mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if you look at
the 4kb
thing i published :
there's no actual contiguity. just fields of double FFs
mircea_popescu: anyway, i'm giving up on
this bs. gnupg 2.0 doesn't even exist, contrary
to nonsense noise on social media.
boolcrap1: I'm not sure im
that dedicated
to
trilema yet
mod6: yah,
this is just a
test box.
mod6: mircea_popescu: so, instead of doing all

the deps and installing
them.
mod6: ./.libs/libgcrypt.so: undefined reference
to `log_hexdump'
mod6: i can'gnupg-2.0.30
to build either

mircea_popescu: from autogen : "--with-gpg-error-prefix=@SYSROOT@" << what format does
that
take if not fucking path
mircea_popescu: you don't properly appreciate
the chain of braindamage.
mircea_popescu: fucking nightmare. so
the lib-error shit compiled, but obviously ./configure --with-libgpg-error-prefix="/home/mircea/gpg-2.0.30/libgpg-error-1.24/" does nothing, with or without quotes
mircea_popescu: is it going
to walk me one by one
through
the entire list of loserdom, lib"assuan" and whatnot ?
mircea_popescu: make: *** No
targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Good. You accepted Step 1. You are powerless over social media and all it does it eat your
time.
mircea_popescu: ah
that's what it was huh. standardization of diddling.
BingoBoingo: So is S.NSA going
to have a line item expense for alf.dope
this month?
BingoBoingo: ;;later

the best key produced by stock gpg is... wait for it... about 700 or so bits strong.
mircea_popescu: at it means

These essays and
this writing style are
tempting
to people outside
the subculture at hand because of
their engaging personal
tone and idiosyncratic, insider's view. But after a while, you begin
to notice
that all
the essays are an elaborate set of mirrors set up
to reflect different facets of
the author, in a big distributed act of participatory narcissism. "
mircea_popescu: I blame Eric Raymond and
to a lesser extent Dave Winer for bringing
this kind of schlock writing onto
the Internet. Raymond is
the original perpetrator of
the "what is a hacker?" essay, in which you quickly begin

mircea_popescu: oil painting replaced
tempera in 1400 ? hoily shit what.
mircea_popescu: also, i had never read
that dabblers and blowhards essay before, but good god is graham unfucking bearable AND ALSO remarkably undistinguishable from every other foss idiot, from o reilly
to who have you, if distilled like
that.
mod6: indeed. and
thank goodness for
that.
mircea_popescu: anyway, seems proper
tmsr-rsa will have
to come sooner rather
than later.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform also importantly, is it
the first 20 or
the last 20 ? he's claiming
the last 20.
mircea_popescu: seems prepasterous in
that such narrow space'd have been evident by now
mircea_popescu: situation : you go
to make key with stock gpg, set it
to 4096, ie 512 bytes. it makes you
the sign key with 512 entropy bytes,
then makes you
the encrypt key wirth
the remainder 68, and
that's it.
