mircea_popescu: actually mike has it. this is i agree the best avenue to approach the problem. this is what's "evil", binaryatrocity : that in the pursuit of a fundamentally, inescapably false bit of fiction, you are asked to forfeit your actual life.
binaryatrocity: I'd imagine more the other way around, if you already 'followed' me on Twitter, you'd reasonably be able to assume that the other 'accounts' listed are also owned/controlled by that-person
mike_c: that I somehow know that it's not somebody else posting those twitter messages because the same public key and twitter address are listed on some keybase page?
mircea_popescu: i think it might be related to the spam discussion. "why is spam misspelled ? not because they can't hiore an editor. but because the demographic."
mircea_popescu: not the northrop ceo, i'll bet you.
mircea_popescu: gee, i dunno. the fact they exist, as opposed to squirming in a lake full of its own guts ?
ascii_field: idk, when i link article in en there, it brings in a deluge of burned bandwidth
mircea_popescu: aye. just for my own amusement, i had a subreddit created ; and seeded it with a coupla posts.
ascii_field: 'i'm on arsebook, but i have a brain!' 'good work, now arsebook can say, 'some of our users have brains!'' lubing up the chumpatronic intake hopper.
mircea_popescu: no i mean - some old cars are actually more expensive old than they evere were new.\
mircea_popescu: i dont recal lif that's very cheap or very expensive.
binaryatrocity: Yes i am currently reading them. I also have a job to do, was hoping for a succinct answer, oh well, I'll read at my leisure. Thank you.
binaryatrocity: I completely understand that argument, I just wanted some elaboration on "fundamental alignment with evil" heh
jurov: i repeat, gpg discreditation
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i knew, in abstract. but never saw alive.
binaryatrocity: Yes, yes I understand that keybase is bad because they allow the option for users to compromise their own private keys
binaryatrocity: but again i see your point, signing messages to my GIST or Twitter is still relevant without Keybase displaying it.
jurov: i see "basically the same functionality"
binaryatrocity: I didn't say that at all
binaryatrocity: i didn't say that
binaryatrocity: Sure, self-hosted is king. I follow.
binaryatrocity: I see your point, the public-facing info can be useful though, sure there might be no real tangible benefit to tying your github to your gpg key that you couldn't achieve in a different manner, but it does provide a clean interface
binaryatrocity: but handing over your private key is optional, I clearly understand why relinquishing access to your private key is a bad idea
binaryatrocity: Just looking for some reasoning behind the hate, feel free to tell me I'm an idiot.
binaryatrocity: but I left the key to my chastity belt at home, so I'm safe!? :D
binaryatrocity: I'm not trusting them with my private key, it's just a sane profile to store the public and link me to domains etc i might control?
mircea_popescu: but i guess if no children one could sacrifice first gf.
mircea_popescu: I'm going to repeat this because I know people are going to misunderstand me: the system that you want is impossible to construct in the framework of modern medicine, if for no other reason than doctors don't read-- derive no benefit from reading. The system does not exist, and you cannot create it. Psychiatry is politics; medicine is the justice system. Pharma are the opposing lawyers, and doctors are the jury. Th
mircea_popescu: "Pharma is the backbone of medicine, because, unfortuantely, medicine is about treatment, not prevention. If a doctor recommends exercise, or garlic, or even aspirin, it's a sidenote, and a quaint one. "Oh, my doctor thinks I should move to Florida for my asthma!" Meanwhile, they'll give out the amoxicillin to every crying toddler, even though they know that that is detrimental. you know why? Because it looks like
kakobrekla: i think there was a discussion back then about this, having it coupled or uncoupled
assbot: Logged on 13-10-2015 02:56:15; mircea_popescu: phf i doubt assbot actually updates them. it might also not look at expirations, i dunno how kakobrekla did it, maybe he weighs in.
kakobrekla: sure i can make you an account
binaryatrocity: so here I am :D
binaryatrocity: yes but I cannot yet voice myself, and the "requirements to be in Assbots WoT can be found <here>" link goes to the homepage
binaryatrocity: I... have a personal site, that may look like a blog. But it is lacking in any blog-like content.
binaryatrocity: I am binaryatrocity, lover of crypto, and lurker of many channels.
mircea_popescu: punkman ah i hate the pulling out stuff
assbot: Logged on 13-10-2015 03:47:10; mircea_popescu: i have never, ever, in my fucking life been in a situation where pumping dried out the woman. how the fuck does this work even ?
punkman: BingoBoingo: If there was a single cannon the idiots could take it << no no the cannon takes the idiots, unless I'm out of powder
mircea_popescu: "I have a surprising piece of advice for parents, which I hope will be taken in the spirit it is offered: your kid doesn't want to be around you that much. No one does. This isn't because you're a bad person but because you're an ordinary person. You are not such a unique, creative, intelligent or even interesting person that the kid benefits from constant exposure to you. When you have something to offer, maximize
mircea_popescu: i've seen the thing where after a bout of sustained fucking her cunt would leak of its own volition for another fucking hour, yes. but what is this sandy bitch bs.
mircea_popescu: i have never, ever, in my fucking life been in a situation where pumping dried out the woman. how the fuck does this work even ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: "I met the woman at a Broadway show, but the night's best piece of acting, I'd say, came from me, back at her East Village apartment, after we'd been having sex for about 25 minutes, with Neil Young wailing the song "Comes a Time" from the laptop on her bedside table. The dried-out condom had a full-bodied choke hold on me, but I'd already stopped twice to put on a fresh one, and I knew, as I kept earnestly pumping awa
mircea_popescu: i doubt it's actually possible for a proper dead end, in nature.
asciilifeform: in fact, at this point if i had to choose whether to spend the rest of my days in the close warm company of cockroaches, XOR with c++ - would likely pick the former..
asciilifeform: and i'm well aware that some of the subjects i work on arouse much the same reaction in yet other people.
asciilifeform: i take off my hat, to him.
assbot: Logged on 13-10-2015 02:34:57; mircea_popescu: "For the past two weeks Sandberg was anywhere nothing useful is happening, and I'm going to include Facebook in that. Some cry-baby over at Jezebel was thrilled that Sandberg was featured all week on Access Hollywood, holy Christ, she thought this was a good thing. "Feminism is back in the mainstream in a big way," she wrote, I assume in between quaaludes, "the women's movement is actually moving."
mircea_popescu: and i meant indelible not inedible. i blame the keyboard.
asciilifeform: i was referring to the cultural context of what-makes-man
mircea_popescu: you are familiar with the basics of human sexuate reproduction i expect ?
asciilifeform: i thought anything gets to be 'woman' for phree, per mircea_popescu's algo
mircea_popescu: dude i have no idea, the long dead are a 4th fucking gender.
mircea_popescu: phf i doubt assbot actually updates them. it might also not look at expirations, i dunno how kakobrekla did it, maybe he weighs in. ☟︎
phf: mircea_popescu: i don't think that's the case. there's some magic happening, because there are no provissions to do a key refresh yet my formerly expired key still works.
mircea_popescu: "no but really, it's more about partnership". i'm sure it is. and it gets tested never. "no, like, once someone gets cancer". tyvm, i prefer to create my own problems.
mircea_popescu: what can i say.
asciilifeform: but... srsly what else exciting action am i missing?! anal sex among sewer rats? should i be constructing a robotic camera to determine its quality in the pipes underneath my street ?
mircea_popescu: note that you're no more required to be a plumber than i'm required to give a shit about lisp. you get to pick your own spot where your vita brevis makes no difference anyway.
mircea_popescu: i rest.
mircea_popescu: "oh i tried to look into this whole darwinian stuff. mmmkay..."
asciilifeform: try as i might, the thing fails to clear my wetware spam filter.
asciilifeform: (who is sandberg? what is jezebel? what happens in 'access hollywood'? and, more importantly, what do i gain from trying to figure this out...?)
mircea_popescu: i don't think you're enough of a pedophile to give a shit about what teenaged women do anyway.

