mircea_popescu: ;;rate asciilifeform 4 First man to factor a 4096 RSA key in the history of computing.
gribble: You rated user asciilifeform on Sat Nov 30 16:31:44 2013, with a rating of 3, and supplied these additional notes: S.NSA engineer..
asciilifeform: mxtm: some 2 schmucks (of which i've identified 1, but the other will follow in a week or so) had common factor in their rsa private keys.
mircea_popescu: achtung BingoBoingo cazalla : phuctor broke a rsa. ☟︎
asciilifeform: jurov: there is a second, but it will take a while to unearth it.
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 ☟︎
asciilifeform: which is to say, i could sign, with his key, 'please rape me in public with a donkey' and it will be as legit as anything he will ever say himself
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu likes to speak of having 'killed' that greek derp, but in a very real sense the schmuck whose key we just broke, is dead
asciilifeform: we haven't really discussed it, but there are interesting implications in breaking a fella's pgp key.
adlai: (phuctor now knows the factorization of a single key, and it knows which of the two prime factors is shared with the second bugger)
asciilifeform: phun phuct: i never actually tested the code which displays phuctored moduli. (couldn't be bothered to craft a dud key, it's a pain) - but it worked. because was written correctly. perhaps a novel concept to some folks
asciilifeform: ;;later tell kakobrekla https://bitbet.us/bet/1144/phuctor-will-find-a-bad-key can be resolved? get the necessary data from mircea_popescu
asciilifeform: yes, we broke a pgp key.
copypaste: ;;later tell mircea_popescu 8chan is also blocked in Saudi Arabia and Oman according to reports I've received. Apparently only a few Russian ISP block it on order of ROSKOMNADZOR.
BingoBoingo though doing an honest assessment finds a person who can reasonably keep up in a lot of #b-a convos but who can't program for shit. And honestly... training to trade punches seems much easier than learning to program on any level approaching asciilifeform, ben_vulpes, and mod6.
cazalla buys BingoBoingo a tapout shirt for xmas
BingoBoingo: Anyways my survey of the field now is half the people on my high school's football team tried MMA at one point and got into "pro" fights of some sort. They played the proverbial tomato can to a t.
BingoBoingo: you a native to?
BingoBoingo: <gabriel_laddel> BingoBoingo: The bent I'm attempting to communicate here is something like this: You've made it to #b-a, which unlike any community I've ever encountered provides a foundation for building a sane civilization and you want to... become a boxer? It doesn't follow. Boxing is a last resort sort of thing, even if you were to become the worlds best boxer you're still basicly some poor fuck who couldn't make << Where are
BingoBoingo: http://philippinefailblog.com/what-a-filipino-resume-might-look-like/
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Turkeys here you can catch wild. Fuck, drove past a roadkill armadillo today which should only happen on the other side of the mississippi river. Chickens though... It takes three eggs to make a decent omlette. Even if you are getting an egg from each hen per day that's still a lot of birdshit.
cazalla: BingoBoingo, buying em? what's the matter with you, can't catch a chicken?
BingoBoingo: If anyone didn't guess already the Qntra Bird Flu article came out of buying 2 dozen eggs and the next week buying the same two dozen eggs for a budget busting (who plans for 67% markups) price.
cazalla: BingoBoingo, anyway we should both train and then we can put on some exhibition fights in BA in a year or 2, find some local picaninnies to go up against
cazalla: it's a great story though, not the first trilema article i read but the first that stuck in my mind
mircea_popescu: cazalla oh that's a point huh.
BingoBoingo: Nah that's a tie for beating rhonda quotes
cazalla: ya should toss a quote in from that boy and the tree, that'd go well in /pol/ believe it or not
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Honestly having been roundly rejected by the fiat economy anything I approach is as a hobby, except for the qntra. The Qntra is deadly serious.
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel i think that's how half the chan people are too. that's why it's such a trap for them
mircea_popescu: " You've made it to #b-a, which unlike any community I've ever encountered provides a foundation for building a sane civilization and you want to... become a boxer? It doesn't follow." << ahaha lulzy way to put it, but i dbout the guy actually aspires to this as his life. sounded more like a hobby to me
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel kinda too long to fit on a banner, i fthat's what you meant ?
mircea_popescu: can be bundled into a usb stick or CD/DVD installer with a single procedure call <<< exactly this.
BingoBoingo: I'm actually pretty good at taking a beating.
cazalla: ya know BingoBoingo, people told pacman he couldn't become a boxer
BingoBoingo: It requires minimal monetary expenditure and substantial time expenditure to approach X, A side effect of X is getting punched. Getting punched will happen regardless through other habits I entertain.
gabriel_laddel: <BingoBoingo> My take is there is a tradition. << this means nothing to me
gabriel_laddel: Regarding China - finding reliable chemical suppliers and integrating with the WoT sounds like a useful use of one's life.
BingoBoingo: My take is there is a tradition.
gabriel_laddel: Yeah, always work towards a purpose, not a cause right?

