mircea_popescu: <nubbins`> actual luxury doesn't take out ad space in GQ << this is really just a more benign and socially acceptable restatement of alf's meta-nsa thesis.
asciilifeform: nubbins`: 'luxury' isn't quite the concept i had in mind, but 'if this cpu flips a bit, kingdoms fall'
nubbins`: actual luxury doesn't take out ad space in GQ
asciilifeform: as they shouldn't be.
asciilifeform: anything less, i don't have any interest in signing my name on.
mircea_popescu: we don't talk about that (tm)
asciilifeform: anyway there is a reason i don't work on wallets
asciilifeform: i actually don't much like the rf-loudness of pc
mircea_popescu: i don't imagine the wallet can ever be anything but pc.
mircea_popescu: mats these aren't really intended to be multiuser systems.
mats: im under the impression that ecc doesn't mitigate the attack
asciilifeform: and i actually don't know of any system-on-chip that includes one
asciilifeform: i don't even see 'rowhammer' as a security item, as such. just an indicator of 'this system is built on snot and bubblegum'
asciilifeform: anyway -it doesn't have to be a marvell-
mircea_popescu: and it's not in -otc for the reason any bot is not in any channel : admin didn't ask for it.
asciilifeform: Chillum: and if you can't get those, new line of work
asciilifeform: (that's usually how you get cut-tapes from vendors who don't sell'em)
Chillum: you can't cure stupid
nubbins`: it's not like i don't contact Franmar when i want to find out where to buy bean-e-doo
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as you can probably guess, i won't be making it just yet.
asciilifeform: nubbins`: this is my working hypothesis, marvell doesn't sell cut-tape
asciilifeform: 'marvell' per se doesn't turn up much either.
mircea_popescu: o wait i forgot, 20mb won't be used, it just needs to be there to not be used. right right.
mircea_popescu: Chillum if you absolutely can't find one i'll ok you to get one from our warehouse at dpb
danielpbarron: i don't have a doc for 0.5.3.1 unless it counts to have one for the pre-release patching of 0.5.3
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: old buggered mechanical satas aren't quite as nice, but certainly usable. the thing definitely sources sufficient amps for them
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno anyone that doesn't have a "dead" old sata laying around.
asciilifeform: <nubbins`> wouldja believe this is the first piece of kit i've modded that /isn't/ a synthesizer? << notice the unpopulated row of pins at bottom end of pcb? those are gpio's and you can attach random strange to them
mircea_popescu: "o what's this ? fuck it, don't need it. uh... wait."
asciilifeform: nubbins`: http://imgur.com/dR3tx16 << technically it wasn't really -bricked- unless you had to do the boot-via-xmodem thing
mircea_popescu: seems a new set, haven't dug.
asciilifeform: send>40 faux usg academics up the river for 20+ eyars << weren't they chinese? or is this a different set of hucksters this time
nubbins`: wouldja believe this is the first piece of kit i've modded that /isn't/ a synthesizer?
mircea_popescu: nubbins` ain't fixing something great ? almost better than having made it in the first place!
mircea_popescu: http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=28-03-2015#1076586 << also a criminal entreprise, but something tells me tough on his bosses enemies bharara isn't about to bust out the rico and send>40 faux usg academics up the river for 20+ eyars a head.
mircea_popescu: also it doesn't load.
mircea_popescu: you don't say!
ben_vulpes: nominally, at one point in history, you weren't allowed to lead at a milonga until you'd been more or less given permission from the other leads in town.
ben_vulpes: who sez they don't use algos anymore, eh?
mircea_popescu: (the funniest thing about this is that not having read the logs, he can't help but wonder about it lol)
Chillum: don't quote me out of context lol
Chillum: it involved sticking your fingers in your ears and yelling "I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!"
mircea_popescu: no, you don't. you just imagine you do.
Chillum: just make sure you remove the bootloader so they can't reflash it
Chillum: I could offer raspberry pis, but you would need to VPN your own internet connection to them, I don't want bitcoin/irc dudes using my home internet lulz
asciilifeform: Chillum: can't speak for others but i in particular am interested specifically in migrating -from- aws
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: but i don't expect to see this
ben_vulpes: if you haven't, stop in here and expose your ignorance for all.
mircea_popescu: and whatever customers may "have come to expect", bitcoin is too valuable to cater to that in breach of security and safety. so, options that are by their nature insecure shouldn't be provided at all.
mircea_popescu: that idiocy was easily excusable in 2009. meanwhile, we just don't do that.
Chillum: funkenstein_: you don't. Buy when you contact the API and provide your API keys you want that encyrpted
Chillum: you can control the keys in ssl. You don't have to use existing authority chains you can make your own
mircea_popescu: funkenstein_ ssl is for any application where security theatre is +ev and security itself doesn't matter.
mircea_popescu: i don't think that's a supported usecase as of yet ? mebbe i'm behind here.
mircea_popescu: but a debate doesn't become religious by declaratory relief from having to think about it.
