02:40 douchebag Morning TMSR
~ 1 hours 8 minutes ~
03:48 ave1 Morning, douchebag, you're traveling through Europe now?
~ 31 minutes ~
04:20 douchebag I think those plans are going to be delayed unfortunatly.
~ 55 minutes ~
05:16 mircea_popescu a well, what else are plans for.
05:26 mircea_popescu http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/0gXiA/?raw=true << aaand in other not-news, motherfucker i CANT STAAAAAAND the "woke" ustardian crowd.
05:27 mircea_popescu what the fuck, pompous inanity in a light bore sauce. how ? how does anyone get through their days with these shits ?
05:27 douchebag The best part about making plans is when bullshit comes up and prevents said plans from taking place.
05:28 mircea_popescu douchebag so, no more europe, no more start-up ? getting married isntead or jail or what.
~ 20 minutes ~
05:48 douchebag Nah, I've just had a number of family related issues come up suddenly along with some other factors that would make it difficult for me to travel overseas within the next few months.
05:49 mircea_popescu sucks.
05:51 douchebag Shit happens, what can I say
~ 1 hours 39 minutes ~
07:30 mircea_popescu in other lulz, google "doesn't know" http://trilema.com/2015/the-anal-child/ exists ; if you google for anal child all you get is other articles that reference it, and pages like say trilema.com/2015/03 ; but the article itself "dun exist".
~ 1 hours 5 minutes ~
08:35 asciilifeform i recall (but for some reason cannot find in logz..) mircea_popescu discovering this several yrs ago
08:36 mircea_popescu i'm like an old man enjoying his feudal domains and his alzheimer's, i keep finding the same things over and over again.
08:36 mircea_popescu the joy -- undiminished, each time.
08:37 asciilifeform curious, is the ro original of the piece also on their magic list
08:37 asciilifeform or only the engl transl
08:40 mircea_popescu nope, ro is there.
08:40 mircea_popescu lotta "Prevenția înainte de toate. Cum să protejăm copiii de abuzul sexual books.google.com Translate this page Elisabeth Raffauf - 2016 - ‎Psychology" bullshit, too. of course.
08:41 mircea_popescu fucking pedo smile on that woman...
~ 2 hours 8 minutes ~
10:50 asciilifeform in other archaeology: re particle glitching : apparently even hard (100kV+) xray does ~nuffin to current-day asics , needs -- ideally -- fast neutrons (good luck finding this in jungle conditions) or at the very least hard gamma (co-60 , possibly eu-152)
10:50 mircea_popescu by now it's more likely to melt.
10:51 asciilifeform problem is in other direction, very very little actually interacts with half mm of si slice
10:51 mircea_popescu how about you know, a few Bs ?
10:52 asciilifeform slowed by the packaging, apparently
10:52 asciilifeform ( i have a pretty good B source, did nuffin )
10:53 mircea_popescu tsk
10:53 asciilifeform gold standard in heavy industrial world is apparently fast neutron. ( thermal neutron also worx )
10:53 mircea_popescu say, how about voltage shenanigans ?
10:54 asciilifeform this worked in the past, but cr50 seems to include boobytrap for voltage glitching
10:54 mircea_popescu turns it off ?
10:55 asciilifeform resets at first sign of unstable v
10:55 mircea_popescu what if you simply clip something to the power and gnd pins and harmonics the hell out of it ? o wow, really ?
10:55 asciilifeform aha
10:55 mircea_popescu a proud flagship of the confederacy of dunces.
10:56 asciilifeform particle diddling is great , in theory, as there is not really a practical defense against it
10:57 asciilifeform the satellite folx have largely given up on making logic impervious to particles, they moved to tandemism instead
10:57 asciilifeform ( not that anybody would spring for troo rad-hard in konsoomer crapola, anyway )
11:04 asciilifeform a steerable linear accelerator ( a la electron microscope's deflector ) would make for a pretty universal , if costly, fritz cure.
11:05 asciilifeform 2-5MEv ~guaranteed to flip bit.
11:05 mircea_popescu a steerable linear accelerator'd be a few million.
11:06 mircea_popescu but, yes, in characteristical fashion the problem fritz chip proposes to solve is not solvable.
