phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-02-21#1411699 experimental though, i think the only uploaded patch is this guy http://btcbase.org/patches/phf-shiva-swank ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2016-02-21 03:16 phf: ok so http://btcbase.org/upload now works. takes seal and vpatch and saves it to uploads patchset http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=uploads. uploads patchset inherits from experimental, which in turn inherits from stable. those who'd like to upload a patch are welcome to give it a try and let me know if it doesn't work.
phf: but so far it's been just me uploaded announced patches whenever i see one
mod6: ah. you're missing a number of the later patches, but maybe that's because it's "shiva" ?
phf: I might've missed some, but I also I've never quite settled on a working "press". I'll revisit it once log settles
mod6: no worries, just wanted to make sure you're aware.
phf: So patches might be there, but not in press, or in a wrong patchset, or...
phf: Thanks!
shinohai: curl -F 'vpatch=@foo.vpatch' -F 'seal=@bar.sig' http://btcbase.org/upload <<< neat!
mod6: XXX btcbase upload ^
mod6: anyway, yeah, i'll find sometime in the next week maybe to try this one out personally and rebase if required.
mod6: thanks a lot for looking through that.
asciilifeform: in other nyooz, my 'ada 2012 ref man.' is here.
asciilifeform: costliest dead tree i bought in ~decade.
asciilifeform: and fully 2x the thickness of the ada '05 one.
asciilifeform: to no surprise (for folks who've been paying attention), unlike just about every other known case, the extra mass is all goodstuff

asciilifeform: https://files.gpg4win.org << guess how they package the source.
asciilifeform: srsly i could not make this up if i tried !
asciilifeform: motherfucking exe !
asciilifeform: but they also have normal-looking tarballs? wtf.
asciilifeform: why is there a .mid music file in there ?!
asciilifeform: and a dll loader 'helper' l0l
asciilifeform: who can be arsed, go, read.
asciilifeform: circus.
shinohai: #fail
asciilifeform: BEST OF ALL,
asciilifeform: that src tarball (latest) is ~6MB, and DOES NOT INCLUDE GPG SOURCE
asciilifeform: or any other deps
asciilifeform: INSTEAD, it has a manifest list and a loader...
asciilifeform: SHA1 manifest, of course.
asciilifeform: win.

mod6: which ref did you get?
asciilifeform: there is exactly 1 2012 ref
mod6: ok
asciilifeform: but careful, don't throw out the ~rationale~ for '05
asciilifeform: the '12 is published as an addendum to it
asciilifeform: (dun ask me why)
mod6: this one?
mod6: Ada 2012 Reference Manual. Language and Standard Libraries: International Standard ISO/IEC 8652/2012 (E) (Lecture Notes in Computer Science / Programming and Software Engineering)
asciilifeform: it.
mod6: by S. Tucker Taft and Robert A. Duff
mod6: ok
mod6: thx
mod6: i did get my stripper-DFA book btw.
asciilifeform: neato
mod6: needed for the shelf.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> SHA1 manifest, of course. << lol. i do some shitshoveling at a place that still uses md5 and sha1 at all times.
mod6: "larger digests?shaw!"
mod6: *pshaw
asciilifeform: for remote loading of src ?!
mod6: well, i guess technically, gradle doesn't even rely on digests at all.
mod6: it just looks to see if there is a newer version number by filename itself in the remote repository, and if so, pulls it.
mod6: so like "foo-1.0-SNAPSHOT" v. "foo-1.1-SNAPSHOT", it'll pull that if you ask it to reload dependencies.
mod6: but if you have "foo-1.0-SNAPSHOT" vs. "foo-1.0-SNAPSHOT" with a different hash because of different build, won't care, you don't get new file.
mod6: you have to explicitly tell it to --rebuild-dependencies or whatever the fuck
asciilifeform: barfalicious
mod6: oh yeah. i have bile coming out of my ears on this shit.
mod6: especially when it fucks with me like today.
mod6: guy made a name change to a fucking abstract method that I use from his package.
mod6: broke my shit, then couldn't get my shit to work until I had to refresh everything.

