mod6: anyway, i guess thats not very redic. i just had it in my mind that a man comes in to buy shotgun. pays, leaves with shotgun. doesn't do very much good if it's still at the store when you need it.
mod6: used to be... now probably like 700-800 maybe.
BingoBoingo: And 870 when I left was anywhere from $250 to $1500
mod6: lol. i was buying a fishing pole in Show Low the other week... a guy put an 870 on the counter for "Lay-away". I was kinda blown away that still existed.

BingoBoingo still laments the lack of reddit bags off shore as I go to visit the harmonics lab
asciilifeform: face visible, so you can sorta tell the occupants apart
asciilifeform knows what orig pantsuit was, but always pictures it as a sort of jumpsuit, no arms, zips up all the way at the nose , leaving only eyes exposed, gigantic pants
BingoBoingo: New York has done nothing in the interim to redeem its city or its people
BingoBoingo: In 2003 between my junior and senior years of highschool I wrote a piece of music that my computer compiled only for the faggot running the concert to butcher my short biography at the time. http://www.voxnovus.com/60x60/2003_International_Mix.htm
mircea_popescu: well, she partnered with "i was in the situation room!!!! SITTING THERE!!!! WHERE WERE YOU >?!?!?!?!"
mircea_popescu: meanwhile at mp compound, "martha stewart is the one with the conviction and the late night cable tv infomercials. hilary clinton in the one with the failed bids to everything" "you seriously expect me to distinguish these two ? how ?!"

mircea_popescu: (incidentally, for the midden diggers : that "club kids" crew actually invented the pantsuit. yes it's true hilary stwart wore it on tv before going to jail, so it became popular with her fat old white women crowd. but before she could wear it, someone had to make it -- and they did. "here, this is the unitard. This and a hat was basically the whole thing. You can get different hats and I guess paint your face to look differe
BingoBoingo: I'd take banksy a lot more seriously if he caught the bad side of the feds, won on appeal, touched the republic, then decided he could stack his own chairs just fine as he proceeded on his moon mission ☟︎
mircea_popescu: now i can't even find it anymore. talk about fade-out.
mircea_popescu: where the fuck is that line, i recall putting the dork's current fake media effort in the logs at some point, for the 0 readers 0 anything lulz.
mircea_popescu: it's true nobody but ny outfits with ~0 readership or influence a la http://trilema.com/2017/party-monster/ ever mention it. but it seemed to me more the case of "look at st james' desperation to pretend like he's hanging on" than any sort of active pushing.
BingoBoingo: mod6: That is my present residential ip
a111: Logged on 2014-07-19 02:47 Pierre_Rochard: WHCD stands for White House Correspondents Dinner, where journalists go to pretend like they’re doing shit
mircea_popescu: you read http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/ny-news-banksy-painting-self-destructs-london-20181006-story.html sorta thing in the http://btcbase.org/log/2014-07-19#761410 MATTERS!!! vein ? ☝︎
BingoBoingo: As opposed to another john oliver turning parody into cancer
BingoBoingo: I just have trouble seeing what is supposed to make banksy cool
BingoBoingo: As best as I can tell banksy does this vague anti-capitalist, anti-fascist schtick to much pantsuitist adoration while a substantial number of nytimes-ish media folk seem to be in on the seekrit
mod6: 404 of them :D
mircea_popescu: well yeah but i mean... so he was on simpsons. i dun see the logic.
BingoBoingo: If you go on 60 minutes, I assume you are going to have them read the articles of surrender while the girls affix their cock cages
BingoBoingo: He did an intro for the Simpsons
mircea_popescu: but yes, sure, i can see the oedipian tragedy of weev.
BingoBoingo: I use weev as the example for the tragedy of him having touched the republic and missed the point.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Banksy is as best as I can tell unrepentant Pantsuit scum working for USG.blue
mod6: (alf's patch reground onto phexdigit -- for my peronsal use only at this point)
BingoBoingo: And one thing that clicks off and on with me is how very much Qntra as a herald and wire service is very much not a blog
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo fwiw i believe bansky makes a way the fuck better example than weev.
