asciilifeform: but i specifically refuse'em because NOT ORTHOGONAL, they don't belong as part of a general-purpose numbertheoretical minimal 'crypto lego set'.
mircea_popescu: so in the end what was it, http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-12#1713104 or http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-12#1713161 ? cuz i don't expect it can be both dubious and well known at the same time. ☝︎☝︎
asciilifeform: ( i promise i have nfi how to do it. just like i don't know how to make 2+2=5 )
mircea_popescu: but whatever, i don't mind making money out of mit's "blockchain of the future", like i didn't mind fleecing "ripple" or cashing btc crash. free bitcoin will continue for as long as usg can draw breath, i'm not against. let them lose what they can't invest.
rothbart: asciilifeform - cheers. I read the article about the Cardano, but don't see it on NSA site?
mircea_popescu: and y'all have to thank bb for mentioning this, because i don't take iron to the wood so to speak.
mircea_popescu: there's a substantial difference between "i don't like this" and "this doesn't compare favourably to rando coworker's item". these two can never mix. this isn't sophistry, but plain sense.
PeterL: now I am wondering, what else does my keyboard have that I never use because I don't even notice it?
mircea_popescu: non-a is "threatening" aka "i don't understand what mp says!!!" ; non-b is "unreal".
mircea_popescu: and i don't just mean scientific, or imagological baiting. pantsuit.comedy ie "speak truth to power" is supposed to be all about an insufficient monkey goading the closest thing to a lion that could be found. i dunno why they're so fascinated with the pointless nonsense (aside the obvious anal children reference, ofcouars)
mod6: have to use Interfaces.C to exec gpg and things. which, I don't love. but eventually, will need to be rebuilt to work with 'p'.
mod6: this started about a hear ago where i think they just figured "if we don't ship with ssh, then they'll just go back to using rlogin"

