00:06 ben_vulpes can confirm the sig is not what i broadcast.
00:07 ben_vulpes script is, however

00:29 assbot dpaste: 1N3TVK6 ... ( http://bit.ly/1DG6wh6 )
00:30 asciilifeform (left: the one in the gpggram. right: the one on turdatron.)
00:32 asciilifeform seems like it inserts 0x0d before any 0x0a
00:32 asciilifeform because msdos line endings, aha.
00:32 asciilifeform BURN THE WORLD
00:35 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: here is proof. 'dos2unix -f ak47_05243673e45fc4c4ce30467f8ffc003deec1d184.sh.sig' then 'diff foo.sig ak47.sh.sig'
00:35 asciilifeform now - identical.
00:35 asciilifeform QED.
00:36 mod6 Have a bunch of automated tests (cucumber) that now builds the new test bundle, verify, check binary, test -connect, dumpblock, eatblock. ima post a log here in just a bit.
00:36 asciilifeform ('diff ak47_05243673e45fc4c4ce30467f8ffc003deec1d184.sh.sig ak47.sh.sig' rather than foo)
00:36 asciilifeform mod6: neato!
00:36 asciilifeform hanbot: if you do the above on your box, sig will verify.
00:38 ben_vulpes msdos line endings in gpg or in the mailing list mutilator?
00:39 asciilifeform the latter
00:40 ben_vulpes jurov: is the thing really running on windows?
00:41 ben_vulpes ;;later tell jurov ^^
00:41 gribble The operation succeeded.
00:45 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: iirc this is standard sendmail behaviour
00:51 ben_vulpes yick.
00:52 mod6 i was pretty happy with postfix when i ran an mta like a hundred million internet years ago
00:53 asciilifeform at any rate, this is kinda why we do the whole 7-bit ascii thing
00:54 * ben_vulpes had not yet pissed on this fence
00:54 asciilifeform iirc it was collectively pissed on months ago
00:55 mod6 This test output log is a bit large, after all of the normal build output the goodies are at the end of the file (including the output from all of the subsequent tests & code): http://thebitcoin.foundation/misc/v054-TEST1-cukes-log.txt
00:55 assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/1LLl5GL )
00:59 hanbot well, glad this was demystified, but
00:59 * hanbot glares at prospect of having to install new package --just to verify gpg sig--
00:59 asciilifeform mod6: epic backbreaker. but spiffy
01:00 mod6 thanks :]
01:00 mod6 whole thing takes < 30 minutes to dl, build, & test.
01:00 asciilifeform hanbot: just this one!
01:00 asciilifeform hanbot: ben_vulpes sent a gpg-native binary sig instead of a standard ascii-armoured one by mistake.
01:00 asciilifeform so it got mutilated.
01:00 ben_vulpes ignorance, really.
01:01 mod6 at some point next month, i write up a guide on how to set up cucumber as well so any one else who wants to use this can do so on their own environment.

01:14 asciilifeform decimation: sometimes even goes the other way! i was recently surprised to learn that 'lispworks' no longer charges per-runtime royalties
01:14 asciilifeform (something for which that vendor was infamous. see naggum archive for some good flamewarz re: subject)
01:14 decimation heh interesting
01:15 decimation apparently it's been mooted to include this new HEVC standard into HTML5 - amazingly all of a sudden "flash" has been flooded with publicized exploits
01:15 assbot AMAZING COMPANY!
01:16 decimation it would be just like hollywood et al to conspire to 'move content' into a box they can milk
01:16 asciilifeform eh, 'flash' was a steaming pile of shit from day 1
01:17 decimation yeah but I've noticed an uptick in stories about it recently
01:17 decimation as if this were some kind of secret
01:18 asciilifeform decimation: actually i was mistaken. it was franz/allegro who charged royalties
01:18 asciilifeform and not lispworks.

01:19 decimation I think they have a non-profit free version now?
01:19 * asciilifeform does not use either of these products today
01:19 asciilifeform decimation: they both had crippled versions for download
01:20 decimation would you recommend franz over the cl with the menorah?
01:20 asciilifeform clisp ?
01:20 decimation yeah
01:20 asciilifeform clisp is a mostly-standardcompliant implementation of the language - but very slow
01:20 asciilifeform but is slow because of the very cross-platformy way in which it was written
01:21 asciilifeform so on some exotic machines, it may be your only option.
01:22 asciilifeform folks who bring in very tangible money from cl-related work, and want/need a serious support relationship, might benefit from franz or lispworks
01:22 asciilifeform if you fall into this category, buy one of each, try.

