10:16 asciilifeform btw if anyone is looking for something to do, getting hold of a copy of diddled freebsd and generating several hundred thousand ssh and pgp keys, would be spiffy

10:19 BingoBoingo In still other news St Louis now has Syrian refugees leaving St Louis as refugees. Double Refugee

10:19 mircea_popescu once a refugee...
10:20 BingoBoingo The ones settled in South St Louis very happy with South St Louis, but the ones settled in NORTH St Louis...
10:20 BingoBoingo Well settled isn't right word
10:21 Framedragger asciilifeform: looks like some folks may have generated ssl certs this way, too...
10:21 Framedragger would be nice to run a netcraft-like service which observes all searchable internet's certificates..
10:21 Framedragger /me dreams
10:24 mircea_popescu not even that expensive.
10:25 BingoBoingo ALso Nikki Haley condemned to UN Ambassador position, sound like career ender for the Governor.
10:25 BingoBoingo brb
10:29 trinque Framedragger: it'd be a step towards a republican search engine too
10:30 mircea_popescu eep.
10:31 trinque something like pagerank with the logs being heavily favored over all other content would be quite useful
10:32 trinque decent way to pick gems from the mountain of shit
10:35 Framedragger i suppose the system could then also integrate with gns, in the sense that gns-listed content could in principle be searched, too..
10:36 mircea_popescu aha
10:36 mircea_popescu google is ~worthless as it is, certainly there's a hole here.
10:39 trinque given a concept of the top, you can do things like "archive all content within L2 of logs"
10:39 trinque unfairness makes the world so manageable
10:46 Framedragger trinque: L2 here means two edges away from logs?
10:49 trinque correct
10:51 mircea_popescu in principle it would be very gns-based. if i sign btcbase/logs mkj.lt/log trilema.com etc, you can do "signed:mp" in your search box and get results from THESE
10:51 mircea_popescu and obviously signed:mp&signed:alf ; or signed:mp||signed:alf etc
10:52 mircea_popescu just make a special field "readworthy" in your dns.
10:53 Framedragger mircea_popescu: like, the name is signed, or specific piece of content is signed? i assume the former?
10:53 mircea_popescu nah works just like !!rate. currently someone pops in, people !!up him, if he's not obnoxious gets a courtesy rating or two.
10:53 mircea_popescu same thing : people pop a link in, if the site's any good it gets a !!readworthy
10:53 mircea_popescu or two
10:54 Framedragger ah right.
10:55 mircea_popescu give trinque 's idea a bit of a kick, basically. just because something was mentioned here doesn't automatically mean it's worth reading ; though it IS a sign it exists.
10:55 Framedragger the N-to-1 relation (many possible ratings for one name) needs to be stored somehow, i suppose it may be multiple gns fields, but then it is the case that not *all* fields of a specific name are controlled by the name's owner; or, there's a separate service / storage thing.
10:55 mircea_popescu so that way you can more finely weigh the sites.
10:56 trinque http://btcbase.org/log/2015-09-14#1273498 << and it would satisfy this perfectly.
10:56 a111 Logged on 2015-09-14 02:02 trinque: I'd rather have the index of the right man's bookshelf than access to every landfill on earth for free
10:56 mircea_popescu quite so
10:56 mircea_popescu Framedragger on contemplation it'd be a "goodreads" root rather than the domain in question.
10:56 mircea_popescu gns is not dns ; it will hold any symbols you realise.
10:57 Framedragger sure
10:57 Framedragger so it'd just be another name
10:57 mircea_popescu so then deedbot could own goodreads and delegate mircea_popescu.goodreads to me.
10:58 Framedragger (btw, current dns does not allow for arbitrary fields the way you think it does; it does have a TXT type of record, but that's not the same; types of records are baked-in in the sense that they have magical IDs to be specified at dns payload header. obvs this cannot stand!)
10:58 mircea_popescu i don't think it does. i just say it should.
10:59 Framedragger yeah, i mean, sounds good.
10:59 mircea_popescu whole piece of shit is a repugnant midden of magic crap
10:59 mircea_popescu that's the thing with magic values : they are secreted by and attract like pheromones the imperial mind.
11:00 Framedragger mircea_popescu: i'm still not sure about the delegation thing. if A owns goodreads, B should in principle be able to register fuck.goodreads , right? but then allowing for a possibility of delegation would be nice. or, it'd just be a matter of convention *within deedbot's context*.
11:00 mircea_popescu you know what'd happen if women had no legs ? all sidewalks would be covered in slime lines. but do you know what happened once plebs were taught to read ? all fucking code is covered in slime lines.
