mircea_popescu: i don't think you're enough of a pedophile to give a shit about what teenaged women do anyway.
mircea_popescu: phf afaik it never downloads it. if your key expires you're fucked.
mircea_popescu: and entrenching aristocracy means sclerosis and stuff like that, but let's not get too serious.
mircea_popescu: he happens to be exactly right, too. welfare class strictly means entrenching aristocracy, it isn't even a thing on and of itself. just a sympthom of that phenomena.
mircea_popescu: he entrenchment of an aristocracy, can't have one without the other once you get bigger than 20M, ask Bismarck. "Does he write for Time?" No. But keep this in mind every time you hear how great it is Bill Gates is curing malaria after leaving us all with Windows."
mircea_popescu: in media and not understand media? The fact that feminism is in the mainstream means that it doesn't exist, it is no longer real, in the same way that when you hear "gun control debate" it's a lie and "fiscal cliff" is an easy to market, safe distraction from the structural problems that can never be named, here's one: for any heterogeneous population, the expansion of a "welfare class" is logically inseparable from t
mircea_popescu: "For the past two weeks Sandberg was anywhere nothing useful is happening, and I'm going to include Facebook in that. Some cry-baby over at Jezebel was thrilled that Sandberg was featured all week on Access Hollywood, holy Christ, she thought this was a good thing. "Feminism is back in the mainstream in a big way," she wrote, I assume in between quaaludes, "the women's movement is actually moving." How can you work
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: and in other news these monte cristos are fucking exquisite.
mircea_popescu: actually universal agreement being strictly detrimental is a standing rule.
mircea_popescu: the side point being that agreement is neither required nor actually the criteria.
mircea_popescu: just a large-ish body of accepted knowledge which merely appears accepted "by everyone" in the sense that nobody agrees with all of it but nobody has seriously attacked all of it.
mircea_popescu: unlike any decent cult, b-a does not actually have a cannon.
mircea_popescu: you want a washbasin to shit in, plug the bidet and go at it.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: it's not like the distinction is in any way meaningful. it's pure bullshit, which is one of the major reasons the pgp "standard" is so borken. there's no actual enforcing of the notions it then purports to expose to the verbal world.
mircea_popescu: "subkey shenanigans" are EXACTLY what "someone finding a collision for your fp" means.
mircea_popescu: funny how many people discover they really got nothing to say once the gate is there.
mircea_popescu: after which litigation, sex tapes, and finally married an ex nfl quarterback.
mircea_popescu: miss california / miss usa aspirant, asked by that slime perez hilton what she thinks of same sex marriages, didn't have the presence of mind to tell the old fag to stuff it with the bullying, as this is about hot young women not about wrinkly old poofs nobody would fuck with a loaned goat penis,
mircea_popescu: unrelatedly, anyone familiar with the life of this 2010 rapunzel, carrie perjean ?
mircea_popescu: iirc i have a "why you don't want to chain hashes" thing somewhere.
mircea_popescu: can you demonstrate rsa malleability in the sense of, appending "pete_dushenski.rate.punkman.2:" as prefix to cyphertext ?
mircea_popescu: but yes, automated security and suicide share a flavour.
mircea_popescu: kinda why the issuie is an elephant in room : we (i) dun really wanna go into it because it's such a bitch to manage and creeping featuritis 5 ways to sunday
mircea_popescu: no, but if the number reads "4" you don't need to be shown the deed with number 3 to know 4 is a valid number.
mircea_popescu: jurov well you wouldn't know in advance. maybe 3 is unreleased and you see 2 and 4
mircea_popescu: the text is "assbot:pete_dushenski.rate.punkman.2:blabla"
mircea_popescu: 22:36:14 pete_dushenski: !v assbot:pete_dushenski.rate.punkman.2:be692bd7a8864924c2526b0f2b72dd90baebc89bf10b131ff925358764b9be
mircea_popescu: ascii_field it includes a plaintext field for this reason.
mircea_popescu: otherwise you get a disaster of commons situation where 5k services are stuck doing things because you were bored one evening. that might work for a woman's book club\
mircea_popescu: puts the cost of security right where it belongs : on the key owner.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it allows you to update it. the idea that others would accept your update on your own terms and for free is bizarre and i guess unwarranted. going forward i imagine moist everything will be financed through fees on key updates. such as say assbot.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field not so sure how smart that is. garbage is interpretable.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: jurov what's wrong with a deed saying "this is my new keyt" ?
mircea_popescu: anyway. an enemy sitting on your wire in possession of your key is no enemy at all. he's your wife, like it or not.
mircea_popescu: jurov because the date at which a message was signed is not verifiable.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field because if i say "no messages with index past 500 may be signed by this key" the key actually is verifdiably dead.
mircea_popescu: that given the known weaknesses of the pgp protocol as it is, the only responsible manner of using it is to include an index in every signed item, and to increment it by one every time you sign anything.
mircea_popescu: i suppose the elephant in the room sort of point we've been avoiding is this :
mircea_popescu: well not for identification, but still, suable for what it's used for.
mircea_popescu: jurov you're also expected to have the same penis for the next40+ years.
mircea_popescu: "You might think that the rage is the spark for a transformation of America, a full scale Dagny Taggart meltdown or Bolshevik revolution, depending on your hat. That's not how it works. If this is narcissism, then its purpose is protecting identity, defending against change. Doesn't matter what side you think you're on, unless you are unplugged you are for the status quo."
mircea_popescu: tbh i think his grasp of the fargo demographic is much better than his grasp of cali.
mircea_popescu: too busy pretending something or the other, as the case may be.
