asciilifeform: turbo pascal ( 4 versions!111 ) . nintendo games. peter norton complete works. roms for circa 1990s pcs. mirrors of long-dead ??? sites. ;
asciilifeform: 'community' link goes to some heathen chat thing, dunwork here
asciilifeform: 0 idea where the thing was born or why.
asciilifeform: ( i can't think of much use for most of the artifacts, or would mirror )
asciilifeform: the 'wget -m -np -c --no-check-certificate -R "index.html*" "https://the-eye.eu/public/"' listed at the bottom of all pgs, is classy touch imho.
asciilifeform: pizarro is afaik the only moving part we've got that at all feels the exch rate
asciilifeform: from asciilifeform's perch, 'valuations' are voodoo , i have nfi either way
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: expand re 'too high' ?
asciilifeform: hey, it isn't as if the academitards don't always create 'new' 'paper' via same foo | bar | baz template spammers use ( as posted in mircea_popescu's www on at least 1 occasion )
asciilifeform: 'helped government authorities and academics spot suspicious activity in the past' << didjaknow.
asciilifeform: 'The authors of the new 66-page paper do not have emails or documents that prove that Bitfinex knew about or was responsible for price manipulation. The researchers relied on the millions of transaction records that are captured on the public ledgers...' << lol
asciilifeform: regular installments, asciilifeform tbh does not follow subj in realtime
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: moar of a 'we're about to dump a bit moar stolen coin on the waterfall so here's some smoke screen'
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1825076 << as far as i can tell, their Official policy is to never admit that the thing even exists ( aside from the src, which is gnarly enuff , i suppose , to 'not count' somehow )☝︎
asciilifeform: dunno, box was labeled simply 'matte'
asciilifeform: amazing, sometimes, what people will drink.
asciilifeform actually bought some matte and prepared what he thought was the traditional чифир-style tea, on coming home from BingoBoingo , was woozy for whole day☟︎
asciilifeform: and '...interprets user ids as status/control messages and does not correctly keep track of the status of multiple signatures, which allows remote attackers to spoof arbitrary email signatures via public keys containing crafted primary user ids.' etc☟︎
asciilifeform: in other lulz, 'The signature verification routine in Enigmail 2.0.6.1, GPGTools 2018.2, and python-gnupg 0.4.2 parse the output of GnuPG 2.2.6 with a “--status-fd 2” option, which allows remote attackers to spoof arbitrary signatures via the embedded “filename” parameter in OpenPGP literal data packets, if the user has the verbose option set in their gpg.conf file.'
asciilifeform: likewise, with a popped unit it will be possible to take multi-GB samples of the onboard rng, and examine this.
asciilifeform: if one could guess the 32byte magic even 0.01% of the time, could unlock a unit in a day or three.
asciilifeform: but would need at least 1 actually popped cr50 chip, to tune the probe.
asciilifeform: the 'add 5% random NOPs during hashing' is not a watertight pill against dpa.
asciilifeform: in a rigged fw, could run this routine and watch for dpa correlates.
asciilifeform: ...and potentially for dpa experiment. rma unlock , turns out , generates a disposable seekrit ( good for N tries, i fughet what N is ) , encrypts to google's ecc pubkey, and expects to be given the magic string back, to unlock
asciilifeform: phf: see if you can get 1, if can also get 2... it'd be useful for glitching experiments