11:00 asciilifeform ^
11:00 Framedragger heh.
11:01 mircea_popescu Framedragger right, same difference.
11:01 Framedragger right, convention.
11:02 mircea_popescu technically i suppose the correct way for this to work would be for me to own 6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452 which i do own because hey.
11:03 mircea_popescu then have name record on that = mircea popescu and freenode-nick record = mircea_popescu and blog = trilema.com and goodreads = whatever
11:03 mircea_popescu and so on.
11:03 asciilifeform naggum had some imho interesting detail re 'magic numbers', and how they are not born from empty space, but are gangrenously oozed eternally by pathologically misdesigned systems where operator is FORCED to lie about foreknowledge of field sizes, types, etc.
11:03 mircea_popescu now, the one hold-up here is that we've not yet settled on an universal-fingerprinting-function and we don't like how the koch-rsa fingerprinting works
11:03 mircea_popescu plus we want something to work wth cs too
11:04 mircea_popescu asciilifeform and he was right.
11:04 mircea_popescu note how neatly this clasps into the "causes, not purposes" thing, also.
11:04 mircea_popescu it's like being indiana jones, all the meaningless fragments snap together eventually.
11:05 Framedragger mircea_popescu: i suppose the system could just allow one to own multiple fingerprints, according to different schemes, with some constraints on length ('minimum length' at least)?
11:05 mircea_popescu yes, i see no problem with that.
11:06 mircea_popescu make it take fingerprints as they are for now, and can be extended later.
11:06 Framedragger i guess i could invent a hash function which always outputs some short meaningful names like "CocksCocksBallsCocks" and then claim i have a right to them because that's my fingerprint, but it all boils down to WoT and "don't be ridiculous".
11:07 asciilifeform 'as they are now' is catastrophically braindamaged
11:07 mircea_popescu asciilifeform yeah well.
11:07 mircea_popescu Framedragger i don't follow ?
11:07 mircea_popescu think - currently deedbot administers a very narrow implementation of the gns, whereby if you claim to own X domain, it challenges you and if you pass it gives it to you.
11:07 mircea_popescu same principle.
11:08 Framedragger mircea_popescu: i'm saying that there's a possible runaway effect where a party could claim to own many a fingerprint, because "their key fingerprinting function is like that", to the point where semantically useful names could be owned by them. but that's just ridiculous..
11:08 Framedragger aha sure
11:08 Framedragger so deedbot or gns would decide on the allowed fingerprinting schemes.
11:08 mircea_popescu pretty much.
11:08 mircea_popescu !!register CocksCocksBallsCocks
11:08 deedbot mircea_popescu is already registered.
11:09 mircea_popescu :p
11:09 trinque ahahaha
11:09 Framedragger sounds pretty neat!
11:09 trinque oh wait
11:09 mircea_popescu lol
11:09 Framedragger "something terrible has happened"
11:09 mircea_popescu this ranks way up there in the top 10 machine humour incidents
11:09 Framedragger *mircea_popescu now permanently known as CocksCocksBallsCocks*
11:09 mircea_popescu !~echo the shrieker shrieks
11:09 jhvh1 the shrieker shrieks
11:09 asciilifeform btw 'fingerprint' is a enough of a catastrophic retardation that it deserves own thread
11:10 mircea_popescu yeah it'll have to be fixed.
11:10 Framedragger asciilifeform: hence why you invented your own fp scheme for phuctor, right..
11:10 mircea_popescu i dun think anyone seriously proposes it can work.
11:10 asciilifeform Framedragger: phuctor's scheme is sufficient for distinguishing pgp keys with same moduli but variant metafields from one another, and for no other purpose.
11:10 Framedragger right.
11:11 mircea_popescu this problem is harder than you realise, because eg, you don't know what publishing hash(privkey) leaks.
11:11 asciilifeform it is quite inappropriate for battlefield pubkeys.
11:11 asciilifeform why the fuck would you ever hash a privkey
11:11 mircea_popescu because thatg's the only way you're guaranteed to not have the current gpg problem
11:11 mircea_popescu where "something changes" but same hash
11:12 asciilifeform if you must hash something, you hash pubkey
11:12 mircea_popescu gah.
11:12 asciilifeform (rsa pubkeys are one-to-one with privkeys)
11:12 mircea_popescu with a few irrelevant exceptions.
11:12 asciilifeform degenerates
11:13 mircea_popescu i'm not making the argument you should. i'm just pointing out that it is the only way to be 100%.
11:13 asciilifeform but here's my cut of the knot: HASH LOCALLY