asciilifeform: v is somewhat like ada, in that 'ugh too much pain, sweat', 'not for people!1111' etc reaction from virtually everyone you show it to
asciilifeform: there is not an escape from this, nor ought to be.
mircea_popescu: somethinglikethat.
asciilifeform: i expect to see similar reactions, to, e.g., 'p'
asciilifeform: 'whaddayamean no keychain! whaddayamean specify ALL inputs and outputs'
mircea_popescu: keychain was a kludge from end to end. vaguely reminiscent of bitcoin "accounts"
asciilifeform: in no way different.

mod6: further, i feel like there is a sense of pride that comes from taking the time to do something right, as opposed to doing something quick and dirty.
mod6: no one should feel bad about doing something the way that it aught to be done. unfortunately, this is not often the case with many things.

BingoBoingo: Even shitty graffiti if it persists projects the image "they" aren't in control.
mircea_popescu: yeah, but even if tomorrow you're the king and queen of earth, you'll be stuck trying to control pu shipments, want it or not.
mircea_popescu: it's one of those.

mircea_popescu: well not "anyone", but sure.
asciilifeform: point was that it is quite trivial, and the whole orchestra is a waste of dough.
mircea_popescu: not exactly. lafond makes this point, re the difference between a police force and a militia. you can't expect the police to protect you against organised violence. it works entirely and strictly for disorganised violence.
asciilifeform: there are no hoodrats-cum-nukes.
asciilifeform: the thing sorta implies organization definitionally.
mircea_popescu: two people have an argument and one gets really angry, police can fix this. random derp gets overexcited tries to ship smoke detector shavings to ex gf's mother, police can fix this. ☟︎
asciilifeform: recognize, shavings dun set off neutronograph
mircea_popescu: by the time powerful entity sends ddos wave prior to dirty bombs, police's not a useful expense.
asciilifeform: they are ~specific~ to fissiles.
mircea_popescu: jus' sayin'.
asciilifeform: (incidentally, geiger tubes in, e.g., train stations, were sop for ~decades~.)
asciilifeform: this here's different.
mircea_popescu: the multi-bn-dollar neutron-detector-at-shipping-interfaces programme, going for well over three decades already, has captured exactly 0 anything.
asciilifeform: afaik.
mircea_popescu: but much like in the case of "metal detectors" in airports, going for about as long, the goal was never THAT.
mircea_popescu: the goal was the same : it gave good basis for the eventual "globalisation", which, without the derpy "peace movement" post nuke detonation would have likely never existed
mircea_popescu: this whole am
mircea_popescu: aml/kyc idiocy is fed exactly off that.
mircea_popescu: and similarly with the "metal detector" security in airports. tis for the cows, not for the metals.
asciilifeform: well the metal arches are theatre
asciilifeform: the neutronographs - not advertised, concealed behind drywall etc.
mircea_popescu: but the fact that there is a "greater good" pretext to force say germany to put them in,
BingoBoingo: In other lols Sanders beat Clitler in Indiana. GOP settled their party divide first 111!!!

mircea_popescu: is what's needed to then force germany to "approve" gpg4win oficially.
asciilifeform: well yeah, basic usgtronics
mircea_popescu: so yeah, it is theatre, just, you're not the demo.
mircea_popescu: judge is the demo ; and bureaucrats are the demo ; and so on.
asciilifeform: 'choose, either us or greenglassocalypse'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this'd handily explain a buncha things.
asciilifeform: e.g., the astronomically expensive gc/ms poison detectors, etc.
asciilifeform: theatre for the chair-warmers.
mircea_popescu: quite. this argument that "oh, never seen" ... guess what ? priceless relics in temples also kept in dark, never seen!

mircea_popescu: lest cynicism takes hold.
asciilifeform: su was illustration of what happens if you fail to keep the priests in.
mircea_popescu: the unravelling of the vaccine story recently is rather symptomatic. a society that no longer accepts the "vaccinarnos es cuidarnos entre todos" is, to use proper terminology, ungovernable.
mircea_popescu: like any theatre, state necessitates willing suspension of disbelief.
mircea_popescu: and otherwise, the world is too harsh to face without theatre. at least for most bipedals.
mircea_popescu: (it is pretty fucking harsh. slavegirls may attest.)

