asciilifeform: ( for all i know, competed somehow with long-gone racoon fur market, or the like. kinda how hemp was banned at behest of cotton planters in 19th c )
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: relatedly, at one point i found out that chinchilla fur hat is banned in usa. ( never learned specifically why )
asciilifeform: hey, moar of rabbit than guinea pig is pig
asciilifeform: meanwhile, in archaeology, https://archive.is/DSMvg >> 'running a couple Mikrotik RB532 routerboards as broadband gateway routers under OpenWRT 10.03.1... ...looks like /dev/random provides no entopy'
asciilifeform: in upstack lulz, 'The scope of this vulnerability is limited; generations of CPUs after the C3 no longer contain this feature' << aah nobusism
asciilifeform: whole point of keeping the stable of priests around, neh. responsibility-laundry.
asciilifeform: ( btw the m. rust wankage has deep undercurrent of scamola, word is the gorby personally ordered 'not shoot', didn't want his fellating of nato reich disrupted by 'incident', then flunkies took the blame )
asciilifeform: btw, recall mathias rust , landing on red square ? and whole su air defense brass sacked ? in usa, there were no fewer than 3 'rusts' , landed in front of capitol, white house, etc. , 0 shot, also considered almost unremarkable nowadays
asciilifeform: hm, i suppose 1 possible theory, 'flying police' shot without Official order
asciilifeform: ( american highway police routinely shoot at getaway cars, creating massive pileup wreckage, is considered unremarkable )
asciilifeform: re f15 -- i'm at a loss for why the seekrecy re the shooting of the thing
asciilifeform: re the ssl keyz, mats gave me a 1.1TB massive raw shitball of the whole shebang, potentially can reindex later.
asciilifeform didn't initially notice, i have these switched off on the box where read the lul
asciilifeform: ( veeery selective, and consistent, and on technical matters entirely passable, i oughta note )
asciilifeform: even 'большая советская энциклопедия' was closer to d'alembert's item, than pedi
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: about a decade ago, i bought, on a lark, a keychain thing that claimed to contain all of the text of the then-pediwikia, and had 'random' button. ~99+% of presses of this button, resulted in 'flyshit, montana'-type nowhere-village article.☟︎
asciilifeform: ( and omit 'new small factor for known rubbish mod' from rss, nobody particularly needs to 'see the rubble bounce' )
asciilifeform: what i'ma end up doing, is to factor all of the small composites, remove'em from db, enter the factors instead, and henceforth never enter composites into factor table.☟︎
asciilifeform: and nobody fucking cares that 'there are 2 moduli divisible by 1547665'. aint prime.
asciilifeform: 'this is divisible by 3' should not be news.
asciilifeform: ok, output is happening. up side : there's output, that there was not before. down side : so far all of it is small change crapolade. i'ma really have to do a mod-by-mod walk and gcd(mod, 8192bit primorial from oldthread) . and henceforth on submission. cuz this is lame.
asciilifeform: next we will see what , if anything, happens when we run on a ~random 3%~ subset of whole collection.
asciilifeform: the actual count of new factors found, was 28 .
asciilifeform: was optimizing rss crapper so that it doesn't idiotically do whole cpu/hour of work each time cache expires, evidently introduced a sad where a new find of $factor triggers old mods as report
asciilifeform: ( on 'clean' boot naturally , each time )
asciilifeform: the huawei crapola, for instance, i'm quite convinced at this point would be 100% breakable if anybody got hold of a unit and forced it to generate keys 24/7 for a coupla months☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: !Q later tell BingoBoingo plz lemme know re the 1 mech disk in the bilge ( whose is it ? and what size ? and can fit in the snake ? )
asciilifeform: !Q later tell ben_vulpes plox to give mircea_popescu & asciilifeform a quote for getting 5 10TB mech disks of reasonable quality to BingoBoingostan
asciilifeform: mod6: what's the latest on ben_vulpes's disks misadventure ?
asciilifeform: mod6: drive shortage will have to be cured ; if i gotta fly with crate of disks, even.
asciilifeform: ( hence why the debian collection gets run in two steps, 'p's' then 'q's' )
asciilifeform: i had this knob on the implementation conveyor regardless, because of a certain peculiarity of bernstein's algo which i noticed, where if there is an even multiple of any given factor present in the whole, it will not get found☟︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: depending on how long it takes to get disks, we can do what i suggested a while back ( but for some reason can't dig up, in l0gz) where we trade space for time, and run on randomized subsets of the db continuously☟︎
asciilifeform: 10tb mech disks are ~400bux where i sit
asciilifeform: only the typical 5v one ( i.e. needs lappy-sized drive )
asciilifeform: mod6: problem is that afaik we dun have a 12v snake
asciilifeform: meanwhile... i'ma do a speshul singleshot run with ~only~ mats parcel1 (i.e. minus errything prior to june) as input , just to get a sense of what lies ahead. output will appear in #asciilifeform later today.
asciilifeform: mechanical disks would actually suffice, for this purpose.☟︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: we are gonna have to activate the s.nsa spare box, as a storage cluster ( and get disks to fill same )
asciilifeform: ... in fact, loox like there won't be any moar phuctor output until i get a 1TB disk hooked up ( will have to be on a usb snake, luckily i left BingoBoingo with one -- as all 4 drive bays on dulap are full )
