mats: oh lawd
mats: does keybase have your private key, popmechanic?
popmechanic: no
mats: ok good
BingoBoingo: popmechanic: DO you work for Keybase or do they just offer email addy's at their domain.
danielpbarron: that means his key was generated in web browser via javascript, I think
popmechanic: Apparently they just offer email addresses? Not sure, first time I’ve used the service. I totally understand and am prepared to agree with a predjudice against a service like this, because they’re going to end up sitting on private keys. But it’s optional, and actually a pretty handy way to manage a few aspects of PGP management.
popmechanic: Correct, I believe the key is generated client side.
trinque: eh if it was generated in a browser it's still unsafe
trinque: how can you be sure you're running the JS they intended? (or that their JS intends well)
danielpbarron: it is possible to make your own key offline through keybase but I just don't see the point
BingoBoingo: popmechanic: What OS are you on? Javascript RNGs are notoriously unsafe. As unsafe as Pirate Party RNGs
popmechanic: Mac OS
mats: popmechanic: piling on a bit here, but i suggest running it through Phuctor, a service that attempts to factor keys with weak moduli -- http://nosuchlabs.com
BingoBoingo: popmechanic: Do you run Mac Ports?
mats: to date, Phuctor has broken 300+ keys. see: http://nosuchlabs.com/stats
popmechanic: I do, yes.
BingoBoingo: popmechanic: Build GPG, preferably a 1.4.x series version and do the key generation thing again
BingoBoingo: !up popmechanic

mircea_popescu: because who the fuck else would not know what fuel he wants to burn
mircea_popescu: in any case the generality comes at an efficiency cost.
decimation: well, a turbine can burn anything. but it's true that if you are burning raw crude it will foul your turbine and require much more maintenance
decimation: because of all the solvents and other shit in the oil

BingoBoingo: They still run through the middle of my countryside, still belch foul shit
decimation: yeah but probably all diesel now
decimation: it seems the real problem with burning crude or heavy fuel oil is that if you have enough civilization to refine the oil, you can make it into much more profitable products
decimation: the net effect being that the amount of 'heavy fuel' (bunker b and c) has shrunk compared to old process - making it more expensive than just using diesel
decimation: this isn't really true in areas that have no advanced refining available
mircea_popescu: soo... imo musk's electric car has failed to reach the sort of growth patterns and penetration goals it needed to survive. it therefore peaked sometime last year, and it will go the same way all the numerous attempts at an electric car since the 20s have went.

decimation: kerosene, more or less
mircea_popescu: iirc the "ethanol jet" thing got canned
asciilifeform: jp-a
mats: >A kerosene-based fuel, JP-8 is projected to remain in use at least until 2025. It was first introduced at NATO bases in 1978. Its NATO code is F-34.

decimation: sure, turbine burns kerosene just fine
asciilifeform: fuels haven't really changed (for the better) in a century.

asciilifeform: (for worse? sure! where i live, what comes out of the filling station is 10% ethanol ~by law~)
decimation: but the abrams tank would burn jp-8 just fine

asciilifeform: thing is, gm/ford vs tesla is a 'best horse in the glue factory' contest
asciilifeform: american automobility has a very short life expectancy as a going concern
mircea_popescu: (plenty of fish being the 5th or so dating site sold in a decade, which "Dating site" is the twelfth or so wheel on the social media band wagon)
decimation: the only american autos that 'actual people' buy are trunks
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform precisely.
decimation: trucks
mircea_popescu: <ascii_field> but this brings us back to the question of whether mr s has ~intellectual authority~ << intellectual authority is a very simple thing in capitalism. see it at work in how the "blockchain size increase" was tranched : once someone says "this is how much it costs", the derps willing to talk were separated from the people willing to pay.
mircea_popescu: on a tinier scale, just happened above re tesla, too.
decimation: yeah, but what market? the 950/1000 block rule?
mircea_popescu: in the end, it reduces to "does he have the intellectual authority to bluff". well... do you have the intellectual authority to call it ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: unless i misunderstood, your implication in earlier thread was that satoshi (in the person of his key) could pop up, propose some arbitrary strange, and have such carry weight on account of him being the famous satoshi
mircea_popescu: decimation i mean the original, end of 2014/2015 dispute, about "herp derp we'll raise the block limit"
decimation: ah yes
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you misunderstood.
mircea_popescu: satoshi could pop up, propose some arbitrary strange, and have everyone (everyone that matters, ie, with money!) presented with the dilemma : do they buy up the stash ? or do they move on to the strange ?
mircea_popescu: this is the only legitimate way to resolve disputes.
mircea_popescu: if his strange sucks, he has nothing to stand on.
mircea_popescu: if his strange does not suck, you can keep talking about its strangeness all you want.
asciilifeform: but suppose that it is something quite like bitcoin circa '09.
trinque: it would be an incredible thing if the man has the keys and has shown this much restraint
asciilifeform: which did not suck (at least mathematically) in any particularly discernible way
mircea_popescu: trinque not that incredible.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform all i can say is i'd consider it fully.
mircea_popescu: otherwise, not even the us supreme court rules without a case.
asciilifeform: 'does not suck' today, i dare say, is a higher bar than in '09, when there was no bitcoin
mircea_popescu: surely.
asciilifeform: and no $maxint pumped into the storage battery
mircea_popescu: on that point can there be no debate
mircea_popescu: but 5bn is NO SORT OF MAXINT
asciilifeform: ^ point
mircea_popescu: it's a minint in this game.
decimation: ^ yes, bitcoin is still peanuts
asciilifeform: esp. given as it is denominated in zimbabwean unit
decimation: which satoshi realizes, of course
asciilifeform: (i.e. there are probably not 5bn 'turkey-buying-capable' dollars on planet)

