mircea_popescu: you telling me the rsa e must be
a fermat prime ? why ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform 65537 is not
a mersenne prime either. what did i step into ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, thgis is more an aesthetic consideratyion. ditching symmetric cyphers is the more substantial thing, and since
a reimplementation happenes, might as well add aesthetics.
assbot: Logged on 16-10-2014 14:00:51; mircea_popescu: btw, cazalla bingoboingo and everyone else in the same situation : if the blob gpg spits out when you sign contains
a SHA1 you are using the older, and perhaps not all that secure digest algo. you should move on to sha512 either with --digest-algo SHA512 or else edit gpg.conf to insert personal-digest-preferences SHA512 SHA384 SHA256
mircea_popescu: much simpler machines to work it if it knows
a straight offset
mircea_popescu: add to that
a fixed-offset clearsigned thing, all of
a sudden there's good reason to implement
mircea_popescu: you know, thinking about this, i think i actyally want pgp reimplemented. usgavin's speshul maths about how things improve make me realise that having
a pure rsa based code rather than the current encode
a symmetric chypher method is perhaps feasible.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: ideally, we'd have
a patch and
a collection of detached sigs of the plain ascii of the patch <<< detached sigs are in fact
a reimplementation of the old punch cards
mircea_popescu: hanbot: haha! where are the burning man btc gizmos anyway, i want
a bitonkadonk << wait, i thought you... HAD ONE
mircea_popescu: then people can be really secure built from the ground up by running
a coupla vms on the same machine :D
mircea_popescu: *: asciilifeform can't really picture woman playing this game << dude you were in
a different ukraine or what ? i have yet to meet
a uk chick that doesn't drink.
decimation: I've always imagined what would happen if I were marooned in pre-history with
a few choice textbooks
☟︎ mircea_popescu does not deliberately check out males he doesn't know. busting into the life of
a woman is one thing, but
a dude...
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: that's actually not bad, only ~425 pages << and suddenly,
a feasible appears!
mircea_popescu: undata: and they will spend it how? << don't be silly. every place with intenret has
a bitcoin trader by now.
mod6: need to figure out if we should add in jurov or what's happening there. then we need
a pub address.
mircea_popescu: Duffer1 maybe you just get lapdances from b-
a slut co.
jurov: and you forgot to add satoshi as
a cochair</troll>
mod6: yeah, i think it was decided that we'd put that in
a seperate document.
jurov: btw if other people will sign
a concrete patch, that prevents later diddling anyway
jurov: and i don't see
a value iin redoing the browsable archives that mailman generates
jurov: asciilifeform: how? generate
a deed for every patch?
gribble: You rated user punkman on Fri May 16 09:11:15 2014, with
a rating of 1, and supplied these additional notes: Talent scout and secret agent..
punkman: Ragnar will run
a mirror on somethin.deedbot.com
mircea_popescu: so mod6 ben_vulpes, do we have
a charter to go in there ?
mircea_popescu: punkman if you want
a dyi mirror, i can give you
a cpanel ?
punkman: anyone wants to keep
a mirror, I'll make the thing push bundles to you
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nah original spec called for keeping all the deeds, as
a sort of primitive distributed backup
mircea_popescu:
a dozen or so hashes to choose from don't really give any advantage
ben_vulpes: punkman:
a draft did, yeah. look for mod6's dpaste
punkman: I'd also like
a mouse with less edges and crevices that accumulate gunk
ben_vulpes: i've
a question about mining, for anyone who knows.
kakobrekla: is there
a benefit to masking
a team with
a person?
undata: I was going to say wannabe FDR in
a skirt, but I like 'clitler'
bounce: shitty website unless you have
a shiny iTablet
punkman: jurov: will make
a standalone verifier for deeds
gribble: Error: "gpginfo" is not
a valid command.
punkbot: punkman: No pending deeds | Last bundle n/
a ago
jurov: and apple-like walled garden regulation of whole computing industry is quite
a different thing
jurov: and quite
a harm can arise from that
kakobrekla: asciilifeform> kakobrekla: i linked this here
a day or so ago < ah, i guess i have achieved absolute redundancy.
bounce: which then causes extra rules and more bureaucrats "overseeing" the rules and whatnot. it's sort of scar tissue. about as useful, at least as much of
a pain.
Vexual: mu back foot just turned into
a claw
Vexual: that makes me wanna play
a song, you know this
gribble: Error: "getrust" is not
a valid command.
Adlai: they realized that their audience in front of
a few hundred students was much more valuable than their labor over
a weekend
Adlai: the group that used their presentation chance the next week to advertise
a local management consulting firm
Adlai: some groups opened up
a car wash, some groups resold stuff from yard sales, etc
Adlai: reminds me of
a story where
a class (probably economics, or MBAs) had to figure out how to best monetize $100 (roughly) over the course of
a weekend