11:06 asciilifeform if bought from usg, yes, million
↖
11:07 asciilifeform enemy didn't set out to make impossible wall; simply tall enuff that the headache far exceeds what anybody's willing to bother with. and to date seems to have succeeded.
11:08 mircea_popescu the success entirely depends on man-alone-ism
11:08 asciilifeform aaha
11:09 mircea_popescu amusingly, 1980s vintage siemensen can be had for as little as 20k
11:10 mircea_popescu anyway, collimation's the real problem here.
11:10 mircea_popescu afaik no nm addressable items even exist. tho they should.
↖
11:15 deedbot http://trilema.com/2018/i-dont-understand-a-fucking-word-this-man-is-saying-help-me/ << Trilema - I don't understand a fucking word this man is saying. Help me!
~ 40 minutes ~
11:56 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: ha. hence why i said 'yes 1m, if buying usg'
11:56 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: you dun need nm addressing, or much of any addressing, tho, random flippage of sram would handily suffice for just about any defritzing job
11:57 asciilifeform even better if it can be aimed without latching up power supply, etc. circuitry.
12:00 mircea_popescu a surplus medical piece's not even a bad investment in capital goods then
12:00 mircea_popescu though ideally one with a microwave source rather than some rare metal capsule.
12:01 asciilifeform hey if can get same result with a 100 $ co-60 capsule, as with 100k$ accelerator, it's a win
12:01 mircea_popescu conceivably.
12:01 asciilifeform the former is a pretty blunt knife tho.
12:03 asciilifeform funnily enuff, open market item in ameristan.
12:03 asciilifeform ships via the post ( in lead can )
12:04 mircea_popescu well, it's comparatively safe ; not like pornography or, god forbid, printed matter pertaining to abortion.
12:04 asciilifeform lol
12:06 asciilifeform ( there are some lulzy countries like ru where anyffing that radiates moar than a banana, requires note from hitler )
12:06 mircea_popescu which technically includes chinese cement, but the fanfic "fails to notice" thereby "it never happened"
12:07 asciilifeform they routinely turn away chinesium at the customs post there, on account of items like this cement.
12:08 mircea_popescu aha.
12:09 asciilifeform ( ru has possibly world's most fascist customs, recall the incident with the chinese teapots )
12:09 mircea_popescu except when they don't, but sure.
12:09 asciilifeform well naturally 'except when don't' lol
12:11 * asciilifeform fascinated with orcistani customs politic
12:11 mircea_popescu whyssat ?
12:12 asciilifeform errything from uruguay, argentina, weirdos, to diana_coman's taxed FUCKGOATS , etc
12:12 asciilifeform no rhyme or reason to it
12:13 asciilifeform usa seems to have the most permissive customs, pretty much anyffing that doesn't set off the dogs, is ignored
12:14 asciilifeform ( woe be unto the tourist carrying sausage )
12:16 mircea_popescu except girl ankle weights, aged cheeses, money, clothes that don't look like they're intended for the servants, and on it goes.
12:16 asciilifeform i've yet to see anybody anywhere give a shit re clothes
12:17 asciilifeform but possibly , idk, what did mircea_popescu have, gold-embroidered epaulettes ? diamond cuffs ?
12:17 mircea_popescu i think it's on trilema somewhere, customs dood was liek "but don't you have any normal clothes ?!"
12:18 asciilifeform what would be 'normal clothes' ?
12:20 mircea_popescu i dunno... i assume what quentin tarantino dresses jackson and travolta in, so they look like "a couple of dorks"
12:20 asciilifeform re ankle weights, possibly these look exactly like a frag in the xray
12:20 mircea_popescu likely.
12:20 asciilifeform ( in usa the inspector monkey dun even get a say, the machine's ocr thing turns on red light, and monkey is stuck filling out form )
12:21 mircea_popescu i believe.
~ 1 hours 41 minutes ~
14:03 asciilifeform http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-16#1825995 << revisiting upstack -- the chip is by far easier to move, than the beam .
14:03 a111 Logged on 2018-06-16 15:10 mircea_popescu: afaik no nm addressable items even exist. tho they should.
14:03 mircea_popescu certainly.