11:13 mircea_popescu now, trade-offs that are reasonable can be made etc.
11:13 mircea_popescu well of course locally ? or what do you mean ?
11:13 Framedragger did someone say DEGENERATES? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80X0pbCV_t4
11:13 asciilifeform pubkey hashes are 'for in the harem' and not 'for in the forum'.
11:13 mircea_popescu no i wasn't about to send pubkeys to freeonlinehashes.foryou
11:14 asciilifeform i will carefully work out example:
11:14 asciilifeform tmsrttp://6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452/trilema/foo.html is imho wrong.
11:14 asciilifeform 'key fingerprint' is a broken concept.
11:14 mircea_popescu gns:// plox
11:14 asciilifeform it cannot be fixed.
11:15 mircea_popescu and it'd be gns://trilema.com/
11:15 mircea_popescu asciilifeform no argument re it being broken. point is - it exists, and can't be trivially fucked for now, so until replacement is made, can be used.
11:16 mircea_popescu in point of fact - it IS used.
11:16 mircea_popescu all our uses, in deedbot, in voicing model, in wot, in v, all rely on the concept of fp as gns namespace.
11:16 asciilifeform i say to replace it meaningfully, you gotta let go of the fundamental braindamage at the root of it.
11:16 asciilifeform nope. of PUBKEY
11:16 asciilifeform not a proctustization of same.
11:16 asciilifeform *procrust
11:16 asciilifeform do business with PUBKEYS, not FPs.
11:16 mircea_popescu !!rate asciilifeform 1 i tell you it's by fp
11:16 deedbot Get your OTP: http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/r/mvv35/?raw=true
11:17 asciilifeform remains -- lame.
11:17 mircea_popescu asciilifeform you realise, deedbot searched me in its own copy of the gns. by fp.
11:17 asciilifeform and earlier by fleanode nick. because it imported the broken concepts of the empire.
11:17 mircea_popescu found the "pubkey" entry, encrypted to it.
11:17 asciilifeform one of them being - the fp.
11:17 asciilifeform it is promisetronic.
11:18 mircea_popescu yes well, to clean a room you gotta at some point stand on dirty floor.
11:18 asciilifeform global indices of 'memorable' names, or 'safely' shortened rsa pubkeys, are promisetronic.
11:18 mircea_popescu trinque would you be capable to migrate to indexing by pubkey numeric value ?
11:18 asciilifeform the only ~protocolic~ answer is to do business with pubkeys. now you ~can~ shorten them 'in the harem'
11:19 mircea_popescu he does have a point, and i think also the code to allow you to extract it from a pubkey if need be
11:19 asciilifeform mircea_popescu can still key in 'trilema' in his browser. but his nic will spit out entire pubkey.
11:19 trinque mircea_popescu: if this is something I can jam into gpg at each call
11:19 mircea_popescu trinque it'd just be the index, you can keep precomputed field with anything you'd like right next to it.
11:19 trinque or otherwise it calls for homebrew RSA+padding
11:19 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: 'pgpdump' will extract handily.
11:19 asciilifeform from ordinary rfc2440/4880 key.
11:19 asciilifeform ditto phuctor.
11:20 trinque and sure, could easily do this. I was already going to move the pubkey into my db for the www-wot pages
11:20 Framedragger jesus you guys, you realise all those deedbot messages are still internally encrypted with symmetric aes ('session key') right? and you think the lowest-hanging fruit is fingerprint? ok i guess
11:20 mircea_popescu it makes the db slightly larger, but it does solve a fundamental problem.
11:20 asciilifeform btw when 'p' is out i will show folks who want to keep their old moduli, how
11:20 asciilifeform (it isn't hard)
11:20 mircea_popescu Framedragger that's definitely getting replaced.
11:21 asciilifeform Framedragger: they are, and 'p' shoots it in the head.
11:21 Framedragger sure.
11:21 * Framedragger also wonders about pure rsa performance. guess we'll see :)
11:22 asciilifeform Framedragger: most of the time folks spend 'waiting for rsa' in, e.g., gnupg, is spent waiting for the idiot /dev/random
11:22 trinque sometimes people can think of two, even three fruits at a time!
11:22 asciilifeform Framedragger: if you don't believe this, go, profile it, see.
11:22 mircea_popescu moreover not all fruits are blocking ; and some things are just good hygiene at low cost
11:23 Framedragger asciilifeform: i guess i should. yeah fair enough. btw iirc there's still no markable security difference between urandom and random?
11:23 mircea_popescu not on freebsd at any rate.
11:23 mircea_popescu or was it debian.
11:23 mircea_popescu o wait...
11:23 asciilifeform if yer /dev/random is fed by intel crapolade, then also
11:24 asciilifeform or if whitened (is there a linux kernel where it isn't..?)
11:24 asciilifeform or, or.

