BingoBoingo: Even
then more apt metaphor for
the operation would be a drain and fill
trinque: it's right next
to
the johnson rod
douchebag: "i hope hes not referring
to
the fucking motor compressor"
douchebag: asciilifeform: Are you referring
to
the motor compressor
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, honestly, i still suspect
there's a clean way
to flash-in via
the factory pads. however...
a111: Logged on 2018-06-11 15:46 asciilifeform: one interesting observation, is
that
the update mechanism lets you flash in arbitrary crapola into 'rw' section ( it simply won't jump
to it if it doesn't pass rsa(sha256(payload)) ) . so
theoretically could put a nop sled
there, ending with jump into
the magic half of unlock routine. and
then expose
the
thing
to beta/gamma, and perhaps in a few months it will Do
The Right
Thing
a111: Logged on 2018-06-12 19:51 cnomad: well
the most likely non-firmware approach would be finding a way
to glitch/fault it
BingoBoingo: douchebag: Spiders and
ticks aren't
the only
things
that bite. Fumigate.
douchebag: BingoBoingo: Well,
that's what
the doctor
told me
mircea_popescu: apparently we'll end up having
to organize a defanging lab.
BingoBoingo: <douchebag> It ended up being a spider bite << How sure are you about
that? Prolly safest
to
tent
the place and fumigate
to be sure.
douchebag: A friend of mine is great w/ hardware hacking, reverse engineering, binary exploitation, firmware exploitation, ect.. He has a
ton of equipment, if asciilifeform wants I could have him come in here.
mircea_popescu: cnomad, outsourcing, rather
than buying capital goods.
mircea_popescu: let's not repeat
the mistake
that sunk america ; we don't even have an america
to sink.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-12 19:44 cnomad: If someone popped
this chip, I'd value it at _least_ 200k USD. we're
talking about invasive analysis
that requires equipment, weeks of non-stop work, and experience
douchebag: Never knew
that, I
thought
they were parasites
douchebag: I've been around, just been busy attending
to various issues irl
mircea_popescu: afaik alphabet all lives
there, notwisthanding "tech corp" pretense.
mircea_popescu: well, you live in dc, send a few girls over
to
talk
to
the dweebs.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, nice. like in one hand, and piss in
the other...
mircea_popescu: as far as i'm concerned,
two
things remain : republicans and slavegirls.
mircea_popescu: "i don't believe in factuality of anything besides usg" is
the cheapest brand of shit
to eat.
mircea_popescu: and
this is not anglotardation ; at some point a decade ago i actually offered a full scholarship. NOBODY claimed it.
mircea_popescu: recall how it never
took less
than a year for
the fucktarded public
to even catch on ?
mircea_popescu: you know, i did
this on
trilema what ? a dozen
times ?
two ?
mircea_popescu: and somehow, all
these inept fucktards sit somewhere "online" on
the world wide dweeb, and manage
to not notice
that "hey,
there's some people somewhere , can burn 10s of ks of
this shitty green crap just out of boredom. when's
the last
time our "respectable" "employer" ok'd a $100 expense account ?!?!?!"
mircea_popescu: sure. but anyways,
to circle back : i'll match. but i also expect exactly nothing
to come of it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, and ?
they ever won a confrontation with us navy ?
they ever won without even needing
to confront, like
the chinese ?
mircea_popescu: if he's a
tradesman. if he's a kid getting in
the way of adults, nothing will EVER be worth anything. not ever, no matter what you do.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, a
tool is worth
to
the
tradesman his life.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, if "worked"
then where are
these
things it worked for ?
mircea_popescu: recall
the
time i bought
that dork a ranked reddit account ? recall
the
time anything came of it ?
mircea_popescu: and you know, like shinohai -- if you prod him he'll do some movements, like electrocuted, disembodied frog legs. and if you don't he'll sit. and
then wonder why it didn't work out and why he's being so badly persecuted.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile nothing's happening, and
time goes by, and
trinque in
the end had a point, no door's open forever.
mircea_popescu: my bet would be, he's working a shitty job in some shitty company and dreams of
the day "things will happen".
mircea_popescu: nevermind
the referee. explain
the incentive structure.
mircea_popescu: nothing.
there's not going
to be any work encouragement
through payment, because
the inca has expertly stuffed
this channel full of nonsense on both ends. "Free money" from one "nothing
to buy for it" from
the other,
the zek has no use and no need and consequently no conception of money at all.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, consider what
the previous bitcoins bought, shall we ?
mircea_popescu: there's no way
to cut
this : either
they do or
they don't.
mircea_popescu: notion was you working
to self-pacify yourself, really.
mircea_popescu: they won't work ; and paying
them is counter-productive : it encourages
them
to not work.
mircea_popescu: recall
the days kakobrekla honestly imagined b-a actually has some sort of future ?
mircea_popescu: where are
they ? even fucking
today ? a year later, and all
the "make mp eat crow" one could conjure up, where is it ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, i'm just saying,
the
thing you discuss, with "has costs", works a ~certain~ way. and if you recall how NOPENOPE NOPE!!! kanzure was wrt getting his inept bs in functional shape, you realise
that
they will NEVER do any work.
mircea_popescu: cuz im supposed
to be just as retarded as any other usg-produced neet.
a111: Logged on 2018-04-13 20:14 zx2c4: i'd be wary of any 'deal'
that's different from: 'i'm given money. you're given warm feelings of having helped
the internet.'
