AlfredAlfer: https://www.bitchute.com/video/YCbQhfPrajo4/ [00:01]
danielpbarron: hi, Emily? [00:01]
AlfredAlfer: yeh [00:06]
danielpbarron: cool [00:06]
AlfredAlfer: How are you this fine evening [00:06]
danielpbarron: tired but otherwise well [00:09]
danielpbarron: how have you been taking the twitter ban [00:10]
AlfredAlfer: oh better than ever [00:10]
AlfredAlfer: I'm glad I'm free of the ironybros [00:10]
AlfredAlfer: nice to be on Gab [00:10]
danielpbarron: what is gab? [00:10]
AlfredAlfer: fwaa it's the free speech twitter. You can say whatever you want and they won't ban you. [00:11]
AlfredAlfer: https://gab.ai/realemilyyoucis [00:11]
danielpbarron: ya but i mostly use twitter to troll the people who would never use a gab [00:11]
danielpbarron: otherwise i blog on my own site [00:12]
* BingoBoingo thought nick was a joke on alfname [00:13]
AlfredAlfer: twitter was fun while it lasted but gab weeds out the bullshit [00:14]
AlfredAlfer: you can't even really troll anyone without getting banned [00:14]
AlfredAlfer: for me what did me in was a fat joke [00:14]
danielpbarron: a very funny joke at that. great way to go out [00:15]
BingoBoingo: Eh, the best fat jokes are the fats themselves. Hamplanets thinking they are people. Oink Oink motherfuckers [00:16]
BingoBoingo: Here's another fat joke: acanthosis nigricans [00:19]
danielpbarron: AlfredAlfer, if you were to host your own blog, your banworthy stuff can get posted by other people who read it, and on whichever social media is fashionable at the time [00:20]
AlfredAlfer: well they still could shut down my blog. They're making big leap now. It all started with Anglin's fat joke [00:20]
danielpbarron: shut diwn how? [00:21]
AlfredAlfer: The end of net neutrality is here and they're doing it all under the guise of 'stopping white supremacy' [00:21]
AlfredAlfer: they're sneaking it up under us because of Anglin's fat joke [00:21]
AlfredAlfer: first the Daily stormer, then the rest. [00:21]
danielpbarron: if they could shut sites down, there wouldn't be a trilema [00:22]
BingoBoingo: Eh, they are going to fail BECAUSE of white supremacy [00:22]
AlfredAlfer: You don't know how they're forcing the DS to literally be wiped off the face of the internet? They've gone to several domains, all have been shut down. Even tor is blocking their traffec [00:22]
AlfredAlfer: they should be doing these kinds of measures to pedophiles [00:22]
danielpbarron: tor is a USG honeypot [00:22]
danielpbarron: !#s tor [00:23]
a111: 1060 results for "tor", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=tor [00:23]
AlfredAlfer: has trilema reached their radar? [00:24]
AlfredAlfer: Trilema's decentralized though, right? [00:24]
danielpbarron: i don't know mircea_popescu's hosting arrangement [00:25]
danielpbarron: if you mean the blog that is. this channel is just a freenode channel. but we could make our own irc server if they ever bothered to knock this one off [00:26]
trinque: ohey, little bit of racis to balance out the calitard today? [00:26]
trinque: welcome AlfredAlfer [00:27]

AlfredAlfer: no I don't have an RSA key. What is it? [00:34]
asciilifeform: trinque: where's the trilema where he promised to lingchi usg operatives on camera if catches one ? [00:34]
AlfredAlfer: Oh thank you for posting my cartoon, +a111 [00:35]
trinque: that's actually a bot reciting a link to the logs [00:36]
danielpbarron: AlfredAlfer, it's kinda like a bitcoin address in that it has a private/public key, and we use it to send secret messages and identify ourselves [00:36]
AlfredAlfer: I'm glad you like it : ) [00:36]
asciilifeform: AlfredAlfer: a111 is a robot [00:36]
AlfredAlfer: fff [00:36]
AlfredAlfer: forgive me [00:36]
AlfredAlfer: lol [00:36]
asciilifeform: AlfredAlfer: observe, when and why it speaks [00:36]
AlfredAlfer: ok [00:37]
asciilifeform: AlfredAlfer: rsa is the weapon against which, when used correctly, they've no defense. [00:38]
AlfredAlfer: Cool so they can't take it down no matter what? It can be the new free internet? [00:39]
asciilifeform: the buggers spent moar on preventing you knowing about it, or how to use, than on battleships. [00:39]
AlfredAlfer: holy shite [00:40]
AlfredAlfer: that's lovely to hear. Very comforting. [00:40]
AlfredAlfer: Yes, we need to forge a new Wild Wild West of internet. The old one is used and bugged and fucked worse than an old whore. [00:40]
asciilifeform: AlfredAlfer: be sure to come back when mircea_popescu wakes up. [00:40]
AlfredAlfer: heehee wut's his time zone? [00:41]
asciilifeform: mars, approx. [00:41]
AlfredAlfer: lolol [00:41]
asciilifeform: srsly he has no fixed time. ( just as i do not ) [00:41]
asciilifeform: stay around for a day or so and you'll meet. [00:42]
AlfredAlfer: yea that's galaxy brain operation [00:42]
AlfredAlfer: okey [00:43]