14:07 asciilifeform ( incidentally a cf-252 neutron source is said to cost a btc or three, but -- unsurprisingly -- not in konsoomer retail )
14:09 mircea_popescu you really working to earn that terrorist badge, arentcha
14:09 asciilifeform 'may as well hang for a sheep as for lamb' lol
14:14 asciilifeform ~pocket-sized neutron sources with 0 rare metals have been demonstrated (e.g. penning's) but rather hightech artifact
14:14 asciilifeform dunno if anybody's built in jungle conditions anyffing better than farnsworth's electrostatic confinement thing.
14:15 asciilifeform ( the latter apparently in perennial fashion among the moar moneyed 'make magazine' derps, 'look ma, i have fusion' )
14:16 asciilifeform this approach is only attractive/economical compared to linear accelerator.
14:17 BingoBoingo Gotta build jungle mud huts with the jungle mud you have, not the jungle mud you want
14:17 asciilifeform more or less
14:20 asciilifeform ( imho the gedankenexperiment of 'can haz sub-$10k 3MEv chip fuzzer?' deserves at least some log space )
14:21 mircea_popescu why sub 10k and why 3m ?
14:21 asciilifeform ( hey kanzure ! wanna do something actually useful with that '2 mil' pile of scrap gear ? )
14:21 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: rough figure
14:22 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: 3MEv is , if the satellite folx are to be believed, squarely above the boundary where enuff energy is transferred to flip bit , but not so much as to thermonuke the semiconductor
14:23 asciilifeform ( tho with every shot there is a probability of, e.g., catastrophic latchup, short circuit , magic smoke )
14:23 mircea_popescu this'd benefit from actual documentation.
14:24 asciilifeform the only open documentation seems to be from semiconductor houses , there's some material from altera co, i did not bother to link ( who wants pdf ) , can prolly dredge it up again if somebody really wants
14:25 asciilifeform aside from golden toilet satellite gear makers, it seems to be the fpga folks who most concern with 'single event upset' ( term of art for this item ) , as a flipped bit in fpga config , even down on earth, routinely translates into magicsmokerelease
14:25 mircea_popescu aha
14:26 asciilifeform interestingly (and possibly surprisingly to the uninitiated) sram is actually ~moar~ sensitive to particle than dram
14:26 asciilifeform on account of smaller capacitance of the circuit
14:27 asciilifeform most real-world 'single event' seems to originate from alpha-emitting crapola in the chip solder balls, rather than the proverbial 'cosmic ray'
14:27 asciilifeform ( the ~internal~ solder balls, which replaced ye olde gold whiskers for die to package linkage , that is )
14:27 mircea_popescu likely.
14:28 asciilifeform ( for folx who slept through kindergarten -- garden variety alpha is 5Mev and above , strictly on acct of mass )
14:29 asciilifeform recall ancient thread re semiconductor houses buying up hulls of sunken ww1 ships , cathedral roofs, etc
14:30 asciilifeform ( so that they can -- lol -- sell moar non-ecc ram ... )
14:31 mod6 <+mircea_popescu> i dunno... i assume what quentin tarantino dresses jackson and travolta in, so they look like "a couple of dorks" << hehe
14:36 asciilifeform i find it interesting that google's approach to building cr50 ( 'hardcopy fpga' ) is actually ~moar~ diddleable, via this method, than if they had shipped ordinary fpga
14:36 asciilifeform ( tho ordinary fpga is moar susceptible to classical pills )
~ 1 hours 19 minutes ~
15:55 douchebag Hey mircea_popescu, I'm going through a pretty difficult time in my life right now. I'm working a job that will not improve me as a person
15:57 douchebag Would you be willing to assign me a list of tasks to complete each week, and if I successfully complete each task would you compensate my work?
16:00 douchebag http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-15#1825875 << confess to what?
16:00 a111 Logged on 2018-06-15 20:48 asciilifeform: i suppose this one'll only get properly settled if/when douchebag confesses
16:03 douchebag I started off just messaging girls on discord and seeing if they were interested in making money andgiving me a cut
16:05 douchebag However, I found it was much easier to just pick up prostitutes and throw them some $ to show tits and walk them through the process in person
~ 53 minutes ~
16:59 asciilifeform douchebag: re works -- what do you know how to do ?
17:02 asciilifeform douchebag: personally i'm not fixated on knowing how you pulled the particular trick
17:10 BingoBoingo ^ When alf fixates on mysteries the result is NOT a sporadic comment every couple weeks
17:17 mircea_popescu douchebag not really. we had something like that a few months earlier and it went nowhere.
