Logged on 2022-09-15 23:50:03 phf[awt]: awt and company, can someone make an executive summary of the recent blatta woes? is it related to the address algorithm? in any case i'm going to come back to the subject in the next few days. did the recent discussions potentially change the details of implementation, asciilifeform?

(asciilifeform) 2022-09-15 copypaste: if no one wants to peer w/me that's fine lol enjoy your secret club i guess, the lack of a default way to peer probably prevents a lot of spam but also makes ur network dead

13:52

btw who'd you see?

13:55

here's an idea: get a friend to create a pest station, and then make your own network?

13:56

also, it might work better to directly ask people instead of putting out a general "anybody want to peer with me"?

13:57

both of my two elementary schoolers brought home notes saying that someone in their class has covid this week, we had it fairly recently, so hopefully our antibodies are still active

asciilifeform pictures various lulz resulting from idjits exchanging keys over unsecured channels; but imho unlikely to get to this point, it aint as if pestron is loadable via crapple appstore etc

asciilifeform recalls mp's projects to reel in 'moar wives'

( from result, the q of 'what were the standards' remains mystery )

17:04

if they want to just be entertained by the smart guys, the log is freely available for reading

17:05

PeterL: indeed

17:05

and w/out exception, historically the folx who ended up doing sumthing, lurked for a spell 1st

17:09

re. exchanging keys over unsecure channels - most people don't have secrets worth stealing, so why would they worry about using an unsecure channel to send keys?

17:10

PeterL: well they won't worry, lol, until their wot hijacked by 1st joker who comes along

17:11

( who has $key, will get peers to re-AT to his box immed., and then can issue rekey etc )

oshpit was not bad though

20:25

but also like back in my day™ bands like that would be in warehouses, so the mosh would be on the concrete floor. here it was hardwood floor, so after a few spills it turned into a slip and slide. it's the small things…

http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2022-09-16#1012974 << you're dellusional, that never happens, and all people like that do is bring down the s/n. this whole online yeshiva thing is bogus, because, and i appologize for a taleb-ism, there's no skin in the game. it's exactly "what's on TV"

of course after the guy opens up with a bunch of ironic and idgy insults jonsykkel gives him peering info and asciilifeform helpfully explains how to setup the client

20:34

so looking forward to pestnet being swamped with more of same. it's like you guys *enjoy* being insulted?

if that aint a suitable filter, then asciilifeform has nfi wat is ( e.g. gotta have original theorem? e.g. asciilifeform hasn't any. )

23:45

near as asciilifeform can tell, d00d is no better or worse than other folx fucked by modernity and screwing w/ electronics for no particular logical reason.
