asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what did they come with , bk0010-style 'chiclet' ?
a111: Logged on 2017-11-03 15:53 asciilifeform: http://www.homecomputer.de/pages/easteurope_ro.html#cobra << hilariously and unsurprisingly, ro z80 clone had better keyboard than today's 3000+ $ crapbooks etc
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: was thinking in case someone wants to literally connect to pdp8 or other item that capped out under 115200
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i have nfi over what, iirc there were a few hundy btc in limbo
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: dunno, you seem pretty satisfied with that mechanical clock
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: i lusted and was finally cured when found one at scrap dealer
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: generous ? i'm hacking in cascadia!
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: wouldja believe, i got stopped at the border for extra helping of inspector fidgeting. guess why.
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski ( ben_vulpes ? other old-time crapplists ? ) ever saw open the battery on these ? what kind of cells ?
asciilifeform: in other pete_dushenski , asciilifeform issued pet a circa-2000 crappletop with os9 and no nic, she luvvs it
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: i then stand corrected : ran once, and then came back twice to fleece the incorrigible idjits ☟︎
pete_dushenski: i'm in ben_vulpes' neck of the woods more or less, sadly with bizniz to tend to and little opportunity to make house calls to trump's side of the border.

asciilifeform: diana_coman: anything that knows how to eat 115200baud,8,1,noparity -- will eat FG.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-26 15:03 mp_en_viaje: basically a novel vector of imperial attack seems to be this "let's take republican items and ~EXPAND~ the downstream so that siberian river attack is then feasible".
asciilifeform: FG will work with, e.g., pdp8, sov. bk0010, romanian z80 clone mircea_popescu played strip poker on, but apparently not with recent pc on recent centos...
asciilifeform: diana_coman: naive orc asciilifeform picked rs232, 1960s-era protocol, because he actually thought 'no one! will have to patch kernel', can you believe.
asciilifeform: this is addressed to all fg users, not diana_coman specifically.
asciilifeform: ^ pete_dushenski ( and other bbet nostalgiators )

asciilifeform: btw diana_coman didja ever solve the riddle re ubuntu ?
asciilifeform: e.g. pete_dushenski and his crapple usb
davout: mircea_popescu: say i start selling buttcoins, is it fraudulent if i source them elsewhere?

a111: Logged on 2017-11-03 12:07 mircea_popescu: "stuff that doesn't exist yet" in the sense of the milking of tomorrow when you own a cow is not "stuff that doesn't exist yet" in the sense of davout's isp that davout neither owns nor will but for 0 reasons feels within himself a swelling indicating that he's just as good as one who does, and therefore in a small manner, as if by contagion, he also will. because he "could".
a111: Logged on 2017-09-30 19:33 mircea_popescu: so after reich and slavski, stalin executed slansky, and malenkov beria to no longer bother him with the brush.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman reference to john bradford quote.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman aha! lol.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu> orcs are slow. <- from my personal experience this is actually a rather reliable empirical measure of how much someone groks reality as is; the analogy would be as to how far away they are from it, hence how much it takes for the "light" to travel aka them to see it; for some the splendours of Rome are visible only now so they still hold today's Rome to be the greatest thing; others are still seeing the Habsburg
mircea_popescu: !!pay diana_coman 1.475
asciilifeform: and plenty of folx knew. but it is exactly same picture as in mircea_popescu's 'vina batranilor'
a111: Logged on 2017-07-12 03:27 mircea_popescu: amusingly -- the chicken stealer (ro gainar, each language that saw them has its own word) is the lowest level of gypsy male qualification. a sort of transient baccalaureat if you will.

a111: Logged on 2017-11-03 12:14 mircea_popescu: the specific item here discussed is an EXACT rehash of say ttp://trilema.com/2012/and-another-one-bites-the-dust-bitmarketeu/#selection-55.0-57.87 ; which while 5 years old is nevertheless entirely identical ; which is the problem here -- that a specific sort of "mind" keeps making a specific sort of mistake. which is why all the discussions about http://trilema.com/2013/the-story-of-pointless-and-witless/ and so on and so fo
a111: Logged on 2017-11-03 12:08 mircea_popescu: yes futures exist, as a financial derivative. no the millenials' meat isn't worth money "because human rights and democrcy" ; nor has argentina's masfuturo a financiable value.
jurov: ben_vulpes: also http://explo.yt/post/2016/03/02/Wget-malignant-featuritis

