a111: Logged on 2016-12-27 05:28 asciilifeform: anything else puts a megatonne of weight on one single hash, a titanic reward for finding one single solitary collision, hashes (which are voodoo, in all variants, see friday's thread) are not built to withstand this kind of pressure.
davout: furthermore, i disagree with http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-27#1590896 in that the hash function doesn't have to be a "single" hash function, let user specify, or even put multiple fingerprints ☝︎
asciilifeform: this echoes the ffa 'omfg slow' discussions.
asciilifeform: get used to doing ~the actual thing~ instead of 'convenient' simulacra.
davout: i do get the points about hashes being voodoo black boxes, but otoh 2048 hex chars is hardly practical
davout: + exponent as asciilifeform points out, which iirc is to be 'large' as well
asciilifeform: moar if people get to pick own exponent
mircea_popescu: 512 chars as the case may be, but anyway.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-09 14:45 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally, the more i think about it the more i'm convinced the ONLY "fingerprint" for rsa key may be... the modulus. 4096 bits and fuck you, if you can't take 32 chars you don't belong here.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-27 05:27 asciilifeform: the only sane 'fingerprint' is the entire modulus+exponent.
asciilifeform: ( has links to earliers )
a111: Logged on 2017-08-15 22:24 asciilifeform: likewise we had the fingerprint thread
davout: ok, not same one then, plox to link
asciilifeform: lemme dig out the thread
asciilifeform: there's no provision for changing the fp algo.
asciilifeform: it's approx on par with the old chinese leather cannon, even chance of exploding
mircea_popescu: koch-gpg is an unreliable apparatus in the vein of random-shooting pistols etc.
mircea_popescu: at no point was this discussion about key identifiers. the fact that gpg reports "no expiration" FALSELY, as it reports all sorts of false or otherwise stupid, misleading etc non-facts is at issue
asciilifeform: this is The Right Thing
davout: pull by full key then!11 genius!
asciilifeform: and cannot be changed per the rfc.
asciilifeform: fwiw i never pushed my final gpg key to sks, and have nfi if it's there or not
mircea_popescu: notrly, no. koch-gpg iotself though.
lobbes: and yeah, I overlooked that I apparently had to also remove expiration on the sub -explicitly- (via gpg --edit-key). Even though it was showing the sub as 'expiration: none' after I had removed expiration on the pub way back when ☟︎☟︎
lobbes: all good now, but I had set my primary pub to not expire I think a year ago. But of course, I neglected to push this updated key to either keyservers or to, for example, deedbot
lobbes: thanks to trinque to his patience with me while I figured all that out the hard way
lobbes: note to n00bs out there: even if you had set your key to NOT expire, remember to *self-sign* both your pub AND your sub (and make sure people have copies of this updated pubkey))
a111: Logged on 2017-11-08 20:43 mircea_popescu: the name in question being, baldwin lushdrizzle.
mircea_popescu: i would propose this is because pornstars lack imagination not because the name lacks suggestiveness.
mircea_popescu: shinohai sadly, nobody does any schooling with the independent minded young'uns.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i find amusing the, eg, "suv" toyota recently waxed and parked in mud in front of a cheap brick wall. evidently, "vehemently opulent pork sausages".
shinohai likes how they bother with cloudflare, yet leak true ip due to mis-configured mail server
mircea_popescu: shinohai nah, that's more sophisticated.
mircea_popescu: exactly like the silicon valley variant in all points.
mircea_popescu: tis the name that caught the eye
mircea_popescu: (also published physicist of same name -- i suspect the father)
asciilifeform: lol that's less than a toyota
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform registered on the 7th current ie yest

ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: the german?
a111: Logged on 2017-11-08 17:42 asciilifeform: what's the logic, gotta wonder, 'maybe they'll reconsider surrendering' ?
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-08#1734309 << the logic of numbers someone printed on a website is "when did they last summon the energy to edit the file" ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-11-08 17:30 davout: so apparently the segwit2x derps finally yielded https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-segwit2x/2017-November/000685.html
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-08#1734288 << less thick than the previous set, i guess. ☝︎

davout: will converge to perceived risk pricing of leaving buttcoin on a platform until contract expiration
trinque: sold mine to that btcbuilder bag holder for a huge haircut
asciilifeform: ( whatever happened to goxcoin ? )
asciilifeform: prolly for the reason davout explained. rerun of goxcoin.
davout: people buying them do so in order to be able to withdraw from platforms immediately without waiting for the contract expiration on nov. 16th

davout: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-08#1734309 <<< logic is that on some platform that offered "prefork coin splitting" the prefork-SW2X-coinz are needed to merge with the prefork-actual-bitcoin in order to have a prefork-full-bitcoin ☝︎
asciilifeform: to the antimoon!!
trinque: graph of folks that didn't get the news over time
a111: 2017-10-06 <Framedragger> yes but someone committing to the project without having the necessary time is not far away from malice, imho
a111: 2017-09-11 <mike_c> congrats! I did that a long time ago too. Good luck with it.

mircea_popescu: apparently he goes through the caudine forks to supply his kitchen with proper stuffs.
a111: Logged on 2017-05-14 16:51 mircea_popescu: the (very indian) chef of great local place actually came out of kitchen to see these two people who were eating all the stuff i rodered ; but couldn't summon the courage to more than bow from a distance and scurry off.

trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-14#1655878 << inexcuably rude, not knowing how that works ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i'm guessing that scored one for teh patriarchy.

mircea_popescu: tell them it doesn't count untill they kiss the dancer's slit.
trinque: ben_vulpes has commented on this cognitive dissonance among the feminist cunts in portland. will go to the stripclub to signal lack of patriarchy something something, but find prostitution abhorrent
trinque: wasn't my place; kicked myself out with one of their bottles
mircea_popescu: so kick them out.
mircea_popescu: trinque why ? didn;'t take ?
trinque: it was times like these I realized what a sad place I lived in
mircea_popescu: they drink, watch porn, gangbang. it's a "fishing trip"
trinque: much to the shock of all
trinque remembers a time from his youth when drunk, chick puts on porn in group mixed company, figures hey, we're gonna fuck, proceeds as such.
mircea_popescu: anyway, wouldn't usually be room fulla chicks, unless in some narrow cases. generally the way this works is usualyl 2, rarely 1 if the men are poor or 3 if the men are showoffs, whores and however many men can stand each other, usually 8 +- 3
asciilifeform: tho fwiw i have nfi whether they had chix in attendance , or sat like redditors in modern american dormitory, salivating . asciilifeform familiar with the period largely through myth & legend.
asciilifeform: whereas 'magic tape' was .
asciilifeform: and i suspect that the story dwells on the cassette because being in a room full of chix, who may nor may not be whoring, was generally not an indictable crime