17:17 mircea_popescu it's true that it was geared towardsthe capacities and abilities of a presumptively independent republican lord, whereas you evidently need more hands-on tutoring and training. this isn't the end of the world, of course, but it is strictly uninteresting to me, as i expect to get a slavegirl out of that degree of involvement, and you don't pass the bioquals.

17:37 asciilifeform douchebag: with the sheer abundance of unsolved boojums, even in past few wks of log, it boggles my mind why you do not pick one up and make it yer own
17:37 mircea_popescu can't do that until middle-class "rich"
17:41 asciilifeform d00d seems to have ~some~ spare time, neh
17:43 mircea_popescu there's a reason i do this level with girls. in between the "gotta eat", which readily and correctly is resolved by "eat out of the slave trough" and "i got ideas and things, which readily is correctly resoved by the whip, there's just too many failure modes.
17:50 asciilifeform if memory serves, the survival record for n00bz that drift so quickly to the 'how do i pay rent from this' phase, is poor
17:52 mircea_popescu eh, the record of "i am independently wealthy lalala" folk isn't good either.
17:52 asciilifeform who do we have in this weight category aside from mircea_popescu ?
17:52 mircea_popescu truth be told, the republic isn't really for anyone.
17:53 mircea_popescu like science, you know, there's not 1 scientist per 10k "sciences" academia departments.
17:53 mircea_popescu asciilifeform eg, you had some friend come over long ago, was going to do laser work for early model of fuckgoats ?
17:53 mircea_popescu or take pete d, or who the hell else. plenty of people.
17:54 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: diametric ? last i knew, he had too many childrenz, went to the same bottom of the sea as those folx tend to go to
17:54 mircea_popescu also not a rare problem.
17:55 asciilifeform d00d wasn't 'wealthy' tho, in any sense i can think of
17:56 mircea_popescu i said "middle class rich".
17:56 asciilifeform aa
17:56 asciilifeform ( asciilifeform rowed in the same galley as him, for a while under his command )
17:57 asciilifeform 'middle class rich' folx are typically inch short of being flat broke. ( this is likely not a surprise to mircea_popescu )
17:58 asciilifeform and the moar they succumb to usg 'investments', the moar broke
17:58 mircea_popescu like having children ?
17:58 asciilifeform for instance
17:58 mircea_popescu right.
17:58 asciilifeform followed shortly by startupism, realestatism, etc
17:59 asciilifeform ( the former is a pretty reliable way to lose one's shirt, in asciilifeform's experience )
17:59 mircea_popescu these are all plied specifically as ways to plug the printing press circuitry, lest it leaks.
17:59 mircea_popescu work pretty well, too.
18:00 asciilifeform verily, worx great.
18:00 mircea_popescu as naggum well put it, "have a kid or two, a start-up or two, an ambulance ride or two, suddenly your imaginary independence you sacrificed your youth for is nowehre in sight"
18:00 asciilifeform aaha
18:00 asciilifeform in current-day ameristan, just takes 1 ambulance ride, really, if planets align correctly
18:01 asciilifeform or 1 dumb kid, or 1 'underwater' piece of land, etc.
18:01 mircea_popescu but, the working of the wool shear is not for the sheep to meditate upon.
18:01 mircea_popescu they got grass to process.
18:01 asciilifeform oddly enuff the sheep sometimes appear to be entirely aware.
18:01 asciilifeform but line up, go figure, anyway, for shears.
18:01 mircea_popescu this is the way of sheep, to appear to be entirely aware.
18:01 mircea_popescu it's why people fuck them, sometimes.
18:01 asciilifeform this has to be it.
18:02 mircea_popescu hey, wanna never have to kill anyone, learn to like the soylent.
18:03 BingoBoingo Maybe some people just like walking around with a dick that smells of lanolin without using lotion?
18:06 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: picture, d00d gets hold of a few coins, then... sells ( why? to buy diapers ? i dunno )
18:06 mircea_popescu they're not real until sold, rite ?
18:06 asciilifeform somethinglikethat
18:12 asciilifeform upstack, pete_d might qualify as example. i still have nfi what his problem was.
