asciilifeform: shinohai: 'wall' was a catch-all name for the (economically impossible) notion of bringing back 1952

asciilifeform: SILENTLY IGNORED, gold
asciilifeform: btw if anyone is looking for something to do, getting hold of a copy of diddled freebsd and generating several hundred thousand ssh and pgp keys, would be spiffy
asciilifeform has been planning to do this for most of a year now, but has not enough hands
BingoBoingo: In still other news St Louis now has Syrian refugees leaving St Louis as refugees. Double Refugee
mircea_popescu: once a refugee...
BingoBoingo: The ones settled in South St Louis very happy with South St Louis, but the ones settled in NORTH St Louis...
BingoBoingo: Well settled isn't right word
Framedragger: asciilifeform: looks like some folks may have generated ssl certs this way, too...
Framedragger: would be nice to run a netcraft-like service which observes all searchable internet's certificates..
Framedragger: /me dreams
mircea_popescu: not even that expensive.
BingoBoingo: ALso Nikki Haley condemned to UN Ambassador position, sound like career ender for the Governor.
trinque: Framedragger: it'd be a step towards a republican search engine too
trinque: something like pagerank with the logs being heavily favored over all other content would be quite useful
trinque: decent way to pick gems from the mountain of shit
Framedragger: i suppose the system could then also integrate with gns, in the sense that gns-listed content could in principle be searched, too..
mircea_popescu: google is ~worthless as it is, certainly there's a hole here.
trinque: given a concept of the top, you can do things like "archive all content within L2 of logs"
trinque: unfairness makes the world so manageable
Framedragger: trinque: L2 here means two edges away from logs?
trinque: correct
mircea_popescu: in principle it would be very gns-based. if i sign btcbase/logs mkj.lt/log trilema.com etc, you can do "signed:mp" in your search box and get results from THESE
mircea_popescu: and obviously signed:mp&signed:alf ; or signed:mp||signed:alf etc
mircea_popescu: just make a special field "readworthy" in your dns.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: like, the name is signed, or specific piece of content is signed? i assume the former?
mircea_popescu: nah works just like !!rate. currently someone pops in, people !!up him, if he's not obnoxious gets a courtesy rating or two.
mircea_popescu: same thing : people pop a link in, if the site's any good it gets a !!readworthy
Framedragger: ah right.
mircea_popescu: give trinque 's idea a bit of a kick, basically. just because something was mentioned here doesn't automatically mean it's worth reading ; though it IS a sign it exists.
Framedragger: the N-to-1 relation (many possible ratings for one name) needs to be stored somehow, i suppose it may be multiple gns fields, but then it is the case that not *all* fields of a specific name are controlled by the name's owner; or, there's a separate service / storage thing.
mircea_popescu: so that way you can more finely weigh the sites.
trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2015-09-14#1273498 << and it would satisfy this perfectly.
a111: Logged on 2015-09-14 02:02 trinque: I'd rather have the index of the right man's bookshelf than access to every landfill on earth for free
mircea_popescu: quite so
mircea_popescu: Framedragger on contemplation it'd be a "goodreads" root rather than the domain in question.
mircea_popescu: gns is not dns ; it will hold any symbols you realise.
Framedragger: so it'd just be another name
mircea_popescu: so then deedbot could own goodreads and delegate mircea_popescu.goodreads to me.
Framedragger: (btw, current dns does not allow for arbitrary fields the way you think it does; it does have a TXT type of record, but that's not the same; types of records are baked-in in the sense that they have magical IDs to be specified at dns payload header. obvs this cannot stand!)
mircea_popescu: i don't think it does. i just say it should.
Framedragger: yeah, i mean, sounds good.
mircea_popescu: whole piece of shit is a repugnant midden of magic crap
mircea_popescu: that's the thing with magic values : they are secreted by and attract like pheromones the imperial mind.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i'm still not sure about the delegation thing. if A owns goodreads, B should in principle be able to register fuck.goodreads , right? but then allowing for a possibility of delegation would be nice. or, it'd just be a matter of convention *within deedbot's context*.
mircea_popescu: you know what'd happen if women had no legs ? all sidewalks would be covered in slime lines. but do you know what happened once plebs were taught to read ? all fucking code is covered in slime lines.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger right, same difference.