01:26 decimation "Microsoft, the ruling king of mass marketed trinketware, are just surfing on the same tsunami that lifted Taiwan and Hong Kong from poverty into an inflated economy that just _had_ to crash down and wash out _enormous_ values some day.
01:26 decimation heh
01:27 asciilifeform 'Personally, I think the whole business model of the software industry is rotten to the core. Microsoft is not even a contributory cause -- Bill Gates isn't smart enough to invent or create something like this. It used to be the norm that software was essentially free (gratis) and just vehicles to move hardware, which was tangible enough to make it easy for the anal-retentive beancounters to count and weigh and such, especial
01:27 asciilifeform ly those in the government offices in charge of squeezing the juice of out the produce of society. I think the software crisis has been created by the tax laws and government officials who were unable to understand the value of the computer industry products. Since the Western business world is operating very closely in a trigger-response pattern relative to changes to the tax laws, the regulators are fully to blame for the
01:27 asciilifeform inability of societies to value software properly, and hence the "protection" the software industry got in the Y2K scare, the ability to skirt warranty and every other consumer protection law, the non-constitutionality of the War on Software Piracy (which is much worse than the absolutely insane War on Drugs measured in results and costs and accepted loss of personal freedom), and numerous additional deep-rooted and pandemic c
01:27 asciilifeform onsequences of bad (working to destroy) and sometimes evil (intended to destroy) policy and ignorant idiots with too much power.

01:27 asciilifeform ^ ftr.
01:28 decimation heh yeah I was amused by the same paragraph, where naggum predicts the fall of micrsoft, that's more-or-less playing out now
01:28 asciilifeform one of the hyenas fighting over the corpse (google et al), plus the still-living organs of the corpse, will become the new microshit.
01:29 asciilifeform just as was the case after the fall of ibm.
01:29 decimation of course, it's more than just a 'marketing gimmick', microsoft more-or-less requires all hardware to be painted with its binaries
01:31 asciilifeform the coveted 'garden of eden' situation where ~there isn't a microshit~, when there is not a usg department-of-computing that has its tentacles in every orifice - won't be coming back until some quasi-mythical breakthrough decentralizes chip fabbing
01:31 asciilifeform as it is, the industry is ~intrinsically~ usgtronic
01:31 asciilifeform through sheer force of centralization.
01:32 decimation yeah, if not this usg than another one
01:32 decimation it's kinda like expecting the king to return to minting gold after pocketing it and giving you copper coins
01:33 asciilifeform worse
01:33 asciilifeform when king takes the gold, it is still there, somewhere
01:33 asciilifeform could - theoretically - be seen again, one day
01:33 decimation heh, true
01:33 decimation if not in the king's hands than at least the hooker-n-blow dealers
01:35 decimation but you make a point - the software industry (and usg in general) has mastered the art of wasting the productivity of its population
01:35 asciilifeform the world of 1985, where there were a thousand ~state-of-the-art~ chip fabs, under two+ separate civilizational systems, and running perhaps a dozen ~entirely independently developed~ toolchains - isn't coming back

01:37 asciilifeform folks like to talk about 'printed' this and that, but the actual hard data on the ground are considerably more optimistic for classical problems like 'lead to gold', 'elixir of immortality', and 'energy too cheap to meter' than for desktop chip-fab.
01:37 ben_vulpes re previous thread: "profits of 1% on revenues of 1 billion! we're rich!"
01:37 decimation yarvin wrote about this pattern in the policy side of usg as the smartest bureaucrats exactly cancelling each other's efforts
01:38 ben_vulpes rentiers are extracting all of the "productivity" gains.
01:39 asciilifeform very easy to steal imaginary things
01:39 asciilifeform (they don't weigh much, can be carried right through walls!)
01:39 decimation it's even easier to steal 'having imaginary things been stolen from'

06:49 mircea_popescu the reason being, obviously, the eternal problem of unforeseen utility.
06:50 mircea_popescu i personally knew my father was a retard when i was about thirteen, and he threw a fit insisting i "stop using tools for other purposes than they were made".
06:50 mircea_popescu better exam of idiocy could scarcely be had. and so here we are. no "conditional royalties", no "apple store", no "charge for runtime" and none of that jazz. not because it's wrong, or evil. because it's stupid, and because it enacts an unsustainable model.
06:51 mircea_popescu i don't wanna die in the stupidboat.
06:52 mircea_popescu (and yes this is why tort laws are building socialism. "we sell you the coffee - if you kill yourself with it that's your problem" is the correct position, and what the courts should, and what the b,tmsr~ courts do enforce)

14:01 trinque looking at where it ended up, I don't really have that much respect for Jobs
14:01 trinque worlds most profitable toy company
14:01 trinque his notable qualities were what, having an eye for art and being "mean"?
14:02 mircea_popescu don't knock "being mean". it alone is enough to succeed in twerpland.
14:02 trinque sort of what I meant by it
14:02 trinque low bar
14:03 trinque imagine if he'd been mean and understood a computer at the same time
14:03 mircea_popescu imagine if your pet chicken spoke klingon
14:03 trinque lol
14:03 trinque can't have both?

