mircea_popescu: i am saying that numerous concepts are employed in a way which belies unfamiliarity with the field, and the general structuring of the narrative is such that you suspect the author does not have a birds eye view of the topic.
mircea_popescu: neither of those goes with the alleged author, unless he was very very drunk at the time.

mircea_popescu: look at that shit.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i think he was thinking about the other one
mircea_popescu: basically every contact in the "press" is being herded to defend this holy grail of "tor is actually safe"
asciilifeform: to be fair, there is a long tradition here in the usa of first arming some fellows and then sending armies to bump them off
asciilifeform: so it is even possible that one set of bureaucrats commissioned TOR and another, 'anti-' TOR
mircea_popescu: it's possible, but not likely. what happened is that one set of bureaucrats made tor at great expense, and another set used it in a disaster-of-commons way
mircea_popescu: now the former are trying to fix their broken china.
asciilifeform: sort of like the Soviet scenario of KGB vs GRU, or Hitler's 'two in a box' management style of abwehr vs gestapo.
mircea_popescu: sort of like the bureaucratic scenario.
mircea_popescu: this is why big governments can't have nice things, irrespective of what uyou might have heard.
asciilifeform: they occasionally pull off nice things, but solely by crowning a viceroy (e.g. Korolev) who has absolute grasp over some fiefdom.
mircea_popescu: so then "by becoming small government"
mircea_popescu: why yes, yes they do. that's the fucking argument.

mircea_popescu: but anyway, for everyone's lolfactor : ion tiriac is a rich romanian banker guy. his son is a retard.
mircea_popescu: coupla years back he was caught with ~3kgs of uncut cocaine in his car, and had his license suspended
mircea_popescu: i guess it's a good thing he didn't try to sell it on silkroad.
mircea_popescu: it'd have taken all of six months and landed him in jail for 800 years on account of it being bought by a dozen different undercover agents working for five or six different agencies.
thestringpuller: is that the reporter?
thestringpuller: ion tiriac?
thestringpuller: where did ion tiriac come up then?
mircea_popescu: well, it's a little anecdote i just recounted.
asciilifeform: pg. 16: "In our time in the lab, we found that running an nmap on a node that isoffering a hidden service will turn up the port that the hidden service is using to deal with incoming connections. It can then be directly connected to, outside of Tor."
asciilifeform: these fellows ever heard of iptables?
mircea_popescu: i don't think this problem is avoidable
asciilifeform: if you configure the damn thing right, the only external port is TOR's standard one
asciilifeform: every 'onion' luser knows this
asciilifeform: except, apparently, the monkey
mircea_popescu: jesuis check this shit out
mircea_popescu: that loads up a document G:/shared/azdwebpage/blabla
mircea_popescu: basically, a box running windows 95 ?
mircea_popescu: holy shit, it's a .wpd
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what i meant was, as long as you have a port open, it's open for nmap too.
mircea_popescu: in retrospect is not what you meant.
asciilifeform: even the lowest luser knows, i imagine, that you set up the service (e.g. http) on a local port, and expose only the tor port.
asciilifeform: the fellow running the port scan will see that the machine runs tor, and that's it
asciilifeform: this isn't exactly worthless info by itself, though

mircea_popescu: it will run just fine w/o wget, and w/o avahi, and without jesus fucking christ.
mircea_popescu: ubuntu is windows.
pankkake: even other distros do require wget
pankkake: ubuntu-standard is windows, certainly, but wget isn't a good example
mircea_popescu: no, imo ity's the best example.
asciilifeform: never seen a linux box (save cut-down ones i prepared for various purposes) w/out wget or curl on it.
mircea_popescu: there is no sane reason to require wget for -standard.
mircea_popescu: you don't have wget, you can't use internet.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform still not a reason to require it.
asciilifeform: i think the updater on various 'friendly' package systems demands wget/curl/the like
asciilifeform: for fetching whatever.
mircea_popescu: that's another thing
mircea_popescu: there's no reason for -standard to depend on the updater being present.
mircea_popescu: people go fucking crazy over "having a car requires you having insurance"
asciilifeform: wait till you see how many packages pull in xorg for no particular reason.
mircea_popescu: then go around putting retarded dependencies in software.
mircea_popescu: the ridiculous thing is, they have the concept of "recommended". not like it's either depend or nothing.
thestringpuller: wget is so laaaame though
thestringpuller: it can't grok links at all
thestringpuller: cURL is so much better
thestringpuller: also the ubuntu updater is based on aptitude no? why not just base something on debian instead of ubuntu?