Framedragger: right, convention.
mircea_popescu: technically i suppose the correct way for this to work would be for me to own 6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452 which i do own because hey.
mircea_popescu: then have name record on that = mircea popescu and freenode-nick record = mircea_popescu and blog = trilema.com and goodreads = whatever
mircea_popescu: and so on.
asciilifeform: naggum had some imho interesting detail re 'magic numbers', and how they are not born from empty space, but are gangrenously oozed eternally by pathologically misdesigned systems where operator is FORCED to lie about foreknowledge of field sizes, types, etc.
mircea_popescu: now, the one hold-up here is that we've not yet settled on an universal-fingerprinting-function and we don't like how the koch-rsa fingerprinting works
mircea_popescu: plus we want something to work wth cs too
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and he was right.
mircea_popescu: note how neatly this clasps into the "causes, not purposes" thing, also.
mircea_popescu: it's like being indiana jones, all the meaningless fragments snap together eventually.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i suppose the system could just allow one to own multiple fingerprints, according to different schemes, with some constraints on length ('minimum length' at least)?
mircea_popescu: yes, i see no problem with that.
mircea_popescu: make it take fingerprints as they are for now, and can be extended later.
Framedragger: i guess i could invent a hash function which always outputs some short meaningful names like "CocksCocksBallsCocks" and then claim i have a right to them because that's my fingerprint, but it all boils down to WoT and "don't be ridiculous".
asciilifeform: 'as they are now' is catastrophically braindamaged
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah well.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger i don't follow ?
mircea_popescu: think - currently deedbot administers a very narrow implementation of the gns, whereby if you claim to own X domain, it challenges you and if you pass it gives it to you.
mircea_popescu: same principle.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i'm saying that there's a possible runaway effect where a party could claim to own many a fingerprint, because "their key fingerprinting function is like that", to the point where semantically useful names could be owned by them. but that's just ridiculous..
Framedragger: aha sure
Framedragger: so deedbot or gns would decide on the allowed fingerprinting schemes.
mircea_popescu: pretty much.
mircea_popescu: !!register CocksCocksBallsCocks
deedbot: mircea_popescu is already registered.
trinque: ahahaha
Framedragger: sounds pretty neat!
trinque: oh wait
Framedragger: "something terrible has happened"
mircea_popescu: this ranks way up there in the top 10 machine humour incidents
Framedragger: *mircea_popescu now permanently known as CocksCocksBallsCocks*
mircea_popescu: !~echo the shrieker shrieks
jhvh1: the shrieker shrieks
asciilifeform: btw 'fingerprint' is a enough of a catastrophic retardation that it deserves own thread
mircea_popescu: yeah it'll have to be fixed.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: hence why you invented your own fp scheme for phuctor, right..
mircea_popescu: i dun think anyone seriously proposes it can work.
asciilifeform: Framedragger: phuctor's scheme is sufficient for distinguishing pgp keys with same moduli but variant metafields from one another, and for no other purpose.
Framedragger: right.
mircea_popescu: this problem is harder than you realise, because eg, you don't know what publishing hash(privkey) leaks.
asciilifeform: it is quite inappropriate for battlefield pubkeys.
asciilifeform: why the fuck would you ever hash a privkey
mircea_popescu: because thatg's the only way you're guaranteed to not have the current gpg problem
mircea_popescu: where "something changes" but same hash
asciilifeform: if you must hash something, you hash pubkey
asciilifeform: (rsa pubkeys are one-to-one with privkeys)
mircea_popescu: with a few irrelevant exceptions.
asciilifeform: degenerates
mircea_popescu: i'm not making the argument you should. i'm just pointing out that it is the only way to be 100%.
asciilifeform: but here's my cut of the knot: HASH LOCALLY
mircea_popescu: now, trade-offs that are reasonable can be made etc.
mircea_popescu: well of course locally ? or what do you mean ?
asciilifeform: pubkey hashes are 'for in the harem' and not 'for in the forum'.
mircea_popescu: no i wasn't about to send pubkeys to freeonlinehashes.foryou
asciilifeform: i will carefully work out example:
asciilifeform: tmsrttp://6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452/trilema/foo.html is imho wrong.
asciilifeform: 'key fingerprint' is a broken concept.
mircea_popescu: gns:// plox
asciilifeform: it cannot be fixed.
mircea_popescu: and it'd be gns://trilema.com/
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no argument re it being broken. point is - it exists, and can't be trivially fucked for now, so until replacement is made, can be used.
mircea_popescu: in point of fact - it IS used.
mircea_popescu: all our uses, in deedbot, in voicing model, in wot, in v, all rely on the concept of fp as gns namespace.
asciilifeform: i say to replace it meaningfully, you gotta let go of the fundamental braindamage at the root of it.
asciilifeform: nope. of PUBKEY
asciilifeform: not a proctustization of same.
asciilifeform: *procrust
asciilifeform: do business with PUBKEYS, not FPs.
mircea_popescu: !!rate asciilifeform 1 i tell you it's by fp
asciilifeform: remains -- lame.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you realise, deedbot searched me in its own copy of the gns. by fp.
asciilifeform: and earlier by fleanode nick. because it imported the broken concepts of the empire.