* asciilifeform bbl [00:43]
trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-01#1708277 << right solution to this is called gossipd, one of the items in the works. [00:44]
a111: Logged on 2017-09-01 04:11 AlfredAlfer: fwaa it's the free speech twitter. You can say whatever you want and they won't ban you. [00:44]
trinque: !#s gossipd [00:44]
a111: 706 results for "gossipd", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=gossipd [00:44]
trinque: there's a very long, ongoing thread on its specific design, but it builds upon the RSA cryptography asciilifeform mentioned. [00:45]
AlfredAlfer: ahh yes gossipd [00:46]
AlfredAlfer: so no matter what, people can gather and message there? Is it encrypted enough that google and shit can't read it? Or is it all public? [00:46]
trinque: it is designed to not be a specific "there" at all, to any particular, singular public. information is routed along your trusted relationships, and is as good as your connections. like life. [00:47]
trinque: easier to understand if one first understands the web of trust [00:47]
asciilifeform: AlfredAlfer: consider how the proverbial 'terrorist cell' works. [00:50]
trinque: http://trilema.com/2014/what-the-wot-is-for-how-it-works-and-how-to-use-it/ [00:50]
trinque: ^ obviously this is mircea_popescu's blog, not mine. [00:50]
AlfredAlfer: Ah I see thank you for the article [00:50]
asciilifeform: no cell knows about any others but its immediate neighbors. [00:50]
AlfredAlfer: mmhmm [00:51]
asciilifeform: AlfredAlfer: so let's say you want to read , e.g., der sturmer. your let a friend's box know. the friend's -- yet again same, asks others. then ds box eventually reached, and passes text back up the chain to you. [00:55]
asciilifeform: this is a gross oversimplification but must suffice for now. [00:55]
asciilifeform: rsa is the insecticide against snoops on the wires, and likewise against enemy agents monkeying with the messages en route or impersonating source. [00:57]
trinque: pulling from the other end, ds et al are using the technology a bunch of califag pantsuits made, and expecting it to work for other than pantsuit. [00:58]
AlfredAlfer: Ah I see it's like a very direct transfer.. like a hall of mirrors [00:59]
AlfredAlfer: hahhaha [00:59]
AlfredAlfer: yes I must let them know there are other ways [00:59]
AlfredAlfer: That's very excellent [01:00]
AlfredAlfer: so they can try and try to cut them off, cut transfers, block traffic, but it's impossible [01:00]
asciilifeform: brief likbez re tor : http://trilema.com/2013/dear-guardian-stop-being-retarded/ [01:01]

trinque: who had an intro to gpg [01:03]
trinque: danielpbarron: ? [01:03]
danielpbarron: i think it was on the old wiki [01:03]
trinque: looks like eulora dox are pretty good on the subj [01:04]
danielpbarron: http://www.eulorum.org/Account_Setup [01:05]
trinque: AlfredAlfer: there is a voice mechanism here run by my trusty deedbot. [01:05]
AlfredAlfer: whah like you can speak? [01:05]
trinque: yep, you saw folks using !!up to grant you voice [01:05]
trinque: if you are registered and rated, you'll be able to self-voice [01:06]
AlfredAlfer: hahahah, that's the most complicated account setup I've ever seen ) [01:06]
AlfredAlfer: Will be well worth it once the big crackdown really happens [01:07]
trinque: takes some diligence to have a name that's yours, rather than one some twatter can steal. [01:07]
AlfredAlfer: It will probably take me a day to fully absorb it [01:07]
trinque: but, worth immensely more [01:07]
AlfredAlfer: I have a bitcoin guy I talk to often who will help me understand it. [01:08]
AlfredAlfer: i'll just use my real name I guess [01:08]
AlfredAlfer: still, *they* will be able to incriminate us for anything we've ever said one day [01:09]
AlfredAlfer: say you're completely anonymous, don't use your real name, like I assume all you guys do.. is it easy for them to tie what you've said onto your actual person? [01:10]
danielpbarron: depends how you do it [01:10]
danielpbarron: but most things aren't worth saying anonymously [01:11]
trinque: http://deedbot.org/bundle-382703.txt << yes [01:11]
trinque: ^ mircea_popescu wrote this. I and most (all?) others here worth a damn signed in blood. [01:12]
trinque: specifically, signed with our cryptographic keys. [01:13]
AlfredAlfer: wow [01:13]
mircea_popescu: heh now we got an alf and an' alfalfer ? [01:14]
AlfredAlfer: lol yes I suppose so [01:14]
AlfredAlfer: Hello, it is very nice to meet you +mircea_popescu [01:16]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer so are you http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/EmilyYoucis is the idea ? [01:16]
AlfredAlfer: huehue [01:16]
AlfredAlfer: myep. It's an old article tho [01:17]
mircea_popescu: anyway, as to the direct concern -- it is actually impossible to take down sites, as far as the empire of stupid is concerned. [01:17]
