mircea_popescu: mats_cd03: what is the origin of this 'power rangers' nick? << hours after the fork gavin & hearn brought upon the network through their alleged ineptitude (which allegation i don't credit, it was deliberate)
mircea_popescu: ie, "are or are you not reachable through some node somewhere that doesn't think you're a total waste of biological matter."
mircea_popescu: it WOULD give the old re-routability properties of the web a lot of value again.
mircea_popescu: only if every router out there actually implements this scheduling
mircea_popescu: right. but follow through = exactly what you'd expect, if redmond ran things.
mircea_popescu: the fucking networking widget should instal and run without netbase, and do everything including populate the fucking fields and drawing the graphs.
mircea_popescu: and a simple "not all dependencies found, exiting" is not good enough.
mircea_popescu: "your program must work whether any or all the dependencies exist on the syste"
mircea_popescu: there must also somehow be added in there a "no dependencies" rule, somehow.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in any case, my original change to github and generally the mangement of open source codebase of "add a read by X" field is not actually enough.
mircea_popescu: just like there's no punishment for the anon derp hiding behind "contributed a patch to openssh"
mircea_popescu: because there is no punishment for the anon derp hiding behind "From: cve-assign () mitre org"
mircea_popescu: right, those same resources that are drained away with crafted bullshit like this, a million different places.
mircea_popescu: and so you know, to quote pankkake, "So, we'll see if the end-users actually want to commit resources on not using systemd."
mircea_popescu: and you know, talk abut "do-ocracy". the fake do-ocracy of they firing out syn packets and then closing the socket.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile the attackers can just keep right on firing packets
mircea_popescu: and the usg wins anwyay, for the exact reason spam works : those five people were tied up for the five minutes they took to write and the however many it took them to consider all the angles.
mircea_popescu: then 5 different names have to waste the time out of their day, come in and say yo fuckwits!
mircea_popescu: such bright future with the bright kids the fucktarded "progressive" generation spawned. they've tried and therefore nobody should criticize them! touch the screen now! Change the world! revolutionize the tubes! 2.0!
mircea_popescu: in five years people will be asking me why they can't load qntra and instead of pointing to braindamaged "code is poetry" wordpress version 1-4, i'll point at braindamaged "code is poetry" wordpress versions 1-28, AND at systemd "hey, you can talk directly to the dns resolver, because it's on a fixed port, and the legit server can't even race you because it is standards compliant and waits while you rape the stack.
mircea_popescu: why not just put it in journal binary files with the core dumps!!1
mircea_popescu: later in that thread, "(This systemd component is optional, I strongly recommend not to ship it. It's not even possible right now to dump the cache contents to debug such issues.)"
mircea_popescu: holy shit is there something that's done right in systemd?
mircea_popescu: sees the query from victims upstream DNS, but since systemd-resolved also uses fix
mircea_popescu: "The attacker would need to guess the source port of the origin since he only

mircea_popescu: dude that bitcoin-assets bash is like the best site on the interne.t
mircea_popescu: <Vexual> I'm no expert, I suppose they're all stuying polotics and stuff << they totally are. about 3/4 of my class in college was actual hos.
mircea_popescu: but this "in romania" discussion is entirely besides the point, not like she can't just as well do it in switzerland or luxemburg or w/e.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in bucharest probably a one room studio and buttermilk.

mircea_popescu: romanian press : "wow, find out how much alina eremia makes working for romanian tv!!!" "alina eremia paid kingly-ly for role in tv!!!11" "find out here..." etc.
mircea_popescu: maybe 15yo me speaking through my voice. but what i recall was "o noes, memory mapping"
mircea_popescu: jesus they had some incredible "mystery code" back then, cuz you never really knew what's being addressed how.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform is this the real that was address-ambiguous, which is how 286 "protected" mode came about ?
mircea_popescu: so you could read a portion in front from two diff places
mircea_popescu: wait, is this the thing which ambiguously allocated a part of the pages
mircea_popescu: "real mode", in the following sense : just like you have ints and floats, ie, reals, ie, two ints bundled together one playing mantissa
mircea_popescu: people easily forget that the "two byte year" comes from a time when they also had a 20 byte bus

mircea_popescu: cazalla: Belxjander: added this channel to my bouncer <<< i remember doing this, thinking to myself.. which bitcoin channels represent me as a person <<< o.O
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: anyone who creates a gizmo which depends on shitstemd - has asked to share the fate. << the practical problem with this is that bayesian filtering only works for as long as it stays small.
