asciilifeform: '22-bit RSA integer' lel
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (petermlambert) Tldr: factored a 22 bit number
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (petermlambert) 22 bit today, 4096 tomorrow?
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (petermlambert) btw, you are either a very fast reader or you already saw this?
asciilifeform: saw
asciilifeform: dwave reminds asciilifeform of certain 18th c alchemists & their relation to their sponsors
asciilifeform: 'gotta dump moar dough in, anyffin but throwing in the towel, realizing what gullible idjit i was'
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (petermlambert) Does it stand for "demon-wave" ?
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (petermlambert) How much RSA'ing can you even do with 22 bit key?
asciilifeform: nfi, but it's a well-known scamola, black hole for $ (largely from usg & usgcorps)
asciilifeform: 22bit key factors in 1m or so on 486...
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (petermlambert) We'll know they have cracked it when our bitcoin is gone, neh?
asciilifeform: oblig see l0gz re theory of rsa pill, bombing of coventry, etc
asciilifeform: applies to ecdsa pill & etc
asciilifeform: a smart pill finder will prolly take home e.g. shitoshi's coinz & stop there
asciilifeform: moar than enuff gold, imho, for any alchemist
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (petermlambert) Take enough to be happy, but not enough to make it all worthless?
asciilifeform: aaha
