mircea_popescu: sometimes i think the ~only social product of females in this country is the yelling out of various names, sometimes interspersed with "venga" or something.
mircea_popescu: that chick was ~so fucking hurt~ you couldn't believe.
mircea_popescu: much like the man who didn't lose the house in MMM hysteria might be proud : naggum has a snippet with y2k
mircea_popescu: i expect i spent <week total to date with them. which yes, since you ask, i am quite proud of.
mircea_popescu: not depressing me, because being forewarned permitted me to organize my life around defense.
mircea_popescu: (there's a special settings page for listing allowed tags, and i'm starting to suspect this should be standardized by now -- tho why the fuck is it <b> rather than <very-nice-and-thickly_bold> and wtf is <blockquote>, <bq> was taken ?!)
mircea_popescu: btw diana_coman can i rely on <b><em><blockquote> working in your comment section ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i'm just back from dumping a >500 word comment into diana's blog ; this thing is going critical
mircea_popescu: his assurance is worth diddly, but the fact he has to make it...
mircea_popescu: diana_coman what do you mean bildibic ?! it's bilbidic!
mircea_popescu: generally the mempool is pretty homogenous (ie, most nodes report the same tx set), but there's always basic stuff (did you include enough fee ?) and so on.
mircea_popescu: mats you can check by connecting independently to a prb node and checking if it reports it in its mempool.
mircea_popescu: (next logical step to "oh, i maintain a node" being, obv, "oh, i maintain a !!sendtx".)
mircea_popescu: trinque o, nice! can it be wrapped into deedbot ? !!sendtx <raw> or <url> ?
mircea_popescu: since we're on mp-wp woes : an hero to make mp-wp footnote system NEST would be appreciated. currently works only 1 level deep, maybe once each year or two gotta do lvl2 footnotes by hand.
mircea_popescu: or you know, AdvancedMaterials@ashland.com. i'm sure they'll send you some.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform Ashland Advanced Materials, Building N and Room 1102, 1005 US Hwy No 202/206, Bridgewater NJ 08807.
mircea_popescu: that's what they were thinking. all of them, from "cia" down to the last redditard.
mircea_popescu: The woman even challenges him about it, in no uncertain terms : "you suck", she says, "you've got nothing", she says, "and you can't even admit it".
mircea_popescu: Ed Helms, Steve Carell, rando dork, they're all the same guy. lalala can't hear you.
mircea_popescu: THATS WHAT THE NINE STEPS ARE ALL ABOUT -- REFUSE TO LOSE!!!
mircea_popescu: basically, it's supposed to be my problem that their shit's broken. because they live in the best possible world and everything else is rape or w/e, "not understanding the concept of bdsm"
mircea_popescu: recall how all those old browsers wrote the text out of bounds whenever there was more text than bounds ?
mircea_popescu: if i get something like "only odd bits of key can be leaked" we've won.
mircea_popescu: rather, where leakage of key bits can be ~geographically bound~.
mircea_popescu: give him some messages you don't care about, is the idea.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, the question of what % of the "entropy" leaked was entropic. obviously from chtulhu's pov your message's just as delicious entropy as any other.
mircea_popescu: kinda states differently ye olde "ciphers are not worth having when encryption's available". IF you have rng to piss out, might as well find some primes.
mircea_popescu: this is the fundamental cost here : EITHER have asymmetric keys, or ELSE leak entropy.
mircea_popescu: i think basically the point here is to summarize what was found. and that's specifically that a) there's no meaningful discussion of "better" or "worse" ciphers worth having when by "cipher" one understands "mixing in 0 entropy".
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah, kinda in the vein of my algo hash thing. but honestly i'd prefer an algebraic form.
mircea_popescu: in other news, there's apparently such a place as humble, texas.
mircea_popescu: afaik it's space before so " ((" rather than simply "(("
mircea_popescu: schedule will then not merely "mix" the P bits but also explain how to separate the R bits out of E.
mircea_popescu: the more i think about this whole serpent business, the more it becomes evident that the ~only~ way to have a cipher (not encryption, ie, asym keys, but enciphering, ie, simmetric keys) stronger than serpent is to ~mix rng bits~. ie, the weakest cipher is the one where len(E) = len(P), and they're all equally week, and 1 serpent worth. to go stronger, you must have something that has len(E) = a len(P) + b sorta thing. the key
mircea_popescu: also ((123 kekekek.)) isn't translated to footnotes. hey hanbot did you ever include footnote plugin or did that get dropped somewhere in the interim ?
mircea_popescu: the cause is that it apparently doesn't auto-save drafts (resolved if one manually saves a draft). imo autosave nice feature to have.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo adding to the list of weird : preview button doesn't work either for some reason (expected behaviour : puts up a "as it'd look if published" article view ; actual behaviour : redirects one to an empty add article page).
mircea_popescu: having a perma-test one isn't even the end of the world, let people try before.
mircea_popescu: neways, will have to get to the bottom of this, because "visual" mode is both stupid and orgmode-like ; and really can't blog w/o pics, take nicoleci 's latest task, she gotta put in the orig pics or else what are we doing here.
mircea_popescu: i suspect breakage somewhere along the way, because iirc hanbot 's mp-wp that i testrun at some point had these.
mircea_popescu: which is not even sane (seeing how if uncommented the server croaks) and anyway dysfunctional (really, mp-wp installation is vulnerable to cookie hijacking, you're supposed to lock down wp-admin by ip, especially if you're going to be clicking on random links).
mircea_popescu: now, traditionally 2 is caused by over-aggressive .htaccess settings in wp-admin and wp-admin/js however your .htaccess consists of "#Order deny,allow\n#Deny from all\n#Allow from all"
mircea_popescu: this completely breaks it, at least as far as my workflow is concerned, because i never use anything besides 1 and you can't very practically get images in without 2. they're both core functionality of why i even bother with mp-wp in the first place, rather than some random other solution.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo so here's the problem : in
http://88isp.net/wp-admin/post-new.php as extant in current install, there's two major items missing : 1) the html view (tab is there, but apparently unlinked to anything) and 2) the upload/insert (pops up some version of media-upload.php with article references etc on sane installs).
mircea_popescu: well BingoBoingo can i then have the item installed, since that's what i'm trying to test.
mircea_popescu: am i missing something here ? either it is or it isn't -- {automated ; identical}
mircea_popescu: (seeing how there's ~nothing else for them to do on a shared acct anyway ; at any rate it's been why i funelled them)
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo somehow i had this idea you just keep around a standard version that's auto-rolled into shared hosting users
mircea_popescu: jesus i mashed f7 more than any other key before or hence
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo wait, this ~doesn't~ come with preinstalled mp-wp ?
mircea_popescu: nicoleci "Thereare" << your leads miss a space on all paragraph.
mircea_popescu: and while gw-basic sucked balls, qbasic was a pleasure, and to this day a standard too far -- for eg, emacs, or for whatever.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i took it as a "freedom" : back in soviety, had to have basic, here can install w/e one wants.
mircea_popescu: aaanyways, not really worth doing one of these other than as a distributed store, and so on.
mircea_popescu: no, i mean apple. they're still out there trying to sell three inch "cables" for 19.95 aren't they ?
mircea_popescu: they found the standardkeepers -- those morons who still haven't figured out cabling.
