assbot: Logged on 31-07-2015 15:01:30; mircea_popescu: <gribble> Sent 57 minutes ago: <asciilifeform> dulap desperately needs to not be the only industrial-sized therealbitcoin node. phuctor is severely i/o starved << so help hanbot get it going.
assbot: Logged on 31-07-2015 01:09:04; asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i will point out that i have not been able to locate an elbrus, nor has, last i asked, mircea_popescu, nor anyone else i know
asciilifeform: re: yesterday's thread, i'm frankly surprised that mircea_popescu ~didn't~ buy the trunk line ☟︎
asciilifeform: folks dealing with mircea_popescu-style packet filtration problems and similar operations really ought to consider it.
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu dulap desperately needs to not be the only industrial-sized therealbitcoin node. phuctor is severely i/o starved.

assbot: Logged on 04-10-2013 15:21:32; mircea_popescu: i'm with asciilifeform's suggestion : that pps is prima facie evidence that the nsa is in fact currently decoding ALL traffic passing through all tor nodes, linking it to originating ips and storing this mess.

ascii_field: mircea_popescu: http://www.dbit.com/demo.html << it
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu pre-sale was 1337 - 2000 eth/btc, depending on timing
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu you'd be an even older old man by the time you went through a billion eth
ascii_field: mircea_popescu can short eth there
ascii_field: understand, the thing can work while being used only by mircea_popescu and five other similar fellas to 'hawala' at each other.
ascii_field: kakobrekla: see mircea_popescu's post re: elaine shi & co.

mircea_popescu: !s from:mircea_popescu ethereum bitcoin
ascii_field: mircea_popescu ought to contact his supplier and have a stern talk re: getting a higher grade of muppet shipped in
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: except that italy and spain did not get history-edited
shinohai: The scan checks out mircea_popescu
funkenstein_: mircea_popescu, good question. i spent a lot of time with the fluid mechanics volume back in the day.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field just the fact that it was probably determinable with great certainty at age 7 or so that i wouldn't grow up to be mircea_popescu << you think anyone actually wants more of me around ?

