decimation: ascii, of course the bureaucrats love the default to be that everyone is a criminal; you are exempt at their discretion
asciilifeform: if you live and die by the key, it is worth your time to build your own
asciilifeform: i'd be tempted to recommend... mine. but right now i've only a handful of them, and they aren't for sale yet.
artifexd: Not right now, but the hope is eventually, yeah.
asciilifeform: keys to something reasonably valuable?
asciilifeform: breaking at least 500 of these regulations
asciilifeform: in fact, taking a laptop on an airplane probably qualifies you for an iternational tribunal as war criminal
asciilifeform: b. One or more than one internal light detecting element; and
asciilifeform: a. One or more than one internal "laser" diode;
asciilifeform: processing" and having all of the following:
asciilifeform: let's campaign to have this enforced!
decimation: you will never see rc transmitters with custom crypto because of the Wassenaar Arrangement http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wassenaar_Arrangement
decimation: nevermind, apparently in the last few years they have started to use 2.4 GHz DSSS and FHSS
decimation: RC transmitters use analog FM, no encryption
Mats_cd03: i don't get it, because RC manufacturers have been doing just fine, and wifi/bt is just idiotic unless you live in the sticks and/or want more bandwidth from the unit
decimation: both wifi and bluetooh are terrbile for low-latency flight control
Mats_cd03: ;;later tell mirceau_popescu 'challenge and response' meaning encryption, but more specifically encrypted spread-spectrum signals. many consumer drones are equipped with just wifi or bluetooth, which are comparatively easy to attack
decimation: is the fact that "demonstrators" were paid actually discredit something?
MisterE: "White House spokesman Jay Carney echoed that sentiment as well, saying, “There is strong evidence suggesting some of these [Eastern Ukrainian] demonstrators were paid.”"
decimation: the real problem is that it makes it impossible to differentiate talented managers of resources from fools who happen to be friends with the bezzle-kings
Mats_cd03: sounds like a great way to accelerate inequality and increase renting
decimation: wrt housing: USG pumps 30 year loans; forces banks to give them to everyone; USG is then horrified to find that house-prices have been bid into the sky with 30 year money
asciilifeform: mp spoke of this not long ago
decimation: perhaps the system will be formalized in the future, when rich socialites will pay to have a position in Google, like the British Army
decimation: They beg to get $100k to pay $100k, in the best case
decimation: just like Mr. Zuckerberg's campaign to import foreign engineer-slaves - who will beg to pay $100k to pay $100k
asciilifeform: so they externalise the cost
asciilifeform: decimation: these people want servants, but won't pay for the servants' quarters
decimation: why does she have to living in the middle of SV? So that Elon can get a burrito for $6?
decimation: Not to mention, there are thousands of other localities where $12 an hour easily pays for housing
decimation: This "U visa" amuses me. Someone foriegner commits a crime - and that suddenly qualifies the victem for a US green card??
decimation: the woes of the rent controlled apartments in palo alto
decimation: ascii - that sv story is full of lulz
ThickAsThieves: i think it's just tricking me to spend more credits reloading!
ThickAsThieves: your blog thinks i am not a human being
ThickAsThieves: it otherwise feels like it could be filmed in the style of Pushing Daises or Better Off Ted
ThickAsThieves: i do like the mood of it, though the more "adult" aspects feel a little out of place
ThickAsThieves: mp your pilot idea seems like it had some threads missing
mike_c: half the btc and double the numismaticness. sounds like a deal!
gribble: #20222 Thu Mar 27 14:19:15 2014 nubbins` SELL 1.0 2013 1btc silver Casascius 1Ag1 @ 2.3 btc (None)
cgcardona_: yep *cue the 'if you don't have the keys you don't have the btc* mantra
danielpbarron: i sent a test transaction of 1 mBit and it showed up no problem, so i sent the original transaction again
danielpbarron: wasn't showing up on the blockchain
danielpbarron: it said it didn't go through the first time
danielpbarron: i accidently double sent a transaction, luckily to someone I knew irl
cgcardona_: the first time it happened I moved all my coins to blockchain.