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-10-2015#1297438 << they are sop in usa. to this day i do not know precisely why. ☝︎

phf: i thought the matter of subkeys, "automatic" key replacements or substituions was settled by hanbot's story. i really put too much faith in it as the b-a canon seems like

mircea_popescu: http://thelastpsychiatrist.com/2010/10/catfish.html << i thought i saw a bunch of bad films. omfg i dunno where this guy shops but i've never seen films half as bad as the fucktarded youtube facebook shit he's watching.
punkman: anyway, good thing I distributed my key before the shappening ;)
punkman: dunno, I worry more about someone refreshing his keyring and ending up with extra subkeys under my main key, than a second main key appearing with same fingerprint, so I'm definitely setting my cert-digest-algo to sha512
punkman: well I'm more worried about subkey shenanigans than someone finding a collision for my fingerprint
punkman: I don't see any mention of sha1 in the rfc regarding subkey sigs etc
assbot: Logged on 12-10-2015 22:51:13; punkman: btw if you don't want the signatures on your subkeys being sha1, I think --cert-digest-algo is the option that needs changing
nubbins`: "If I was in their shoes, I'd..." ...suck just like they do
punkman: btw if you don't want the signatures on your subkeys being sha1, I think --cert-digest-algo is the option that needs changing ☟︎
mircea_popescu: iirc i have a "why you don't want to chain hashes" thing somewhere.
mircea_popescu: i do not imagine anyone seriously pipes it in.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: the basic problem is that you are decrypting $blob and, so long as the output has the expected form (and how many of us check? yes, i check. but there are folks who will pipe it straight into their irc via shellatron. yes, you know who you are
mircea_popescu: kinda why the issuie is an elephant in room : we (i) dun really wanna go into it because it's such a bitch to manage and creeping featuritis 5 ways to sunday
mircea_popescu: i guess.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i still dun get what the problem is.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i think so.
ascii_field: ok looks like i have to draw a picture ?
mircea_popescu: what, am i thick or something ?
jurov: btw, instead of sequence number i'd use hash of previous signature
ascii_field: (i.e., we ~think~ we are decrypting garbage, but who knows what it is. perhaps nsa killed kakobrekla and the next auth token is actually using the symmetric key header from your last transmission to the satellite !!)
jurov: ^ wiki material here. but i don't have acct
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-10-2015#1297290 << incidentally, this is the cue i've been waiting for to bring up an old observation of mine re: assbot and similar: ☝︎
mircea_popescu: \but i want no part of it.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it allows you to update it. the idea that others would accept your update on your own terms and for free is bizarre and i guess unwarranted. going forward i imagine moist everything will be financed through fees on key updates. such as say assbot.
ascii_field: (does anyone have the link handy where i described this scheme ?)
ascii_field: but yes, the basic scheme is one that i described before
mircea_popescu: ascii_field because if i say "no messages with index past 500 may be signed by this key" the key actually is verifdiably dead.
mircea_popescu: i suppose the elephant in the room sort of point we've been avoiding is this :
nubbins`: the point that i shouldn't have to expose my body to some random gov employee in order to exercise my charter rights was lost on many
jurov: yes. and was the problem tackled that i'm apparently expected to have one key for next 40+ years?
pete_dushenski: i think a fire's been lit
mircea_popescu: i mean blog posts
