gribble: Error: Something in there wasn't
a valid number.
gribble: Error: 'ln' is not
a defined function.
davout: dignork: as in 10% of the numbers above 2^1023 is
a prime?
dignork: davout: the space is huge: let's say you're looking for
a 2^1024 prime, which is not less than 2^1023, and roughly each 10th number is prime, you have ~2^1022 variants
davout: dignork: the global search space must be mind-boggling if the PRNG is relied upon to select
a search space that won't overlap with other search spaces from other known RSA keys
dignork: davout: if you mean finding primes for RSA, PRNG is only used to select
a search range
davout: and the fact that you can factor RSA keys if you find two that share
a prime makes me wonder whether we won't someday run out of usable ones
davout: i mean, there's only so much primes under
a certain boundary right
davout: there is something i always wondered, how is
a PRNG relevant to finding primes ?

a slave under the regime! don't make me suffer *more*!

ThickAsThieves: it's not like drugs are
a basic human right or some shit
BingoBoingo: The sports dope arms race has
a lulzy endgame though. Castrations because natural hormones aren't as good as the sports dope versions. Eventually an equilibrium occurs where either the people competing at the highest level have testacles or not.

mircea_popescu: i suppose i;m gonna end up having to write
a post about introductions. apparently it's completely lost on peeps that it makes absolutely zero sense to just start sputtering stuff as

a bay or something out in your backyard . . .~
chatquack: ~I was in heaven, I was in hell. Believe in neither, but fear them as well; This one's
a doctor, this one's

mircea_popescu: "Many Americans today, just as they did 200 years ago, feel burdened, stifled, and sometimes even oppressed by government that has grown too large, too bureaucratic, too wasteful, too unresponsive, too uncaring about people and their problems. I believe we can embark on
a new age of reform in this country and an era of national renewal, an era that will reorder the relationship between citizen and government."
mircea_popescu: "If all of this seems like
a great deal of trouble, think what's at stake. We are faced with the most evil enemy mankind has known in his long climb from the swamp to the stars. There can be no security anywhere in the free world if there is no fiscal and economic stability within the United States. Those who ask us to trade our freedom for the soup kitchen of the welfare state are architects of
a policy of accommodati

chatquack: And an ignition coil is
a big nast coil. It would probably fuse and short from
a local emp.
chatquack:
A mechanical injector pump is
a nifty machine.
chatquack: Ah yes... Starting it cold would be
a prob.
chatquack: If your ignition coil on
a gas engine goes out, you'd lose spark though I think.
ozbot: Why I think RMS is
a fanatic, and why that matters.

a chatquack: Anywho. I got intrested in bitcoin last ~april and have been consumed by it (along with any crypto). I'm

a coinchat exile. =D

a few hundredths of an inch thick and can float in the air like
a dense cloud.
BingoBoingo: To the best of my knowledge unuseful non-nuclear emp weapons are
a thing, but vastly surpassed by non-nuclear, non-emp weapons that simply scatter conductive fibers.

Vexual: get
a ham license b007

a thing as long as Prisoners of war take resources to hold