mircea_popescu: found the "pubkey" entry, encrypted to it.
asciilifeform: one of them being - the fp.
asciilifeform: it is promisetronic.
mircea_popescu: yes well, to clean a room you gotta at some point stand on dirty floor.
asciilifeform: global indices of 'memorable' names, or 'safely' shortened rsa pubkeys, are promisetronic.
mircea_popescu: trinque would you be capable to migrate to indexing by pubkey numeric value ?
asciilifeform: the only ~protocolic~ answer is to do business with pubkeys. now you ~can~ shorten them 'in the harem'
mircea_popescu: he does have a point, and i think also the code to allow you to extract it from a pubkey if need be
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu can still key in 'trilema' in his browser. but his nic will spit out entire pubkey.
trinque: mircea_popescu: if this is something I can jam into gpg at each call
mircea_popescu: trinque it'd just be the index, you can keep precomputed field with anything you'd like right next to it.
trinque: or otherwise it calls for homebrew RSA+padding
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'pgpdump' will extract handily.
asciilifeform: from ordinary rfc2440/4880 key.
asciilifeform: ditto phuctor.
trinque: and sure, could easily do this. I was already going to move the pubkey into my db for the www-wot pages
Framedragger: jesus you guys, you realise all those deedbot messages are still internally encrypted with symmetric aes ('session key') right? and you think the lowest-hanging fruit is fingerprint? ok i guess
mircea_popescu: it makes the db slightly larger, but it does solve a fundamental problem.
asciilifeform: btw when 'p' is out i will show folks who want to keep their old moduli, how
asciilifeform: (it isn't hard)
mircea_popescu: Framedragger that's definitely getting replaced.
asciilifeform: Framedragger: they are, and 'p' shoots it in the head.
Framedragger also wonders about pure rsa performance. guess we'll see :)
asciilifeform: Framedragger: most of the time folks spend 'waiting for rsa' in, e.g., gnupg, is spent waiting for the idiot /dev/random
trinque: sometimes people can think of two, even three fruits at a time!
asciilifeform: Framedragger: if you don't believe this, go, profile it, see.
mircea_popescu: moreover not all fruits are blocking ; and some things are just good hygiene at low cost
Framedragger: asciilifeform: i guess i should. yeah fair enough. btw iirc there's still no markable security difference between urandom and random?
mircea_popescu: not on freebsd at any rate.
mircea_popescu: or was it debian.
mircea_popescu: o wait...
asciilifeform: if yer /dev/random is fed by intel crapolade, then also
asciilifeform: or if whitened (is there a linux kernel where it isn't..?)
asciilifeform: or, or.
Framedragger: (ah discard the selection)
Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-23#1572699 << tbh doesn't sound right to me, the :// specifies a transport level protocol - so that i could do http:// or ftp:// or gopher://

Framedragger: no, but the title intrigued me tho (apparently it reads as it sounds), so i've put it through google translate so your beautiful language can be raped and i can nevertheless get the gist..

trinque: shinohai: by now it should be clear that nothing anyone says in that world matters tomorrow
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> i had nfi that it is possible to 'sound fat' << very possible. low testosterone nasal male voice almost guaranteed to come from fatty.
mircea_popescu: fat constricts ballsac and airways.
asciilifeform: did everybody miss last night's 'mr.t kowtows to nyt and disavows 'extremists' etc.' thing ?
mircea_popescu: not what i read there.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-23#1572876 << btw this does not always work. worked for, e.g., su 1941-45, but not, say germany, in same. or, say, britain ww1. the latter two -- culled the wrong 8.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-23 21:47 ben_vulpes: 'have a war, kill off 8/10'?
mircea_popescu: easier for su, any 8/10 just as good.
asciilifeform: it wasn't 'any' tho
asciilifeform: paradoxically, getting invaded and decimated -- is pretty good for 'you' (as biomaterial)
asciilifeform: it is the 'just wanteds' who get nailed, slightly preferentially.
ben_vulpes: better chances than thumbing ass and praying
asciilifeform: 'pray for asteroid' -- orlol
ben_vulpes: nyt transcript is pretty amusing. friendman's butthurt leaking all over the page.
mircea_popescu: "SULZBERGER: I thought maybe I’d start this off by asking if you have anything you would like to start this off with before we move to" aaaaand i lost interest.
mircea_popescu: fucktards are utterly unreadable by now, i'd rather peruse byzantine court poetry cca comnena.
ben_vulpes: what /did/ you read on the 'kowtowing'?
mircea_popescu: ~nothing tbh. did i miss out much ?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes if you mean alf's q, the snippet in the logs yest, "oh, these ppl doing the nazi salute should stop"
ben_vulpes: yeah that
mircea_popescu: wasn't aware this is particularly controversial.