11:50 asciilifeform 'i'd like 10,000 shares of Night Train plox'

15:58 mircea_popescu the global warming consensus is that jews did wtc.
15:59 mircea_popescu Framedragger anyway, stalin or no stalin, the marxist "perspective" is exactly "a study of antarctica from the point of view of santa's factory"
16:13 asciilifeform speaking of world's largest and least defensible golden toilets, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maZdUtB0ojs << very very speshul one, public only recently

16:17 mats interesting
16:17 asciilifeform http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-23#1572807 << 1 shell for the mega-cannon probably costs 5mil. and a reload of all of the toilet paper holders on board -- perhaps the full 10.

16:18 mircea_popescu which is exactly why they're gonna pay.
16:19 ben_vulpes the ships, along with the plane, are such a delightful distillation of the disintegration in place
16:23 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: the pictured plane -- there are supposedly ~four~ of
16:24 mats hes probably referring to the f-35
16:24 asciilifeform possibly. the ultimate platinum-iridium-diamond toilet.
16:24 ben_vulpes mats has it
16:24 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: that monster flies, though
16:24 asciilifeform iirc f35 also knew how to fly. for short bursts.
16:25 ben_vulpes knew?
16:25 asciilifeform well it was sold as a 'software-controlled, smart' whateverthefuck
16:25 asciilifeform intrinsically-unstable surfaces, or what was it.
16:26 mats too bad the army doesn't have a mega-visible, five-years-behind and 100bn-cost-overrun project of its own
16:26 mats that'd complete the trifecta
16:27 asciilifeform mats: how about war-in-afghan?
16:27 asciilifeform or not project-enough.
16:27 mircea_popescu really they should make one of those inept walking-tanks
16:27 ben_vulpes the v8 donkey!
16:27 mircea_popescu god knows us military stole everything else from georg lucas
16:27 mats lol
16:28 asciilifeform aha! and was in fact described in j. sladek's (1980s) 'tiktok'
16:28 mircea_popescu imagine you know, a 200mn a piece, 500 ton bipedal battle tank
16:28 asciilifeform army wanted too! so build a land carrier.
16:28 asciilifeform on wheels.

