mircea_popescu: not exactly undoable, either, but not much of a priority as we don't have yet a
tmsr internet spec.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger like in
that scene derps love
to quote, "what good is a phone mr usg, if you can't
talk ?"
Framedragger: aha!
that'd be something. i mean, still full-on DMA, but yeah, k.

Time
to create a competent chip manufacturer. Anyone got a spare US sized military budget?"

☟︎ Framedragger: ^ alf seems
to have covered (and dismissed),
tho

the key, is immaterial
BingoBoingo: Sometimes
there are weird exceptions
to ethanol free lake gas being great for small motors, some of
the 4-cycle hondas have
trouble with octane numbers over 89 and
the ethanol free lake stuff is
the premium 91, 93, or 94 octane
BingoBoingo: Ethanol free gas also very useful for 2-cycle power equipment because carb'd rather
than fuel injected (for now)
BingoBoingo: You'd be suprised
the amount of water "Up
to 10% ethanol" can absorb
BingoBoingo: Beware
toyota
trucks from regions subject
to winter road salting
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: could you
take a picture of said $28k pickup ?
a111: Logged on 2017-04-10 01:43 mircea_popescu is more
than willing
to share his dollar-a-lb bounty with l1 all-comers. i also made myself fruit salad out of [actually ripe] mango, [actually ripe] pineapple, [actually ripe] banmanas, drenched in fresh oj etc.
mircea_popescu: burned hole, "plox upgrade
to new one" business as usual.
mats: and claims as
to 'our
team was looking for hardware backdoors' when
the guy's a 'journalist' is dubious at best
mats: ya but
that dummy had nothing but insinuations
a111: Logged on 2017-05-02 01:44 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform eh, 8k buys you like
two cars here.
mircea_popescu: also a row boat where you live goes for $200
to $800 depending on model.
a111: Logged on 2017-05-01 22:37 Framedragger: funny: if one were
to follow intel's route of patching firmware, as regards say x220s, lenovo gives update in
the form of windows executables
Framedragger: (in fairness, it wasn't 'newlifeomg!', it was 'a buncha
things in 1991~2 .lt during bank crisis etc')

the lulz of all fucking
time, a grand bought his father a new life 25 years ago ; i just did
the household accounting, my petty cash line is a shade over $8`000.
that excludes rents like it excludes isp bills or agents on a mission or anything else worth
the fucking mention. a grand would buy me half a week's worth of groceries,
taking a girl out or buying her some random dress we saw in
the window so she comes out of
the sho
mircea_popescu: Framedragger yeah, not sure how much work i want expended
to support nickserv's fiatista notions of dns.
trinque: yeah, sorta
tape over "we don't own
the ircd"
Framedragger: almost as if
the
thing would need
to wait and
then send a challenge
to
that same nick, but
this is kinda promisetronic i guess.
mircea_popescu: i guess
this is one of
those, "pretend like your name reg is worth something without deedbot at your own peril" impedance mismatches not really worth fixing.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: what does
that accomplish? !!v
to show
that key i'm registering is indeed owned by me?
trinque: mircea_popescu: idea being
to require people
to be auth'd
to nickserv first?
Framedragger: (-NickServ- You have 30 seconds
to identify
to your nickname before it is changed.)
mircea_popescu: trinque
there's a vulnerability in how deedbot handles registrations in
that even with nick enforcing on, one has enough
time before chanserv kicks him off (2-3 seconds ?)
to shoot a reg string at deedbot and get
the name registered
to his key.
Framedragger: "tl;dr: OVH had an issue where your second network card was connected
to other servers in
the datacenter.
This allowed you
to run a DHCP server and offer a gateway.
This also allows you
to MITM several machines outbound
traffic, I had 35 machines responding back with DHCP Leases and about 4 routing outbound
traffic
to me as
their router."
Framedragger: re 'years from now', guess so, can't see why not. fun exploit
times! (but seriously, opened
ticket at $provider
to query about a xeon cpu)
Framedragger: funny: if one were
to follow intel's route of patching firmware, as regards say x220s, lenovo gives update in

☟︎ mircea_popescu: eh,
they'll be happily churning along years from now. just look at
the debian keys or openssh horrors etc.
Framedragger: ('provisioning' (see link) is (i
think) a separate
thing.)
Framedragger: *actually*, one needs
to ask
their hosting providers if AMT is enabled (BIOS setting), wouldn't hurt
Framedragger: "I can vouch for iluvbitcoins. I haven't dealt with him but I have a spoken
to him a few
times a while back." what
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in bed, bath and beyonder,

pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: in
theory, any objections
to a dc located in india ?
mircea_popescu: there is no such
thing as "saving" as alf referenced previous discussion because
this "saving" is fundamentally and at its core an anti-concept. "how
to be powerless while retaining power". nigga, wut ?
mircea_popescu: nobody said you gotta be a figment of some redditard's imagination, now did
they.
mircea_popescu: yes.
the alternative
to not being a creature of
this world is BEING a creature of
this world.
Framedragger: i suppose
the alternative is not necessarily "buy up bitcoin" (somehow stuck in mind), but invest in business (and possibly (non-nato, or w/e) real estate). (not against my current plans, just, can't do all at once (yet))
mircea_popescu: if a million dollars buys you a decent meal in another 25 years you should count yourself lucky, and
that's only 2042, 8 more
to go
to 2050.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: just like it doesn't really matter what specifically you watch on
tv, it's still
turning you into a single fat middle aged woman.
mircea_popescu: it is fundamentally
toxic, yes.
this is how you ended up with so many "naive premise can't disagree with other partrs" etc.
Framedragger: i use wikipedia for quick lookup of $topic sometimes; i also use it as "collection of references
to other places"
thing. is
this fundamentally
toxic? maybe.
Framedragger: so
the disagreement stems from
that (naive) premise. other parts of reasoning i cannot disagree with, of course.
Framedragger: i admit
that i still have
this notion of "global internet" in my mind, as a +ev
thing.
mircea_popescu: and don't
tell me "that people
themselves should be able
to choose". people
themselves are morons, will gladly "choose" frozen
tacos if given
that "choice".
mircea_popescu: so explain
this
to me. yesterday i was in ##crypto. after a while i... left.
this has
the blessed effect
that
the inept idiocies spewed by some immature dickheads no longer befoul my
timeline.
turkey allowed wikipedia.
then after a while it
turned it off.
this has
the blessed effect
thjat immature dickheads no longer befoul its
timeline.
Framedragger: we block idiot "write access", so
to speak. not blacklisting IPs in logotrons (yet!)
mircea_popescu: (no, wikipedia has nothing
to do wirth anything BUT usg propaganda.)
Framedragger finds any "blocking"
to be retarded on a fundamental level
mircea_popescu: the fact
that
they're blocking
the usg
tendrils scarcely argues against
them.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu:
they have massive firewall, blocking at will. could be not a problem, depending on business case of customers of course. and i guess
the counter would be "everyone does"
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: lol if people want boxes racked in
the heart of
the empire i can do it for 100/mo for a 2U
