sina: ben_vulpes: dtrace?
sina: hola
sina: RSA one?
sina: which this?
sina: nothing further to report
sina: some interesting reading here, https://blog.acolyer.org/2017/06/27/hijacking-bitcoin-routing-attacks-on-cryptocurrencies/
sina: weed is legalised in Nevada
sina: also: Complete break of RSA-1024 as implemented in Libgcrypt https://eprint.iacr.org/2017/627.pdf, "And 13% of RSA-2048 keys. Whoopsie!", "The new bit is showing that LtR sliding windows are a Very Bad Choice for modular exponentiation. Very nice."
sina: twitter quote from @i0n1c: "Ohh the irony that boot sectors are writable in Windows to support anti virus software" reply from @WeldPond: "'It became necessary to destroy the town to save it,'"
sina: if you write a systemd unit file with "User=0day", it launches the process as root. Pottering sez: "not a bug" ☟︎
sina: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6237 << "systemd can't handle the process previlege that belongs to user name startswith number, such as 0day"
sina: asciilifeform: you should use this new shell https://github.com/mitnk/cicada
sina: have a good day/evening tmsr
sina: tax lodged, off to get some dumplings and help a friend move stuff
sina: today is tax day in AU
sina: when mircea_popescu asks if you want to live long, or live well: https://archive.fo/9Mpdv
sina: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-30#1677535 << super interesting ☝︎
sina: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-30#1677417 << facts I am learning ☝︎
sina: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-30#1677394 << confirm ☝︎
sina: I guess there is no available "GDP/people who can afford brothel visits" metric
sina: GDP/capita in brazil is half of portugal? more money for the same skin
sina: I mean, from brazil to portugal
sina: really? I would've imagined the flow to go opposite direction
sina: mircea_popescu: I can't speak specifically of Portugal redditardation, only use in attempt of "try and argue it re drugs for instance.
sina: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-30#1677355 << no contention on this POV, will go in increments towards adulthood, learning along the way ☝︎
sina: but I will read the pimp article nonetheless
sina: sir where I live the sun is rising and where you live it may be falling
sina: clearly it's arbitrary
sina: rly? because in Portugal posession of an ounce of weed is nothing, here it's up to officer discretion (above 1oz is trafficking!), in US if you're black that can be jail, in Indonesia you could get death
sina: I think at this point, given countries like Portugal which have decriminalised a lot of drugstuff, it's clear the lines for drugs is just as arbitrary
sina: um sure? so the line for some drugs is drawn *here*, and other drugs drawn *there*, and depending on a similarly "nothing there" criteria, some peoples lives are ruined and others enriched
sina: it just so happens that this is where one of those lines is laid today
sina: well one can argue that all of the lines in "society" are essentially of the same arbitrary construct
sina: it wasn't all that long ago that we were doing just that in fact
sina: to clarify, are you trying to make the point that childporn shouldn't be prosecuted? or that the definition of childporn is overlybroad
sina: ah childporn. yeah they come down on that kind of stuff very hard here
sina: nobodies gonna kick down your door for watching pornhub or even bestialityhub
sina: and despite our local media being incapable of discerning an utter charlatan from a block of wood, those who could, did
sina: but you're still allowed to ridicule Craig Wright here
sina: we def got the wilting heat in summer, and little scorpions as you approach the equator
sina: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-30#1677338 << hey we're a Commonwealth country so I can't blame you for thinking such but we aren't as bad as the UK on this front! :P ☝︎
sina: for a sydneysider, 8 degrees C is essentially the siberian tundra
sina: so fucking cold here!
sina: np
sina: mircea_popescu: time to mess with gossipthing?
sina: hi shinohai
sina: ah mp
sina: morning tmsr
sina: signing off
sina: good morning/evening sirs
sina: https://cr.yp.to/cubeattacks.html

sina: mircea_popescu: *el paso theme song* why not both?
sina: I am sure asciilifeform would disagree of course, that it is remotely possible to ever secure anything :P
sina: same sandboxing techniques can be used to go a long way
sina: anyway, this was all just to answer ben_vulpes question about how you can make sure the "job" doesn't fuck with its billing supervisor
sina: "with this one simple trick" :P
sina: at the time I was v interested in tor hs, before it became completely obvious that GCHQ/NSA had ability to look across the whole onion, and I just wanted to demonstrate hey it is actually possible to not ride your bike into the side of the bus
sina: no, it certainly seems he wouldn't have :P
sina: is all
sina: which Ulbricht had done several times
sina: mircea_popescu: it was trying to prove at the time, that you could construct system in such a way that it can't expose its own info by amateur fuckups
sina: ah yep, sorry I think we are one branch further down the tree
sina: "oh apache listen on 127.0.0.1 now I am secure"
sina: due to shit sandboxing
sina: several times during operation he exposed the public IP of the hs
sina: mircea_popescu: it was more to prove the point at the time that Ulbricht was a numpty who couldn't secure his own ass
sina: https://github.com/sinner-/hidden-nginx
sina: grsec chroot sandbox + linux network namespaces
sina: (because of the sandbox techniques)
sina: nobody could ever deanon it even though they had shell access
sina: once long ago, I ran a tor hidden service that allowed anyone to execute any command they liked on it, as a deanonymisation challenge ☟︎
sina: you can run the command in a sandbox and track it with cgroups in linux
sina: oh the thing tracking billing?
sina: ben_vulpes: monitor?
sina: instead, IRC bot which accepts any shell command, tracks CPU time, mem used, block and network IO consumed and presents a bill
sina: I think this is a much more interesting idea than the IRC bot I was goign to make that plays chess
sina: but I guess you are assuming you'd never add a rando peasant
sina: in situation 1, I assume there is no bricktop and we exchange wotpaste directly
sina: good question
sina: "you do me" *me dies*
sina: and I am basically just grokking the thing less than a week ago
sina: it's because you have an implicit mental model of the thing and years of log context
sina: transitive peer recognition through trusting the fucker
sina: as B has fucked C and A and exchange paper with both of them
sina: I guess I was thinking of C tells A
sina: +wotpaste?
sina: so in your way of thinking, B is irc.freenode.net?
sina: DIDNT WE
sina: well it wasn't bits of paper, but wotpaste URLs are not so different?
sina: I did but in my mind that falls more under A fucks B
sina: ah right
sina: I mean imagine you have autonomous "acquisition" of ndoes
sina: that'd be much more difficult given your requirement for manual peer introduction?
sina: I get the feeling that the task would be much simpler if there was only 1 public IP for the whoel system where you could retrieve the results of whatever "job" you triggered
sina: I'm just trying to envision what a "one" is
sina: but both might spin up 5 "new ones" to do the task
sina: doesnt
sina: !sha256 <set of document URLs>
sina: needs 5 public IPs