18:12 asciilifeform ( possibly, not knowing how to do anyffing useful )
18:12 mircea_popescu in other solipsisms, i threw out a rebours & l'innocente, because the suck, re-reading my zuleika rewrite instead, very happy with it.
18:12 asciilifeform ( afaik d00d was burdened by no day jobs )
18:13 mircea_popescu asciilifeform had job, kids, marriage, circle of friends, everything else. like cazalla say or w/e.
18:14 asciilifeform i dun recall any mention of job. but aside from that, yea
18:15 asciilifeform d00d decided he'd rather degrease old porche engines, rather than tmsr.
18:16 mircea_popescu i don't think it's nearly as rare as you think.
18:16 asciilifeform not rare. ( where is, e.g., mike_c ? Framedragger ? etc )
18:17 asciilifeform characteristically, nothing is ever heard , at least from asciilifeform's observatory, re the marvelous feats of degreasing , afterward
18:18 mircea_popescu there isn't really much to tell, which is why "happily ever after" goes the expression.
18:18 asciilifeform one time i remember writing to kako, asked 'so what great things you accomplished since', answer was hissy fit
18:19 asciilifeform 'who said i have to write for you to read, motherfucker' etc
18:19 mircea_popescu well... isn't that right ?
18:19 asciilifeform sure. dun really make a diff, to me.
18:20 asciilifeform but imho entomologically interesting.
18:20 asciilifeform 'proudly going my way!' d00d with 0 words to say.
18:20 mircea_popescu if every brick standing for eight to twenty centuries in an indistinct wall spoke the whole time we'd go mad.
18:21 mircea_popescu imagine the patter!
18:21 asciilifeform if bricks could speak, betcha there'd be a subreddit for'em
18:22 mircea_popescu "today, a snail came. i am not sure about this new moss growing. the wind is uncharacteristically global this time of the cycle. bla, bla, bla..."
18:22 asciilifeform 'there is a nest of spiders in me'
18:22 mircea_popescu Finisce sempre cosi, con la morte. Prima, però, c'è stata la vita. La vita, nascosta sotto il bla, bla, bla, bla, bla. Tutto è sedimentato sotto il chiacchiericcio e il rumore : il silenzio è il sentimento, l'emozione e la paura. Gli sparuti, incostanti sprazzi di bellezza. E poi lo squallore disgraziato e l'uomo miserabile. Tutto è sepolto dalla coperta dell'imbarazzo dello stare al mondo. Bla, bla, bla, bla, bla.
18:22 asciilifeform i can actually picture bricks in some old walls having something of interest to say. in this sense the biomass in fact loses to brick !
18:23 asciilifeform 'if the walls could speak'.
18:23 mircea_popescu if the walls could speak, no one would listen to any degree. there's already too much to read.
18:24 asciilifeform ( the brits seem to be afflicted by a belief that... they can speak. witness the demolition of the prison where they murdered rudolf hess; or the bulldozing of every place the skripal d00d ever sat down in; etc )
18:25 asciilifeform but sure.
18:27 mircea_popescu eh, england's a shithole to the degree a waspnest better approximates it. they have to constantly tear down old cells to chew into new ones.
18:27 asciilifeform i suppose 'heretic sat here' is as good excuse as any, for demolition
18:27 asciilifeform iirc just recently BingoBoingo linked to a BingoBoingostani piece re some dopehead's house being bulldozed
18:32 asciilifeform !!up kanzure
18:33 deedbot kanzure voiced for 30 minutes.
18:33 mircea_popescu they have this HUGE problem in the orclands with "buildings" without title on land the builders don't own.
18:33 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: even in moscow
18:33 mircea_popescu owing on one hand to the extreme cheapness of building materials and on the other hand to the absolutely beaslty notions of southern socialism, as to the "rights" the scum has.
18:34 asciilifeform kanzure: if you got something to say, it goes here, not in pm
18:34 mircea_popescu anyway, there's this constant "oh, there's a lot of us, what can you do". i dunno... machine gun the leftovers after extracting all prostitutable girlies ? how about ?
18:37 asciilifeform the great biomass reducers of the past, tamerlane to old man schicklgruber , never had any problem realizing 'what can do', aha
18:38 mircea_popescu did they ever establish whether granpa alois was actually somewhat jewish ?