14:06 pete_dushenski bbiab
14:07 jurov maybe he secretly let deep froze himself
14:11 trinque I think he saw a computer as an appliance
14:11 trinque wanted to make sure the buttons on the thing were designed just so
14:12 trinque the utter lack of programmability (automator? lol, fuck off) shows they did not even consider how a thinking person would use the thing
14:12 trinque as an appliance, the thing should obviously have one button labeled "cook", and no thought required from there

14:28 trinque jurov: an example, I have keybindings for various stages of various workflows
14:28 trinque wrote a shitty tool called summon which can launch things, arrange them, switch between layouts, so on

14:39 asciilifeform folks who know better ~in their bones~, piss on winblowz. and on 'ubuntu.' etc
14:40 mircea_popescu speaking of ubuntu,
14:40 mircea_popescu am i correct in reading between the lines of hanbot's efforts that in point of fact someone carefully packaged a debian/ubuntu "equivalent" of the gcc package that allows static linking which in point of fact and quite pointedly DOES NOT allow static linking ?
14:42 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: recall, static linking was Officially Deprecated
14:42 mircea_popescu that is one thing
14:43 asciilifeform (to the tune of rms senile snoring)
14:43 mircea_popescu but making packages that purport to be equivalent and then miss parts seems a bit cosmic ray-y
14:43 mircea_popescu not like they accidentally forgot to include nigger-super-systems
14:43 asciilifeform in turdmeisterdom, for some years, 'missing deprecated pieces' ~= 'same'
14:43 mircea_popescu or w/e nss stands for
14:51 wywialm hi, I'm sure it has already been somehow settled - what is recommended instead of debian?
14:51 mircea_popescu hardly settled
14:56 wywialm I know you once recommended debian sarge. Would you recommend wheezy now?
14:58 mircea_popescu i just said i used to use it. and nah. i'd still recomend sarge o.O
14:58 mircea_popescu but really, the official ba os is still an open ended question
14:59 asciilifeform not sure if b-a unix can be even in principle other than 'buildroot'.
15:00 asciilifeform (or perhaps a bsd variant thereof)
15:00 trinque openbsd dead yet? I just grew to like it, so I'm sure it must be
15:00 wywialm I one got fascinated by asciilifeform's project inspired by OpenGenera - is it still active?
15:00 asciilifeform i don't have a project inspired by opengenera
15:00 wywialm once*
15:00 asciilifeform nope, never
15:02 wywialm perhaps I misunderstood you, but I read that you plan to design a sane os and (in other blog posts) pointed to opengenera as an example of such system
15:02 asciilifeform it was an example of a variety of ~sane behaviours in an os~
15:02 asciilifeform very different thing.
15:02 wywialm ah, ok
15:03 asciilifeform sorta like how a courageous man on a movie screen is not the same as actual hero
15:04 wywialm is LoperOS project active then?
15:04 asciilifeform wywialm: active in the sense that i'm not dead yet