mircea_popescu: well to their credit the 4chaners succeed a lot better than the redditards.
pankkake: well, reddit is famous for stealing content. many top posts "my daughter made this" etc. revealed to be fake
pankkake: that's when you realize karma, user moderation is shit
mircea_popescu: usg generally is a hopeless endeavour.
mircea_popescu: turns out there's not an army of competent and dedicated people just waiting for the chance to make nice things for free.
jurov: so what's new about nsa labs except some lame bet?
mircea_popescu: who knew, seriously. and how racist, chauvinist and everything that is.
mircea_popescu: jurov not much.
pankkake: that certainly is a lame bet
jurov: and website that redirects to http://mpex.co/index.php?mpsic=S.NSA
mircea_popescu: well, domain.
thestringpuller: you must have had a bad experience with reddit mircea_popescu
jurov: good.. and eulora does have some site?
mircea_popescu: jurov nope.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller notrly.
jurov: i'd like to try newest eulora client, it's somewhere?
mircea_popescu: well yeah, same place

pankkake: so I tried to make an altcoin (the bernankoin), but I'm stuck. not having bitcointalk doesn't help either
kakobrekla: well,
kakobrekla: do you have a logo?
mircea_popescu: or did you mean the precompiled ?
pankkake: no, that must be why it doesn't work!
pankkake: actually I'm stuck at the genesis block, or something like that (but I fixed the problem that is on the altcoin howto, not the one I have now)
jurov: yes... just wanted to explore around
pankkake: .bz ?
kakobrekla: biznis
mircea_popescu: server may be down if they're dicking with it tho, so might have to retry later.
pankkake: no that's .biz
kakobrekla: no thats business
pankkake: belize. the country of bitcoin scams
mircea_popescu: anyway, i think we have a s.nsa logo
mircea_popescu: anyone here a logo artist ?
kakobrekla: hire that solar mining company guy
kakobrekla: he does wonders
jurov: i can add cherries and trucks and rainbows
mircea_popescu: can't detect if serious
mircea_popescu: or ima end up with angry guy face all over my logo
jurov: im srs!!!
kakobrekla: am i ever?
pankkake: I've done crappy logos with inkscape
pankkake: or even gimp
kakobrekla: with gimp you can logo like a chimp!
pankkake: oh, the american NSA logo is hard. I wanted to try a parodyw
mircea_popescu: i was thinking eagle-holding-cox
mircea_popescu: but meh.
pankkake: what I would see is NSA, with the A being a flask

dexX7: not so much information, but nice to read, to continue with my first statement ;)
dexX7: >_<
dexX7: so why are the forums still down? i mean, 90 % of all "job offers" are "i'm a dev etc." posts. is the hole crew so uberleet?
pankkake: looking for how they got hacked so it doesn't happen again?
Kleeck__: Last I read Theymos said they were rebuilding the server and reinstalling the software stack.
dexX7: pankkake: yes, that's the goal. there is a 50 btc bounty for the one who can reconstruct the hack.
assbot: [BTCTC] [PETA-MINE] 26 @ 0.45 = 11.7 BTC [-]
dexX7: how wrong this is..
dexX7: actually they do want to liquidate the coins
dexX7: and the best for the community would be to just "lose" them
asciilifeform: let's say they burn DPR's computer on a pyre in the public square. This would in principle accomplish the same thing.
dexX7: i'm not that interested that stupid fbi guys unload 28k in a market order =D
asciilifeform: like firing gold into the sun. anyone who holds the metal would be slightly richer.
dexX7: yes
dexX7: I support the idea that the FBI should set up a Bitcoin faucet to give these back to the community slowly. << well okay, that's a cute idea