asciilifeform had a thought: possibly, if satoshi's stash were ~larger~ than it is, he could be considered 'beyond reproach' if he were to surface and propose a fork, on the logic that he could not stand to gain from any deception. but it still would not rule out usgification, or simple error.
asciilifeform: at the risk of beating the record of mircea_popescu's pessimism on the subject of 'future bitcoin': i currently suspect that protocol change might be the proverbial 'stone so heavy, god cannot lift'
asciilifeform: not because it is impossible to devise improved mechanisms - but on account of the 'pascal's wager' involved
trinque: him staying silent during things like the blocksize "debate" speaks volumes imo

trinque: yeah, I have to say I find him having been found as the most likely
asciilifeform: if this - then we can conclude that he had the backbone to pull the pin
asciilifeform: (and if not, we will likely learn about it soon enough)
trinque: if he is the VS/winderz derp, how is it that he generated unbreakable keys?
trinque: fuck knows I don't know how to approach it if he did
asciilifeform: trinque: go, break the other winblowz schmucks' keys
trinque: but *someone* ?
trinque: if one guy at the NSA is the only one who can...
trinque shrugs
trinque: what I'm saying is that runs contrary to the derp theory
asciilifeform: trinque: i won't comment on meta-nsa, but classic nsa works on statistical aggregates rather than individuals - at least when dealing with mass collections rather than targeted shots

asciilifeform: one may speculate all day re: the particulars of usg 'glass artillery', but it suffices to say that such is not fired at a crowd
asciilifeform: (there is a kind of 'valley' in between the ordinary weaponry and the 'glass' - e.g., tor diddles which would 'expire' immediately if publicly revealed, but are good for plenty of 'parallel construction' meanwhile, etc.)
trinque: right, say there's a decent way to do factoring. I think I pulled that one from your blog
asciilifeform: but the point i was trying to make is that your cpu is not transmitting to the proverbial black helicopter 24/7

ascii_field: irrelevant.
ascii_field: at least - to therealbitcoin.
ascii_field: can buy a fucking computer for that.
ascii_field: or 12 pogos

ascii_field: which is what is in my 'hootoo', costing less than half
jurov: 32? then yes, expensive

jurov: back to pogo, all mSATA drives i see are 5-6cm long and impossible to fit inside
jurov: what's supposed to go there at all?
ascii_field: msata ?
ascii_field: pogo has no msata
danielpbarron: the top pops off
danielpbarron: i left that piece on
ascii_field: has normal 'laptop' sata
danielpbarron: drive will stick awkwardly out the top
jurov: ah. so msata won't fit?

ascii_field: the naked pcb thing is what is normally called 'msata'
ascii_field: no such jack in pogo
ascii_field: only laptop-sata (bottom of photo)
jurov: but 2.5" drive won't fit
jurov is confused
ascii_field: jurov: it fits
ascii_field: did you remove the dust cover from the pogo ?
jurov: only with top cover completely off and pcb bare
ascii_field: don't strip the pcb, you need the plastic cradle
ascii_field: or the jack is likely to break off
ascii_field: if you have a peculiar drive that won't sit down in the cradle - post photo ?
jurov: so you say Kingston SSDNow V300 2.5" drive will fit in the slit? that's not possible
ascii_field: that is precisely the shape of the drive sitting in mine
jurov: can you post photo of whole setup?
ascii_field: i did, long ago; in the log
ascii_field: presently digging for it
jurov: that drive is 7cm wide and the slit in the cover is only 4.5cm
ascii_field: jurov: you must have something very odd going on. plz post pic
jurov: oh i get it now. the connector protrudes out of the cover
ascii_field: jurov: http://livedoor.blogimg.jp/jsp724/imgs/b/f/bf8da3a9.jpg << not mine - but this is what it will look like.

ascii_field: which
danielpbarron: jurov, /dev/root 109G 58G 45G 57% /
mircea_popescu: so the procuraderia de la nacion, which is basiucally the da's office, has this gated off entryway. in that entryway, stored two meters from the grating, eight five gallon plastic containers full of gasoline.
mircea_popescu: nevermind that i dunno where it's even legal to store gasoline in plastic.
ascii_field: ^ sop in usa
mircea_popescu: anyone can be a terrorist for the price of a quarter dollar cigar.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field in eu you can go to jail for doing that. gotta use metal.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: which metal ?
ascii_field: steel - sparks...
mircea_popescu: there's an alloy
mircea_popescu: i think its mostly tin
