mircea_popescu: Framedragger the task is 1) create a spider that connects to all servers/routers/anything that takes a ssh connection, and asks for key. there's an example given in the logs coupla weeks ago that prolly can be taken verbatim and improved as needed.
mircea_popescu: but hey, on the upside you;ll be able to take the button out.
mircea_popescu: principally in the form of "keys aren't pgp format, but tmsr format, of which ssh, pgp and others are idiotic restatements"
mircea_popescu: that may be ; but the problem here is that politically, we do not wish to recognize rsa is owned by pgp.
mircea_popescu: so far i'm trying to understand what specifically the db is like.
mircea_popescu: wtf is in that key, a date, an email, a name and a comment
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and if it finds only the comment field and the rest null it dies ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform 1001 ways ? at some point it keeps numbers in a db or no ?
mircea_popescu: jurov can you publish the convertor you used somewhere for later reference ? like your blog or w/e ?
mircea_popescu: so there were three : get the github keys - jurov did it ; get the ssh server/router spidering going, and convert. iirc nobody was doing this ; get pgp keys out of the gwen / sr dump. punkman was hm where is he.
mircea_popescu: well... i guess you make a tmsr - to - rfc 448866221133massachussetts convertor.
mircea_popescu: and it is at this juncture we discover alf doesn't actually have that implemented yet :D
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform well they did send children on a crusade once...
mircea_popescu: these schmucks think they're all part of the cast of friends.
mircea_popescu: alrighty, so it's basically a durnish laivas that thinks itself the capital [of the world].
mircea_popescu: what's the idiot village called in lithuanian folklore ?
mircea_popescu: the place is great for the first months. then the idiocy of the population starts to wear you down.
mircea_popescu: warwick castle was epic, but finding something you'd stick your penis into was ~impossible. i was stuck with imports the whole time.
mircea_popescu: anyway - yeah i suppose locals are fugly, but then again glasgow gets a lot of foreign students/tourists.
mircea_popescu: the uk nearly lost it's only submarine base ; where the only nuclear-bbc-radio-listener is based.
mircea_popescu: i only make fun of the london people. the scots are a sort of lithuania :D
mircea_popescu: of course, it's entirely meaningless ; argentines never act on what they or anyone else says.
mircea_popescu: you'd love argentina then. ALL they do is stop and chat in the streets ; half hour at a time, people who don't know each other.
mircea_popescu: ok, so where' you from in the sense of, where you at, then.
mircea_popescu: the solution is to behead the caliph and put the town under proper administration, not to shop around for "water" merchants. wtf are they going to sell you, they all draw from the same all-purpose pond.
mircea_popescu: there's nothing substantially wrong with freenode. they're a merchant of faeces infested water, as good as any other merchant of "water" in marakesh.
mircea_popescu: it's reasonable to deem they're under a gag order and actively diddled.
mircea_popescu: you know, they announced a major bug which looked just like a nsa plant ; promised a full investigation to soon follow ; haven't spoken a word since.
mircea_popescu: this protects from session hijacking, which is a major concern, especially since freenode's rape-and-gag adventure last year.
mircea_popescu: if you try to $rate someone it'll give you another token, every time
mircea_popescu: if you're unvoiced it can voice you, for a token. that's all it does.
mircea_popescu: (the split occured because he was in [unannounced] vacation while gribble went down ; after not being reacheable for a few days it looked like we're under attack and a new bot was made ; and properly this time. then nanotube came back, explained he was taking a vacation [all this being right around xmas] and well... no hard feelings, but also no readily available cure.)
mircea_popescu: there was some discussion with nanotube re his rewriting gribble to act properly (ie, sessionless) and interchange data, but it never came to naught. i dun think gribble is still being much maintained. no idea really.
mircea_popescu: all matter prior is found in both ; all matter after is found in one or another.
mircea_popescu: ah yeah. i think we'll need to make a "min 4gb ram for new boxes" tmsr standard ; so people can run general purpose + trb on them
mircea_popescu: hey trinque why does it answer so slowly ? is the lisp machine getting restarted on each call or somesuch ?
mircea_popescu: people who've been following along usually can't summon the interest, having other flags that call them stronger.
mircea_popescu: the idea in my head has always been that as intelligent people try to catch up, they'll use the wiki as their scratchpad
mircea_popescu: there is a wiki, would benefit from more maintainer effort.
mircea_popescu: ideally, one that doesn't support utf. (not necessarily utf per se - just an instantiation of the principle that features may be supported only if inexpensive enough.)
mircea_popescu: kinda why "make a new html" comes in. there's really no reason to support the bullshit. correct move would have been to make a new ssh.
mircea_popescu: (i've not much followed libressl, chiefly because anyone purporting to do crypto anything that's not in my wot is an outright fraud)
mircea_popescu: it's one of those cases where the team may be better than the codebase ; though honestly, the size of the matzah ball hanging on their head means that they'll prolly get crushed if haven't already
mircea_popescu: they've not really had time to do much at any rate ; how long ago did they split, a year ?
