asciilifeform: veen: linux, by default. because it was dropped as a baby.
asciilifeform: (there is a red alarm lamp on the pcb to alert in case of analogue rng failure, but it is theoretically possible for the circuit to break outside of FUCKGOATS proper)
asciilifeform: you also MUST have some means for not attempting to cryptoate if the device for whatever reason is not functioning.
asciilifeform: the requisite necks for it to unexist, have not yet been broken.
asciilifeform: veen: have patience, i have only 2 hands
asciilifeform: i would say 'replace /dev/random in gpg source with /dev/fg and build' but the rng in gpg is monumentally retarded and i disrecommend its use entirely
asciilifeform: and there is no reason for it to happen in the kernel .
asciilifeform: my point is, sane proggy oughta know how to eat multiple /dev/ttyUSB0, /dev/ttyUSB1, ... however many, correctly.
asciilifeform: it plugs in through a ttl to usbuart plug
asciilifeform: (mine, and any other malleus-enabled nodez, will ban.)
asciilifeform: lulzily we're banning ~100% of prb nao because they ~insist~ on shitting out 'alert' packets
asciilifeform: ( what this looks like : you get some, e.g., 'WARNING: disconnecting wire 127.0.0.1:9000 ! (will retry...)' in the debug log. until the wire peer is happy to eat again . )
asciilifeform: ok this is delicious, but i must briefly revisit upstack: mircea_popescu , mod6 , or anyone else in my l1 who wants to ssh+wire-peer with dulap: please gpggram a ssh rsa pubkey to me.
asciilifeform: pretty lulzy that they had the 'how we FOUND our BUG!' document hot an'ready to broadcast.
asciilifeform: 'The underlying bug occurs because of a pointer error.'
asciilifeform: because this unrapes, apparently, someone.
asciilifeform: usg.google, unsurprisingly, has top priority of... purging 13333337 s33333kr1tz from its public caches.
asciilifeform: 'I don't know if this issue was noticed and exploited, but I'm sure other crawlers have collected data and that users have saved or cached content and don't realize what they have, etc. We've discovered (and purged) cached pages that contain private messages from well-known services, PII from major sites that use cloudflare, and even plaintext API requests from a popular password manager that were sent over https (!!).'
asciilifeform: ( and yes, archive.is uses shitflare , continuously )
asciilifeform: h that some colleagues around the Project Zero office even got intrigued. It became clear after a while we were looking at chunks of uninitialized memory interspersed with valid data. ...'
asciilifeform: 'On February 17th 2017, I was working on a corpus distillation project, when I encountered some data that didn't match what I had been expecting. It's not unusual to find garbage, corrupt data, mislabeled data or just crazy non-conforming data...but the format of the data this time was confusing enough that I spent some time trying to debug what had gone wrong, wondering if it was a bug in my code. In fact, the data was bizarre enoug
asciilifeform: in other lulz, mircea_popescu , https://archive.is/HIr9r << i think we have the answer to 'why did asciilifeform get 64kb of crapolade in the guise of ZIPs from archive.is in july of '16 ? '
asciilifeform: 'Update February 23rd, 1:45PM ET: Twitter user Ramsey Nasser points out that the algorithm has consistently high toxicity for Arabic, no matter the content.'
asciilifeform: 'The software works by determining the “toxicity” of online comments, a scale that has been established by mining millions of comments from the web and then presenting them to panels of 10 people (humans!) at a clip to get their feedback. '
asciilifeform: elsewhere, in re http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-22#1616821 >> http://archive.is/QoAki << 'Google’s Jigsaw unit, as part of a larger effort to battle online trolling, said earlier today that it was releasing a new tool called Perspective, software that uses machine learning to detect harassment and abuse online.'☝︎
asciilifeform: 'YouTube cuts popular live stream of giraffe about to give birth for 'nudity and sexual content''
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: yes but this does 0 for gpg fp.
asciilifeform: became a serious itch for asciilifeform when he watched a sha1 collision get crapped out on demand, for minor project, at butugychag 1+ yr ago
asciilifeform: the real headache is that it is entirely possible to produce a 'i eat toe fungus!', signed, sincerely, 0x8A736F0E2FB7B452. a year ago i estimated that this costs 100k usd. today -- probably a few thou.
asciilifeform: not without a broad daylight fleanode break.
