trinque: it'd be bad form to try to throw a genesis patch "over the wall" for this without taking the time to have the necessary threads.
lobbes: asciilifeform: I don't dislike. I was operating under the mode of "reduce log clutter (via not triggering $quotebot) if quote being referenced is ~10 lines away"
lobbes: but, I suppose in this situation, I may as well use the "username:" and forgo the quote
trinque: aha, people are going to be able to tell the context.
trinque: esthlos: there's also no sense in giving the thing a version number. the "version" is the patch the operator pressed to.
trinque: speaking of press, press needs to ask where to press as a parameter, and not have a default.

douchebag: Well, it's not complete so I didn't get that done yet.
trinque: there are "incomplete" items on everyone's blog here.
trinque: you latest crop of socially damaged derps will learn to communicate, and that's all.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: so get a load of this : i'm going uphill in the pitch darkness, you know, these complete hairpin curves, and WHAM! there's a fucking police truck, parked, searchlights etc, on THE WRONG WAY
douchebag: Alright, I can have that done in the next week or so. I'm currently using the rockchip box to host a webpage to troll someone, so I want the lulz there to continue to it's full potential
☟︎ mircea_popescu: so girl goes around it, therefgore also on wrong way, and the next thing there's a fucking motorcycle coming downhill.
trinque: heh damn. lucky his ass is still attached to the rest of him.
mircea_popescu: and there's these foot+ ditches on either side, there's no surviving as a bike.
Mocky: damn, I had a soccer mom in a mini van try to lane change on me without looking first just yesterday while riding
trinque prefers about 5000lbs of metal per vehicle
Mocky has skin in the game
trinque: I was driving on the highway once, tight traffic, and a guy comes by on a crotch rocket laying like superman on the seat, feet out behind him, weaves through the cars at close to 100mph
douchebag: trinque: also in theory, since I got RCE on lobbes bot, in theory I could have determined the balance of the bot if I decided to comprimise the system rather than proof of concept :^)
☟︎ trinque: what does his bot have to do with mine?
trinque: stop pulling your dick and do some work, nobody cares
douchebag: The wager was to determine balance of any other user
Mocky: yeah i've seen crazy shit like that, most of it in flordia. once saw a dude riding a wheelie on the interstate opposite direction. never saw his front tire on the ground
trinque: douchebag: you know, in theory my girlfriend could be fabulously rich, given she heard about bitcoin first in 2010. and yet.

mircea_popescu: i wonder how many unemplyable grads are filling online job applications while thinking "if only i had gotten 20k/50k/100k worth of bitcoin in 2010/2011/2012 instead of this stinking education toilet paper..."

lobbes: so, in theory, sure. But in practice you'd have to expend quite a bit of effort to find the gpg privkey in order to decrypt deedbot's challenge to determine the balance of that one deedbot wallet, which still isn't finding a flaw in deedbot, just good social engineering attack (e.g. picking a key off someone's person does not mean the lock the key belongs to is flawed)
douchebag: I could have got a reverse shell on the box though, is the gpg privkey for the bot not sitting on the vulnerable machine?
douchebag: I just don't think social engineering would be the right word to use for remote command execution
Mocky: couldn't be arsed sounds worse to me than couldn't find
trinque: properly, if he had lobbes key, he is lobbes.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, yes, the social engineering part is trying to downgrade the look at the bot (ie, ANY one key) to look at randos (ie, a CERTAIN key).
lobbes: douchebag: The 'social engineering' in my statement refers to leveraging the RCE to (painfully, because lobbesbot privkey does not control any deedbot funds, so you'd need -my- privkey, which does not reside on public toilet box you RCE'd into) use deedbot -normally- by becoming lobbes through key theft
lobbes: (lobbesbot privkey, also, does not reside on that box, but you know)
lobbes: but yeah, "could talk", bleh
spyked: lobbes, I am curious: how do you have lobbesbot self-voice then? do you do it manually?
☟︎ spyked: (I suspect there is no way to separate privkey storage from bot operation *and* automatically perform e.g. deedbot self-voicing; but I might be wrong)
trinque: spyked: one could make many voicing OTPs, and put them in a hopper for the bot.
☟︎ spyked: hm. so trinque, OTPs don't have any sort of expiration? the scenario I'm thinking of is that eventually my (for example) home ISP would do some stupid thing that would lead to the TCP connection going down. but that could happen in a week, a month or six from now, so I'd want that OTP to be valid whenever that happens.
spyked: if that's the case, then this semi-automated approach is pretty neat, actually.
trinque: I don't have a defined expiration time for them. If bot operators are interested in ^ maybe we'll go ahead and say it's 3 months, or whatever's sensible.
Mocky: re: "int64(4 byte)" should that be 8 byte? and "object (size of 80 bits : int64 followed by int16 followed by int16)" should that be 'size of 96 bits' ?

