mircea_popescu: it's not, but before we get there,
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform whyssat ?
mircea_popescu: lol check it out, the russian foreign service is quite active in the fringe of the us discourse. orlov, roberts, there's a list with these talking points.
mircea_popescu: "The American and Israeli trained and equipped Georgian army collapsed under Russian counterattack in 5 hours."
mircea_popescu: said every insane person ever.
mircea_popescu: oh, no, it's just that putin i mean roberts "does not understand how the world works"
mircea_popescu: von pappen
mircea_popescu: not rly quite as broad. it was one schmuck
mircea_popescu: fdr had scarcely the secessionist excuses of lincoln to fuck the country up. without his lame contribution, it'd have stayed in one piece, but perhaps may have survived the 21st century.
mircea_popescu: one can only wonder how the us would have fared had it not turned socialist in 1930.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform maybe that's cause for a rewrite.
mircea_popescu: hence hitler's constant suspicions of being betrayed by teh heer
mircea_popescu: especially in the army.
mircea_popescu: obviously since we're speaking of germany, an east european power par excellence, these were often the same people.
mircea_popescu: but as far as i recall, it was a serious source of friction between the third reich gauleiters and eastern european nobility, that the latter despised the former on the grounds of... well... this, exactly.
mircea_popescu: well paypal definitely can have problem.
mircea_popescu: it is the law.
mircea_popescu: several in the sense of .8
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla is this "fast food employee tries to parlay his work experience into a novel, because write what you know" ?
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller heating them is no good for them
mircea_popescu waves
mircea_popescu: "encrypt" your emails to everyone. it's good for the emails and ok for you!
mircea_popescu: im sure thiel will give 100k prizes to whoever came up with the brilliant idea of a wait, no. they don't need it.
mircea_popescu: heh.
mircea_popescu: more money.
mircea_popescu: s thrilled to do it.
mircea_popescu: he'
mircea_popescu: if he can get paid to listen to rsa keys buyt then for "technical reasons" can make that baloon 10x,
mircea_popescu: afaik that's exactly what he wants : to inflate the categories.
mircea_popescu: orly ?
mircea_popescu: exactly.
mircea_popescu: it's "for debugging purspoes"
mircea_popescu: that's nonsense. here's a simpler approach : every time a new value is loaded into sse register append it to a special buffer. buffer gets dumped in return for any packet headed so sent to port so.
mircea_popescu: in practice it's used as an aes hole. but yes. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i guess the author doesn't realise it or something, but this lays bare a much used, fundamental, very valuable exploit of aes.
mircea_popescu: good article.
mircea_popescu: -192 and AES-256 revealing the final round key provides 128 bits of key entropy.)
mircea_popescu: It gets worse. Nearly every AES implementation using AESNI will leave two values in registers: The final block of output, and the final round key. The final block of output isn't a problem for encryption operations — it is ciphertext, which we can assume has leaked anyway — but for encryption an AES-128 key can be computed from the final round key, and for decryption the final round key is the AES-128 key. (For AES ☟︎
mircea_popescu: more properly, "was at some ptoint compiled locally"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i think you're thinking of the case where you compile your thing and install it as bytecode. i was thinking of the case where you compile locally.
mircea_popescu: jurov the discussion was as to how often they get overwritten
mircea_popescu: you don;'t know what it does.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform "no one" ? yes, one. the machine may force you to whether you want to or not.
mircea_popescu: jurov im pretty sure it all does, but they don';t all have to be xmm via aesni
mircea_popescu: but this is universal, nothing to do with ms.
mircea_popescu: i wasn't aware this is public knowledge. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: one of the best reasons to not use aes seriously.
mircea_popescu: Consider the "XMM" registers on the x86 architecture: They will only be used by the SSE family of instructions, which is not widely used in most applications — so once a value is stored in one of those registers, it may remain there for a long time. One of the rare instances those registers are used by cryptographic code, however, is for AES computations, using the "AESNI" instruction set.
mircea_popescu: but ideally - while i can live without running a webserver off this - i still want to have bash
mircea_popescu: bjt kd
mircea_popescu: yeah, that may be a good starting point
mircea_popescu: the no-raw-machine/
mircea_popescu: jurov no. i am talking about an os that only processes encrypted data.
mircea_popescu: in principle you should be able to define an object whose malleability allows enough functions to work so as to be turing-complete.
mircea_popescu: it's an unresolved problem for good reason eh.
mircea_popescu: even should he saw it open.
mircea_popescu: as an obvious definition.
mircea_popescu: one that can start/stop it.
mircea_popescu: this includes any and all superusrs.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes. ie, that you can cryptographically verify that no other user can read your space, ever, at all.
mircea_popescu: how to make an os that behaves "provalby fair", for that matter, ios still very much an open question
mircea_popescu: the problem is unresolvable : without cryptographically verified multi-user ability, there is no way to run crypto on shared system.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the os may not respect volatile.
mircea_popescu: "decided to sanitize his stack by zeroing until he triggered a page fault" this in particular does nothing.
mircea_popescu: i don't read fast enough.
mircea_popescu: i came back to say "wait, that's only part of the story"
mircea_popescu: clearly you're tuned for machinery and she's tuned to babies.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform thus doctor - doctorita. literally, little-she doctor.
mircea_popescu: cazalla good mornin'.
mircea_popescu: in romanian comedienne is formed as the diminutive. comediette.
mircea_popescu: how diminutives work. victoria - victorица
mircea_popescu: tractoritza lol. that's exactly how you'd say it in romanian.
mircea_popescu: lol
mircea_popescu: something of which mice are malignantly made the figurehead of. they are not.
mircea_popescu: no, dope doesn't enter into it. all that's required is the proposition that surviving today is more important than living well.
mircea_popescu: except the romanian "intellectuals" and for that matter the zeks got no dope.
mircea_popescu: and of course, the definitive words on that topic, http://trilema.com/2010/vina-batranilor/
mircea_popescu: ;;google "rezistenta prin cultura"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you will notice that he could have just resisted the glass jar through culture.
mircea_popescu: the last set being in egypt for crying out loud.
mircea_popescu: you know, this was the first mice i've seen in a decade.
mircea_popescu: lol
mircea_popescu: "problems" ?
mircea_popescu: usg makes mechanical spy rat, person catches it because well, it doesn't properly batallion
mircea_popescu: lol this here is the premise of a decent speculative spy fiction story
mircea_popescu: i thought it's just the young/shitty ones
mircea_popescu: mice i mean.
mircea_popescu: mebbe your rats were overfed
mircea_popescu: lol
mircea_popescu: well sure, but this was as to the general
mircea_popescu: when they start with the "we're not animals" bits, i tend to glaze over and think "no, you're not, are you".
mircea_popescu: it's also why i tend to be suspicious of people that despise animals. generally it's the sign they're not as intellectually respectable as the average field mouse.
mircea_popescu: die on the road, it's a noble death.
mircea_popescu: so : let them fucking die trying. you can't live where you are ? walk to where you can live.
mircea_popescu: now - the point here being that a correct set of priorities will in fact move mountains, and my work at my computer as compared in any perspective to a mouse's activities is mountaineous.
mircea_popescu: which is why i eventually stood up from my fucking work, took it to a vacant field further down and let it be.
mircea_popescu: the animal's desire of freedom properly surpassed any consideration of self preservation.
mircea_popescu: and it never stopped.
mircea_popescu: instead, it kept trying to chew sheet metal with it's truely tiny, half mm in width teeth.
mircea_popescu: so it stopped jumping.
