pankkake: anyway, the tor list of isps is
a good source even if you don't care for TOR
pankkake: for the same price you can probably get
a dedicated server now
mircea_popescu: Arvixe (hosting) Openly and respectfully state that while they dont permit
a TOR exit on shared hosting accounts, you are very welcome to run one on
a VPS account.
pankkake: I'm running
a relay on an EDIS node
Vexual: yeah im saving up for
a new computer
Vexual: can i get
a 9 pin plug instread of usb? :)
mircea_popescu: because this isn't
a cool thing, this is
a useful thing.
mircea_popescu: the definitive protection to this is
a) don't lose physical control of the stick and b) destroy the slate.
mircea_popescu: if you have physical control of the stick, you can remove the working slate, but still can't read it, because it has
a cypher.
pankkake: and the worst thing is, it's not
a big deal to fix. there is no reason to start going all like "it's not
a problem"
mircea_popescu: hardly
a goal. but anyway, let's go throuigh the thing to make sure we're all on the same page, har har.
pankkake: again, if your product has no instand erase of its decrypted contents, it loses
a great deal of attractivity - telling users they have to shred themselves is far away from the goal of having an easy secure device
pankkake: "I don't know" is
a better answer than "it's fine" when it's not
mircea_popescu: jurov there's
a lot of sales copy there but i dunno how it's supposed to work/be implemented.
Vexual: nice. i couldnt think of
a suitable h
mircea_popescu: the product is fine. you have an issue being somehow convinced you can design stuff while simultaneously not having
a clue what rom is.
mircea_popescu: it does. if you are concerned about this point, copy
a file repeatedly until the bits die, and so then it won't be.
pankkake: jurov: there is actually
a better way: use
a one-time-encryption key for the filesystem. each time you reboot it, it is effectively erased
mircea_popescu: consequently, you can trash the bits yourself by repeatedly copying/deleting
a file to it.
mircea_popescu: so as to rpotect from
a variety of snooping techniques such as diff analysis from the host.
mircea_popescu: pankkake maybe, but it'd be
a diff product. this one separates itself from computer when touching the key,
mircea_popescu: jurov well hopefully it has
a 8gb slate, it puts it right there
pankkake: and I don't think you can do that with
a filesystem
pankkake: it would have to work in
a "streaming" way
pankkake: how would it work, to encrypt
a, say, 4 GB file?
mircea_popescu: pankkake yeah the idea is, you can make
a simple bash script to backup sites
Vexual: add
a discharge cap to smoke the usb hub just for fun
jurov: asciilifeform: you have not considered adding
a display? it's the thing i like about trezor
pankkake: well, I get the point of the device, but no backup is
a dealbreaker for me
mircea_popescu: as best i can see the smartcard is
a sort of fun and games project, let's play with smartcards. it doesn't have the critical features such as separation of key from slate.
Vexual: will the girlfriend christmas package include lingerie, your email and
a digital camera?
mircea_popescu: curious if anyone ran
a knc thing for more than
a week or so by now
bitesak: precisely, I was speaking about GPG with my gf and this would be
a good christmas gift
pankkake: at least it wasn't
a whale taking
a dump
Vexual: not
a mexican, just
a rich dude with
a tan
jborkl: I wonder why it is 3 white dudes and one mexican dude mining at
a chinese pool?
mircea_popescu: bitesak they shall be assembled at
a secret & undisclosed set of locartions
Vexual:
a thin lead case perhaps, so one can be sure it's in ones pocket
mircea_popescu: in principle you could design your garage door/house door to take
a usb stick
mike_c: still..
a straight up better replacement for securID?
mircea_popescu: this is
a frontline itam. you go into enemy territory with it.
kakobrekla: yeah its
a serious device for serious security but its so serious you cant have backups and so its not usable for serious stuff.
mircea_popescu: anyway, we'll get
a better idea as to how reliable the things are after they've been in the wild
a year or two. atm all i can say is they should be pretty reliable.
mircea_popescu: well yes, using
a device of this type for that purpose seems like you're asking for trouble.
Namworld: If the cardano breaks, you're out of shares and need to pay for
a new account.
mircea_popescu: it can be, sure, but if you don't trust it you can just use it as
a sub to your main key which you keep traditionally.
mircea_popescu: Namworld master doesn't have to be
a cardano necessarily.
kakobrekla: my copy is on paper and on
a safe place
mircea_popescu: i think the better solution is to use
a master and sign
a cardano for the move.
Namworld: So he can keep using it/store it/transfer it to
a replacement device
Kleeck_: The USG is spending more money trying to prove that the "shutdown" is
a big deal.
jborkl: Off to the store to hopefully find one that isn't an arm and
a leg on such short notice."
ThickAsThieves: you'll get
a kick out of the headshots for the vegas conference
pankkake: wait they have
a job offer for
a third "founder and c?o" lol
ThickAsThieves: it's
a tricky area, as i myself have been in
a position before of having profitable things i no longer wanted
zoinky: that site brings in 2k
a month?
ThickAsThieves: we've been working hard behind the scenes to legitimize our role into
a real bitcoin investment bank
ThickAsThieves: so now that we caught up on processing all the migration data, we encountered
a technical limitation with Bitfunder and we will have to require ALL TAT.ASICMINER migrators from BTCT to resubmit their info using
a Havelock account
nubbins`: only two funds have
a 7-day volume > 100 btc
_mjoiii: No no not me, I've been w Havelock all along and happy to have
a Canadian option. Just can't buy or sell much without affecting prices.
_mjoiii: Anyone know of
a method for tracking the transfers to Havelock?
bitesak: easydns claims to be
a NSA-Free Zone :) and actually seems to be standing up to this farce
nubbins`: bitcoin is
a pretty large concept