18:39 asciilifeform afaik unknown, young feller had the archives cremated after anschluss
18:40 asciilifeform there's 2 separate j00 versions tho, there's one where he's bastard son of a iirc merchant
18:41 kanzure asciilifeform: did you need something from me?
18:41 asciilifeform kanzure: there was a bit of useful work for a fella with a linear accelerator, see logs.
18:41 kanzure oh, i don't believe in particle acceleration
18:42 asciilifeform aite.
18:42 mircea_popescu ah there it is, Leopold Frankenberger, the 19yo son of the jewish family where the 40yo grandmother worked as a cook. this is ~about what i recalled.
~ 18 minutes ~
19:00 mircea_popescu you know, the whole pile re hitler ancestry is fucking hysterical. fellow "absorbed austrian granite through his father", believe it or not. whatever that might mean.
19:02 mircea_popescu on the otherhand, but just as amusing, the simple and plainly evident fact that period europe consisted of ~way~ the fuck more people who couldn't stand jews than of people who liked hitler is, somehow, not much of a subject for the pomposity calling itself "scholarship". really, this happenstance doesn't happen to be at all interesting, somehiw ?
19:10 mircea_popescu oodles upon oodles of discussions of "antisemitism", a term very substantially like phologiston : its mere inclusion in a text constitutes an ironclad guarantee that nothing intelligent, useful or interesting will be found there.
19:10 mircea_popescu "mommy, mommy, the kids in school hate me." "why ?" "THEYRE BARBARIC!!!!" "oh, i see!"
~ 51 minutes ~
20:01 BingoBoingo From the mines: "
20:01 BingoBoingo "It got to the point where they were showing me that the president of Nigeria had sent me a letter. It had his picture on it and everything," Haines said. "I looked it up on the computer to see what the Nigerian president looked like, and it was him." Once, he received an email claiming to be from Robert Mueller, who was then the FBI director. The email was addressed to Haines, code-name "B-DOG," and it was signed with the FBI's address
20:01 BingoBoingo and official seal. "I wish you can remove doubt and suspicious and go ahead I assured you that you will never regret this fund release," the email said in part."
20:02 mircea_popescu people usually send letters with their own picture on them where this guy is from ?!
20:02 mircea_popescu what, like an xmas card ?
20:05 BingoBoingo Typical USG strategy: "Mircea Popescu can't exist, he has a blog and pictures and everything"
20:07 BingoBoingo Only Elon Musk Oxen with twitters and privacy can be rich
20:07 mircea_popescu wait, the president of nigeria rich ?!
20:07 BingoBoingo All that oil
20:08 BingoBoingo Like Maduro, except he can pump his
20:09 mircea_popescu lol
20:11 BingoBoingo That is the great tragedy of Venezuala. All that oil and... It's the sticky heavy stuff.
20:17 BingoBoingo Not quite as much so as the sticky stuff in pete land, but not exactly pipe friendly
20:20 douchebag mircea_popescu: Well, my main issue is that I don't work for free. I'm not going to spend time working on a project that I will not even be compensated for when I could be spending my time working on projects that I will compensated for.
20:20 mircea_popescu makes sense.

23:41 asciilifeform meanwhile, in oldies, asciilifeform recently acquired a specimen of the famous http://mk90.blogspot.com/2009/09/85.html pocket comp ( was made, from late-perestroika psychosis, in chassic copied from a jp calculator ) . pdp11 (!) compatible box.
23:42 asciilifeform the noteworthy bit, is that the unit -- stamped 1991 -- has the original factory seal. and on account of the design of the box, can show that: ~original~ 1991 batteries, still function.
23:43 asciilifeform that there apparently some primo atlantean lost tech.
23:44 asciilifeform ( to be utterly pedantic, it is possible that somebody applied a faux seal. or that the batteries were swapped by orig maker, who guaranteed them for two (!) yrs after ~sale~ )
23:46 asciilifeform summary : su made a pdp-11 that 1) ran on 20 milliampere 2) included such things as a... supercapacitor ( i had nfi that even 1 of these was ever made in su ) that powers the sram ( yes ) for ~15 minutes~ during batt swap.
23:47 asciilifeform this last bit, made it possible for this box to be used ( until, reportedly, as late as 2007 ) for crypto.
