justJanne: (I have
a bouncer on my server with 1Gbps connection, so I rarely notice DDoS at all)
justJanne: I got some traffic on my system from 159.118.187.45 accessing my server via HTTPS and sending
a few thousand GET requests, but nothing really devastating
danielpbarron: i heard that it just targets the user who most recently joined, and especially if it is
a new hostmask
justJanne: Reminds me of that guy spamming
a gaming channel with links to their DDoSing company
mats: decimation: i'm just happy to find
a fun action movie that passes the Bechdel test
assbot: Logged on 18-05-2015 00:43:05; mats: ever cut grass with
a pair of scissors?
pete_dushenski: you call that grass ? i trim more manbush than that on
a monthly basis.
mats: ever cut grass with
a pair of scissors?
☟︎ decimation: sounds like
a good way to save on staff costs
pete_dushenski: i've seen most of bc previously, just hadn't been to vic in
a while.
decimation: heh. I guess I can see why
a pawn shop wouldn't bother with shipping
pete_dushenski: decimation that it is. though victoria feels like
a million miles away from us-istan.
decimation: fun fact: there's
a part of vancouver, bc that is us territory (point roberts)
pete_dushenski: "We have been in business for nearly 26 years and hold
a full pawnbroking license to buy, sell and loan." << no mention of shipping eh...
pete_dushenski: wtf my privilege nothing. i'm getting on
a plane tmrw morning and it's not so much to ask to have
a seller of goods to crate
a fucking table for transport.
pete_dushenski: honestly, there are thousands of cruise ship tourist visiting victoria daily, and these assderps haven't figured out shipping
a box 1,000km IN THE SAME COUNTRY
pete_dushenski: so i walk into
a shop on the edge of chinatown and find
a beautiful mid-century modern walnut table
ben_vulpes: > gribble is not
a tty. falling back to telnet.
gribble: Error: "$(sleep" is not
a valid command.
williamdunne: Its
a line of speedboats that can go underwater on command without any real preparation to collect drugs dropped from boats
decimation: meanwhile this guy (hboeck) has
a post that pretty much says "nothing to worry about", and is promoted to #1
pete_dushenski: "sur" is too literal of
a translation from english, "par bicyclete" even.
DreadKnight: anyway, I partnered up with
a coder this year, will see how that goes in the long run
DreadKnight: ben_vulpes,
a return is not always needed, some people do things for passion or practice; there are quite
a few nice free open source games out there and software, most likely the browser you are making is done half by unpaid contributors
trinque: DreadKnight: doing the ad-supported thing is
a loss leader at best; you have to be able to burn money until your audience is large enough to merit being paid for the # of eyeballs
☟︎ ben_vulpes: people working for
a link or publicity need to have some sort of assurance that their time so spent is going to yield
a return.
decimation: there are clearly people on hacker news who are enemies of #b-
a ☟︎ DreadKnight: the other day found out that
a cg animation series done in blender by just one dude used quite
a few of the creatures from my project :)
DreadKnight: well, there are quite
a few reasons, crediting (name/link), experience, the joy of contributing to something bigger just to name
a few
DreadKnight: we have
a saying around, going something like "you drawn like the gypsy near the shore", meaning overall that you failed in the last few steps
☟︎ DreadKnight: ben_vulpes, didn't coded the gameplay, it's
a bit above my skill level; anyway, even if I did 100% of the thing, would still need funding
trinque: ben_vulpes: oh don't misunderstand, I am
a big fan of the 5-way lumbar support
ben_vulpes: trinque: keep laughing, you'll be renting
a desk soon
mircea_popescu: bitrated.com/zmanian/ << there's even
a chump wot and everything
DreadKnight: if I secure
a bit of cash, things will run smoothly
DreadKnight: regarding the game, polishing documentation and preparing some
a crowd funding
trinque: ben_vulpes: probably faster than waiting for
a glibc fix :^)
alphonse23_: sure. it just
a shame. hacker news was
a real gem back in the day. I'm sure it's inevitable, as things become more mainstream, they get too political, and less honest. Now I have to go out
a find good honest news from somewhere underground.
assbot: Logged on 17-05-2015 15:59:46; adlai: jurov: yes, at least two keys need to have
a primer in common. had phuctor run over the keys in reverse order, it would've found the other chump first
davout: if i then submit
a key whose factors are 3 and 5
davout: mircea_popescu: well, if i craft
a key whose factors are 1 and 3, theoretically it's
a valid gpg key
trinque: this guy's making me write
a test program to fix an include in glibc
mircea_popescu: alphonse23_ anyway, the mistake here is for members of the public naive enough to imagine conde nast / ycombinator / etc sites represent anything but the alt-reality their owners have
a financial interest in.
mircea_popescu: the conundrum is more along the lines of "what constitutes
a key"
davout: the bet was misworded from the beginning, had someone intentionally created
a set of shitty keys and fed the to the phuctor, it would resolve as yes
mircea_popescu: davout that bet promises to be
a conundrum to resolve.
alphonse23_: HN has changed
a lot in the pass few months
mircea_popescu: there is theoretical support, but in practice the lists seem dead and i have nfi who can even undertake that beast of
a task
assbot: Logged on 17-05-2015 16:10:13; mircea_popescu: achtung BingoBoingo cazalla : phuctor broke
a rsa.
ben_vulpes: "Someone handed you an ebuild, and you don't know what to do with it? Fear not, for here be instructions!" << docs with
a dash of humor
mircea_popescu: i updated the article to lulz
a little at the ydumbinator crew
danielpbarron: >> There is
a service called Phunctor where you can upload
a key and it'll check it against
a set of known vulnerable moduli.
mircea_popescu: the instructor said don't touch anything.
A crew member responded by saying “it doesn't matter none of it works anyway, you can touch what you want.”
mircea_popescu: Zoe Quinn is the role model, dumbass made
a "game" that wouldn't have passed muster in the early sierra adventure games
BingoBoingo: But this accidentally seems to mostly affect
a certain kind of person
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, downside of sleeping in is I missed
a timely annoucement of keys shattering. On the plus side Am I reading it right, that the pattern seems to be various sorts of strongset people have these weak keys, almost exclusively?
BingoBoingo: What
a fucking morning to sleep in !!! Digesting Convos around Phuctor's discovery and writing up some news.
mircea_popescu: "We are at war, with
a new kind of enemy. The terrorists have infiltrated every nation on our planet." tsk tsk now how would will mcneilly know this.
mircea_popescu: so can anyone get
a key server, no matter which, to somehow swallow up an extra subkey for an existing key ?
mircea_popescu: moreover, the way it presents the blob is as
a single, shares pgp key blob
mircea_popescu: i'd have added "or one of his harem slaves" but iirc he's
a twink
mircea_popescu: trinque is this like the only bit of c code deployed without stdint ? i wonder if he had
a reason
mircea_popescu: im letting things settle for
a day and plan to write
a follow-up.
mircea_popescu: there's
a long tradition of "must fail to pass" bullshit seen in the wild, and allegedly not originated by nsa
mircea_popescu: maybe this is paort of
a tandem with specific userland diddling.
davout: the real thing here would be to actually find
a GPG implementation that does not run the check that leads normal ones to simply discard this key