BingoBoingo: With some low stakes matters like the cannabis piece I trust myself to do the rewriting, hence the long turn around time. For a piece on Republican doctrine, the republic's gotta weigh in on a draft
mod6: Also, I finally ate the whole block chain again with my node; it's currently syncing the final ~2000 blocks. Should be back up and running fully in the next day or two. Yes, totally got a full back just in case.
mircea_popescu: start with a theoretical idea of blog, resign to how it practically works.
mircea_popescu: hey, forum forces changes in people ; i used to do multiple articles/day (even have days with 12+!) ; nowadays do maaaybe two a week. it's what it is.
BingoBoingo: I can't effectively read anything without having reread it first, and I can't write pieces over 300 words without needing to rewrite them.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, with the blog business I have resigned myself to the medium's resistance to my filling it. Treating the blog as a notebook that I happen to let others read (A habit I have been suggesting Latinas mulling the blog hobby adopt) I accept there is no shame in rewriting.
mod6: I'm just sitting over here, pondering The Foundation monthly address...
BingoBoingo: I remember reading the original mice and men piece on Trilema and thinking "I gotta start fixing myself"
mircea_popescu: remember back in 2013, when the power-rangers genuinely thought htey had an existence, of their own and by themselves, entirely outside of my say-so ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo that article's call-list also reminded me of like, http://trilema.com/2013/of-mice-and-men-revisited/ and such great lulz
BingoBoingo: Anyways, having stepped away from the shovel and rereading I realize I also left out any timelines of the frog boiling
BingoBoingo: I'll look into that too, since moving to mp-wp should have alleviated that.
mircea_popescu: but the main issue is that this reads like an approximately sorted succession of conclusions. painfully absent a) the logical justification for the various sentences and b) a very clear indication of structure, how they all work together ; from this b there would then flow a much better a.
mircea_popescu: also, dubious expressions, a collection : "to understand that why they want" ; "if your words actual words are avaible" ; "manufacter a pretext" ; "lack anyway to know" ; "the manufactered insecurity" ; "maladapted in ways invite bullying."
mircea_popescu: and don't be the sixth.
mircea_popescu: also i wouldn't give http://trilema.com/2016/and-they-wont-fucking-yield/#selection-67.90-67.101 & co obscure grupuscle any voice. freeze peach, really ? five morons talking about "things" "as if they were things" dun make "things" anything.
asciilifeform: grr, #9e3779b8, the 1 flips. i'ma leave this alone until proggy.
asciilifeform: can similarly do for the other right-hands.
asciilifeform: likewise, e.g., entire w(1) term will disappear if you have (XOR B E G (RL11 (XOR A D F H #9e3779b9 0)) == #9e3779b9 ( the 1 dun du nuffin, as 9 is odd)
asciilifeform: will leave the others as exercise.
BingoBoingo: !Q later tell nicoleci please use irc instead of linked in messaging
asciilifeform: if you have d,f,h, such that a == d xor f xor h ( or if you like , a xor d == f xor h , or a xor d xor f == h , it's transitive) then a term disappears from the eqn ☟︎
asciilifeform: cleaning up the above : a, b, c, appear directly 1ce; the rest --only as recurrence terms.
asciilifeform: test is straightforward, you take yer vintage serpent and feed in k1,string, get ciphertext1, k2,string, get ciphertext2, and observe that the ciphertexts are same (cuz key expanded to same thing)
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i'm baking a proggy that shits out sister keys, if it still dun make sense, you can wait till its birthed and try yourself.
asciilifeform: but the rest, appear-directly 1ce.
