mats: asciilifeform: i used
the prev build. after updating
to mainline, no issues getting a
tx out
BingoBoingo: And
there is a general
transit strike
that coincidently happens
to overlap with when
transit is shut down anyways.
BingoBoingo: And a bunch of
Tienda Inglesa locations are apparently going
to be open
tomorrow.
BingoBoingo: Update on
the Christmas
tradition known as "Hay ladrones por Navidad. Ladrones de los barrios pichis van a Pocitos a robar": God damn
this place is rural.
Two off road style 4-wheelers seen being ridden by kids in
the streets and Police
tucked away everywhere drinking Mate and dicking around on
their cell phones.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-24 17:13 mats: i checked my notes, i have had 4 separate
tx (with -connect set exclusively
to advertised republican nodes) since march fail
to be mined, including one
this morning. i don't know whether i can determine if
they're just not being relayed
to
the network, or outright being ignored
a111: Logged on 2018-12-24 09:28 mats: has anyone successfully gotten a
trb
tx mined in
the six months? i have
tried several
times and not succeeded
BingoBoingo playing with less spartan mp-wp, enjoying self and preaparing
to share
this gift
mircea_popescu: his assurance is worth diddly, but
the fact he has
to make it...
diana_coman: ahaha, one of
those
that changes when you cross
the mountains
then?
mircea_popescu: generally
the mempool is pretty homogenous (ie, most nodes report
the same
tx set), but
there's always basic stuff (did you include enough fee ?) and so on.
mircea_popescu: mats you can check by connecting independently
to a prb node and checking if it reports it in its mempool.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-24 05:07 mircea_popescu: why,
there's many
towns all
through asia built on
tigdic principles.
trinque: not
that it explains why
the nodes on
the other end didn't relay for you, but
there's a lot of layered mystery meat involved.
trinque: eh I
think you'll rather want
to -addnode republican nodes. -connect is exclusive

☟︎ trinque: that much is
true. iirc mod6 had a patch in
the works.
mats: trinque: i would love
to use
that, except stock
trb doesn't have create/signrawtxn functionality yet
trinque: I've been sending
trb
txn quite a lot for wallet users, haven't had any recent
trouble.
danielpbarron: i have gotten a
tx
to confirm with
trb, but i've also had one ignored
trinque: mircea_popescu: yeah
that's
the idea, for sure
diana_coman: phf, would it be a big bother
to get for me
the number of words in
the logs for
the weeks 26Nov-2Dec, 3Dec-9Dec, 10Dec-16Dec 2018? It's more
to satisfy my curiosity on whether
the relative sizes match
the variation in size of my summaries for
those weeks or not.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: (next logical step
to "oh, i maintain a node" being, obv, "oh, i maintain a !!sendtx".)
mats: to clarify, my
trb
tx are not apparently being relayed
to miners at large
mats: has anyone successfully gotten a
trb
tx mined in
the six months? i have
tried several
times and not succeeded
☟︎ mircea_popescu: since we're on mp-wp woes : an hero
to make mp-wp footnote system NEST would be appreciated. currently works only 1 level deep, maybe once each year or
two gotta do lvl2 footnotes by hand.
mircea_popescu: or you know, AdvancedMaterials@ashland.com. i'm sure
they'll send you some.
mircea_popescu: that's what
they were
thinking. all of
them, from "cia" down
to
the last redditard.
mircea_popescu: The woman even challenges him about it, in no uncertain
terms : "you suck", she says, "you've got nothing", she says, "and you can't even admit it".
mircea_popescu: Ed Helms, Steve Carell, rando dork,
they're all
the same guy. lalala can't hear you.
mircea_popescu: THATS WHAT
THE NINE STEPS ARE ALL ABOUT -- REFUSE
TO LOSE!!!
mircea_popescu: basically, it's supposed
to be my problem
that
their shit's broken. because
they live in
the best possible world and everything else is rape or w/e, "not understanding
the concept of bdsm"
mircea_popescu: recall how all
those old browsers wrote
the
text out of bounds whenever
there was more
text
than bounds ?
a111: Logged on 2018-12-22 17:22 mircea_popescu: hey, "apple has had a homogenizing and sanitizing effect on '''the internet''' (ie,
the special reservation for morons, retards and other debris finding its way
the fuck out since 1993)."
mircea_popescu: give him some messages you don't care about, is
the idea.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no,
the question of what % of
the "entropy" leaked was entropic. obviously from chtulhu's pov your message's just as delicious entropy as any other.
mircea_popescu: kinda states differently ye olde "ciphers are not worth having when encryption's available". IF you have rng
to piss out, might as well find some primes.
mircea_popescu: this is
the fundamental cost here : EITHER have asymmetric keys, or ELSE leak entropy.
mircea_popescu: i
think basically
the point here is
to summarize what was found. and
that's specifically
that a)
there's no meaningful discussion of "better" or "worse" ciphers worth having when by "cipher" one understands "mixing in 0 entropy".
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah, kinda in
the vein of my algo hash
thing. but honestly i'd prefer an algebraic form.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-24 01:03 asciilifeform: picture
the following 1-dimensional automaton,
that eats bitstring in sets of 2bits, and : '10' -> 'tape step left' ; '01' -> 'tape step right' ; '11' -> invert bit at current square; '00' ->
terminate.
a111: Logged on 2017-02-14 19:19 asciilifeform: specifically, for every byte you intend
to send, you instead send
two: x, y. which you generate by obtaining rng byte r, and payload byte b, and x := b xor r, y := r
a111: Logged on 2017-11-22 21:45 asciilifeform: anyway for 512bit key, you still keep
the 128bit block. but each
time you have incoming 128b plaintext, you shamir it rngistically into 512bits, i.e. 4 128b parcels
that must be xor'd
to reconstitute
the original. each of
these get ciphered with one of 4 independently-generated 128b keys.
mircea_popescu: in other news,
there's apparently such a place as humble,
texas.
mircea_popescu: afaik it's space before so " ((" rather
than simply "(("
mircea_popescu: schedule will
then not merely "mix"
the P bits but also explain how
to separate
the R bits out of E.
mircea_popescu: the more i
think about
this whole serpent business,
the more it becomes evident
that
the ~only~ way
to have a cipher (not encryption, ie, asym keys, but enciphering, ie, simmetric keys) stronger
than serpent is
to ~mix rng bits~. ie,
the weakest cipher is
the one where len(E) = len(P), and
they're all equally week, and 1 serpent worth.
to go stronger, you must have something
that has len(E) = a len(P) + b sorta
thing.

trinque: pretty cool lobbes. I don't know
that I've heard anyone report yet
that it didn't boot for
them. I've still got more work
to do
to make
the genesis.vpatch unform across runs.
lobbes is going
to be road
travelling for
the next few days so may not be able
to respond
to pings right away. However I'll be reading logs and will respond
to any pings upon return