mircea_popescu: lmao that;s some urlizing right there
pankkake: too bony
ThickAsThieves: if i were the fbi and saw that change.org crap i'd basically be devising the way to cause the most tears
ChaangNoi: she has a long neck
ChaangNoi: change.org crap? im out of the loop
ThickAsThieves: reddites telling fbi to give SR btc to the 'community'
mircea_popescu: he's never coming out either way.
ChaangNoi: thank dex
pankkake: how the fuck is that news
ChaangNoi: hmm if the fbi kept the btc, the rest of the btc would be worth more...
ThickAsThieves: i guess that makes all of youtube news
ChaangNoi: fbi giving the funds to the bitcoinfoundation or whatdver would not look good imo
ThickAsThieves: maybe they should send it to the btc address with the most coins
pankkake: but why would they give it? when they seize usds, they don't give it to the usd community
pankkake: it makes zero sense
pankkake: brain not found
asciilifeform: the pyre. and sell tickets. better ROI.
mircea_popescu: pankkake you don't understand reddit. ask it anything, it'll say the same thing : "i want sum gimme"
ChaangNoi: that seems like it will go no where
Diablo-D3: [07:15:04] <pankkake> but why would they give it? when they seize usds, they don't give it to the usd community
Diablo-D3: actually they do
Diablo-D3: the fbi consumes siezed USD as part of their budget
Diablo-D3: thus allowing the fbi to do more on their congressional budget
Diablo-D3: thus giving back to america
pankkake: lulz
Diablo-D3: fucked up isnt it
jurov: good. let's go ask reddit to sign a petition for fbi to invest it into mpoe bonds
pankkake: no, they would ask to bail out labcoin
ThickAsThieves: can we insist they spend it on hookers and blow?
mircea_popescu: they could pay to blow hookers...
blastbob1: we can put them into more tor open source development
blastbob1: they would like that
ThickAsThieves: yeah have them donate it to Tor
mircea_popescu: blastbob1 blasts right in lol
mircea_popescu: i third the motion.

dexX7: so let's say you cloak and sign traffic with gpg or something like that.. like you do for order transmission. that's what ssl does, right?
mircea_popescu: that's what ssl pretends to do.
dexX7: yes, because it's via a 3rd party
dexX7: right?
mircea_popescu: not exactly and not just. think about it : gpg requires that i have your public key to send you stuff
mircea_popescu: and you have mine to reply.
mircea_popescu: ssl only requires you have the server's public key. it's thus half a protocol.
mircea_popescu: more importantly, using pgp-style tools you have a dedicated signature identification step. you somehow acquire my signature. such as, from me.
dexX7: ah i see
mircea_popescu: in ssl, you acquire it on the basis that a third party says its ok, much like the dns system.
mircea_popescu: the dns system is notoriously insecure, as proven by all the cache poisoning attacks etc.
mircea_popescu: recently google had its domains hijacked and there was jack shit it could do. for like days.

mircea_popescu: in opposition to this, something like scp over keybased ssh would be secure, in the sense you can't read messages.
mircea_popescu: it would still not be anyonymous, which is in general a much harder problem than cryptography. which is why bitcoin is secure but not anonymous, and why tor fails to deliver on anonymity etc.

pankkake: quoting real things labcoin said though
dexX7: zhenhua_wang = the guy who wrote the message which is on pastebin. he never was here on irc.
dexX7: yup, pankkake
mircea_popescu: pankkake the distinction blurs.
pankkake: labcoin is trolling itself so yes
mircea_popescu: some emo chick that doesn't wash ironically is still an slovenly slut.
mircea_popescu: dexX7 anyway, it's common for pr to repeat the official line. -pr quotes me all the time.
mircea_popescu: how's that prove it's a troll.
dexX7: hm? i'm just saying that "zhenhua_wang" has probably no connection to the "real" labcoin team
dexX7: just to underline that this is not the guy who wrote the message
mircea_popescu: but probably why ? on the basis of what ?
dexX7: 1. those quotes are from user "labcoin" (persona "sam" which is actually alessia), 2. howard/zhenhua wang is external and was hired by labcoin to create an asic, 3. wang never appeared on the forums/irc
dexX7: so how likely is it that this guy surprisingly appears on irc to mock labcoiners?
dexX7: according to the messages he was scammed by them, too and he seems to be a nice guy :)