18:10 asciilifeform gabriel_laddel has the authority to hire subcontractors just like this ?
18:10 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: wot
18:10 ben_vulpes who are they to trust but him?
18:11 gabriel_laddel I'm mentioning this because people say it's so goddamn hard to get CL work, which I have not found to be the case.
18:11 ben_vulpes gabriel_laddel: i'd probably bite it off myself, simply because there isn't much by way of CL horsepower around the shop.
18:12 ben_vulpes that said, give me six hours and i can figure out whatever's in flight and load it into someone else's head.
18:12 ben_vulpes good way to minimize single points of failure.
18:12 * asciilifeform is aware of folks who hire for 'we don't care what you write it in', but shudders at the thought of 'cl work' - it could only result from an astonishingly gnarly pre-existing codebase
18:12 gabriel_laddel ummm
18:13 ben_vulpes it's the 'work' part you really object to, let's be honest here.
18:13 asciilifeform no shit
18:13 ben_vulpes cranks need turning, no avoiding that.
18:14 ben_vulpes gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform: did you see the libuv folks are colonizing cl?
18:14 asciilifeform nope
18:14 gabriel_laddel ben_vulpes: yeah
18:14 ben_vulpes "cl-async"
18:14 gabriel_laddel asciilifeform: No one ever gets called to extend a program's feature-set? Nonsense.
18:14 asciilifeform derps can 'colonize cl' in precisely the same way redditards colonize bitcoin.
18:14 gabriel_laddel ben_vulpes: I don't know anything aobut libuv and as such didn't comment.
18:15 ben_vulpes simply smells of node to me.
18:15 asciilifeform which is to say, from their point of view, they will always succeed.
18:16 asciilifeform <ben_vulpes> cranks need turning, no avoiding that. << wtf is the point of a computer if not to avoid this ?
18:16 ben_vulpes the "async" cl webserver the nodebros are banging on about blocks the repl when instantiated in a cl-async 'event loop', unlike how hunchentoot starts a server and then returns on threaded sbcl.
18:17 asciilifeform l0l !
18:17 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: well the cranks that turn the cranks need to be written, and then the machine that turns the meta-cranks built.
18:17 asciilifeform blocks repl, as in, runs single-threaded ?!
18:17 ben_vulpes (as:with-event-loop (as:await (sleep 3))) will indeed block.
18:17 asciilifeform what are they using for a runtime?! xlisp under msdos ?!!
18:18 ben_vulpes i suspect that they're not using emacs, but rather doing the "compile, run" thing.
18:18 asciilifeform even then
18:18 * ben_vulpes shrugs
18:18 asciilifeform wtf is the point?
18:18 ben_vulpes looks like braindamage, smells like braindamage, can't say as i care to dig further into it when there are food credits to scrape up elsewhere and the scraping to automate.
18:19 * asciilifeform wonders why these folks took cl from the shelf, rather than something more 'komyoonitiful'
18:19 ben_vulpes heh like the "modern cl" thinger?
18:19 asciilifeform any number of
18:20 asciilifeform at any rate, there is a lesson: the difference between ending up like this in cl and in, e.g., python, is sorta like the difference between being covered in own shit in civilian life, vs. inside an oubliette
18:20 asciilifeform in the latter cases, respectively, it is an expected thing.

21:51 mircea_popescu 4. Just show me how it works, OK?
21:51 mircea_popescu Not all capabilities of p0f can be showcased here, and as noted, this release candidate still has a relatively small database of fingerprints. That said, here's the most recent positive match p0f has for your IP:
21:51 mircea_popescu *** Looks like p0f is down for maintenance, sorry. Check back later. ***
21:51 mircea_popescu meh ok.

21:53 punkman asciilifeform: TLS stuff is in that HeavyThing library
21:53 asciilifeform punkman: it was the only published src iirc
21:53 punkman mircea_popescu: looks credible, haven't tried it yet though
21:56 mircea_popescu i dunno, to me it looks perfectly not credible, but then again i'm a toxic asshole.
21:57 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: curious, what part of it sets off your sc4mz0r-detector
21:57 mircea_popescu be that as it may, "this is a magical brothel where the girls extend ectoplasm cunts and satisfactorily reach your very soul. wanna see it in action ? sure, here : ***not working atm***".
21:57 asciilifeform from here it looks like just another 'we did X but in asm!' projects
21:57 asciilifeform used to be a fairly common thing
21:58 mircea_popescu asciilifeform the part where they make wildly improbable claims (ex : purely passive traffic fingerprinting mechanisms to identify the players behind any incidental TCP/IP communications (often as little as a single normal SYN) without interfering in any way.) but then mishmashingly backtrack on it (this release candidate still has a relatively small database of fingerprints) and so on
21:58 asciilifeform wai wai
21:58 mircea_popescu reads exactly like a sophomore paper to me
21:58 asciilifeform wrong link
21:58 asciilifeform i was describing the web server in asm item
21:58 punkman mircea_popescu: oh I meant rwasa looks credible
21:58 mircea_popescu i was describing the "especially in settings where NMap probes are blocked, too slow, unreliable" bs.
21:59 mircea_popescu really, they beat nmap, check em out.
21:59 asciilifeform as for that one, you could, conceivably, look at sequence numbers and learn when a severely broken tcp/ip stack is in use
21:59 asciilifeform but this is '90 state of the art
21:59 mircea_popescu but if you did that for any period of time you'd know better than to make the sort of promises htey make.
22:00 asciilifeform aha
22:00 mircea_popescu ie, you could just as well NOT be able to identify anything
22:00 asciilifeform classic academitardation.
22:00 mircea_popescu the other thing i have nfi idea.
22:00 mircea_popescu i'm not advanced enough to have an opinion.
22:02 punkman "For TCP/IP, the tool fingerprints the client-originating SYN packet and the first SYN+ACK response from the server, paying attention to factors such as the ordering of TCP options, the relation between maximum segment size and window size, the progression of TCP timestamps, and the state of about a dozen possible implementation quirks (e.g. non-zero values in "must be zero" fields)."
22:02 punkman that looks interesting to me
22:03 mircea_popescu it may well be interesting.