Chillum: It is clear I have stumbled into a religious debate. I have no more interest in changing your mind about SSL than I do with you changing my mind. I will run SSL on my bitcoind API if you don't mind.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 0day isn't a cryptodirectorat affair
mircea_popescu: maybe it just doesn't look like what you expect is iall.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform didn't you use to bemoan the fact that "no valued crypto stuff is ever leaked" ?
mircea_popescu: now, this entire "yeah the usg is your main enemy but whatever, you don't really want to protect your fucking tweets from them anyway" worked to propose turdstack = pancake.
Chillum: it is for perfect forward secrecy isn't it?
mircea_popescu: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Log/2015_March_20#Cogobuy << wikilulz of the day. guy makes article about bn dollar chinese company, is told "This is an encyclopedia .... Not a website advertisement service, There are a million and one ways to advertise your company and this place certainly isn't one of them"
mod6: !t m s.mpoe
nubbins`: !t m s.mg
nubbins`: i doubt kakobrekla wants to do it, since he doesn't idle in -otc :D
nubbins`: felipelalli here's a question. you bake a cake. why didn't you bake your neighbour one?
felipelalli: PeterL: replacement, not backup? hmmm, but if it is a replacement, why it isn't in #bitcoin-otc so?
nubbins`: felipelalli why otcbot isn't in #bitcoin-assets channel?
felipelalli: Why assbot isn't in #bitcoin-otc channel?
Chillum: I am sure the change makes it run faster which is great for embedded devices that don't need to worry _too_ much about malware on the machine
Chillum: can't I just MITM the connection without that?
Chillum: "Removes OpenSSL Handshake for RPC commands" Isn't that important?
nubbins`: funkenstein_ the guy wouldn't sell it to me. total fraud.
nubbins`: first comment: "Don't know if this is an actual notebook or a laptop" hahaha
nubbins`: <+pete_dushenski> No longer shall the egg shell be made from delicious Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate. It will instead be made from disgusting, foul, vomit-inducing “standard cocoa mix chocolate”. <<< you think that's bad? get this: in the usa, cadbury chocolate is manufactured by /hershey's/. and they don't even get the milk from jersey cows.
mircea_popescu: trinque kinda why sane people don't travel into rogue states without an army.
mircea_popescu: "but our records don't show us selliung you one"
mircea_popescu: "how come you have something" != "how come you told us earlier this income is extempt when it clearly isn't"
pete_dushenski: you're saying they can't ask "from whence ferrari?"
pete_dushenski: it can't ask "what was this line from this person from on your bank statement" ?
mircea_popescu: it can't ask me "hey where you got your money from". unless im a politician and submitted some sort of "this is what my fortune is" statement.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't "dilute" anything. if you have 1 bit of entropy per byte, it puts out one byte every eightish bytes.
Chillum: you can't create entropy with an algorithm
pete_dushenski: and so what if they're all size 6 because there wasn't more leather
pete_dushenski: ^i'd wear this t-shirt actually
pete_dushenski: hey, we also know a guy who prints t-shirts, don't we...
pete_dushenski: nubbins`: AND WE KNEW A GUY WHO PRINTED T-SHIRTS
pete_dushenski: http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-03-2015#1074455 << a h/t recipient is you!
asciilifeform: Chillum: if you can predict wave from turbulent flow (e.g., water faucet) don't settle for small change. aeronautics and naval folks would like a word with you.
Chillum: the debiaser can't tell entropy from pattern
asciilifeform: and wouldn't it be in a sense counterproductive? as in, burglars will often themselves glue film to windows before breaking them, to silence the sound
mircea_popescu: Chillum we don't trust it because very suspicious corp / closed turd.
mircea_popescu: first time ppl that wander in here and a) aren't going to spaceghost the bitcoin ; b) aren't retarded.
danielpbarron: these days there isn't that much to verify that a shipment hasn't been tampered with; a shipping container is "sealed" with a metal peg coated in plastic and stamped with some numbers
assbot: Proof That Mycelium Knows How To Make A Better RNG For Its Entropy Dongle. And Isn't. | Contravex: A blog by Pete Dushenski ... ( http://bit.ly/1y61MkH )
danielpbarron: I don't like humor in professional communication. Not in code comments, not in technical manuals, not in user interfaces. << from the reddit thing on the mushroom thing
Adlai: danielpbarron: you don't have to touch the seal if the packaging itself is easier to replicate
Adlai: maybe the launch codes. but the nuke itself doesn't fit in an envelope
mircea_popescu: maybe you can't detach the seal.
asciilifeform: Chillum: very hard to reproduce the identical swirls << l0l. you don't need to reproduce the seal. only the box.
