It's a new thing added by browser vendors |

asciilifeform a lightweight structure, specific cli style commands and a requirement to start threads by embedding a picture. they're purely cosmetic, it's just a sort of forum ubuntu, if you take vbulletin to be windows. |
| 00:37 |

you usually don't know in advance when a key needs to expire or get invalidated |

and when you try to use this "expiry date" stuff, your mpex account expires,too |

one could picture a few 'cheats.' consider one: key, when promulgated, contains a large but finite set of values Q such that hash(hash(...(P)...) = Q, while P are retained as private. every signature must contain a unique Q from this set. when it is time to retire the key, you spend the remaining 'bullets' all at once. |
| 16:44 |
mircea_popescu |
ascii_field makes keys too big, doesn't actually offer anything other than the equivalent "at key promulgation, use it to sing a list of nonces, with understanding that statements w/io the nonce are void", let wot enforce this. |
| 16:45 |

mircea_popescu |
there are some things that don't need fixing. what needs fixing re gpg is to use rsa throughout, rather than the current lulzatron. |
| 16:45 |
ascii_field |
but there -must- be a way to proclaim, with all the certainty that can be mustered, the fact that 'i signed with this before but -never intend to again-' |

suppose within the year cardano proves such a success s.nsa trades ~0.00020000 like s.bbet. at that point, your 70% share of the stock will be worth 663.1905 ; your warrants like another 663.1904. if btc is 1.2k at that point again, you're now worth a million and a half in benjies |
