shinohai: I see little point in running a VPS to make $20 in Amazon giftcards
shinohai: Is that Romanian ?
asciilifeform: betcha even pygmies have this phrase
mircea_popescu: "fata care cere palme" < face that demands slapping ☟︎
shinohai: I like the Russian idiom
asciilifeform: 'face like Mark Zuckerberg that you just want to punch for no reason' << we call this 'морда просит кирпича' (mug that begs for a brick)
shinohai: @ mircea_popescu truth and honesty have a far greater value than anything else. Besides,he has a face like Mark Zuckerberg that you just want to punch for no reason.
mircea_popescu: russian chocolate good, russian telephone bad mkay!
asciilifeform: ;;later tell kakobrekla those headphones suck donkey ballz. sound like russian telephone.
asciilifeform: everyone forgets the gruntwork, remembers the joy, aha
mircea_popescu: http://sgate.emt.bme.hu/patai/publications/z80guide/part4.html << considering all the work one has to go through to mult. i dunno, i recalled it had the instruction. i guess memory rots.
asciilifeform: (barrel shifter, named for the characteristic physical shape of the circuit on the die, allows shifting n bits in one clock cycle)
asciilifeform: mats: this is a pretty major result, imho. because the cpld products haven't changed in nearly a decade, and their internal structure is extremely regular (no special-purpose blocks)

mircea_popescu: <punkman> "Ades Stone talks about the Treasury's decision to put a woman on the $10 bill and why she thinks a woman should be on the $20, too." << "because they've not done anything worth the mention so perhaps if we do they start ?"
mircea_popescu: he has a point tho. anyone feel like writing up a documentation page for trinque to stick up there ?
asciilifeform discovered, during unrelated research, that xilinx's 'coolrunner' cpld series - a very simple programmable logic gizmo with very homogeneous/regular physical structure - can hold a simple risc cpu...
mircea_popescu: <shinohai> If he reneged on said offer to me, I'd pribably go to jail for assault. << over a hundred bux ? what are you, bugsy ?
mircea_popescu: provided silverware comes into fashion with the chinese middle class or something
mircea_popescu: silver down to 16 huh ? where is that guy came in here was an expert that hadn't been wrong in a decade knew for usre silver's going up ?
mircea_popescu: fluffypony i think i had a cup there with mthreat coupla weeks ago. coffee's not bad
shinohai: "El cafe que te vuelve inteligente" <<< I drink, I get smart
decimation: it's a colossal joke that this ruling gets handed down by the king's judges, in the 800th year of the magna carta - which itself was a joke and used as propaganda
decimation: people have hanged for the letter of the law
decimation: http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/06/25/us-usa-court-healthcare-idUSKBN0P51V220150625 < ""Congress passed the Affordable Care Act to improve health insurance markets, not to destroy them," Roberts wrote in the court's decision, adding that nationwide availability of the credits is required to "avoid the type of calamitous result that Congress plainly meant to avoid.""

punkman: because too fat to walk
punkman: oh they got virtual marches nao
punkman: "please show your support by joining our Virtual March to the White House, using the hashtag #DearMrPresident."
punkman: "Ades Stone talks about the Treasury's decision to put a woman on the $10 bill and why she thinks a woman should be on the $20, too."
Anduck: hmm, seems to work. thanks!
punkman: I think you just gotta SHA256 the deed bundle and use that as the private exponent
Anduck: there's no documentation about that.
Anduck: ok well, anyone know how to verify deedbot.org deeds?
shinohai: If he reneged on said offer to me, I'd pribably go to jail for assault.
cazalla: he was a protege of alex jones but got all butt hurt and so pretty much copies everything that loon does
shinohai: I did not know that cazalla though he struck me as kind of a douche.
cazalla: shinohai, did ya know mark dice is A) major clickbait faggot B) goes around offering gold coins and silver bars really cheap but when someone tries to take him up on the offer, he refuses and just edits the footage so as not to include it
davout: shinohai: if you want to improve your crypto skills do the matasano challenges
shinohai: Thanks for your help again! I'm akways trying to learn and not make terrible noob mistakes.
mircea_popescu: that's basically the idea here. 4k is large enough, 8k doesn't improve anything.
shinohai: Thanks guy. So until such a time that RSA 4096 is broken, we're still quite safe.
davout: if the symmetric cipher security isn't based on the intractability of factoring large numbers you can't really tell which one will be broken before the other
davout: isn't aes the symmetric cipher used by GPG?
mircea_popescu: what, that blowfish or whatever dies before 4096 rsa ?
davout: shinohai: and even if it was more secure you'd still message counter parties with keys that are smaller than yours
davout: that remains to be demonstrated
mircea_popescu: fore the other, at that level it would doubtlessly be cheaper to crack the symmetric cypher involved
mircea_popescu: there is no serious benefit offered by a key larger than 4096. for one thing, we don't currently have any reason to believe even 2k keys can actually be factored.