22:21 mircea_popescu put the state in danger of not sucking the eucock eugerly enough ?
22:21 mircea_popescu clearly treason :D
22:21 mircea_popescu so funny this shit. these derps are still sitting on that referendum vote right ?

22:35 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: l0l! are those 'action' logs auto-generated ?
22:36 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: and, does this go both ways? i.e. can one play 'eulora' as a text mud ?!
22:36 mircea_popescu one should be able to, yes.
22:36 mircea_popescu !s eulora emacs
22:36 assbot 1 results for 'eulora emacs' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=eulora+emacs
22:36 mircea_popescu and no, they're me impromptu.
22:38 * Adlai might be interested in making an emacs client
22:39 * Adlai generally avoids gooey games
22:39 mircea_popescu what's gooey ?
22:39 Adlai a pun :)
22:39 mircea_popescu anyway, diana_coman has been doing some work on making a client api, might be useful stepping stone.
22:39 mircea_popescu prolly be released this week,
22:40 * Adlai still busy elsewhere atm
22:41 mircea_popescu afaik this would be the first ever case of a 3d mmorpg with a text client
22:42 mircea_popescu considering vlc has had an ascii art rendering plugin for many years now, there's really no limit to how epic that client could end up
22:44 mircea_popescu and jurov's working on an irc integration thingee, which i intend to upgrade to gossipd once that's done, and generally...
22:44 mircea_popescu myeah.
22:44 mircea_popescu euloraos.

23:23 asciilifeform 'GPG for data at rest. TLS for data in motion. You can also use Guttman’s cryptlib, which has a sane API. Or Google Keyczar. They both have really simple interfaces, and they try to make it hard to do the wrong thing.' << l0l!!
23:23 phf "wisdom"
23:23 mircea_popescu mats chat client not really what this is tho. and besides, "unsanctioned"
23:23 asciilifeform whizzdum
23:24 mircea_popescu wtf is "Data at rest"
23:24 mircea_popescu "clean rectum" ?
23:24 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: nsa phrase
23:24 mats tapes?

23:25 mircea_popescu can has off sane webhost kthx
23:25 mircea_popescu wtf do ARTICLES need https for anyway
23:25 asciilifeform ask cryptome
23:25 asciilifeform i still fail to grasp.
23:25 mircea_popescu asciilifeform doesn't that technically put them in motion ?
23:26 mircea_popescu or is this the side of the bureaucracy that's not a stickler for detail.
23:26 asciilifeform take it up with herr goebbels or whoever is in charge of this claptrap
23:29 asciilifeform in other nyooz, lightest blocks in ages
23:29 mircea_popescu heh.
23:29 mircea_popescu fucking children i swear. while there's hope to get the car, they absolutely need the car for continued existence and that school project.

23:30 assbot This little kit has everything I need to run a full node. Ordered it on purse.io yesterday, got it today. Total $89.34 (saved 22%!) : Bitcoin ... ( http://bit.ly/1S5Qwkh )
23:30 mircea_popescu once the noncargetting is settle, the existence continues somehow, no longer dependant on the cargetting.
23:30 mircea_popescu lmao mmmkay.
23:30 mircea_popescu so the pogos are what, 95% saved, never will be on reddit ?
23:30 asciilifeform 'Which way is your vote going?' 'I'm in favor of bigger blocks. I guess that 128GB drive won't last me very long :)' << quoted for
23:31 asciilifeform why would they be on reddit? after all, they aren't sold on pigfuck.io, and aren't particularly interested to mega-blox folk
23:31 mircea_popescu and there's no saving of the "pay more for shit" sort.
23:32 mircea_popescu "here's my rusted usb cable i'm so happy to have saved on"
23:32 asciilifeform i saw that,
23:32 asciilifeform and couldn't help but think of the soviet staples
23:33 asciilifeform (supposedly, more than one nato agent outed by otherwise perfect forgeries of documents where stapes failed to rust)
23:34 mircea_popescu aha
23:34 mircea_popescu because they made them out of antimony like sane people, not out of low steel like crazy people.
23:37 asciilifeform stainless (Fe, Cr)
23:44 mats I vaguely remember someone mentioning experimenting with pogo and hybrid hard drive
23:44 mats was that you, jurov, and if so how did that go
