the message.
mircea_popescu: right. which is what i'm saying : if you're into ditching snake oil, you'll have

mircea_popescu: that's what aes did
to
try and escape "oh it's just maff", "fine we'll implement control structures".
mircea_popescu: just saying, it's going

turn any encrypted
text into ~any
text you wish it
to be
mircea_popescu: select a, b and c and
take N=(a + sqrt(b)) / c so
that N > 1 ; N < 2. for any message M, deflate, crc and split it up in
two fragments a b so
that neither is larger
than 2/3 of M ;
to encrypt calculate a^N*b ; b^N*a and pass
those.
mircea_popescu: "well... all my friends are gone...i'm so lonely... listen, why don't you bring
them back
to me ?"
mircea_popescu: so you know, one goes back

mircea_popescu: and
the genie's all "of all
the dumb fucks wandering in here ever since
the injuns figured out how
to half'n'half a buffalo, you're easiest
the dumbest fucks"
mircea_popescu: so a coupla hours later
they're fucking stranded, and about
to die, when
this genie shows up
mircea_popescu: except
they're all old and inept and ineffectual,
they
take
this "suv"
that's really running on a qcw-50 engine and
take no water and whatever.
mircea_popescu: and eventually
they decide
to go for a ride in
the desert
mircea_popescu: so
they keep you know, fucking around,
telling each other stories from back in
their respective days
mircea_popescu: there's an ex-kgb ex-plutocrat dude ;
there's an ex-yale ex-vc dude ;
there's
this dude used
to run arms for rice in somalia ; and finally
there's a rapper dude.
mircea_popescu: so
there's a bunch of various people gangsta as fuck at

the sports he could do so well. When asked what he would like, he made one simple request. “I would like a box of

the son replied, “Oh boy, I would like so many
things. Maybe a bicycle, or new skis, or skin diving equipment. I wish I would have
them all, but any one would make me happy.”
