mircea_popescu: "People dance
tango at a structured event called a milonga (the word can also apply
to
the dance hall itself, or
to a
two-beat older form of
tango music),
the only social setting in Argentina where you must fetch your own drinks and empanadas at a bar rather
than waiting for
table service." <<< ahaha fucking bs. as erryone can attest, you get
table service.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, anyone recall
the video for "amazing" ? with all
teh advanced
technologies!!!
mircea_popescu: the only
thing "i want more
than 4096" says is "my crypto is broken". so fix it, don't make
the broken longer.
mircea_popescu: and honestly, if you need a larger key
than 4096 you should just pick a different crypto system.
mircea_popescu: trinque ok, but naming is one
thing. if
the us presidential inauguration consisted of smoking pipe and dancing around in bear costumes, it'd be similar
to
these fuckers.
trinque: I'm sure
they appreciate it
mircea_popescu: in other news, girl now knows how
to make pickled ginger. fucking hell it's nice
to be delivered of
the benzoate ladden supermarket stuff.
trinque: usa killed off however many
tribes,
then named states, cities, damned everything after
them
mircea_popescu: fucking epic case of "i came for
the waters" "but
this is
the desert" "i was misinformed"
mircea_popescu: take
that, white supremacists everywhere : all white argentina is as bad as an all-fungus erection. i came here for
the all-black argentina and didn't even know it at
the
time ;/
mircea_popescu: either
they were
too bad
to live or
they werent for chrissakes.
mircea_popescu: in any case : if you're going
to genocide an entire fucking skin
tone, do me
the general courtesy and don't
turn around dressed in a plush costume of
their dance.
mircea_popescu: today
there's maybe fifty black dudes in all 10mn of buenos aires, and
they came in
the past decade from spanish speaking ex african colonies.
mircea_popescu: ng new york italians cca 1880
that
they're best fighters and sending
them into
the ozarks.)
mircea_popescu: oh btw, re
tango : it is a living
testament
to
the ignorant, molasses-thick hypocrisy of
these people
that
they regard
tango as "their national heritage", when
tango was invented and developed by BLACK DUDES. who
then got a little bit of genocide, deliverately (argentina declared war with peru,
told black people
they make better fighters, sent
them
to fight, got
them exterminated by
the mountain folk.
this is not unlike
telli
trinque: fucker,
texas gets rolling early, gets jacked on stimulants and has half
the world drilled for oil by lunch
trinque: guy on IRC elsewhere was earlier expressing his amazement
that I could find a coffee shop at 7am
mircea_popescu: trinque
the stupid shit stupid people come up with is squarely not even, up until you get
to hang out with
them
trinque: hoping no customers will interrupt
their nap
mircea_popescu: oft
the scene plays out as
the guy frantically runs
to unlock
the door just as mp is jew-waving him and
turning.
mircea_popescu: though
the effects are not : mp routinely refuses
to
trade with local idiots who lock
their shops.
mircea_popescu: anyway, "San
Telmo is a
tango-rich environment and
there are many studios advertising instruction, but
this one seemed
the most accessible for someone with social anxiety.
There were no buzzers
to ring, stairs
to climb, or windowless doors
to knock on." <<
the difference of style is palpable.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: hmm maybe but i don't
think so - i
think he lived / spent some
time
there in
the past
mircea_popescu: that my freedom requires
the ability
to send paul graham
to his room without supper does not show
that same freedom requires my ability
to send Maciej Cegłowski. hes doing fine
Framedragger: ^
true, i guess; and political control over idiots is not a de facto given at all, so, sure, problem.
trinque: ah well,
there's a lot of
them around so far.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's altogether unclear how much political control over others is required for individual freedom. certainly political control OVER IDIOTS, which includes small children, as well as all
the adults with
the mind of a small child.
trinque: ^^ output of
trinque's digested youthful anarchism
mircea_popescu: Framedragger ahahahaha
that lead pic is epic. might even be new screensaver.
trinque: not much sad about it;
that one person might be free if he achieves it does not mean all are capable of
this. further, individual freedom requires having political control of others.