phf: mircea_popescu: 2014-03-27
trinque: mircea_popescu: yup
asciilifeform: this is, if anything, even more batshit than what mircea_popescu asked for
asciilifeform: i'm still waiting, incidentally, for mircea_popescu to tell me how to set the pogo clock without ntp
asciilifeform: (my isp won't like != 17 either. i will have to send these packets to mircea_popescu by camel.)
asciilifeform: with procol # != 17 because mircea_popescu hates 17
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if it's tcp, you are serving jam to folks for showing up
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what's on the cable ?
assbot: Logged on 30-07-2015 14:57:20; mircea_popescu: i find it kinda curious that asciilifeform and decimation can at the same time hold the discussion of political time we had recently in mind, and ALSO think breaking udp, or doing away with ntp is a bad idea.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu volunteers to shoot it, not realizing that the dog-kicker will kick every dog mircea_popescu ever bends to pet
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: not suggesting that everyone is to move to mordor and subscribe to this isp
asciilifeform: my isp clearly did not get defrauded in the same way as mircea_popescu's - because their six-figure machine does not as a result go down
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as decent as it gets (line saturation)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'm on a consumer fiber and, with modern hardware on my end (by no means six-figure), udp flood does not touch me.
asciilifeform: not as theoretical as mircea_popescu might think
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: but not udp?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: so then you get flooded with TCP SYNs. same difference.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you gotta understand the protocol stack.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: your machinery goes down even when you instruct it to drop all udp on the floor ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: very easy to filter: reject anything that isn't a valid gossipd packet addressed to your key
asciilifeform: it is relevant to having created this bizarre situation where mircea_popescu thinks that tcp somehow solves ANY of the problems discussed earlier
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: realize that udp ddoes only ever existed because the net is willing to route packets 'from victim's' machine to the idiot tv boxes, who 'answer' them
asciilifeform: the unfortunate place we're going to is where gossip packets can only be emitted, received, or routed by os that we personally issue; and will only travel on cables to and from mircea_popescu's house
asciilifeform: what i'd really like to see is what mircea_popescu proposes i use for single-packet auth that 1) isn't udp 2) existing net will reliably route 3) existing os will agree to emit without any new code running as root
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i haven't any notion as to ~why~
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: me restarting phuctor
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there was no legacy lockin in bitcoin !
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i see a difference of degree only
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ergo, for so long as anyone has the choice of '120v or hunt rats by candlelight', there will be 120v around
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu had 240 run to his flat ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i don't see this picture where it is absent in us but somehow present in patagonia
asciilifeform: this is different from 'i recommend that mircea_popescu filter all unsigned udp at his door'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the link concerned ~infrastructure~. usg is trying so that when i get my signed udp, and try to send it to mircea_popescu, it won't leave my street even.
asciilifeform: and i suppose i will write letters to mircea_popescu and spirit them out in the rectums of pig carcasses loaded onto the great sailing ships ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu prefers to be ddosed with tcp ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the thing about raw ip is that it typically requires os support
Azelphur: mircea_popescu: so fuck most VOIP services, Games, and anything else that requires low latency without packet delivery confirmation? XD
Azelphur: mircea_popescu: you realise UDP is essential for a number of services and that they wouldn't function using TCP, right?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: single-packet auth is the only gossipd worth using.
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu check it out, usg read the gossipd logs, and http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-07-2015#1217682 ☝︎
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu didja ever get your magic bitcoind synced again /
asciilifeform: so, at the risk of repeating myself, i gotta agree with mircea_popescu here and respectfully disagree with mod6
assbot: Logged on 30-07-2015 02:34:07; mircea_popescu: sure, not to date. but we're not going by the criteria of what is easy, so we don't really care. if we won't have success for the next decade we'll be here trying it in 2026.
assbot: Logged on 30-07-2015 01:50:12; mircea_popescu: "Note, this is pretty much contrary to what Ulrich Drepper reckons about static linking." << everywhere a gavin!
assbot: Logged on 30-07-2015 01:39:49; mircea_popescu: this "pure code" approach is no different from every other "pure research" proposition - sure, you're purely able to pursue pure goals now, but the cost is any conceivable relevancy.
assbot: Logged on 30-07-2015 01:39:10; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-07-2015#1217142 << doesn't have to be a one size fits all. but if your software can't be built, your software doesn't exist. and it is still upon you to explain how you expect users to use your thing - nobody is going to go do the guesswork of "what the author might have meant", and ESPECIALLY no sane person should ever guess what "obvious" means for anyone else
mod6: mircea_popescu: ok sure. can do.
mod6: but mircea_popescu makes sense.
mod6: mircea_popescu: wouldn't it be just fine if we don't ship a "stator.sh" or an "auto.sh" in the source and simply just maintain a cookbook and preferred steps like I was saying here: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-07-2015#1217135 ☝︎

hanbot: mircea_popescu with trumpets flatulant
jurov: mircea_popescu will arrange 20 virgins for you when you die or some such
phf: mircea_popescu: in the duct tape programmer spolsky used jamie zawinski, jwz, as his main example, and i think it's an odd, backhanded characterization, that's mainly there to drive a point about something that spolsky imagined
shinohai: I was just about to respond to the pic mircea_popescu posted. Such sanctimonious horseshit makes me sick.
phf: mircea_popescu: so the idea is to basically work as exchange, but with black market rate premium, whatever it is 30-40%, and a wider buy vs sell spread?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: cow is stupid. still learns to avoid the barbed wire
thestringpuller: <mircea_popescu> yo, can i use your thing to send misses_c a box o biscuits now ? << we do cookies...
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: cools the ardour of the enemy, cheaply
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: game-theoretical instrument
ascii_field: l0l! mircea_popescu has one ?
punkman: mircea_popescu: how much USD can one bring when entering .ar ?
ascii_field: i mean, when i visited i traded mircea_popescu a bit of usd for coin. how did he use them to put a small hole in 'peronism' ?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: how does bringing green pieces of paper from up north help bring down anyone ?
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Programming preferred, but anything that pays and I'm capable of, which I'd like to imagine is a fairly wide range of things
gabriel_laddel: 04:49:25 mircea_popescu: they should have held out for 55 billion. << lol

assbot: Logged on 31-05-2015 11:50:54; mircea_popescu: cazalla nah it's just, as the gulf between society and government widens, the ability of society to maintain social order decays. people start taking it upon themselves to provide for their own security, the most vulnerable groups (foreign language speaking, poor immigrants) overstot, which induces negative reactions in the public,