Chicago: It could be worse. There is a series of checks, tests and configurations I employ before putting a spindle into production. This is because I have a battery of Seagate Barracuda ES.2 drives from circa 2008/2009 which I still want to use. Some of them are just bad, from known firmware problems and the others need to somehow prove themselves to be *good enough* to use for scratch data handling.

asciilifeform: next 32 bits, but also keeps the rest of the limbs at all-zeroes. '
mircea_popescu: it's a thing.
asciilifeform: bug!!1111111
asciilifeform: yeah, just so HAPPENS that BUG makes fingeprint on old gpg of randint modulus key appear sAME.
asciilifeform: forfuckssake.
asciilifeform: bug!.
mircea_popescu: hey, it's a seclist! what do you want them to discuss.
asciilifeform: the malfeasance that couldn't be any plainer than this daylight ?
asciilifeform: but, bug?!
asciilifeform: and didja know, bugs only affect interesting users
asciilifeform: e.g. apple security hotline
asciilifeform: and pgp update key.
mircea_popescu: lalala i can't hear you. what ?
asciilifeform: well, that.
mircea_popescu: look : they're what they are. this is pointedly not us. the difference between man and and is that ant is specialized physiologically. man can drop what he's doing and do something else, or pick a different set of tools, or approach, or whatever.
mircea_popescu: and does THE ONE THING.
mircea_popescu: these people are what has come to mean in english "scientists". they will do the thing they do, no matter what.
asciilifeform: i just dun get it, most of'em aren't paid to swallow ft meade cock
asciilifeform: not even indirectly
mircea_popescu: nothing to do with anything.
mircea_popescu: as children, they stuck their head in a ring. then they kept adding rings.
asciilifeform: what ring
mircea_popescu: now - https://asoutherngirlinsouthafrica.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/3311565227_51a8bf7bf9_o2.jpg
mircea_popescu: an order to remove rings is equiv to a death setence, for them.
asciilifeform: l0l!
mircea_popescu: it is a fact.
mircea_popescu: permanent tissue damage.
mircea_popescu: so they'll fuck around with the rings, forever. hopefully their children will be raped into sanity. i'm doing a little towards that, if the children happen to be easy on the eyes and female. that'sall.
mircea_popescu: the "western civilisation" may survive only in this limited sense.
mircea_popescu: but meanwhile - no, the Βασιλεύς Βασιλέων, Βασιλεύων Βασιλευόντων is not paying any of them anything.
mircea_popescu: mircea_popescu> and does THE ONE THING. << anT i mean, obviously. heh.
asciilifeform: long, long ago, when i was quite unemployed, i wrote to Βασιλεύς Βασιλέων, Βασιλεύων Βασιλευόντων and offered my services
asciilifeform: he replied with form letter.
asciilifeform: so i unzipped and pissed.
asciilifeform: so it boggles my mind that other folks did not do same.
asciilifeform: why fellate hitler for phreee ?
asciilifeform: incidentally little birdie told me recently that nsa 'TAO' pisses on american nondiscrimination laws and never employs foreign-born folk
asciilifeform: so mega-unsurprise
asciilifeform: but lulzy
asciilifeform: (re 'rule of law' etc.)
mircea_popescu: "it's what we do".
mircea_popescu: also, afaik "american nondiscrimination laws" work strictly to protect enumerated groups. women, blacks, what have you. "foreign born white men" isn't on the list.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: letter of the law is, i quote, 'RACE, COLOR, RELIGION, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN'
asciilifeform: (u.s. equal opportunity commission.)
mircea_popescu: read the fine print.
asciilifeform: yer thinking of the private sector
asciilifeform: usg has own proclamation
mircea_popescu: oh oh.
asciilifeform: that uses this verbiage.
asciilifeform: aha. civil service.
trinque: yes, but the ways in which "success" is "measured" involve "enough blacks/women/... ?"
mircea_popescu: i never quite understood this "place of birth" fixation in [always B list] secret services.
asciilifeform: ask them not me (tm)
asciilifeform: but this is classic, 'proper aryans only!'
mircea_popescu: eh, half the time there isn't who to ask what color to paint the walls, let alone substantial matters.
mircea_popescu: it is classic "we're too inept to ever do anything so let's fuck around with paper all day instead".
mircea_popescu: i could see (maybe) why you wouldn't want non-citizen grunts in the army.
asciilifeform: except those are a dime a dozen
asciilifeform: i had an office across the hall from no less than a major
mircea_popescu: though that was much more of a concern back before transportation
asciilifeform: ru-born.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform amusingly, 100 years ago one couldn't be ru major unless german :D
asciilifeform: 200.
mircea_popescu: w/e.
asciilifeform: anyway once you think about how american sigint actually works, when it works, it makes sense