davout: if you need to change the code in two places to change a single scalar
davout: also it's weird that this isn't some sort of constant
shinohai: I certainly don't want to do anything that compromises the security f my key intentionally.
shinohai: So my question is, is this accurate information?
assbot: Create large GnuPG Keys Step by Step Part 1 (8192 to 16384 bits long) | Technology is in our lives… ... ( http://bit.ly/1dhMu5f )
shinohai: I am reserching methods of making a larger key and found this: http://teravice.com/wp/index.php/2014/01/22/create-large-gnupg-keys-step-by-step-2/
shinohai: Good morning, #b-a. If there is a gpg expert here that has a moment to spare I have a question.
cazalla: some japanese variety, forget the name
cazalla: tried growing em one year but possums got to em
cazalla: ya should've had kramer take it back
cazalla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=25-06-2015#1176185 <<< you actually finished them off? bit shocked tbh ☝︎
mircea_popescu: better than pool
cazalla: in other australian news - http://i.imgur.com/fw7Fq8z.png - aussie government welfare app #22, they must be quite happy with that
cazalla: i've never known anyone to go to the sydney opera house for opera, not so sure they even have such things on a reg occurance, more bands, abo dance, international acts sorta thing
davout: +1 to opera
mircea_popescu: hard to find these days tho. lotta crap.
cazalla: this extends as far back as school excursions to the stupid fucking place
assbot: Logged on 25-06-2015 05:28:25; decimation: the megaprojects guy describes the failure of the sydney opera house: "The cost overrun was 1400%. And as always when cost overruns happen, the architect was blamed, and his work situation became so uncomfortable, he found that he actually left the project in the middle, with his family, and flew out of Australia, never to return."
cazalla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=25-06-2015#1175887 <<< i might be uncultured swine but i've never understood the appeal of the opera house.. i'd demolish it if i had my way ☝︎
fromphuctor: thanks for the pointers in the right direction, have a great day
mircea_popescu: jsut send it a few times, eh.
fromphuctor: provided that doesn't get me flagged.
fromphuctor: in the meantime, I'll probably script something that sends my file to Phuctor repeatedly until I stop getting an error.
fromphuctor: alright, sleeves need to be rolled up. I'll probably have to dig into ASN.1, extract the public keys, and then try factoring them with a kludged together Python script
mircea_popescu: you could not use gcd for this, however, as gcd is an algorithm to find shared factors, not simply factors. you'd have to have something to compare against.
mircea_popescu: but nothing keeps you from simplytrying to factor your own modulus on your own machine
mircea_popescu: well, again, gpg has a probabilistic test for primality baked in.
fromphuctor: so Phuctor's main advantage is that it retains the information it has gained by going through all the other keys?
mircea_popescu: you could run a probabilistic test on your own machine for your own modulus. if you have a good rng this usually woirks,
fromphuctor: I'm mainly trying to determine if I have generated a key with bad entropy leading to bad primes meaning easy factorability
mircea_popescu: a) if you're looking for binaries it's unlikely your key is your weak point ; b) gcd is an algorithm, i guess you could call it a function. "greatest common divisor" ; c) P is at the core of this, as it looks for MUTUAL divisors
fromphuctor: gcd as in the math function? does it exist in a binary?
mircea_popescu: well, an implementation of gcd is what you need, and the P
fromphuctor: is there code I can run locally to attempt to factor it and save Phuctor's CPU time?
mircea_popescu: it's been too loaded for months as it cuts through millions of 'em
fromphuctor: so it's most likely that phuctor's just too loaded right now?
mircea_popescu: it's most likely failure due to the fact that the apache bit is last in line at the cpu through
fromphuctor: I figured it was either failing due to the key being too large or due to it not being published anywhere
mircea_popescu: insist a few times
mircea_popescu: fromphuctor well atm it's working through a lengthy list of keys already extant on the sks servers.
fromphuctor: it's quite a large key with a few subkeys, total upload size is around 13K
fromphuctor: it's an as-of-yet unpublished GPG key because I wanted to make sure it's not easily factorable
mircea_popescu: cazalla yes, very amusing how the stupid brain doesn't merely fail to work, but manages to work contrary t osense. you'd think this has to be engineered, but apparently iot comes naturally
fromphuctor: I'm unable to submit my GPG key online to Phuctor
assbot: Flight of the Conchords Ep2 She's So Hot - Boom - YouTube ... ( http://bit.ly/1GJuDP6 )
mircea_popescu: yes. what did you want to say fromphuctor ?
cazalla: also amusing they related a bitcoin transaction with fraud when it is really the antithesis to that sorta thing (except humble bundle who rumour is got carded big time for gaming codes using coinbase)
mircea_popescu: "Our Solutions Leadership About Us Careers News Contact" who the fuck thought this is how you do it ? it's almost like the soviet butcher, "we're the advertising shop, we don't have publishers. fish is what they don't have in the shop down the street" ☟︎☟︎
