Chillum: the printer kit called for soldering but I did
the whole
thing with pin header wires
nubbins`: you just gotta swap
the rubber stoppers
to maintain pressure
nubbins`: that's where
the printhead draws from
nubbins`: you can see
those
tanks are split vertically
Chillum: nice, does it have
the secondary reservoir so you can keep printing when you switch out
the bottles, or is it a fill from
the
top system?
nubbins`: we have
two: one color (pictured), one with 6 black
tanks
Chillum: oh ya, continuous ink is mandatory if you are going
to go into commercial production
Chillum: I am
trying
to find a place with an extra room for a workspace but nothing really available. After
the university lets out I may have more like
Chillum: I would need
to pay like $500 a month more rent
to get a bigger place
nubbins`: Chillum
they're like $300! get one
Chillum: I want
to invest in a wide format printer and a laser cutter. I just have nowhere
to put
them
nubbins`: never
thought of getting a card
tray for one :D
nubbins`: epson printers are great, i've got
two wide-format ones
Chillum: you need
to replace
the DVD
tray with a card
tray from a Chinese company
that also sells
the blank cards
Chillum: images need
to be converted into 2 bit bitmap but
there are examples online
Chillum: I have a plastic card printer for long
term wallets
Chillum: dirt cheap, but don't get
the printouts hot
nubbins`: hope ya don't store
those long-term :D
Chillum: text is as simple as printer.println("This is
text")
Chillum: the python library makes it fairly easy
to use
too
Chillum: Before I was using a perl script
that made a png
that I printed on my laser printer and deleted. Sooo copy on my hard drive, copy on my printer, copy going over my network
to
the printer. I said "There has
to be a better way"
danielpbarron: oo, instead of
twitter feed, i could make one of
these print MPEx stocks
danielpbarron: now i'm responsible for some "burned" coins forever bloating
the
tx pool :<
Chillum: nubbins`: what if
they add
to
the key???
danielpbarron: and
told people i'd sweep
the funds back after X
time
nubbins`: just give em a privkey, and
take
the money back if it's still
there after x days :P
Chillum: have some service
that lets
them claim it if
they are actually interested
Chillum: nubbins`: If I gave out bitcoin samples it would be in
the form of a coupon
that expires. If you just give out wallets half
the people will
throw
them out
Chillum: I did a scan for keystrings and did not find
them
Chillum: I am pretty sure I am not writing
to disk. No flashing green light
nubbins`: not a great way
to make people care, hey?
Chillum: no
temp files,
the user running it has read only access
to
the drive
danielpbarron: i liked it for handing out freebies
to people i met
Chillum: but really I want mine
to forget right away. I have no swap and do everything in RAM
Chillum: unlimited keys with
the advantage of backup.
Chillum: If you want
that
then use a deterministic wallet
Chillum: if you limit your generator
to a smaller keyspace
that you precompute
then you don't need a backchannel of communications
danielpbarron: yeah i was
trying
to get mine
to pull from a list of pre-generated addresses
that i supplied
danielpbarron: probably fixable but i wouldn't want
to actually send funds
to any address it produces anyway
Chillum: Still, I will always write my own paper wallet software
that uses vanitygen. You never know if some 3rd party programmed it
to only make 500 million keys and has
then precomputed
danielpbarron: i've had a piper printer for a couple years now i
think
Chillum: looks like
the same printer
too
Chillum: and here I
thought I was being clever
Chillum: hehe I did not know about
that
Chillum: you can get
the parts way cheaper
Chillum: I started with a fresh OS and wrote
the bitcoin wallet printer
Chillum: it was from a kit meant
to printer a
twitter feed in real
time
Chillum: It is a raspberry pi connected
to a button and a
tty receipt printer
Chillum: well I am using rng-tools
to point /dev/hwrng
to /dev/random
Chillum: I wrote
the code myself, it calls vanitygen pointed
to
the hwrng
Chillum: it is using
the hwrng in a raspberry pi
Chillum: I like
that it uses 2
trngs
through a xor gate. Often
that is implemented in software with
two devices
Chillum: other
than auditability how could one detect a subtle failure?
Chillum: lol,
that zap switch will burn out
the EPROM if used for
too long
nubbins`: oh here we go, someone qualified can
take over
Chillum: the major flaw with most HWRNGs is
the lack of failure detection
nubbins`: careful, you'll run out of credits if you click
too many links ;p
Chillum: how do
they interface? Do
they have serial out?
nubbins`: and i
think he has a job
too 8)
nubbins`: anyway, poor asciilifeform has been
testing
the cardano boards like a madman lately
assbot: Searching pgp.mit.edu for key with fingerprint: 8680FD3C9D20B92FBEF3D058FD5A63B9EAC2A55E.
This may
take a few moments.
nubbins`: you can use your current key,
try !register <fingerprint>
Chillum: any pattern is likely due
to sampling bias or an external source of energy
Chillum: while
the average rate of radioactive decay is predictable
the actual moment of a given decay is very uncertain
Chillum: the radioactive decay looks like it has issues but
that is likely due
to
the sampling methodology
Chillum: one must run
the same
test many
times on different data, only if a
test is failing reliably or more
than likely by chance is
there a problem
nubbins`: "Sum-up : 73
tests performed. Cardano RNG : Failed 2, Weak 5, Passed 66. Radioactive decay : Failed 9, Weak 13, Passed 51. Now go
take your current entropy source, put it
through diehard and see what happens. "
nubbins`: comments have some dieharder
test results
nubbins`: (not
the sparkfun one,
that was a general share)
nubbins`: ^ some links
to start you out, Chillum
mod6: i like
the BTC
truck
nubbins`: ;;later
tell asciilifeform ado says 1000 @ $15ea, bout
the same as other guy
nubbins`: <+mircea_popescu> ;;later
tell felipelalli
tell you what, if you can prove ownership of a btc address, you can have 1% of whatever's in
there as a loan, for short intervals, interest free. how about
that. <<< big spender!
nubbins`: <+pete_dushenski>
though not "canadian back bacon" <<< you mean ham? :D
nubbins`: <+mircea_popescu>
http://rapecloset.tumblr.com/post/114719086934/marla << apparently "rapecloset" exists. <<< "it isn't hard
to get candy. all i do is go
to granny's house, since granny keeps candy
there for me. i mention
that i love candy and wait. i've also used my aunt, left my mouth open, gone into a
torpor, only
to be awoken later by
the gummy bears. some of
the hottest food ever.
nubbins`: canada was unable
to ban marijuana because everybody fuckin smokes it
jurov: "China was unable
to block Github because of
the huge cost
to its
technology industry."