asciilifeform: (via schmoozing and 'iana committee' sabotage, which calls for pedigreed yacht rats, not maths folks, etc.)
mircea_popescu: bullcrap.
mircea_popescu: this "pedigreed yacht rats" exists strictly in your imagination, as a derivative product of 1970s Burda.
mircea_popescu: [for this side of the iron curtain folks : insanely popular fashion mag because it included patterns for all items so pre-industrial girls and young women could make them at home. first western mag to be published in russia ; and in china. easily beat anything cosmo ever was or could be.]
asciilifeform: they also exist at least in, e.g., annapolis (seaside town i passed through recently)
asciilifeform: and elsewhere
asciilifeform: not wholly mythical animals, these.
asciilifeform: i watched them alive.
mircea_popescu: sure. but not quite the same holy bible now and there as it was then.
asciilifeform: not quite, no.
mircea_popescu: and from the same period : http://67.media.tumblr.com/553d044a935e96986194c201744734bc/tumblr_n21vgdx3nk1r38h27o1_1280.jpg
mircea_popescu: i can almost taste those stockings, being what EVERY girl had for a decade or so. each. and every. one.
asciilifeform: at any rate, i can easily see why nsa would escew folks who might have actual culture
mircea_popescu: what the fuck was that sitcom called, hm.
asciilifeform: and non-'esl' memory etc.
asciilifeform: *eschew
asciilifeform: single-minded ss man must have no mother, no father, but the fuhrer
asciilifeform: or sumthinglikethat
mircea_popescu: also bs.
asciilifeform: then i'm at a loss re explaining the fixation.
mircea_popescu: it's easy.
mircea_popescu: fuck i found it. thanks god for internets!
mircea_popescu: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086793/ << there you go.
asciilifeform: wats that
mircea_popescu: that is the place where your "yacht rats" thing actually exists.
mircea_popescu: nowhere else.
phf: ahaha, how very true
asciilifeform: bbbut it exists
mircea_popescu: phf i'm like the emperor-god xenomorph from the future, i go "what was that bullshit tv series from the early 90s with all the boats" and wihin minutes a woman pops the name. unfuckingbelivable.
asciilifeform: i went to school with the fuckers
asciilifeform: saw them, alive.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i suspect your chief problem is that you go to school with your own internally emulated versions of irl fuckers.
mircea_popescu: and you demand fiction make sense, and so end up with very... unrealistic versions of said fuckers.
asciilifeform: in which way are my emulated fuckers inaccurate ?
mircea_popescu: in the way where they make sense in your emulation in places they make no sense irl.
mircea_popescu: then this error compounds, because it's selective.
asciilifeform: i mean, these kidz ~did~ have vacation houses, did end up in princetonyaleward, etc.
mircea_popescu: then next thing you know, meta-nsa the yachting club.
asciilifeform: sure!
mircea_popescu: you have any fucking idea how much WORK sailing is ?
phf: sometimes i still see these santa barbara americans though, old men with "silver hair" driving a Mercedes, or mostly on the metro here. they always look so lost and small, like they walked from the screen, "the last American hero" style. except instead of like punching the car window and discovering that it hurts, their credit card is denied or something, and they are like "what is that???"
mircea_popescu: actually fuck that. you ever been on a yacht ? by been i mean > 6 hours.
asciilifeform: 'work' is something you do against your will.
asciilifeform: to pay billz.
mircea_popescu: trust me. after the 9999th winch tick, it's against your will.
asciilifeform: next thing mircea_popescu tells us fucking is work.
asciilifeform: at any rate, quite obviously not all 'yacht rats' take up sailing
asciilifeform: it is, after all, exercise.
mircea_popescu: think about it in these terms : 1. i can sail, and actually used to be / could be very good at it (right body type) ; 2. i could afford a yacht, what. 3. i don't either. ???
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu doesn't fly airplanes either
asciilifeform: he has theorems.
asciilifeform: can't be arsed. etc.
phf: *last action hero, rather
mircea_popescu: airplane is merely annoying to fly. too many blinkenlichten and shit.
mircea_popescu: yachts are actually hard.
asciilifeform: hey that bleuriot or what was it, that i sat down in, had 0 lights.
mircea_popescu: in the air ?
asciilifeform: on the dashboard.
asciilifeform: none provided.
mircea_popescu: yeah well, maybe they only turn them on when airborne to save on headlamp fluid.
asciilifeform: it had fewer gauges than my car.
asciilifeform: lel
mircea_popescu: oh, the thing with the steel wires ?
asciilifeform: aha.
mircea_popescu: you didn't notice the anal dildo. those things are "viscerally piloted".
asciilifeform: that was in the bench, i almost sat on it!111111

