assbot: Logged on 17-07-2015 04:03:27; trinque: or he could be *that* principled and I could be a crass moron
jurov: i mean, moore's not what they expect anymore, they may end up needing gigawatts of ower and cooling,
punkman: I believe someone has actually sold the private key of the above address
shinohai: tbh i thought maybe 50 people used multibit
shinohai: oh multibit. I never liked it so never used it
punkman: it's currently unspendable, though I think you might be able to spend it on 0.5.3
punkman: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-07-2015#1204244 << also happened to blockchain.info, and I remember posting a paper about similar attacks against HD wallets ☝︎
trinque: how bout I start deedbotting IPs and names and let that be that
trinque: wtf, namecheap just blasted out an e-mail demanding rudely that I verify my email address due to ICANN something something ☟︎
trinque: mats: at least in the case of the west antarctic glacier I read something interesting regarding the involvement of geologic activity
trinque: let me see if I can restate: the mechanism of modern american narcissism for example is precisely that the type of person walks around thinking they can simply declare things to be so, because they feel they ought to be
trinque: I have been musing lately on the relationship between sovereignty, language/meaning creation, and delusional behavior such as this.
trinque: but I'd not archive it without permission ☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: (we all know why. and i'm gonna guess that he doesn't give a damn, 'nobody needed the library of alexandria for anything') ☟︎
asciilifeform: while we're on the subject, am i the only one somewhat dismayed that the one site that probably has no public backup is mircea_popescu's www ?
trinque: I am a student farther back on my lisp quest
trinque: asciilifeform: mind if I eat loper-os too?
trinque: decimation: I am taking that attitude towards every piece of valuable information I find.
trinque: interface is a little goofy, but I got the files I wanted
trinque: I did
MoltenBosnia: I have otc rating just gotta get laptop with keys running.
decimation: asciilifeform: also I note his comments seem to have more weight than the text
decimation: I know he wrote about the splc and the right wing route to power
asciilifeform: i can't seem to search for anything at all without turning up half a dozen b-a link turdz
trinque: orc on orc I think it was
asciilifeform: for all i know, the above is the actual fact.
mats: particularly dumb criminals, i suppose
asciilifeform: i'd be quite surprised if anyone has ever hit a boat-sized target with these from even 1km
trinque: put plainly, watching phuctor phuck, I'd thought that there surely must be some way of doing the same thing on badly generated bitcoin addresses
asciilifeform: but the point i was trying to make is that your cpu is not transmitting to the proverbial black helicopter 24/7
trinque: right, say there's a decent way to do factoring. I think I pulled that one from your blog
asciilifeform: (and chances are, i will, l0l) ☟︎
asciilifeform: picture if i am sitting here and i see it
trinque: but I take your point; there wouldn't have been reason to target someone like him until doing so wouldn't have mattered
trinque: I was not around for the early days
trinque: I suppose he could be the windows derp and still know to at least use a separate airgapped box for the keys
trinque: I read all day about how intel's backdoored, mobo's backdoored, so on so on
asciilifeform: trinque: i won't comment on meta-nsa, but classic nsa works on statistical aggregates rather than individuals - at least when dealing with mass collections rather than targeted shots
trinque: what I'm saying is that runs contrary to the derp theory
trinque: fuck knows I don't know how to approach it if he did
trinque: yeah, I have to say I find him having been found as the most likely
trinque: or he could be *that* principled and I could be a crass moron ☟︎
asciilifeform: at the risk of beating the record of mircea_popescu's pessimism on the subject of 'future bitcoin': i currently suspect that protocol change might be the proverbial 'stone so heavy, god cannot lift'
mircea_popescu: anyway, i'm off. cheerios.
asciilifeform: (i.e. there are probably not 5bn 'turkey-buying-capable' dollars on planet)
asciilifeform: 'does not suck' today, i dare say, is a higher bar than in '09, when there was no bitcoin
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform all i can say is i'd consider it fully.
mircea_popescu: decimation i mean the original, end of 2014/2015 dispute, about "herp derp we'll raise the block limit"
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: unless i misunderstood, your implication in earlier thread was that satoshi (in the person of his key) could pop up, propose some arbitrary strange, and have such carry weight on account of him being the famous satoshi
asciilifeform: (for worse? sure! where i live, what comes out of the filling station is 10% ethanol ~by law~)
decimation: heh I've seen pictures
mats: i forgot how efficient it is
trinque: I've seen a great many Solar City fliers around, speaking of Musk.
mats: they are massively overvalued right now and i would not be interested in taking the other side
mats: hey, didn't say i'd bet against you
TomServo: November, if I recall correctly.
