asciilifeform: two variants 1) wait till i'm done writing the wwwtronic upload box thing (could be tomorrow night, i'm spending the morning pulling cable)
mircea_popescu: you tell me, what the fuck am i supposed to do. i got this thing here, i want it to be so and so. what now.
mircea_popescu: and then any reandom schmuck comes around and herp derp, s/x/y/ because hey, i read it in a coimputing cookbook once
asciilifeform: because otherwise, enemy can upload a petabyte of garbage, and the sig is not seen until later
asciilifeform: trivially, it is impossible to have a thing like what i am making now, where the sig is not uploaded first
mircea_popescu: at this point in life & time when i am stuck sending an item purporting to be "a payload" on its own, i've already lost.
asciilifeform: no, but the signature - can.
mircea_popescu: "the thing that was signed" can not stand on iuts own.
mircea_popescu: that's why it's one thing. so they protect each other.
asciilifeform: it is the thing that was signed.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and now HOW THE FUCK IS THE PAYLOAD A THING
asciilifeform: it is two.
asciilifeform: and how the fuck is a sig to be attached to a binary ?
mircea_popescu: under no circumstances may one item be two files and fuck everything.
asciilifeform: how the fuck is more than one person supposed to sign something without detached sigs ?
mircea_popescu: clearsign documents - one file. encrypted documents - one file. that's it.
mircea_popescu: that's where the night came in. when i allowed the use of detached sigs.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it was all the more frustrating to me because 1) i suggested it 2) couldn't think of any genuine improvement
mircea_popescu: three hours was my total budged interacting with it for this entire year. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i will not be using the mailing list system in the future.
mircea_popescu no loinger has the energy.
asciilifeform: it, too, was mutilated earlier.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what of the message body ?
mircea_popescu: but at least now it doesn't change /n to /r/n anymore
mircea_popescu: and it STILL won't make it to ml.
mircea_popescu: once "the terorrists" get them, they're to be publicised.
asciilifeform: (presumably to distract from the ones still whole ?)
asciilifeform: the one thing that i don't get is why mr schmuck is blowing a usgtron open
mircea_popescu: fairness is for peers not for the canaille.
mircea_popescu: he wants to be tolerated, better brownnose like his life depends on it.
mircea_popescu: to answer your earlier obsevation : i want to be friends with thios schmuck like i want to be friends with dea agent.
pete_dushenski can hear the sweet sounds of keyboards being smashed in a furious rage all the way from arg.
mircea_popescu: the who the fuck line is caps and me holding shift at the same time. consider it double screaming.
asciilifeform: now mircea_popescu gets to froth like i did, lol
mircea_popescu: who the fuck told you .txt is ok to fuck up omfg
trinque: kinda hilarious how everything in OSS starts breaking the moment you have hard requirements
mircea_popescu: i have no fucking idea what this is, diff fails over ity
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i vagualy recall an old thread where someone identified a misconfiguration which leads to this.
mircea_popescu: yep, just tested this. squirrelmail mangles sent attachments. for crying out loud.
trinque: asciilifeform: however, much more relevant to bitcoind dev
trinque: most damage it could do is fart out 0.0002 per hour til I wake up :P
trinque: so not that worried
trinque: in my case a deedbot- user would notice the rejected: 1 and complain to me
asciilifeform: rather than a cosmic-rayed superset
asciilifeform wonders how many folks verified that the key on file is actually the one they expect
mircea_popescu: buncha ignorant racist twerps
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: all sv gasbags use the same 'clip art' with starving africans holding iPnohes - i could've toldya that
asciilifeform: (in the south, 3!!)
mircea_popescu: residents of northern tenochtitlan need to get over the idea that the "united states of america" matters
asciilifeform: so 1,275 is 1275 in the land of mordor.
asciilifeform: (american traditional floating point is the comma, e.g., a thousand and one nights, 1,001)
mircea_popescu: gee, i guess all this preoccupation with kids in africa must be pretty fucking novel. they didn't give a shit about africa throughout.
mircea_popescu: not the fact they kept the wallets around unencrypted for 4 years.
asciilifeform: but this is correct american notation.
mircea_popescu: this is in my mind the new high point of "bitcoin core" power ranger retardation
mircea_popescu: will choose to interpret it as... 1275.
mircea_popescu: in today's lulz : it turns out that bitcoin-qt interface, if presented with a malformed value such as 1,275 btc instead of the 1.275 notation, ☟︎
asciilifeform: inside tar, payload & sigs as before.