mircea_popescu: diana_coman right.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, huh, not that clear in my text, is it; will update; specifically: with 12 iterations probability that M-R falsely returns prime on a non-prime is less than (1/4)^12
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: aha equiv to today's dud keys lol
a111: Logged on 2017-08-09 17:59 mircea_popescu: basically they had this early elliptic curve crypto, implemented as an arbitrary cone on which they wrapped a string. because the string is fixed length see, whereas the section of cone is not.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman is m-r upper-bounded by 1/4 ^ 12 ? or lower ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: hey, at least it beats bush's 'and i luvv to live in amerikka, where at least iknow i'm phreee!111'
apeloyee: fwiw pediwikia claims that Olivia is designed to resist multipath: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivia_MFSK#History
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'i keep bringing home parts but always get maxim!!' (tm)(r)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i find it worth noting that doppler reappeared immediately after asciilifeform unrated for inactivity
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there's lately a bacchanalia of 'totally not phuctor'ism, i only linked a few representative turds
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it is difficult to reason about 'was doing x to su +ev' -- sorta like you shoot a man, but he dies of fright first, and then ask whether bullet was wasted
a111: Logged on 2017-11-01 17:20 deedbot: asciilifeform unrated ascii_in_orcland.
asciilifeform: ( iirc mircea_popescu had a piece re subj )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: at the very least they will sit around mallocing for a good spell
asciilifeform: diana_coman: the folx with custom rsa-bruting silicon , i expect are pissing themselves as we speak
diana_coman: <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform no, i know. from the pov of rsa-being-attacked, it's probably better to have non-standard exponent than "everyone uses 65537" <- this
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i expect that you will find the expected 4:1 result then.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in ffa world, you don't lose anything by using a W-bit prime for the public exponent.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: cables also work well in another context: cuckolding. if you know what yer doing you can ride signal on top of , e.g., cable tv lines, or whatever derperies of the landscape
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it's spamology tho, not broken modem, generally there's some consistency neh
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i wrongly assumed you had fuckgoats output for exponent just same as for key
asciilifeform: defo apeloyee has better reading comprehension. i entirely missed the line where diana_coman clearly wrote, she used 65537
apeloyee: it's _encryption_ that's unreasonably fast, due to using 65537 as exponent
deedbot: mircea_popescu rated apeloyee 1 at 2017/09/20 22:18:33 << Makes alf re-read.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman do you have something idiotic like say ntp correcting your clock mid-stride maybe ?
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, so far the ~only part iffy is perhaps choice of timer basically
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: nobody yet knows.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Ah, ty.
diana_coman: so, changed those 2 lines to pkey.n = mpi_copy(skey->n) and pkey.e = mpi_copy(skey->e) ; correct?
asciilifeform: diana_coman: to rule out timer artifacts, can make item that, e.g., carries out 1,000 decrypts, timed with ordinary unix time cmd; then same where 1,000 encrypts
asciilifeform: diana_coman: quite a puzzler then: all of the most obvious mistakes, ruled out
asciilifeform: diana_coman: aite. you will notice that public_rsa mallocs if it finds that the output buffer is same as input
asciilifeform: mod6: what diana_coman has is as close as fathomable to a virginal gpg where you can still make such a test
asciilifeform: diana_coman: is out1 perchance ever equal to out2 ?
asciilifeform: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/clock_gettime.2.html theoretically
diana_coman: from the post: Durations are given as CPU time in seconds, as reported by the clock() function (time.h) and calculated as ( (double) (end – start) ) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC where end is the value returned by clock() right before starting the RSA operation and end() is the value returned by clock() right after returning from the RSA operation
asciilifeform: whereas declared as void public_rsa(MPI output, MPI input, RSA_public_key *pkey ) and void secret_rsa(MPI output, MPI input, RSA_secret_key *skey )
asciilifeform: because i see a public_rsa(out1, msg, &pkey) but then a secret_rsa( out2, out1, skey )
asciilifeform: diana_coman: didja actually verify the decryptions' equality to the original input to encrypt ?
diana_coman: mircea_popescu,I know it to be uber-fast in water; dunno on land; either way, never saw one in its habitat
BingoBoingo: diana_coman: I don't recall.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman crocodile is too fast for snake.
BingoBoingo: diana_coman: Immigrant snakes in Florida will die swallowing alligators, but haven't seen anything about crocs
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this tradition still lives, with the postcards
asciilifeform: ( i dun see any invocations of secret_rsa in there )
asciilifeform: diana_coman: this looks almost virginal, the oddity is prolly in wherever you invoke it
asciilifeform: ohai mircea_popescu !
asciilifeform: diana_coman: not only you have 100fold diff, but ~wrong direction~
deedbot: mircea_popescu voiced for 30 minutes.
BingoBoingo: !!up mircea_popescu
asciilifeform: diana_coman: do you have a disk access or some other oops in there, i wunder
diana_coman: hm, public rsa uses mpi_powm; secret rsa uses crc; still though 100 fold
asciilifeform: diana_coman: if you paste it i can prolly say immediately where.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: does it make sense why asciilifeform went 'wtf, backward' /
asciilifeform: now perhaps diana_coman replaced the thing with mpi_powm( output, input, skey->d, skey->n ) or equiv. -- but then speed of encrypt and decrypt ought to be ~equal~
mod6: diana_coman: nice write up!