esthlos: now for your comments: getting rid of the defpackage was a bad oversight, no real reason. My guess why gpg is failing is because I'm using 2.2.4 while I think most of you guys use 1.x . Moving to 1.x is on my backlog, but it was deprioritized becasue I didn't want to spend the time converting my keys. Another oversight, I suppose

esthlos: in case anyone missed these lulz: if you pass --no-default-keyring to gpg but don't supply another keyring, gpg... uses the default keyring. and if you pass a keyring, it assumes it's in the home directory
trinque: woof. so it was trying $home/tmp/whatever ?
mod6: sooo... trinque, is the neg-rating on douchebag going to stand? because mircea_popescu has rented him a rockchip (right?) and according to the rules we laid out, I think we said that douchebag would be removed from access to the hardware.
mod6: mircea_popescu: thoughts?
trinque: what do you mean by "going to stand" ?
mod6: Is this a 'forever -1'?
trinque: I really don't like the idea of negotiating with anyone on what my ratings shall be
mod6: This is not a negotiation. Just asking what the deal is. Cause Pizarro is going to end up removing him from the hardware.
douchebag: I just need to set up an mpwp blog and post the work I already have done
trinque: if you follow the log lines I referenced back, you'll see exactly why I did it.
trinque: if you press me on terms I'll remove the -1, you risk creating a mommyprocess anyone with a negrate can appeal to.
☟︎ mod6: mircea_popescu: how should Pizarro handle this, in your opinion, given the last conversation about this?
☟︎ douchebag: I already have a webserver running on my pizarro box. I just don't know how I'm supposed to unpack mpwp
mod6: trinque: I only asked you, not as an appeal process, personally I couldn't care less. However, just wondering if you are going to remove that rating should the man do whatever in the next say day or two, whatever.
trinque: I think "nobody does business with any L1-negrated party" is a bit strict. folks need to be able to beat someone over the head with disapproval without removing their ability to take part in society by having done so.
☟︎ mod6: This is what mircea_popescu wanted it to be, regardles.
trinque: mod6: if I tell you, I'm giving someone I'm already punishing for weaselbehavior a defined mechanism to weasel further
☟︎ mod6: This is fine, my thinking is that he will be removed. If the rating changes at some point, then we will reconsider allowing him to be a customer.
douchebag: ./v.pl p v mpwp mp-wp_genesis.vpatch
douchebag: HEAD: mp-wp_genesis.vpatch not found in flow
trinque: (this is not even to mention that either he or the other guy was contacting me as tittynicks asking when their money will be sent, lol)
trinque: douchebag: since I can read, I can see a spurious "v" in that command
☟︎☟︎ mod6: that's fine trinque -- the extra 'v' is for 'verbose' mode.
mod6: it's not found in the flow because something is either wrong with the signature of the vpatch, or the signatory is not in the current wot.
trinque: if douchebag wants to appeal to me directly, he can.
esthlos: to butt in: should only patches with good seals show in the flow?
☟︎ trinque: mod6: contracts often have a cure period, eh? suppose it's "negrated party has $time to fix his reputation"
mod6: There is no contract here. I don't want to ask anyone about their ratings. Perhaps I shouldn't have asked what I asked there above.
☟︎ mod6: Was just trying to avoid (perhaps stupidly) some Pizarro gyrations.
mod6: Because I don't want us to ever ask someone about things such as this; their rating of someone.