16:36 mats this white nationalism stuff is entertaining++
16:36 mats 'forgive yourself'
16:37 asciilifeform what does mats recommend instead - wagner+cyanide ?
16:39 trinque so communist... "American President-Elect is in trouble for trying to make money with his legal business!"
16:41 mats asciilifeform: i like the sound of that
16:41 asciilifeform trinque: see, he forgot to declare it a FOUNDATION... then it'd be a-ok
16:42 asciilifeform esp if he were named clinton
16:42 ben_vulpes 501c3's show profit nao?
16:42 asciilifeform lol profit
16:43 mats the whole idea of white guilt is ridiculous
16:43 asciilifeform so long as the books sum to 0, can have luxury hookers made of caviar at the foot of every golden toilet in the office
16:43 ben_vulpes what if one has enough of those
16:44 asciilifeform iirc the thing one does when 'enough of those' is to eat one's shotgun
16:44 asciilifeform (see kobain et al)
16:44 ben_vulpes perhaps wants to 'invest' (lol) 'profits' (lol) into another venture (lol?)
16:44 asciilifeform or this. thiel et al.
16:45 ben_vulpes non profit does not serve this case of 'enough of those'.
16:45 ben_vulpes 'non profit'
16:45 trinque this altnazi vid narrator sounds fat as shit.
16:45 * ben_vulpes could not get sound to happen
16:46 asciilifeform somebody wake up BingoBoingo
16:46 asciilifeform i had nfi that it is possible to 'sound fat'
16:47 ben_vulpes haven't we done the 'make a people great again' thread as well?
16:47 ben_vulpes 'have a war, kill off 8/10'?
16:50 * ben_vulpes does not see any of these 'nazis' signing up to go fight anywhere
16:50 * ben_vulpes is trolling liberals with "look at all of the war we've waged and all of the booty we brought back" lately
16:51 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: in your view, where ought they to fight ?
16:51 asciilifeform against pashtuns in afghan, to help keep cia heroin corridor into ru open ?
16:51 ben_vulpes kinda their problem not mine
16:52 asciilifeform 'where to fight' is problem above the expendable muppet's pay grade.
16:52 ben_vulpes and so they're stuck being the third generation down.
16:52 asciilifeform if there isn't a lenin, the answer will be 'against orcs, in world of orcraft'
16:55 shinohai I find it hilarious Trump chose Ben Carson as HUD Secretary

16:56 ben_vulpes yeah that's rich
16:56 trinque I guess it has "urban" in it
16:56 ben_vulpes put the black dude in charge of the projects
16:56 shinohai keks
16:56 ben_vulpes makes this real fucked up kind of sense
16:57 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes it's altogether dubious. a) nobody wants to build in argentina atm, the market is dying ; b) it's as hamilton pointed out too little money, abuilding, wtf is a building ; c) the "journalist" this supposedly comes from has c1) no way of knowing and c2) a very good reason to lie, seeing how he's up to the eyeballs in debt which c2.1)is owed to a bunch of financially misplaced idiots who will go bankrupt if the caba r
16:57 mircea_popescu eal estate bubble actually pops.
16:57 mircea_popescu so no, there's nothing there.

16:58 mircea_popescu this is how tv works in the third world (which more and more includes the us) : derp floats something "because why not".
16:58 shinohai This from a guy who said "I'm totally not interested in serving in Trumpreich" just days ago.
16:59 mircea_popescu anway - you can buy buenos aires buildings at judicial auction for a few mil. not like it's some sort of uber big deal.
16:59 trinque shinohai: by now it should be clear that nothing anyone says in that world matters tomorrow
17:00 mircea_popescu asciilifeform> i had nfi that it is possible to 'sound fat' << very possible. low testosterone nasal male voice almost guaranteed to come from fatty.
17:00 mircea_popescu fat constricts ballsac and airways.
17:01 asciilifeform did everybody miss last night's 'mr.t kowtows to nyt and disavows 'extremists' etc.' thing ?

17:12 asciilifeform it wasn't 'any' tho
17:12 asciilifeform paradoxically, getting invaded and decimated -- is pretty good for 'you' (as biomaterial)
17:12 asciilifeform it is the 'just wanteds' who get nailed, slightly preferentially.