mircea_popescu: i want him giving a shit like i want cold sores.
asciilifeform: by that logic, why did i bother to write 'theory' page on phuctor ?
asciilifeform: perhaps a literate man should already know the theory..?

mircea_popescu: you can do whatever the fuck you want, including help yourself to a double serving of his wife
mircea_popescu: he can THANK YOU FOR IT, and he can HELP. that is it. exactly strictly and absolutely it, nothing more to no degree.
mircea_popescu: IF we ever want his political opinions on things, which is a very remote distant and unlikely if, WELL ASK FOR IT!

asciilifeform: i may have said this before, but,
asciilifeform: i have a ~strong~ suspicion that there are q == nextprime(p) keys in there.
asciilifeform: somewhere.
mircea_popescu: first things first. the ssl keys thing - both github and search.
asciilifeform: iirc jurov was doing something with those.
asciilifeform: the nice thing about ssl and ssh pubkeys is that you can harvest them.
asciilifeform: in the wild.
mircea_popescu: with the first half, yeah. we also need a general purpose multiconverter.
asciilifeform: (port scanner)
mircea_popescu: anyone wanna write that ?
asciilifeform: ask henninger ! l0l
asciilifeform: srsly that would be lulzy
mircea_popescu: there already exists a "various ssh formats" conversion ; need to bolt on base16/10 number and pgp format.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform had she had the common sense to wot i would.
asciilifeform: technically there is no need to convert them to pgp format
asciilifeform: i can throw them in as a specialcase.
asciilifeform: (and does it actually make sense to phuctor them ~together~ with pgp keyz?)
asciilifeform: in other lulz,

asciilifeform: 'There are multiple vulnerabilities in ImageMagick, a package commonly used by web services to process images. One of the vulnerabilities can lead to remote code execution (RCE) if you process user submitted images. The exploit for this vulnerability is being used in the wild. A number of image processing plugins depend on the ImageMagick library, including, but not limited to, PHP's imagick, Ruby's
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, it makes sense. primes are primes, factors are factors.
asciilifeform: rmagick and paperclip, and nodejs's imagemagick.
asciilifeform: '
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the thing's been a blessing for hackers for many years now.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform by the way, do you have any kind of werker to keep adding primes to the 8ball ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as a matter of fact i do
asciilifeform: currently on other box
mircea_popescu: nice. so then let all these things converge. the server ssh keys ; the user ssh keys ; the pgp keys and the 8ball werker.
mircea_popescu: eventually we will have all factors.
mircea_popescu: ALL factors.
asciilifeform: it is of pretty limited use tho, expanding 8ball from 1st mil primes to 10 mil yielded... what.. 2 pops ?
mircea_popescu: no matter.
mircea_popescu: utility is not measured by results.
asciilifeform: re imagemagic, this is gold:
mircea_popescu: this is research not engineering.
asciilifeform: ''ImageMagick allows to process files with external libraries. This feature is called 'delegate'. It is implemented as a system() with command string ('command') from the config file delegates.xml with actual value for different params (input/output filenames etc). Due to insufficient %M param filtering it is possible to conduct shell command injection. One of the default delegate's command is used