☟︎ trinque: mod6: I don't mean there's an actual contract, just referencing the notion of "cure period"
mod6: And what I should have said is: In light of the douchebag being neg-rated by a someone, a TMSR~ Lord especially, douchebag will be removed from access. This may change if his status changes.

douchebag: No, I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong right now
mod6: What is it complainig about? Btw, I'm not sure that this projct even works with my version of V.
lobbes: re wot: I mean, the serenity of leveraging the wot, imho, is that it is a purely individual-to-individual thing by design. In this case, you have Pizarro (P) who has customer relationships with MP and D. D has been negrated by T on the basis of Tx. MP can either decide 1) Tx means enough to request P get rid of D, in which case P now determines if it values MP or D moar, or 2) MP decides Tx does not mean enough to request P get rid of D.

danielpbarron: i also have him at -1 for mouthing off to me in the eftard channel
mod6: and further, not even sure why you need a domain. (unless for some reason wp-mp doesn't work without one)
☟︎ trinque cares not; phf had just an IP for a long while
douchebag: If I'm going to run a blog, wouldn't it make sense to have a domain name that's easy to remember?
mod6: Depends on the audience maybe.
trinque: and douchebag, sounds like you have another lord from whom to ask forgiveness; pizarro account is still in peril
trinque: if danielpbarron has negrated
mod6: !!reputation douchebag
danielpbarron: looks like mp and lobbes more than balance it out though. +2 from each
mod6: true, but "any lord".
mod6: fwiw, i didn't even know ben_vulpes neg'd him :D
trinque: this is a pretty shitty reputation all around.
☟︎ mod6: well, i probably saw at one point, but forgot o.O
danielpbarron: i'm not married to the rating, will consider arguments
douchebag: danielpbarron: what's the exact reason you negrated me?
mod6: I would say, focus on trinque's task list. Then read back on the other neg ratings given and see if some repair can be done to your wot-status.
mod6: I'll be around for a bit if you need some help with v.pl.
danielpbarron: i don't know exacts, but you were talking back to me over in lrh around the same time you were polluting snr in here, and my +1 was preventing others from !!downing you
mod6: ok try this: ./v.pl f pd mpwp
mod6: see what it tells you
douchebag: it ran the command, no output. going to try verbose
mod6: crud, one sec. im guessing you have a separate .seals dir for the mpwp vpatch too right?
mod6: cause you will need that.
mod6: then the command would be like: ./v.pl f pd mpwp sd .mpwp-seals
mod6: or whatever you named the different seals dir.

mod6: this is what brought on the whole thing about phf doing his v stuffs or whatever.
mod6: hanbot: how are you currently pressing mpwp, what tools should douchebag use for this?
mod6: so douchebag: nope that's not working, if it fails like that, just blow away your press dir, whatever is there is no good.
mod6: in a pinch -- you could always try to just : `patch -F 0 -E -p1 < mp-wp_genesis.vpatch` in some directory and just inflate the thing.
mod6: but this is strictly un-republican, and un-verified.
mod6: 'heathen-istic method'
lobbes: mod6: re pizarro wot policy: so you're saying positive lordly ratings do not cancel out negative lordly ratings? i.e. rule is simply: "any lordly negrate disualifies?"
☟︎ mod6: Read that log post that I pasted above. That is the current rule.
diana_coman: lobbes, there is no positive cancels negative; for starters, it's not a sum
mod6: douchebag: scroll up, said somethings, or just check the log
diana_coman: mod6, my reading is that pizarro does business with mp here though, not with douchebag
lobbes: diana_coman: ah okay. gotcha
BingoBoingo: If I recall it was MP that rented the rockchip for douchebag.
☟︎ mod6: This is overall dubious then. If someone scams me, and I neg-rate them, but their mircea_popescu's person in question, then what?
☟︎ diana_coman: then you go and talk to mircea_popescu , yes
diana_coman: what does otherwise "it's mircea_popescu's person" mean?
mod6: Pizarro shall follow the rule and remove access to that scammer. Simple as that.
diana_coman: well yes, but first and foremost: what does it meant then "it's X's person"?
BingoBoingo: mod6: But in the case the negrated fellow isn't leasing the chip. MP is.
mod6: This is all why this discussion is needed. Because it's a pretty inflexible rule, as it stands.
mod6: diana_coman: i simply mean, mircea_popescu rented the thing for the guy. 'tis all.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: If you have been disenfranchised, the case is that yes, you have to have others do thing for you because you can't (MP in the case of leasing the rockchip douchebag uses)

mod6: So, what we're saying then is, if someone rents a box for someone else, and that someone else gets neg-rated, then it's up to the renter to figure it out? What if the renter says, "hey fuck what pizarro and its customers think". Does Pizarro not have a say in it's own customer usage then?
diana_coman: mod6, you do have a say; but you have your say with the one paying for the box!