a111: Logged on 2016-12-21 18:32 mircea_popescu: because no, words don't "have meanings". your meanings for ANY WORD are a function of ALL THE OTHER WORDS YOU KNOW. which is why my definitions regularily blow out english dictionaries, wikipedia and other sources of "wisdom" out of the water - i know more words, and in this knowledge i know all the words i know ~better~. infinitely and irreproducibly so.
mircea_popescu: a fine example in that very same paragraph : "I don't expect I've done" is very much different from the "plain english" "equivalent" "I don't think I've done" : as there is no relation between expectation and reality, saying "i don't expect i've done" is a perfectly fine sendoff on a masterpiece. not same in the case of the latter
trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-04#1710704 << hm, don't think I've modified that for deedbot; how'd I be getting around it? that said, stripping the nonsense if present sounds like a sane patch. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i don't think it was ever big enough for that.
trinque: the thought re OTP is if I don't force people to verify one, I'm letting allcomers generate "chosen-plaintext" for a particular key
mircea_popescu: this perennial "i don't understand why computer costs money, i got mine at walmart" and "hey, i daydream things all day long, why should there be a difference when actual items are involved" isn't going to be engaged on an equal basis.
mircea_popescu: what is this, "i'ma be lazy and please don't think it means i'm stupid" ?
mircea_popescu: i don't get your reasoning. man has a blog, what privacy is here involved ?
mircea_popescu: "why that stupid and not me ? i'm fabulous ?" "yes, but you correctly evaluate yourself to be stupid ; and incorrectly evaluate what you don't understand about him to be similar-stupid, which it is not."
mircea_popescu: and meanwhile in #eulora lulz : <kisspunch> i don't know what the shit any of this is <mircea_popescu> yeah, there's A LOT you don't know. <kisspunch> mircea_popescu: fuck you and your ecosystem
a111: Logged on 2015-11-16 21:01 ascii_field: BingoBoingo: 'I didn't know that,' I said. 'No one knows everything,' he said. 'Did you know,' he said, 'that until almost this very moment nothing would have delighted me more than to prove that you were a spy, to see you shot?' 'No,' I said. 'And do you know why I don't care now if you were a spy or not?' he said. 'You could tell me now that you were a spy, and we would go on talking calmly, just as we're talking now. I
kanzure: i don't know man
kanzure: i don't need 100 MHz just >100 KHz, like 1 MHz
mircea_popescu: so you have something else to blame huh. i don't!
asciilifeform: spyked: aaaah see, i don't permit clang on my boxes
phf: asciilifeform: i don't really understand fpga peripherals architecture very well, but you think you could eyeball compare what's available in ice to pipistrello. (i'm curious where there's a limitation as far as porting cadr) http://pipistrello.saanlima.com/index.php?title=Welcome_to_Pipistrello#Pipistrello_Rev_2.0_Hardware_Description
mircea_popescu: i gotta shoot people in the present so they don't befoul the future in the manner they befouled the present through existing in the past.
needhelpwithnode: she realizes that I'm not turned on, and then tells me: baby, I don't have much time to spend here cause i need to continue working
mircea_popescu: nah, i don't recall what the site was called, but dice something.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform didn't want to commission back in 2013 or so because i don't recall, something about how doesn't want to lose the spirit or somesuch.
mircea_popescu: so as i was saying -- we don't have to usg.dumb sign anything.
mircea_popescu: and i don't think it's necessarily a bad solution, which is why i said there are others.
asciilifeform: i don't see a zero
mircea_popescu: i don't follow.
mircea_popescu: i don't know anyone but idiots and poor orcs still in that shithole. romanians fine example of both categories.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i don't know specifically what.
Barbarossa_: I don't actually mind paying retail, thanks though!
Barbarossa_: don't get me wrong: I'm mostly just trying to wrangle for an even cheaper implementation of gold standard entropy (despite not being a joo)
trinque: I don't keep 'em in head, but hostfile
a111: Logged on 2017-09-01 05:10 AlfredAlfer: say you're completely anonymous, don't use your real name, like I assume all you guys do.. is it easy for them to tie what you've said onto your actual person?
AlfredAlfer: well I don't want you to think I'm that dumb haha
AlfredAlfer: food is amazing, and everywhere though. I don't know how they stay so slim.
mircea_popescu: i don't!
mircea_popescu: i don't.
a111: Logged on 2017-09-01 05:23 mircea_popescu: http://91.218.246.33/2017/beating-that-spark-of-heaven/ << and i don't mean just the root, either.
mircea_popescu: anyway. no, i don't expect it's "impenetrable" in any sense.
cazalla: trinque, sure, but i'm talking about the Cantwell types who go to a march, stand there while they get shit, piss and acid thrown on them but don't even fire upon them, why bother even showing up then? just to larp
AlfredAlfer: wow fancy that. A frame I don't even have to draw.

AlfredAlfer: no I don't have an RSA key. What is it?
danielpbarron: i don't know mircea_popescu's hosting arrangement
AlfredAlfer: I don't know
mircea_popescu: you know as well as i do that the reason your log lives on .log files is because all of you lot think you could, but none of you lot actually can make a sane log. that's what the random package a low effort search returned does, and that is what you get. same is true of all other items, either you found it at the walmart in the "diy" section or you don't have it.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-31 21:29 gabriel_laddel_p: now, I am 100% with ascii that floats have to die. no question. I, however, am severely undereducated & don't know what to replace them with.

a111: Logged on 2017-08-31 21:16 gabriel_laddel_p: I rather have the same reaction to the old symbolics people in the area who have now seen masamune after sinking you know, a decade of their lives or so into lispm & then don't buy