ben_vulpes: just trying to weave these threads of conversation into some bizarro fabric over here
asciilifeform: sparing clitler is no longer 'controversial' ?
asciilifeform: or 'keeping open mind' on 'climate change' treaty
asciilifeform: or reconsidering THE WALL
asciilifeform: or, or.
asciilifeform: '“I don’t want to energize the group. I’m not looking to energize them. I don’t want to energize the group, and I disavow the group,” Trump said ...'
trinque: the guy went to pedo island just like bill
trinque: CIA/NSA probably already neutered him a while ago
asciilifeform: trinque: are you familiar with zhirinovsky ?
trinque: I am not.
asciilifeform: ru version of mr.t. 'created' in '91 when kpss decided to permit 'the first second political party'
asciilifeform: but never quite went out of business, continues on as a kind of rush limbaugh
asciilifeform: 'lightning rod', if you will.
trinque: aha, sounds just like it.
asciilifeform: the spencer d00d is a product of same machine
asciilifeform: a walking zero, with 0 ideas, no oratory ability, etc. but with audience and zog media exposure because ~selected~ to work as flytrap.
shinohai: !!up Dog1
deedbot: Dog1 voiced for 30 minutes.
Dog1: So this this many member you would think there would be some type of conversation going on.
trinque: we were waiting for you to get here.
shinohai: You just caught the tail ... http://btcbase.org/logs/ if you wanna catch up
asciilifeform: now where's Dog2.
asciilifeform: cannot work without 2,3,4.
asciilifeform: sled -- needs 4.
Dog3: I am Doge
Framedragger: in soviet russia, the dog make redundant *you*
trinque: Dog3: I didn't vote for you
Dog1: well I have been called swinehawg (spelling in german not there ) LOL
mircea_popescu: god damned this black mirror shit is unwatchable. where the fuck do they find these dumb bitchez that can't act to save their life, it's like they're not even b list. netflix has invented the c-list. and who the fuck writes this inane crap, it's like they're trying for a reboot of the venerable twilight zone / tales from the crypt, except failing to reach that high.
Dog1: and the rest of the pack will be around in time
mircea_popescu: holy shit netflix is worse than mtv.
ben_vulpes: trinque: oblig mug i grew up drinking out of http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/bLsAAOSw1vlUubcb/s-l1600.jpg
shinohai: I watched the Narcos show on Netflix ... was kinda tolerable
Dog1: got me
trinque: ben_vulpes: heh, I was making a roundabout monty python reference
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i meant specifically the "naxi salute ppl are ridoinculous" bit ; re the "sparing hillary" thing the official excuse is http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-22#1572221
a111: Logged on 2016-11-22 16:46 mircea_popescu: hey, he;s not sworn in yet. if he is or if he isn't gonna jail the shrew, he'd still say he isn't.
Dog1: Once again shinohai are you done with that universal translator yet
trinque: someone might've told him he's supposed to maintain the pretense of justice dept independence
shinohai: Dog1: jhvh1 has google translate
mircea_popescu: anyway, i'm not entirely sure what the argument is, so i dunno.
asciilifeform: argument is that this movie is a rerun of jimmy carter election, where the man promised to 'show the aliens', or obummer, who promised 'legalize dope', etc.
mircea_popescu: well it is a us election thingee.
Dog1: Pick the worst of two evils
mircea_popescu: the dispute around that event centers on "alf : he can't win mp: lol of course he will", ain't gonna transmute into an "alf:dun matter that he won".
asciilifeform: each d00d sits down at the blinkenlights panel and starts playing with knobs, and notices that they are mostly not connected to anything; and the ones that are, if he starts twiddling, Nice Polite Folx show up and gently tell him that he must stop, or There Will Be Problems.
mircea_popescu: of course it dun matter, it's a broken ikea replica of an engine.
Dog1: Alf likes Cats
mircea_popescu: Dog1 who are you again ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: seems like we agree on that one
Dog1: just a traveller
asciilifeform: lemme guess, vex is back
mircea_popescu: !!down Dog1
mircea_popescu: come back as a useful something.
asciilifeform assumed that it was trinque's drinking mate or such
mircea_popescu: was it ?
shinohai: Eulorian
trinque: I never heard of him
mircea_popescu: not in #eulora ?
mircea_popescu: trinque that's kinda the thing, everyone tends to assume such things because why risk offending friend of lord.
mircea_popescu: prolly should be standing policy to actually announce such situations.
trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-23#1572942 << I guess this wasn't dry enough, lol

trinque: I'm loath to use people's APIs for things when I dun gotta
trinque: looks like there's a geoip pyturd

Framedragger: though*