asciilifeform: err, strike that
BingoBoingo: If the censorship resistance piece survives peer review, Imma test it on some orcs and start using it as my explainer to heathens for why the fuck I am in this hell hole
asciilifeform: ditto, term b only appears directly in w(1)
asciilifeform: diana_coman: look at the recurrence, term a appears directly only once, in w(0)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if we can agree to walk the key in same direction, we get same answ
diana_coman: ale for the choice of underlying primitive polynomial but I'm still fuzzy on what goes on in there exactly
a111: Logged on 2018-10-29 16:19 asciilifeform: so all possible inputs where this holds , result in the same inflated-key.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-29 16:18 asciilifeform: so! for instance ! if a, d, f, h are such that xor(a,d,f,h) = 0, then term a no longer appears in the equation at all !
diana_coman: basically I get http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-29#1867091 BUT can't yet follow it to http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-29#1867092 mainly because it seems to me that the effect of A is basically in fixing d,f,h (so that xor(a,d,f,h)=0); in short: wouldn't a change (of any number of bits) in a trigger (if imposing xor(a,d,f,h)=0 still) changes further in b-h so that the resulting key schedule is different? theoretically that would be the ration ☝︎☝︎☟︎
a111: Logged on 2018-10-29 16:52 asciilifeform: a proggy that takes a 256b key and shits out its 4+ sister-keys, prolly wouldnt hurt, either; if somebody can be arsed to write.
diana_coman: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-29#1867144 -> asciilifeform, do you mind outlining how you see this? I'm still chewing it all but atm I have trouble fully grasping this. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: on the other hand, entirely unclear to me why the fuck we're discussing some [evidently buggy/misimplemented] program or my own inept handcalculus. either we agree a system of n equations with n unknowns is determinate or we don't and that's the end of the matter.
mircea_popescu: if we manage to fixate on a specific datapoint we'd prolly benefit here.
mircea_popescu: i don't actually follow your proggy any ; regardless, the values it spits dun seem to agree with what i expect.
asciilifeform: except that you did the key walk backwards.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: your 1st 'lmao will have to redo' is correct.
mircea_popescu: by now, covered all the possible combinations of 4 bits (ain't that many) -- but never fell on the mp.py 1010.
mircea_popescu: lmao ima have to redo this. apparently im terrible at handmaffs
asciilifeform: dun have to believe proggy, do it with pen, and write the troof table for xor if you must.
asciilifeform: yer example dun go with the arithmetic on my planet, no matter how i define 'x'
asciilifeform: plox to show for which pair wrong output
mircea_popescu: unless you're willing do debug the .py, it's spitting out wrong values.
mircea_popescu: i guess this'll have to rest then.
asciilifeform: i dun currently know how to make it clearer.
asciilifeform: you're xoring Kbits distinct (if lowest kbit is 0, and there are no symmetries in the message) strings into a Kbits-sized hole.
mircea_popescu: i honestly have nfi what you're talking aboot.
asciilifeform: btw 'message gets xor'd with self' is not whole story, what you're doing is asking 1 bit to store 3 or more , this dunwork
asciilifeform: in that step, yer message was [1, 1, 1, 0], it got rotated by 1 place, and is then [1, 1, 0, 1], and that's yer buf after 1st step.
asciilifeform: ( keep in mind that [1, 1, 0, 1] is 11, we print the bits in ascending majority. can reverse if it makes moar readable, if you like )
asciilifeform: after xor for that step
asciilifeform: try the proggy, it will make sense, i suspect
mircea_popescu: i confess i dunno what teh breakdown is, here.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: that's the k in my example, neh
asciilifeform: ( ty Mocky btw, it's what got the whole thing moving )
asciilifeform: yer bits got xor'd with selves and turned into 0s.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it'd be resolvable if that's actually what you had. but in fact you dun have.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you agree that if i give you 5 equations with 5 unknowns, this is in fact resolvable ?
a111: Logged on 2018-10-29 19:39 asciilifeform: pretty handy proof , however, that the xor liquishit on the right hand side of those serpent eqs, doesn't conserve entropy !
asciilifeform: you lose the info as it gets xor'd with rotated copies of self.
asciilifeform: knowing the key and the ciphertext tells you almost nuffin about the plaintext, cuz it's a write-only-memory, lol