BingoBoingo: citalopram vs. escitalopram and levo-methamphatamine vs. dex-methamphetamine is a good starting point on chirality
BingoBoingo: gabriel_laddel: It is a rotational thing. Anything cool will lack symmetry greater than C1.
BingoBoingo: I know the concept of a recipe and I know what a catecholamine is.
BingoBoingo: Oh, scary is context dependent. I sat through ~75% of a pharmacy school's curriculum as a grad assistant who just worked the microphones.
gabriel_laddel: a motivated chemist is really fucking scary
BingoBoingo: gabriel_laddel: I live in a rogue state atm (Illinois) and I'd rather not have to get a prostate exam to buy legit hunting rifle of Mosin or Simnov design. So earlier this week I was watching past oscar movies and hit Million Dollar Baby. Then it hit me. Why not weaponize me?
gabriel_laddel: BingoBoingo: are you trying to impress to fuck a doctor or something?
BingoBoingo: gabriel_laddel: Year one goal is ending their year in sufficient shape after a decade of chainsmoking and heavy drinking to not get too winded at a gym
BingoBoingo: WOuld maybe recruit for La Republic serene if we need a trebuchet
BingoBoingo: gabriel_laddel: Nah, avoiding MMA, becoming a boxing tomato can for my 40th birthday in 11 years
gabriel_laddel: BingoBoingo: becoming a MMA punching bag? Yeah.

gabriel_laddel: "Reductio ad absurdum, which Euclid loved so much, is one of a mathematician's finest weapons. It is a far finer gambit than any chess play: a chess player may offer the acrifice of a pawn or even a piece, but a mathematician offers the game. -- A Mathematician's Apology (London 1941)"
gabriel_laddel: "PS. Smart people don't give a shit about how much money you have. Because they can take it from you, any time they feel like it. Get it through your skull: you ain't buying it, you ain't coercing it, get on your knees and start worshipping it." -- http://trilema.com/2013/the-sanity-dogma/#comment-95113
gabriel_laddel sees *nix hetrogeny as meaningless unless the personalized systems all have sources included, can be bundled into a usb stick or CD/DVD installer with a single procedure call
gabriel_laddel: Testing the install process has been impeded by possibly faulty hardware (my testing box reliably kernel panics as of today - idkwtf). I'm stalled until I've new boxen. If someone were willing to set aside a few hours to test the install process, please leave it in the logs. I'll follow up with you via PM.
decimation: sure, pakistan has been a useful stooge for a variety of powers
trinque: decimation | it occurs to me that one use of deedbot would be timestamping potential evidence, like camera/video captures << seems a fine use.

deedbot-: http://cascadianhacker.com/index.xml is a go!
decimation: my point being that it only turns out to be newsworthy once a major accident happens and people get injured/killed
decimation: while he was a senator
decimation: but the important bits are within walking distance of a metro station
decimation: not really. you gonna land a plane in grand central station
decimation: "Getting ?rocked,? as locomotive engineers call it, is so common on the Northeast Corridor that trains long had metal grills over their windshields to act as armor. These days, thick glass is specifically designed to withstand the impact of a cinder block. Amtrak officials say trains are pelted in the neighborhoods around the crash site monthly."
williamdunne: decimation: Seems like they'd server more of a deterrent purpose than anything
asciilifeform: not meaningless >> http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ab/Cis-trans.svg/1280px-Cis-trans.svg.png
williamdunne: Indeed, so she is either a transvestite or a squirrelkin
williamdunne: Its more like if you blame women, you're (probably) a man
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah it's a fair point. my mental viewpoint for sampled signals is always a frequency domain visualization. my 'test' would be a really long fft
decimation: asciilifeform: I rarely deal with irregularly sampled signals, the idea creeps me out a little bit
asciilifeform: indiancandy1: paid mircea_popescu a visit yet ?
asciilifeform: decimation: at any rate, the -correct- way to sample these for experimental purposes is with either parallel port or a generic i/o gadget (e.g., 'ftdi')
decimation: asciilifeform: your old soundblaster card came with a joystick input
assbot: Logged on 17-05-2015 02:50:28; williamdunne: indiancandy1: I'm a 7" tall Somalian
indiancandy1: there is a somalian guu
indiancandy1: i just bought some baloons of a somalian
williamdunne: indiancandy1: I'm a 7" tall Somalian ☟︎
decimation: asciilifeform: or you could use a parallel port, if your computer has one
asciilifeform: now, if you have a -very- well-behaved os, you could sample it as rs232 anyway. but then you discover (see old mircea_popescu article where we stepped on this caltrop!) that you end up losing bytes that match 'control' section of ascii table
decimation: so really you need a '1-bit adc'
asciilifeform: i.e. a pin that changes level when it wants.
asciilifeform: decimation: that dongle is just the thing for, e.g., pogo - but the rng is not a rs232 device...
decimation: someone who doesn't have a proper vice
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes plugged it into a serial port ?!?!!
asciilifeform: aha it's a joystick
assbot: Logged on 17-05-2015 00:08:31; jurov: i suspect turning electrons in sharp curves needs a strong mag field -> high current
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-05-2015#1134106 << they did exist, 'field emission display' (essentially a crt with one electron gun - of cold cathode type - per subpixel!) ☝︎
gribble: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=itt | ITT. Usually done in all caps, it is the first post on a fourm. It directly mean In This ... ITT I'm wrong compared to popular opinion but I'll post this definition anyway.
mircea_popescu: "man, i hadnt seen an ad on the interne in years. thought it was a banner for awhile" << bwahahaha.
mircea_popescu: nk that is a good thing."
mircea_popescu: http://v8chan.com/thread/3744246/what-is-this-ad.html << "As much I don't want to bring in /pol/ into every discussion, /leftypol/ is a hundred times worse.

mircea_popescu: hey, that looks like a bunch of dudes slapping the shit out of some chick
mircea_popescu: and it is now time for a review of teh various butthurt!
ben_vulpes: no, but it's a very useful answer
jurov: i suspect turning electrons in sharp curves needs a strong mag field -> high current ☟︎
mircea_popescu: you gotta add a zoom of the damned gerbils