mircea_popescu: same source also.
asciilifeform: with these people.
mircea_popescu: aha.
asciilifeform: crab, pincers.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, just get the 8ball expander to work constantly, fill a core or something.
mircea_popescu: and will be nice if 8ball is published also, say daily.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: good idea.
asciilifeform: (it working 100%, but right now shuttled manually.)
mircea_popescu: and finally, you do have a knob to fill in factors into 8 ball manually ? if not add it in
mircea_popescu: sooner or later someone ELSE is going to report an actual factor.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'gwerns' are a dime a dozen.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally-1 : would you prefer an actual dump ? i'm contemplating just doing posts in place, is this too much load for phuctor ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: better to chug it in on my end - impervious to www overload
asciilifeform: whereas feeding'em in at the mouth end risks stalling when there are hordes of gawkers
mircea_popescu: incidentally-2 : you absolutely should introduce a (faux) directory structure of the type /ABCD/ABCD/ABCD/ABCD/ABCD/ABCD/ABCD/ABCD where each superior "directory" lists the subs it contains, and the last level lists actual keys. google will utterly lap this up. and it's useful in the general, passive sks.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform aite, will send you dump then.
asciilifeform: the abcd thing is an idea. but i wasn't really going for an sks clone
asciilifeform: considering that we'll be jettisoning the pgp format.
mircea_popescu: costs ~nothing, it's just an interface atop what you already have neh ?
asciilifeform: it can be done, sure.
asciilifeform: i'd have to reorg the db again.
asciilifeform: (i don't presently parse out the subness of subkeys)
mircea_popescu: do it, you;ll be amazed at the "artificial intelligence" alphabet, inc employs.
mircea_popescu: "something made by ten year olds on a rainy day"
asciilifeform: http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q2/229 http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q2/230 << moar lulz re us
asciilifeform: infuriating idiocy
asciilifeform: 'similar observations for factors are
asciilifeform: probably a red herring: an artifact of the process used by these
asciilifeform: factoring projects rather than part of how the keys were generated.'
asciilifeform: and the continuing mention of openssl
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform he has a point tho.
asciilifeform: where it never touched
asciilifeform: but yes the large numbers are composites, this is obvious in 5 seconds to a kindergartener
asciilifeform: how else.
mircea_popescu: in point of fact composites are broken into not-necessarily-prime chunks, which is more of a function of the random state of the breaker than anything, and the actual bitfield offers no information re the process that made the key
asciilifeform: random ints are divisible by 3, 5... etc nyooz at eleven.
mircea_popescu: well so it is obvious, what of it. he can state it.
asciilifeform: the insistence on 'software bug' whereas it is plain as daylight ~why~ there are 32mirror keys, and why they are for whom they are, is the riotous part.
mircea_popescu: all he's saying is that using THE FOUND FACTORS as some sort of lithmus for the key production process is a dead end. which it is.
mircea_popescu: ah, well. it's their schtick, what.
mircea_popescu: " Could it be that all of the broken e keys were generated by OpenSSL from year 2000 or earlier? " << it could not be. a) none of the keys come from openssl ; b) most keys are post 2000.
asciilifeform: plain to anyone without a mouthful of obamacok
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform understand, the most important quality of doing things openly is that every derp everywhere is now able to try and stuff it into his peculiar headbox. there's a lot of "number worshipping" undercurrent i detect in there, sort-of the educated version of "lottery playing systems", which is more repugnant to the civilised man than the political slant. even so.
mircea_popescu: let the fuzzers fuzz.
asciilifeform: reads ~exactly~ like lottosystem folk
mircea_popescu: and in other weird news, keybase somehow has > 50k users. wtf.
asciilifeform: but artifully, deliberately, as misdirection
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i perceive no such deliberate / artful anything.
asciilifeform: well, what, he did not run the keys through pgpdump? did not see the dates ?
asciilifeform: has nfi that openssl was never in gpg ?
mircea_popescu: indeed not. problem ?
mircea_popescu: also not.
asciilifeform: (or closed pgp for that matter)
mircea_popescu: what, you expect people went to your 3rd grade ? how many people were there in that class! 20 ? 30 ?
mircea_popescu: whole world didn't fit!
asciilifeform: what ~did~ he use for his analysis ? tea leaves? sheep entrails ?
mircea_popescu: he writes numbers on paper. problem ?
asciilifeform: because what, he is a pashtun, never seen computer ?
mircea_popescu: how is it your business how he runs his household!
asciilifeform: not my business, i suppose, whether the man is coprophagic, but he forgot to wipe his mouth, it seems.
mircea_popescu: it's the internet.
asciilifeform: and now i have trouble distinguishing his mouth from arse.
phf: i has a working keybase crawler..
mircea_popescu: phf i already mostly extracted the userbase.
phf: kk
mircea_popescu: if you wanna do something, do the gwern thing, punkman disappeared ?
phf: what gwern thing?

