    mircea_popescu: i'm with you.
    
    mircea_popescu: it boggles the mind.
    
    pankkake: thought most TV show piracy seem to be non-US
    
    pankkake: -t
    
    pankkake: waiting months for badly dubbed versions isn't really appealing
    
    BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: You are welcome. A good QR gun is hard to find.
    
    kakobrekla: well, that depends - if you put down 500euro, the task get significantly easier
    
    BingoBoingo: pankkake: Thank you for including on of my posts in your essential reading list.
    
    kakobrekla: but yeah, no luck so far BingoBoingo.
    
    kakobrekla: BingoBoingo, actually its much cheaper to get some whatever android phone and use that to scan it
    
    
    
    BingoBoingo: Well, last I checked the Mac SE/30 is still genning its first NetPG key pair

    mircea_popescu: lol that's broken
    
    BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, I'm trying a 128 Kbit key on it. If it can be air gapped... At least it seems to have decent entropy so far.
    
    assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 6700 @ 0.00084111 = 5.6354 BTC [+]
    
    mircea_popescu: you know, you don't really need excessive keys in any sense.
    
    mircea_popescu: do you understand how pgp/gpg works ?
    
    pankkake: BingoBoingo: can you monitor cpu usage? if it's idle it could be entropy starved
    
    mircea_popescu: it's def entropy starved.
    
    pankkake: I wrote an application that had a very slow test suite, and it turned out, it was that issue; having an option to use another source for tests resulted in a massive speedup
    
    pankkake: took me quite some time to figure it out :/
    
    BingoBoingo: It might be. It's a fucking motorola 68030 chip. NetBSD is alway lacking in the minority architectures.
    
    asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: 'commodore amiga' ?
    
    mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo anyway, my point is this : whether you know or not, pgp/gpg do not use your key to encrypt the message.
    
    mircea_popescu: what they do is they encrypt a symetric cypher with your key and use that.
    
    mircea_popescu: the advantage of using a 128kb key over a 4kb key is nil :
    
    mircea_popescu: after about 1kb or so worth of key, it's more efficient to try and crack the symmetric cypher anyway
    
    BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: B&W mac running NetBSD, Trying to create an RSA key pair of decent size on it.
    
    asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: let me guess, you patched gpg for straight rsa?
    
    asciilifeform: why else 128kb key
    
    mircea_popescu: if generating the keypair takes two days, encrypting anything in straight rsa should be interesting.
    
    BingoBoingo: I want a long key moar to creat a honeytrap time sink than to be handling important shit. The airgapped iBook G3 seems to do that decently.
    
    asciilifeform: use McEliece if you're fond of mega-keys.
    
    asciilifeform: (it laughs at Shor's algo, for instance.)
    
    mircea_popescu: yeah, that's another for the list.
    
    BingoBoingo: I might have to see what that is. I just have the SE/30 I bought a decade ago for $10 (damn shit's worthless) and it takes to unix tools usually, but...
    
    mircea_popescu: why the fuck mceli and c-s never "gained acceptance in the community" i wish to know
    
    asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: for the former, sheer weight, likely.
    
    mircea_popescu: it's not that heavy
    
    mircea_popescu: dude get out, we can have .net and java, we can'rt have c-s cause it's too heavy ?
    
    asciilifeform: not cpu-wise
    
    mircea_popescu: at least it does something
    
    asciilifeform: where the hell is a luser supposed to get 512kb of entropy
    
    BingoBoingo: I wonder why the pentium beat the motorola 68060
    
    mircea_popescu: nsa!
    
    BingoBoingo: I'm trying to find now decent coldfire dev boards for cheap
    
    asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: 'freescale semiconductor.
    
    asciilifeform: about 'fiddybucks'
    
    asciilifeform: the junkyard also works
    
    asciilifeform: (old 'palm pilots')
    
    mircea_popescu: basically i'd guess motorola just didn't do enough marketing.
    
    BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I've found a few second hand ones and most smell like they've been through my recommended disposal procedure already.
    
    asciilifeform: classic palm pilot makes a fairly good 'airgap box' - no rf-anything, and small enough to be caged with minimal effort.
    
    asciilifeform: only problem, your key won't fit in the ram.
    
    mircea_popescu: 64k ?
    
    asciilifeform: right
    
    mircea_popescu: asciilifeform http://blockitpocket.com/how_it_works.htm
    
    asciilifeform: that'd be the 'luxury model'
    
    asciilifeform: usually people use a foil bag.
    
    mircea_popescu: tinfoil, so pase
    
    mircea_popescu: silver!
    
    asciilifeform: phun phact: afaik there's exactly one manufacturer of silver fiber cloth
    
    asciilifeform: they market to the 'tinfoil' crowd
    
    asciilifeform: which is large enough to sustain the whole business
    
    asciilifeform: they also make... pillows.
    
    mircea_popescu: lol
    
    BingoBoingo: If only python had Macros, Loper-OS could be built on that shit
    
    asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: if you'd like to know why not, here's the short version - http://www.loper-os.org/?p=55
    
    asciilifeform: (shorter yet - 'can't mold a bullet from shit. even if you put rocket fins on the turd.')
    
    BingoBoingo: Thanks asciilifeform, I like when you tie these ideas together.

    asciilifeform: benkay: read the listing (written by mp, not me); there is a promise not to dilute
    
    benkay: i see that
    
    asciilifeform: so, the way i understand, any new shares are automatically priced at a moving average of a long period preceding the issue.

    pankkake: As I gather, the MPEx PR department currently consists of one person, paid to post pictures of pretty girls in Bitcoin forums.
    
    asciilifeform: pankkake: review was based primarily on the free demo, and the correspondence which led up to the latter.
    
    benkay: the other line that's amusing in retrospect is "I, for one, will wait for the fully-decentralized systems."
    
    benkay: (just taking the piss, asciilifeform)
    
    asciilifeform: in a sufficiently-hostile environment, full decentralization (of mechanical function, if not necessarily administration) is the only answer.
