Framedragger: re. per minute, i guess i should reach out to consult first eh - this was borne from a solipsistic "me
as a customer" consideration: e.g. i want to test out some trb feature across multiple different instances, i need good i/o and memory; monthly costs would not be trivial (for the purpose at hand), so i wish to be charged on smaller timescales.
Framedragger: (ideas and merciless criticism very welcome,
as always)
Framedragger: easiest way of doing this if it were to return a non-dns-poisoned ip,
as in, trilema.com/stuff1.tgz => 45.56.78.91/stuff1/
mircea_popescu: could I do something like !$mirror <url> 5 so
as to get it to spin up 5 separate instances, load url, unpack it and serve ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: then 15 years later they're having "a conversation" on ~~facebook~~ about things (
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-29#1649833 ) and expect to be taken seriously, and for their INCREDIBLY offensive tone to pass
as socially acceptable. the romanians of facebook, disgusting crawlies that came out of the eggs laid by the "romanians on ms office" repugnant creepies.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: sure
as fuck no one in 2009 was willing to buy the 2009 crap.
a111: Logged on 2017-05-01 18:41 mircea_popescu: count for 100% just
as soon
as they stop telling themselves the 0% story to get to the slop like the rest of the pigs.
mircea_popescu: not exactly undoable, either, but not much of a priority
as we don't have yet a tmsr internet spec.
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
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: 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.
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."

☟︎ 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 ?
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: i admit that i still have this notion of "global internet" in my mind,
as a +ev thing.
mircea_popescu: there is no such thing
as "different fiats". the chinese made a usd-counerparty-fiat just for the purpose of insulating usg from their economy.
mircea_popescu: "count for 100% just
as soon
as they stop telling themselves the 0% story to get to the slop like the rest of the pigs."
Framedragger: asciilifeform: that's the more dramatic take on it; the other one is "most of linux powerusers are dirt poor, and there aren't many of them [and the companies which *run* on linux do not count
as part of the former group.]"

☟︎ Framedragger: asciilifeform: yeah, but they don't offer colo, at least upon initial glance. can send query, of course. but may
as well deal with their upstream DCs
mircea_popescu: "It is unfortunate that what was once a promising game with many contributors in the community has turned into a scam, but such
as it is."
mircea_popescu: Framedragger sane designs (such
as you know, mpex has been displaying since 2012 say) do not even care
as to what ip.
pete_dushenski: lol speaking of special interests going at each other, "She’s the Alternative for Germany’s new co-frontrunner despite a great divergence from the party’s typically conservative, xenophobic portrait. Alice Weidel, an openly gay economist, was nominated
as the anti-immigrant, far-right party’s chief candidate on Sunday, set to run alongside AfD co-founder Alexander Gauland in September’s federal
mircea_popescu: anyway,
as i said : i thought ~this~ is why computers even use binary in the first place.
mircea_popescu: ”The U.S. government decided today that because I did such a good job investigating the cyber-industrial complex, they’re now going to send me to investigate the prison-industrial complex,” he said, thanking the government for providing “free food, clothes and housing
as I seek to expose wrongdoing by the Bureau of Prisons officials and staff and otherwise report on news and culture in the world’s greatest prison sy
mircea_popescu: amusingly, england would have fared a lot better if it made a humble peace with germany cca 1939, than
as it did making a gaudy, and empty, alliance with the only true enemy of humanity, and human liberty.
mircea_popescu: that's the only practical point in all of this. yes england was a piece of shit slated for the garbage heap anyway, sure. but there can not be such a thing
as an ally of the us.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo all in all the first hundred aren't
as much of a lulz shower
as the first dozen seemed to imply huh.
pete_dushenski: lobbes: done. thx for making it easy! confirm that all's
as intended when you have a chance.
mircea_popescu: which is ~exactly representative an image,
as it happens.
mircea_popescu: pantsuit party is a very volatile hodge podge of single issue fascists ("gender rights", "Ecologists", radical black activists, some latino weirdos etc) and multi-issue socialists that used to masquerade
as "market oriented liberal capitalists" (the dudes who keep pushing the "science" narrative etc) and are now about
as confused wrt their identity
as dude trying to wear a suit on wall street by day and suck cock on knees in
mircea_popescu: (for the innocent : retezat is a hard mountain, dozen-ish groups are about the largest that can be sanely managed. to ensure things such
as you know, NOT STARTING AVALANCHES)
mircea_popescu: diana_coman in principle, sure. so far
as the matter stands, one man trained a bunch of record holders and the other man went around retezat in large groups. how the fuck even dare he take 51 persons over there ?
mircea_popescu: because no, random dork who's read all the tedx and reddit on the topic and intends to follow it by the letter is not thereby qualified to have an opinion on things and matters. which is what this catalin ioan berenghi schmuck strikes me
as.
diana_coman: then that's what I read there too that they were accused of that, yes; I don't know about the accusation
as such though
mircea_popescu: "Instead, the effort that could have been spent on securing the system was spent on public relations. The firm claimed that the attack could work only on our own copy of Fortress (in fact, it could work with any copy at all because it deduced the key from the data on the disk)." << from kochanski's (ancient) piece on comedy of commercial encryption software. the shamans still falling into same pits today, of course,
as seen