mircea_popescu: (why 0x010001 ? yes, it's a magic number. but it has magic reasons : 1) it is prime ; 2) it is
the fastest multiplication on a 64 bit machine, because it's just a concatenation ; 3) could make it even longer by
the same process, but
that has a significant impact on speed with no visible security benefit. so it's magic for a god damned reason.)
a111: Logged on 2016-08-17 17:20 Framedragger: mircea_popescu: just
to me, any dreams of "global anarchist revolt" *are* lost on me (i'm
terribly naive but not *that* naive). personal responsibility and individualism (vague word, i know) are necessary conditions. and.. yeah, i don't have much hope for humanity, given
that...
trinque: Framedragger: among other reasons anarchism is not a
thing,
this.
mircea_popescu: LET ALONE people with pretensions as
to a life of
the mind.
mircea_popescu: trinque
that'd be factual. but while
the process is excusable in
toddlers and sexually undiferentiated children, it is unacceptable in menstruating women / bois over 16 or so.
mircea_popescu: all
these bullshit knobs attached
to nothing / nothing useful / nothing important, while
the ACTUAL important parts aren't exposed.
trinque: makes me suspect
that reflecting upon one's actions evolved much later
than
this mindless imitation of what didn't kill some other guy *today*, and
that most walkers entirely lack
the former.
mircea_popescu: oh and also asciilifeform : e not
to be provided by user.
tmsr-rsa uses 0x010001 and
that's
that.
trinque: buddy of mine had a
twatter somewhere listing
the various open sores curl-to-sudos
Framedragger: only one last step was left!!! just need
to.. patch.. it's legit guyz
PeterL: Framedragger you forgot
to put sudo at
the beginning
mircea_popescu: bitches should be beaten with eulora compile process until
their mucosa bleed cow's milk.
PeterL: well, didn't work on mine, I had
to grab an older version
mircea_popescu: Framedragger
this bs just can't fucking stand, how someone can sleep at night
thinking "hey, i'm a maintainer!" atop
THAT codebase is anyone's guess.
PeterL eager awaits our savior asciilifeform
to bring forth *something better*
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: yeah, i'm actually felling a bit of
that constructive mp-rage
towards gnupg. by god it should be kicked and replaced as soon as possible
mircea_popescu: there's a pile of incidental nonsense (such as min length for name but not password hurr ; such as 2.0.30 current doesn't even fucking compile, such as etc)
that shouldn't disappear under "oh, mpi"
trinque grabs coffee and heads
to logs
mircea_popescu: yest log is a grim
testament of just how little faith republic has in gnupg, and for
that matter gnu/foss generally.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger well he got a little excited. but
the original observation was pretty scary, which is what got every hand on deck following along (me, mod6 etc)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform sha512 and cut
to be defined by user ; with
the caveat
that if
they don't produce a min of 258 bytes / 257 258 bytes user is
taking life in his own hands. we provide defaults (keccak , "take first nth bytes" respectrively). key size NOT
to be defined by user ;
tmsr-rsa keys are al 515 bytes long.
Framedragger: is
that why alf was calling himself and others idiots (or what was
the word)
mircea_popescu: Framedragger you realise it
turned out
to be a datastruct artefact yes /
Framedragger: (i'll go
thru
them myself, interesting stuff..)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform since we're on
this btw,
the way i want
tmsr-rsa key generation
to work is as follows : a contains a number of entropy bytes specified by user in
tmsr-rsa.conf read whenever
tmsr-rsa.conf specifies (such as urandom); b contains a base-tmsr string specified by user. c = base-tmsr(a).b ; p = nextprime(cut(sha512(c),257)) ; process is repeated for q = nextprime (cut(sha512(c'),258));
☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎ mats: 'Finally caught,
two decades later, he characteristically is neither willing
to admit, nor dessist from
the practice.' << i
think you mean desist
mod6: mine is showing like
that so far
too
mircea_popescu: oh i c. so basically,
the seed is put into "get next prime" and
the difference is liable
to be ~the last 3-4 hexdigits