cgcardona_: yea I've been having transactions just get stuck in 'pending' for hours cause of their off blockchain stuff.
danielpbarron: i have had sketchy stuff happen with coinbase recently too
danielpbarron: you shouldn't use piper to store large amounts
cgcardona_: i'm just erked cause I've been wanting to get my coins off of web wallets. I trust no one at this point pretty much.
danielpbarron: it's more annoying to not have the paper than to be ripped off for a little coin
danielpbarron: i had to hack it a little to make it stop printing the ugly extra private key and url at the bottom
danielpbarron: i use it to print 1 mBit slips to hand out
danielpbarron: maybe he's too busy to fill orders
danielpbarron: i heard the piper guy was at one of the conferences recently
cgcardona_: at least I know i'm not the only one left hanging.
cgcardona_: ok well I guess that's 'good' to hear that someone else hasn't received any confirmation recently.
mircea_popescu: well, "your". just this idle example you made up obivously.
cgcardona_: yea that's what I thought you meant. Just wanted to clarify
mircea_popescu: cgcardona_ nah, to your raspberi pi wallet
asciilifeform: i can envision folks telling tales of adventure: '... and then i took my C off its safety...'
asciilifeform: jborkl: a special little gift for folks who want to take your keys by force.
asciilifeform: mike_c: no need to disassemble. it comes in a clear chassis, with blueprints/sources
mike_c: open a textbook and pick your favourite... << or wait a month and disassemble a cardano.
asciilifeform: beat it out << this is why any apparatus that doesn't include a scram zapper is sad.
cgcardona_: mircea_popescu: are you referring to my cold storage comments? (just trying to make the connection with what you're saying)
jborkl: unless I beat it out of you, but that is a whole other story
jborkl: and you assuming you know what I made the address out of, and you would not irl
mircea_popescu: whilke this approach often creates half-decent "art" (known in this space as lulz) it neve actually makes a bridge.
mircea_popescu: cgcardona_ the more formal objection would be that you're trying to construct a bridge through the process of "here are some bricks i found, i wonder which cool way i could stack them together"
asciilifeform: mike_c: you (and anyone) also have access to analogue rng. open a textbook and pick your favourite...
jborkl: I will post up the adress tomorrow
asciilifeform: how long does it take to move a sliding window across 'gutenberg' archive and bruteforce.
cgcardona_: i figured just putting all of my btc behind a 'hello w0rld' brain wallet would be good to go
mike_c: oh, of course. you have access to cardano guts :)
asciilifeform: jborkl: do this, and let's see how long the contents last
jborkl: why not pull a brainwallet, put it on a pi and make your wallet out of a bible verse. They are everywhere and you only have to remember what you part you put in
ozbot: Unsorted collection of various Cardano related updates + spurious pics pe Trilema - Un blog de Mirce
cgcardona_: oh I see that's by my Bizarro world clone cgCARDANO - very nice
asciilifeform: (yes mp some. not sure what he did with them)
cgcardona_: i turn on loud music and shake my booty to generate extra entropy myself
asciilifeform: thermal tape makes great one-time pads
mike_c: asciilifeform: what do you use to generate your wallet?
cgcardona_: *sorry for the caps*
cgcardona_: now i know why it's taking so damn long. THEY'RE SETTING UP A THERMAL CAMERA ACROSS THE STREET FROM MY HOUSE
asciilifeform: or rather, broadcom's on-chip turd
jborkl: thermal paper tends to degrade over time
asciilifeform: likewise the 'built in rng' is... raspberry's
cgcardona_: checking the links now
asciilifeform: except now anyone can read your 'cold wallet' (as it is printed, naturally) from across the street.
cgcardona_: are you talking about candling?

asciilifeform: ;;google optical tempest
asciilifeform: do you see where i'm going with this?
cgcardona_: easier than https://bitcoinpaperwallet.com/ which involves me having a dedicaded computer and printer
cgcardona_: i think it's a sweet concept
cgcardona_: did you see the video? http://piperwallet.com/
jborkl: so I did not think that applied
cgcardona_: the wallets not on the pi
cgcardona_: not if you're trying to create cold storage from an air locked box
