asciilifeform: mod6: i'ma put it in later today, thx
asciilifeform: mod6: this looks pretty good. where would you like the link to go ?
asciilifeform: for quick emplacement, would like to have 320x132 then
asciilifeform: within reason
asciilifeform: dun care how tall
asciilifeform: ok
asciilifeform: just the 320 dimension
asciilifeform: currently i'd prefer horiz
asciilifeform: mod6: my jpg is 320 wide

asciilifeform: when nyc still had working garbage pickup etc
asciilifeform: ah good old dayz d00d
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu painfully educated me on subj.
asciilifeform: similarly out of my price range.
asciilifeform: same 'about to' as to mars, lol
asciilifeform: i've not personally captained anyffing bigger than rowboat, lol
asciilifeform: ( sailing on a driftwood is a depressing experience )
asciilifeform: i'd like to upgrade to the sailboat.
asciilifeform: the naive picture in asciilifeform's head has , in this light, moar resemblance to piece of driftwood, than sailboat
asciilifeform: this model makes a great deal of sense, and kudos to mircea_popescu for showing it
asciilifeform: logical.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: aah i think i get it. 'iron is the master of them all'(tm)(r)
asciilifeform: i haven't any idea is it's a local min or the beginning of a slide back into 2015 or whichever way, my voodoo is weak
asciilifeform: what's the proper method to shield, then
asciilifeform stepping outside of his expertise and prolly oughta stfu re subj
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes mod6 possibly you oughta consider a couple mo. of usd 'shielding'..?
asciilifeform: exch rate oscillation has potential to be a palpable headache, like solar storms for space station
asciilifeform: can go in either direction, neh ?
asciilifeform: ( i.e. in the sense where its movements cannot do any serious good, only damage ? then yes )
asciilifeform: hm?
asciilifeform: considering that a good % of the current subscription base is paid quarterly (or even 1yr ahead) -- exch rate is not irrelevant
asciilifeform: that was what i meant in re 'the only part that feels the btc exch rate'
asciilifeform: ok.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: you'd better have one
asciilifeform: after prev refuel
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i did say 'next parcel somebody other than asciilifeform ' , recall
asciilifeform: good q ; hey ben_vulpes , did you ?
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: the van's been dispatched!1
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: ben_vulpes: recall, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-24#1818041 ☝︎

asciilifeform: '...and this here is the airport wallet inspector master key jack. got a problem, terrorist ?' ☟︎
asciilifeform: youreaditherephirst!11
asciilifeform: re tpmism : i predict many great lulz of the fyootoor , when google et al roll 'bitcoin' support into cr50 etc
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1825043 << remember 'clipper' ? never died, immortal, just gets rebranded erry so often ☝︎
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: aa
asciilifeform: street vendors errywhere peddling 'magic pies'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the uruguay locals ? they eat (yes, eat) pot by the pound, it looked like
asciilifeform: no slon on the box, but same grade of grass shaving rubbish.
asciilifeform: point was, the matte people prepare their leaves the same, compl with stems.
asciilifeform: right here in usa even
asciilifeform: funnily enuff that stuff is still sold
asciilifeform: i didn't either, lol
asciilifeform: classic chifir material. ☟︎
asciilifeform: definitely sticks, twigs.
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: BingoBoingo: oblig : https://img.rl0.ru/da67425f076e7e571c331f7c178db99b/c615x400/news.rambler.ru/img/2018/01/16194608.333147.9461.jpeg
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