17:44 ben_vulpes yeah that
17:44 ben_vulpes hmk
17:44 mircea_popescu wasn't aware this is particularly controversial.
17:45 ben_vulpes just trying to weave these threads of conversation into some bizarro fabric over here

18:03 trinque CIA/NSA probably already neutered him a while ago
18:03 asciilifeform trinque: are you familiar with zhirinovsky ?
18:04 trinque I am not.
18:04 asciilifeform ru version of mr.t. 'created' in '91 when kpss decided to permit 'the first second political party'

18:12 shinohai Sorry http://btcbase.org/log/
18:12 asciilifeform now where's Dog2.

18:14 Dog1 well I have been called swinehawg (spelling in german not there ) LOL
18:15 mircea_popescu god damned this black mirror shit is unwatchable. where the fuck do they find these dumb bitchez that can't act to save their life, it's like they're not even b list. netflix has invented the c-list. and who the fuck writes this inane crap, it's like they're trying for a reboot of the venerable twilight zone / tales from the crypt, except failing to reach that high.
18:15 Dog1 and the rest of the pack will be around in time
18:15 mircea_popescu holy shit netflix is worse than mtv.
18:15 ben_vulpes trinque: oblig mug i grew up drinking out of http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/bLsAAOSw1vlUubcb/s-l1600.jpg

18:16 Dog1 got me
18:17 trinque ben_vulpes: heh, I was making a roundabout monty python reference
18:18 mircea_popescu asciilifeform i meant specifically the "naxi salute ppl are ridoinculous" bit ; re the "sparing hillary" thing the official excuse is http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-22#1572221

18:19 trinque someone might've told him he's supposed to maintain the pretense of justice dept independence
18:20 shinohai Dog1: jhvh1 has google translate
18:20 mircea_popescu anyway, i'm not entirely sure what the argument is, so i dunno.
18:21 asciilifeform argument is that this movie is a rerun of jimmy carter election, where the man promised to 'show the aliens', or obummer, who promised 'legalize dope', etc.
18:21 mircea_popescu well it is a us election thingee.
18:22 Dog1 Pick the worst of two evils
18:22 mircea_popescu the dispute around that event centers on "alf : he can't win mp: lol of course he will", ain't gonna transmute into an "alf:dun matter that he won".
18:22 asciilifeform each d00d sits down at the blinkenlights panel and starts playing with knobs, and notices that they are mostly not connected to anything; and the ones that are, if he starts twiddling, Nice Polite Folx show up and gently tell him that he must stop, or There Will Be Problems.
18:23 mircea_popescu of course it dun matter, it's a broken ikea replica of an engine.
18:23 Dog1 Alf likes Cats
18:23 mircea_popescu Dog1 who are you again ?
18:23 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: seems like we agree on that one
18:23 Dog1 just a traveller
18:23 asciilifeform lemme guess, vex is back
18:23 mircea_popescu !!down Dog1
18:23 mircea_popescu come back as a useful something.
18:24 * asciilifeform assumed that it was trinque's drinking mate or such
18:24 mircea_popescu was it ?
18:24 shinohai Eulorian
18:24 trinque I never heard of him
18:24 mircea_popescu not in #eulora ?
18:25 mircea_popescu trinque that's kinda the thing, everyone tends to assume such things because why risk offending friend of lord.
18:25 mircea_popescu prolly should be standing policy to actually announce such situations.

22:43 Framedragger (as in, if it's requested by a non-browser it'll return json - e.g. `curl ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8`)
22:43 trinque I'm loath to use people's APIs for things when I dun gotta
22:44 trinque looks like there's a geoip pyturd
22:45 Framedragger fair enough. note thought that offline geoip DBs need updating. like, tor ships with new maxmind geoip DB for AS numbers (need to ensure tor circuit is from different ASes [*dodge mp laughing*]) every month
22:45 Framedragger though*
22:46 Framedragger also reverse PTR / hostname lookup is nice
22:46 trinque yeh, dnspython does that
22:48 Framedragger ah, cool! yeah i get your api-dependence point
22:49 trinque would be different if the guy was in my wot.
22:50 trinque not that usg.dns is in my wot...