TomServo: The docs don't exactly reflect it, but I can confirm the snapshot of 5.8 does see and boot from usb.
assbot: Logged on 09-07-2015 21:57:04; decimation: https://www.mail-archive.com/misc@openbsd.org/msg138968.html < ah well then I am pleased to annouce that apparently openbsd will be supporting oceton usb in the very near future
TomServo: In other news, I noticed this blurb on the OpenBSD octeon page today: "In June 2015 USB support was added which finally allowed installing to local disk on machines lacking a CF slot."
BingoBoingo: decimation: I was more thinking about how such vehicles create space for themselves.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> i've passed up opportunities to own a truck quite like that, on account of having nowhere to keep it << Truck like that keeps itself
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> entirely plausible that mr spamphone likes buying surplus. << I remember in the old Tom Clancy novels his various supposed NatSec agencies being funded by "spamzors" and their financial equivalent.
asciilifeform: i've passed up opportunities to own a truck quite like that, on account of having nowhere to keep it
decimation: I donno if you can link streetview
asciilifeform: i only see ordinary cars
decimation: unfortunately the 12 meter dish is pointing up (probably 'safed') so I can't determine its bearing
asciilifeform: it is not difficult, where i come from it was done with paper and pen
asciilifeform: , I can't reveal the details to support this statement but, knowing my honestly and character, you'll have to take me at my word. '
asciilifeform: 'I know there has been concerning news about the NSA overstepping its bounds regarding data collection and the US government's lack of action. I have worked closely with many government officials. What may appear as an erosion of our constitutional rights, are actually programs critically important to the safety of our country. Without the NSA data gathering programs, there would have already been a "Cyber 9/11". Unfortunately
mats: "I believe that we are in a post-hacker world ... We should strive to be professionals, making the Internet a safer place rather than exposing vulnerabilities that can be leveraged by criminals and terrorists. This is why I'm going to encourage you to attend professional security conferences like Black Hat, RSA, SANS and others"
decimation: lemme see if I can figure out which satellite the minor dishes are pointed at
asciilifeform: http://cpsociety.org/thomas-ndomb << lulzy. the one other public mention of 'telco 214' i've found so far.
asciilifeform: (why not parcel it through sp4mz0rpr0x13z!!111 like everybody else? damned if i know)
asciilifeform: decimation: 'telco 214' is the owner of a single ip which houses, as far as i can tell, at least 2% of current net hash. ☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: (or so i was told)
asciilifeform: just lulzy to see it when i randomly chanced to look at the latest crud scrolling by.
Adlai: mats: i'm not sure you're reading that quite right
popmechanic: I do, yes.
mats: popmechanic: piling on a bit here, but i suggest running it through Phuctor, a service that attempts to factor keys with weak moduli -- http://nosuchlabs.com
danielpbarron: it is possible to make your own key offline through keybase but I just don't see the point
popmechanic: Correct, I believe the key is generated client side.
popmechanic: Apparently they just offer email addresses? Not sure, first time I’ve used the service. I totally understand and am prepared to agree with a predjudice against a service like this, because they’re going to end up sitting on private keys. But it’s optional, and actually a pretty handy way to manage a few aspects of PGP management.
danielpbarron: that means his key was generated in web browser via javascript, I think
popmechanic: Michael Goldstein referenced this channel on Twitter today. I hadn’t heard of it and am interested in Bitcoin so I thought I’d lurk for, oh, 6 months or so;)
ascii_field: i'll confess that my first thought, if anything were ever to appear signed with satoshi's key, that he has finally been found, killed, and usgificated.
ascii_field: if it is the intellectual authority behind satoshi's key, i must confess i have my doubts
gabriel_laddel: exact article I was thinking of
gabriel_laddel: there was one man who wanted to prosecute the IBM fella, and I can't remember his name...
ascii_field: the more i work with the eldritch horror, the less respect i have for this 'messiah'
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i wouldn't presume to be the only one pushing the heresy, no
mircea_popescu: specifically what i mean is this :
assbot: Logged on 15-07-2015 02:55:29; asciilifeform: ag3nt_zer0: i don't recall mircea_popescu ever devoting a whole article to specifically that one. his position, iirc, is 'satoshi lost the keys'
mircea_popescu: ah what the hell, i'll bite.
ascii_field: i dun see it
trinque: mircea_popescu: I see that point too
mircea_popescu: i think actually curtis yarvin is a very fine example of what's the problem with derps "reviewing the whole history"
trinque: and am glad I didn't waste more of my career.
trinque: I deeply and passionately resent everyone in the field which put systems such as these in my lap and told me they were "industry standards" and so on
trinque: ftr I listened to the talk; the way the man thinks is a perfect representative of a mind which makes incremental changes based on "real world pragmatism" without ever reviewing the whole history of the field and designing from that perspective.
mats: if you hate something, thats fine, but i expect specific and reasoned judgment; its well and good to despise node.js, or javascript, or c++, but i catch a funny smell in here when folks more or less coopt the opinions of their perceived betters ☟︎
