sina: !!rate mircea_popescu gentleman and scholar

sina: no?

sina: !!v 7BFEED118C1BD7FA160C7780CA8F764D7A6DC051

sina: I am glad it isn't just me

sina: maybe phf is right and my key is fucked for real operations?

sina: how the fuck is it possible mircea_popescu can encrypt a msg against that key and I can successfully Hurr durr, but the OTP won't?

sina: mod6: same error

sina: congrats on 6.5d

sina: BingoBoingo: also nut scratching

sina: gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available

sina: I dunno man, I also tried "curl http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/kUwQx/?raw=true | gpg --local-user 7A6DC051 --decrypt

sina: and I registered "sina" against the same key thinking it was a different key

sina: ok, so facts are, my fucking backup system did in fact fucking work, and the herbi key was in my keyring uncorrupted this whole time

sina: Hurr durr

sina: I can decrypt that

sina: at least, I thought I did and now I think I'm just a piece of crazy shit

sina: phf: I used to use this key to identify with assbot all the time :(

sina: BingoBoingo: "save for later" LOL

sina: and paste it somewhere for me to test

sina: mircea_popescu: I know I am pestering, sorry. any chance you can encrypt a doc against my key

sina: mircea_popescu: I can do a detached signature and verify the sig, yes

sina: I run 'gpg --local-user 7A6DC051 --decrypt input' and I get error saying no secret key

sina: I can run 'gpg --local-user 7A6DC051 --sign input', it asks me for a password, I copy/paste the pw from my keepassx, it signs the fucking document

sina: BingoBoingo: yeah I am 100% there

sina: fuck is this some kind of gpg2 vs gpg1 shit

sina: mod6: the key was generated on, I think ubuntu 12 or 14.04 with a version of gpg I can't remember

sina: fedora 24 gpg 1.4.21

sina: and this is why I thought I didn't have the herbi key backed up because I was getting the same error

sina: right?

sina: I can even export the secret key with 'pg --export-secret-keys --armor 7A6DC051'

sina: how the fuck can I sign arbitrary files but not decrypt them

sina: anyway I am also coming to terms with the apparent fact that I can't fucking GPG to save my life

sina: I don't drink

sina: it was you asshole :D

sina: brb going to kill myself

sina: and now it turns out wrong

sina: so sexy

sina: but in my mind, all this time, as I navigated through my day to day life, I have been thinking that you rated me as sexy

sina: I am a mote, floating in a sea of meaningless futility

sina: BingoBoingo: that rating from you was the literal core of my being and now it is crumbling away

sina: what the fuck have I done wrong here. "gpg --export --armor sina.sa@gmail.com" ==> http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/STTlS/?raw=true ...registered with that. got an OTP URL from above. put it into a file called 'input', run 'gpg --decrypt input' get that error above

sina: whaaat

sina: it asks for a pw if I run `gpg --sign`

sina: what the fucking fuck is going on

sina: I do, but why isn't it asking me for a pw?

sina: I can export the key it is clearly there wtf is going on

sina: when I run gpg --decrypt input from the OTP, it says gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available

sina: gpg -K lists my secret key

sina: ok, I have clearly no fucking clue what is going on

sina: mircea_popescu: yeah I use it and it has proper backups
