mircea_popescu: the idea is just for (q-1)(p-1) and e to be relatively prime
mircea_popescu: eh fuck it, usgavin promised us 100% increases each year for the next 200 years
mircea_popescu: afaik it's only used because easy to compute, two 1's merged into a word
mircea_popescu: you telling me the rsa e must be a fermat prime ? why ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform 65537 is not a mersenne prime either. what did i step into ?
mircea_popescu: yeah google, always put wikipedia the fucking first line, because i'm sure that's what the "algorithm" says.
mircea_popescu: jurov oh yeah, i wasn't commenting on your implementation, i was just bitching at the stars.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally, know of any rng process to compute fixed count onbits random numbers ?
mircea_popescu: i wasn't talking about the cardano! i was talking about the new pgp
mircea_popescu: also doing away with the 65537 static and instead using any 64bit integer with exactly 32 on bits would be better.
mircea_popescu: so no, it won't imperil them, it will just make the peril obvious
mircea_popescu: i feel so bad forcing inconvenient change upon random people.
mircea_popescu: so that means those toolchains will have to change or die ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, thgis is more an aesthetic consideratyion. ditching symmetric cyphers is the more substantial thing, and since a reimplementation happenes, might as well add aesthetics.
mircea_popescu: shit son. if only i knew about this, we could have made diff design changes on bitcoin core.
mircea_popescu: and again, armored. nothing but letters and digits in there. not even +/ etc.
mircea_popescu: proggy gets 65kb file, cuts 16k off its end recursively, spits out 1kb of text signed by 4 people
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform obviously, since fixed length, it can go back to the end of the file.
mircea_popescu: much simpler machines to work it if it knows a straight offset
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic not considered read, but weak digest. good idea to upgrade.
mircea_popescu: file is defined as, 256bytes + "##### The following is signed above :"+message.
mircea_popescu: add to that a fixed-offset clearsigned thing, all of a sudden there's good reason to implement
mircea_popescu: you know, thinking about this, i think i actyally want pgp reimplemented. usgavin's speshul maths about how things improve make me realise that having a pure rsa based code rather than the current encode a symmetric chypher method is perhaps feasible.
mircea_popescu: clearsigned file, always 16kb long, after which the signed matter begins
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: ideally, we'd have a patch and a collection of detached sigs of the plain ascii of the patch <<< detached sigs are in fact a reimplementation of the old punch cards
mircea_popescu: Not found: '/raw_bundles/17/171BanmCMde84Zr28Z4EsCzXw4nGZdfPaG.rbundle'
mircea_popescu: hanbot: haha! where are the burning man btc gizmos anyway, i want a bitonkadonk << wait, i thought you... HAD ONE
mircea_popescu: then people can be really secure built from the ground up by running a coupla vms on the same machine :D
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: there's your mechanism, there. << gotta say the configurable with loopback approach is actually not bad
mircea_popescu: *: asciilifeform can't really picture woman playing this game << dude you were in a different ukraine or what ? i have yet to meet a uk chick that doesn't drink.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: master of anything, will have some fucked up organ. << master pimp.
mircea_popescu: Monthly Uniques 747 US 1.4K Global | This site reaches over 1,169 monthly people, of which 619 (53%) are in the U.S. <<< numbers, right ? why would they need to match.
mircea_popescu: until one day he falls in love with the hooker, leaves with her. that does it.,
mircea_popescu: determined guy wants to end christianity in the present, builds time machine
