asciilifeform: !!key cgra

deedbot: Not registered.

asciilifeform: cgra wouldja please get in the wot ? i'd like to link to you in the coming article re the bug fix , but currently haven't anything but the log to link..

snsabot: Logged on 2020-11-18 14:59:52 asciilifeform: update re ch14 : cgra's statement was correct, indeed only need to ignore the carry. the test tapes also pass ( though had to change the tapespace limit to actually run'em)

cgra: asciilifeform: how much do i have time before you publish?

asciilifeform: cgra: at least until sunday

cgra: asciilifeform: if one wanted to switch to ffa once it matures, would there be any point in 'converting' the old gpg identity, or just need a fresh key?

asciilifeform: cgra: i did write a script for verifying classic gpg sigs w/ ffa. and there's another (presently unpublished) one for converting pubkeys. but i do not intend to continue using my old key after completion of ffa, no.

shinohai: cgra http://btc.info.gf/gpg/rsa/shinohai.peh

asciilifeform: just to take the fact, for instance, that i did not own a trng when generated that key..

asciilifeform: and recall this.

cgra: so smth like sign the new peh key with the old key, with a message saying "this is new me", destroy the old key and be done with it?

shinohai: i need fresh fuckgoats and generate nyoo keyz tbh :/

asciilifeform: i wouldn't destroy -- never know when e.g. the last words of a friend might end up sent ciphered to your old gpg key

cgra: right... just put to the coldest of storages

asciilifeform: or for that matter if yer reading old ciphertexts (careful folx dun leave plaintexts lying around long term)

asciilifeform: aha.

asciilifeform: shinohai: what means 'fresh' here? didja actually manage to kill a unit ?

asciilifeform: ( afaik no one has, to date )

cgra: asciilifeform: sunday 11pm utc, is that an acceptable deadline? if i'm not in wot by then, just pull the publish trigger

asciilifeform: cgra: ok. i'm not in a terrible hurry tho. may well take longer.

asciilifeform wonders how long it'll take to find 100% of the mistakes asciilifeform made in the era when he ~was~ in a hurry..

asciilifeform: 'the miser pays twice'(tm)

cgra: ok, i'll keep in touch by then so you know how it went

asciilifeform: cgra: ty

shinohai: i gaffed asciilifeform i just need to use fg unit i *do* have to create new rsa key. have old key for deedbot as it is currently.

shinohai: but the .peh key worx too

asciilifeform: a.

asciilifeform: ACHTUNG, readers! at long last, all (afaik) links to old loggers on asciilifeform's www now point correctly to the current one. incl. such that appeared in comments. if anyone sees a broken link (incl. selector links, which i suspect may be tripped by this) plox to write in !!

asciilifeform recs that other folx do similarly. btcbase.org is a mp-controlled domain, iirc. expires in ~5y, but could easily display goatse tomorrow for all anyone knows...