phf: it's actually pretty small. 150k or so if you don't count the dependencies. i believe that the mcclim team has pulled a bunch of builtin compatability layers and replaced them with portable "community" versions i.e. closer-mop instead of builtin mop facility (metaobject protocol for dealing with CLOS classes), etc.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-31 17:47 fyr: How many times has any ~ghost~ on this channel actually been impersonated? I guess like if every conversation starts with "get a key already" ghosts just don't exist for long
a111: Logged on 2017-08-31 17:40 fyr: Like I'm not saying it is ~an utterly impossible insurmountable burden~ I'm saying I don't have any threat models for which it makes sense
phf: i don't think he can even grok the shape of the criticism
phf: i don't think he appreciated my communication style.
jackdaniel: I don't know, I don't think so though
phf: i don't think he literally used the word cunt. i've spent some years with the irish, when i'm in moscows i start reverting (i'm not quite sure what the connection is in my brain)
phf: yeah, i don't remember the details. i think g_l just wanted to be the top dog on the project, and, to quote trinque, swing a dick that he didn't have by running the whole thing in faux tmsr way (lots of calling everyone cunt), which got him marginalized, and eventually completely sidelined
trinque: g_l for example can absorb an astonishing amount of whipping with nary a budge. I don't even mean that as an insult.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-31#1707411 << honestly i don't see. what ? ☝︎
fyr: actually nvm don't I gtg
fyr: But I don't have any bright plans for making such arrangements, and will consider keyfulness premature optimization until then

fyr: Anyway I'm sure I can be talked into it eventually, but I don't have it set up /already/ and am not going to go on a multihour Fetchquest to that effect rn
sageprobes: was expecting a forum tbh, I don't actually have a sage probe I would need help with but was curious about battle stories
mircea_popescu: which should answer #hpluswhatwas it's curiosity. i can coerce, because people can't live with themselves if they don't do as i say. a lesson some learn on own skin and some intuit naturally.
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: criuise ships don't really check ID + bribes exist. I can probably take a one way cruise, hop off & become someone else if I felt like putting in the effort/
gabriel_laddel_p: to finish that story, I was not even at this party, and don't to any of them + have started charging people to meet with me.
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: nah. like 20-something. I don't talk to her or anything, but, again, people run into, ban, then discuss me at lenght
gabriel_laddel_p: asciilifeform: you realize I don't like... pay bills, rent, whatever, right?
gabriel_laddel_p: I'm german and don't stop for anyone.
kanzure: i don't think lungs are currently compatible with that idea. is it beyond understanding that such a scheme would require different components?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don't live with the situation because im lazy.
mircea_popescu: so, i don't have a reservoir here. i could build one, but i don't want to, because it'd be too small (there's a minimum size of reservoir, because the algae ie "taste" is a function of surface approx, whereas volume obv matter of volume ; if your tank is not big enough it'll be flavoured.)
asciilifeform: well kanzure's answer to 'no, i don't want a usa-controlled planeteering death star to exist' was not 'oh hey this 1 d00d doesn't like it, guess i won't advocate to build it'
asciilifeform: how about, say, i ~like~ warmer climate, and don't want it 'mitigated' ?
asciilifeform: kanzure: what part of 'i don't want to be shaded' is hard to understand ?
asciilifeform: i gotta wonder, kanzure , you don't like money ? or what. ( or make it not by selling anything ? )
kanzure: i don't know why you are surprised or confused about any of this. you don't do this kind of butt sniffing? it's what dogs do.
kanzure: a few weeks i don't care
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, <@fenn> nobody ever got rich by not asking for money << i don't recall my ever asking anyone.
mircea_popescu: (i don't mean animated gifs, i mean paletted.)
mircea_popescu: i don't think anyone can be arsed to process them.
mircea_popescu: i don't know anyone who doesn't.
asciilifeform: 'I would consider it irresponsible to sell a potentially dangerous composition of matter to someone who you don't know or haven't met. It's just bad judgement. Most of the people on that list are either folks with a history of exclusion for various fraudalent activities, either domestically or internationally, or people who might potentially being terrorists kinda environment, or folks who have published in North Korea, or who have p
mircea_popescu: i'm merely pointing out to you that no, you don't.
phf: mircea_popescu: i don't think a thinking man is any kind of ist. i think it's an affect, one could be a rationalist and then he's going to talk about occam and denounce causes, or one can be some kind of mystic, and then he's going to have a particular stance also. i don't think any of this has to do with with any sort of understanding.
mircea_popescu: 14:43 < kanzure> i was just going through "the list" in my head (i don't really have a list, i'm just making things up that sound important) << ehehehe. this is becoming very alike that seinfeld episode where they had an opposite world and there was an opposte alf named fenn and so on. THE RSMT!!!