esthlos: ok, and to that point, should EVERY operation spitting out vpatches (flow, antecedents, and so on) check all vpatches for sig?
mod6: for instance, my thing basically checks all people in the current wot, then verifies the seals based upon the current wot, then build a map, from which I build a flow. then all operations take place fro mthat.

http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/NQRtP/?raw=true mircea_popescu: being inept (and by inept we mean, exactly wrong), nobody could ever make it in.
mircea_popescu: in other words : providing someone being punished for weaselbehaviour with a specified mechanism to weasel further helps them by removing the ~defining~ of the weaselbehaviour from their hands, which is the first step towards becoming sane already.
hanbot: danielpbarron when you have a moment please post yer wp-comments-post.php for me.
mod6: hanbot: awesome, thanks!
mircea_popescu: and boy howdy, does anyone on earth, including its subinept management, derive more fucking value from the fetlife holding pens than yours truly.
mod6: douchebag: you'll have to follow what hanbot is posting here for that mpwp part.

a111: Logged on 2018-05-20 18:15 mod6: There is no contract here. I don't want to ask anyone about their ratings. Perhaps I shouldn't have asked what I asked there above.
mod6: yeah, exactly. glad I brought it up. our first test of this.
mod6: lol, "if it were not for your ``friends'' I would think that this was a normal chat site"
mircea_popescu: whether you can lean on people to chainge their ratings is iffier, and very much depends on your relationship. but the logs are full of this also.
mircea_popescu: mod6, "i got friends... they're multiplyin'... an' i'm loooosin'... control!"
BingoBoingo: Anyways there is a difference between a "-1 inquire within" and a "-10 social death sentence"
mod6: Sure, BingoBoingo. Just a solid test case against the rule formulated earlier. That's all this is.
mod6: Better to hash it out now, than to be surprised later.
mod6: lol mircea_popescu, I haven't heard that song in quite a while.

mod6: You've read the docs & use my vtron enough to know this!
mircea_popescu: no, i just expect v is verbose everywhere, and know it's in your case by that sure sign, that i've not bitched at you about it! :D
mod6: hahaha, fair enough.
mircea_popescu: fucking retarded grep uses it as "invert pattern", bloody hell.
mod6: on that note, am I the only one that didn't know that grep returns (technically) an error if something doens't match your pattern?
a111: Logged on 2018-05-20 18:20 trinque: mod6: since his remedy involves access to a place to post the report, I'll give it until the end of the day, which is ample time to get a blog up and a post (even incomplete, so what) up.
danielpbarron: i think the only change i made there is <code> to <pre> on the gpg thing
mod6: Ah yeah. If i grep for "foo" and it isn't found. It just hands you back your shell. Which I just always thought "oh, nothing found". But this is actually a non-zero return code.
mod6: Learned that about a week ago, and felt preeeety sheepish.

a111: Logged on 2018-05-20 18:29 douchebag: do you guys think douchebag.press is a good domain name?
mircea_popescu: i had nfi they made a .press tld ; i expect they made it for the "journalism", but of course that being dead and presses being a thing...
a111: Logged on 2018-05-20 18:30 mod6: and further, not even sure why you need a domain. (unless for some reason wp-mp doesn't work without one)
a111: Logged on 2018-05-20 18:34 trinque: this is a pretty shitty reputation all around.
mod6: Yeah, I've got domains, makes it easier. But yah, not specifically required.
mod6: To be fair on that point, I would have asked him for approx the same information.
mod6: douchebag: A few finer points on the matter. 1] p.bvulpes.com pastes are archived (thanks lobbes!), which help for future trips through old logs. 2] Not everyone who can help is always on a machine with a gui capable of viewing images.
mod6: Thanks all, I'll bbl, gotta do a few chores.

But to answer your question: lobbesbot's only involvement in my archive process is to listen to irc and insert urls it comes across into a sqlite3 db. That database is then 'shipped off' to separ