asciilifeform: another thing that really needs 'a doer' is the hunt for ancient pgptrons
asciilifeform: that might hold the magic.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that will have to be user-provided.
mircea_popescu: otherwise you're sending men to blow glass with lungs, warmed with arse.
mircea_popescu: send men to where they have leverage - such as by exposing a whole swathe of usg "law enforcement" derps.
asciilifeform: there weren't so many of'em
mircea_popescu: at some point, esp the smaller markets, were 2/3 usg by mass
mircea_popescu: like these things go.
asciilifeform: classic
asciilifeform: it wouldn't astonish me if it were 99%.
mircea_popescu: phf anyway, at the very least that thing needs long term seeders ; which is a mitzvah.
punkman: it's on archive.org so probably safe by now
mircea_popescu: $gettrust archive.org
deedbot: L1: 0, L2: 0 by 0 connections.
mircea_popescu: entirely unsafe.
punkman: 2tb will do in a pinch, does it have to run in polite mode on shared server?
phf: well, as of right now it's not pulling at any rate
mircea_popescu: punkman pgpgram me your ssh key, i'll add it and you can log into account. nothing really happening there atm, so you should be ok.

asciilifeform: perhaps it worked at some point. i have deeply nfi.
mircea_popescu: yes, perhaps the moon is made of cheese.

mircea_popescu: sure, it works. and hanno boeck's ( http://trilema.com/2016/psa-hanno-bock-still-a-deceitful-shitbag/ )'s hands also work. in principle like that.
mircea_popescu: they just don't do anything useful is all.
asciilifeform: boeck took henninger's thing and ran it
asciilifeform: afaik that was all.
mircea_popescu: mno. he took it, and DIDNT run it.
asciilifeform: there was an output in his shithub iirc
mircea_popescu: and then claimed to have ran it, but then his claim ran into the jagged shores of reality when he could not produce ONE SINGLE VERIFIABLE STATEMENT
mircea_popescu: in support of that claim.
asciilifeform: ah yeah last year's boeck
asciilifeform: this year's boeck reluctantly, grudgingly, ran the fucking proggy
asciilifeform: on what looks like just our set of phucked keyz, handily loaded from our www.
mircea_popescu: no he didn't. he didn't get as far as removing the dsa/ecc keys out of the sks dump to get a proper count of rsa moduli
asciilifeform: or rather, a pruned (how, i didn't bother to see, but smaller) subset.