asciilifeform: i was just gonna have the thing eat tars.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform more for message integrity than anything
trinque: asciilifeform: jurov gave me a script to sync a gpg keychain with assbot's list
asciilifeform: something i like to avoid if it can be avoided.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: that'd mean having keys on the serv end
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and make it take armored encrypted msgs only ?
asciilifeform: punkman: because i, too, grew tired.
asciilifeform: punkman: i am making this.
punkman: html form would have worked so much better for turdatron
mircea_popescu: punkman these are attachments. should go through untouched in ANY manner.
mircea_popescu: at this point, i find myself persuaded that email is the wrong thing, knuth was right, it should have died long ago.
punkman: or maybe something wrapped a line wider than 80 chars
mircea_popescu: but works on the files as they are.
mircea_popescu: yup, the verify fails if i download the attachments
punkman: squirrelmail ate the last newline in one of my files
mircea_popescu: and, much like insane notions of agency as defined legally ("guy spreading his legs is DOING something ; gal eating herself into a bus size is not specifically doing anything"), the quantitative approach favours female dumb.
mircea_popescu: <cazalla> i didn't realise how pervasive the tidal shit from mummy bloggers were until i began looking up baby related things online << this ironically is the first, and to date the most ample use of language. stupid women spreading their stupid whatever it is while pregnant and nursing.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform http://dpaste.com/1FHAYQK so i suppose the ATTACHEMENTS get mangled now ?
mircea_popescu: ah what the fuck.
assbot: NNSA an Iranian Target? ... ( http://bit.ly/1LPZX0Q )
assbot: Logged on 04-09-2015 20:19:44; BingoBoingo: http://cen.acs.org/articles/93/i35/Another-Neurodegenerative-Disease-Linked-Prion.html << More evidence that chirality and rotation matter when we search for a new planet
pete_dushenski: and the comments themselves are exceedingly close to being relevant and don't contain a single outbound link
pete_dushenski: the craftiest spam commenters i've yet seen are all pointing to this guy : http://handyortenmein.com/
asciilifeform: my observation was that he neglected to mention what was meant by 'accidental factors of a corrupted public key', and the most prominent prior art.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: and i think he was talking about an ssl turd, rather than anything from phuctor ?
assbot: Logged on 04-09-2015 21:58:42; mircea_popescu: <funkenstein_> the language is the lexicon << this is beyond naive and absolutely never the case.
funkenstein_: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-09-2015#1262799 <-- Aha, thank you. Apparently I had no clue what "lexicon" actually means. ☝︎
trinque: asciilifeform | <trinque> maybe becomes a function of the web page viewer for V ? << i am writing one. << cool!
pete_dushenski: shinohai: well no one's born knowing these things, but there are worse places to learn about the world and yourself than b-a
cazalla: pete_dushenski, can't say the same for the brussel sprouts, aphids made a meal of them all
shinohai: I don't mind the inquiry, sometimes I think perhaps I am too uneducated to even know the answer to that lol/
pete_dushenski: cazalla: terrible logic and you know it. there's dozens of 'tech/poli/bitcoin newz sites'. none are qntra.
cazalla: pete_dushenski, they're a dime a dozen so i never pursued it further than regging a domain name
pete_dushenski: shinohai: leaving aside 'normal american' notions, how do ~you~ want to matter ? if you don't mind the inquiry
shinohai: I was told I didn't need my physical keyboard either, only a touchscreen. yeah.
shinohai: Nearly everyone *wants* to matter in some way, pete_dushenski. I'm not sure I want to matter in the preconceived notions that American culture *wants* you to matter in.
assbot: New voice transcription feature in Google Docs censors (some!) swearwords – Strong Language ... ( http://bit.ly/1UxXudT )
pete_dushenski: https://stronglang.wordpress.com/2015/09/03/new-voice-transcription-feature-in-google-docs-censors-some-swearwords/ << the future of voice recognition software. "oh, we don't need keyboards, we just need next-gen ai so we can mommy blog while we're changing diapers."
cazalla: well, not really, gave me the idea to do.. daddy blogging lol
assbot: Logged on 05-09-2015 00:53:44; pete_dushenski: their whole fukcing website is dumbass mom's giving their 'reviews' of products and idjit gizmodo rejects writing 'how-tos' and 'top 5s'
cazalla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=05-09-2015#1262962 <<< i didn't realise how pervasive the tidal shit from mummy bloggers were until i began looking up baby related things online ☝︎
pete_dushenski: do you desire to matter ?
