a whole swathe of usg "law enforcement" derps.
phf: that's
a whole Project
mircea_popescu:
a) it should be downloaded anyway ; b) contains pgp keys.
phf: i has
a working keybase crawler..
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform understand, the most important quality of doing things openly is that every derp everywhere is now able to try and stuff it into his peculiar headbox. there's
a lot of "number worshipping" undercurrent i detect in there, sort-of the educated version of "lottery playing systems", which is more repugnant to the civilised man than the political slant. even so.
mircea_popescu: " Could it be that all of the broken e keys were generated by OpenSSL from year 2000 or earlier? " << it could not be.
a) none of the keys come from openssl ; b) most keys are post 2000.
mircea_popescu: all he's saying is that using THE FOUND FACTORS as some sort of lithmus for the key production process is
a dead end. which it is.
mircea_popescu: in point of fact composites are broken into not-necessarily-prime chunks, which is more of
a function of the random state of the breaker than anything, and the actual bitfield offers no information re the process that made the key
mircea_popescu: incidentally-2 : you absolutely should introduce
a (faux) directory structure of the type /ABCD/ABCD/ABCD/ABCD/ABCD/ABCD/ABCD/ABCD where each superior "directory" lists the subs it contains, and the last level lists actual keys. google will utterly lap this up. and it's useful in the general, passive sks.
mircea_popescu: am i the only one to have ever asked for "jiztory" in
a terminal ?
mircea_popescu: punkman turns out i don't have such
a wonder ;/ you can have 2tb right now, though. should be ok, nevertheless, i think, seeing how it's not
a single file/item, but
a collection.
phf: oh remember how we were going to have
a golang gossip
mircea_popescu: totally puts
a stake through the heart of the "fair price" nonsense also. what is this "fair price", to hire the man that knows the future ? the causes of the past ?
mircea_popescu: in
a sea of "who could have predicted", the man who does predict is but amused.
punkman: hmm maybe, got
a server with space for it?
punkman: there are
a couple companies that do comprehensive crawls of pastebins, could be worth looking into
mircea_popescu: and finally, you do have
a knob to fill in factors into 8 ball manually ? if not add it in
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, just get the 8ball expander to work constantly, fill
a core or something.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the thing's been
a blessing for hackers for many years now.
mircea_popescu: there already exists
a "various ssh formats" conversion ; need to bolt on base16/10 number and pgp format.
mircea_popescu: with the first half, yeah. we also need
a general purpose multiconverter.
mircea_popescu: IF we ever want his political opinions on things, which is
a very remote distant and unlikely if, WELL ASK FOR IT!
mircea_popescu: you can do whatever the fuck you want, including help yourself to
a double serving of his wife
mircea_popescu: there is
a difference between YOU DOING and HE DEMANDING.
mircea_popescu: really, he's going to trade his "giving
a shit" for me doing more work on top of the work i did that he can't do in the first place ? in what fucking world!
mircea_popescu: (number one issue for the noob slaves, too, "it wasn't explained". bitch, i'm going to beat you into
a pulp, what explain. figure it the fuck out, it's your ass.)
mircea_popescu: think about it in these terms : 1. i can sail, and actually used to be / could be very good at it (right body type) ; 2. i could afford
a yacht, what. 3. i don't either. ???
mircea_popescu: actually fuck that. you ever been on
a yacht ? by been i mean > 6 hours.
phf: sometimes i still see these santa barbara americans though, old men with "silver hair" driving
a Mercedes, or mostly on the metro here. they always look so lost and small, like they walked from the screen, "the last American hero" style. except instead of like punching the car window and discovering that it hurts, their credit card is denied or something, and they are like "what is that???"
mircea_popescu: phf i'm like the emperor-god xenomorph from the future, i go "what was that bullshit tv series from the early 90s with all the boats" and wihin minutes
a woman pops the name. unfuckingbelivable.