as he coincides with the State, which is the conscience and universal will of man in his historical existence.")
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-29#1649775 << come to think of it, this is rather remarkable a quote, enacting
as it is teh republic
as the ~only antifa available. "for the individual against the state and for the state only inasmuch
as it identifies with the individual"
☝︎ mircea_popescu: (the principal driver for large penii is female sluttery ; there is no such thing
as "the naiton of africa" and there's black or ~black people living from brazil to india. there's no homogenity of female sluttery in everyone's history and so...)
a111: Logged on 2017-04-28 23:21 asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: this was the hope, when usg tried to package lsd
as an artillery payload. 'ego dissolution'. didn't pan out.

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-28#1649528 << it is avoidable
as a matter of fact. i have by now built an item that is too complex to fit in my head. i call it $harem for convenience, but it's a set of girls who do things on the basis of rules which they were at some point in their girly youth illo tempore been beaten / screamed at for.
☝︎ phf: right, i figure
as much from reading cmucl's source code (which uses k.)
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> 'fortune 500' is approx
as interesting
as that other nomenklatura. << Hey, thanks to "Real World" cryptographers you too can walk the street wearing privacy invisible pants
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: this distinction hasn't been noted within individuals so much
as between them. same
as per this study afaict.
mircea_popescu: hey, i am not defending their contortions, i am speaking
as to fact.
mircea_popescu: well,
as conclusive
as it gets. see the gossipd design document comment section.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-23 21:44 asciilifeform: revocation is a ~promise~, in that there is not such a thing, and never will be such a thing,
as a magical lever that instantly makes a key stop working.
Framedragger: if scheme works
as it should, you get a signed message from bob and you know it's bob who sent it to you.
Framedragger: it's not an algo, i was referring to a possible fix of a further bad-thing that happens when key stolen. bad-thing is: once your key stolen, attacker (in that broken tox scheme) can impersonate
as *anyone* *to* you.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-28 21:25 Framedragger: ^ interesting thing re above, note, your key thief can impersonate anyone *to* you, not impersonate *
as you* - the latter is contained in "thief" and is unavoidable. but the former is avoidable.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: if your protocol is, for the sake of this argument, a state machine with about 150k states, and then the "framework" is a further state machine with about a half million or so states, your protocol framework escapes security
as a fundamental property of it.

as the case currency stands with regards to tox, the saddest thing about it is not its pos code, pos design (i think there are some attempts to have a design?), but that some arguably should-know-better smart people are sinking time into it
☝︎ trinque: danielpbarron: anyhow for now I request that you use deedbot
as something to check against, and not
as a CDN/archive.is
a111: Logged on 2017-04-28 17:50 Framedragger: actually interestingly, trilema.com also renders verdana here on firefox. but i think that ben_vulpes' site somehow managed to use "verdana italic"
as "regular verdana", which looked horribru. but i'm not sure what that even
mircea_popescu: trinque since we're on it, what do you take "lesbian"
as ?
trinque: danielpbarron: I always take "anarchist chick"
as "I have daddy problems omg look at me breaking the rules"
Framedragger: you can view <pre>
as a content/semantic tag, and 'style' would be 'shit in css'. i mean, if we truly believed in content/form separation on the web

☟︎ mircea_popescu: but it's exactly the same
as the rent market : yes, you sell more jujidgets but guess what ? so does everyone else. so now you HAVE TO sell more jujidgets.
BingoBoingo: That's
as a worshipper.
As a peddler of a particular juju, electricity helps to sell more jujidgets
mircea_popescu: to my shock the answer's not quite
as directly obvious
as one'd like.