mircea_popescu: the examples you give are remarkably poorly managed. specifically re dailystormer, http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-30#1706830 [01:18]
a111: Logged on 2017-08-30 23:21 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-30#1706799 << or anywhere else. it's purely dead. [01:18]
mircea_popescu: they have nfi what they're doing, and so no, it doesn't take much to take them offline. [01:19]
AlfredAlfer: oh shite [01:19]
AlfredAlfer: Weev runs pretty much the whole thing [01:19]
mircea_popescu: now, on to more interesting matters, are you going to do a crazy republican cartoon series ? [01:19]
AlfredAlfer: are you saying if I can relay him some tips he'd have an easier time keeping it up? [01:19]
AlfredAlfer: Well I'm working on a new toon now, a commission actually [01:20]
AlfredAlfer: being paid in BTC [01:20]
mircea_popescu: nice. [01:20]
mircea_popescu: where do you publish shit, outside of the walled gardens i mean ? [01:20]
mircea_popescu: hola cazalla [01:20]
AlfredAlfer: I've been traveling the globe ever since I got uprooted and haven't done a solid animation since the Ascent of Alfred [01:20]
AlfredAlfer: but I'm settled now [01:21]
AlfredAlfer: Usually youtube, the basic shit. Though I just got a bitchute today since my yt is going to be removed shortly [01:21]
cazalla: mircea_popescu, heya [01:21]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer well not getting shitty vps'en on obscure shithosts would help also not getting them one at a time and also not using fucking domain names. behold : http://91.218.246.33/ [01:21]
cazalla: BingoBoingo, np re: email [01:21]
cazalla: AlfredAlfer, finally in the right place eh? [01:21]
mircea_popescu: the fact that works and his shit didn't already is an indication of incompetence. [01:21]
AlfredAlfer: Ooshh [01:22]
AlfredAlfer: Weev works tirelessly, but I suppose he has no idea about the tricks available. [01:22]
AlfredAlfer: I was hanging out with him recently [01:22]
mircea_popescu: http://91.218.246.33/2017/beating-that-spark-of-heaven/ << and i don't mean just the root, either. [01:23]
AlfredAlfer: If it's a numerical domain like the one you posted, can the masses still find it, though? [01:23]
mircea_popescu: why not ? you found it... [01:23]
AlfredAlfer: haha [01:23]
AlfredAlfer: yea if it got around like that. A big part of the site's' success is just random passerbyers happing upon it though [01:23]
mircea_popescu: the masses ALSO can find it by editing /etc/hosts and putting whatever number they want. [01:23]
AlfredAlfer: I guess the numerical way is easier to access than having everyone download the onion tho [01:24]
mircea_popescu: like in the case yest, all they needed was local resolution and it'd have worked (which is how i got the paste of his page even when people "Couldn't reach it") [01:24]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer absolutely lol. seeing how it's how the internet works in the first place. [01:24]
AlfredAlfer: oh shite [01:24]
AlfredAlfer: hahaa [01:24]
AlfredAlfer: Can you send the paste? [01:24]
mircea_popescu: the whole dns bullshit is just "convenience" built on top of the system, which then conveniently allows the pantsuits to play tricks like these, and idiots to believe in pantsuit power. [01:25]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-30#1706839 [01:25]

mircea_popescu: (all links in channel are also auto-archived, if the pastes expire) [01:25]
mircea_popescu: just look it up on archive.is [01:25]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform recall that thing with the dog ? [01:26]
AlfredAlfer: I see I see. [01:27]
AlfredAlfer: yes, he needs to use a whole new set of rules [01:27]
AlfredAlfer: and the 'deleting' of the websites is just smoke and mirrors, huh? [01:27]
mircea_popescu: yes. [01:27]
mircea_popescu: works against the stupid poor and them only. [01:28]
AlfredAlfer: How many people realistically know about this system right now? [01:28]
AlfredAlfer: It's gotta be an extremely small percentage of the population, no? [01:28]
mircea_popescu: i expect, yes. [01:28]
mircea_popescu: then again, how many people know how a fridge works ? [01:29]
trinque: this isn't even the gossipd thing I brought up. it's what your computer already does. [01:29]
mircea_popescu: about same % [01:29]
AlfredAlfer: you're right [01:29]
AlfredAlfer: I guess you're then planning to make the system as common as a fridge, correct? [01:29]
trinque: tits.xxx -> dear mother government, where are the tits? -> 6.6.6.6 [01:29]
mircea_popescu: it already is as common. all computers work this way, and always have. [01:29]
AlfredAlfer: ahh. So *they* are just using one outdated dinosaur form of what could be and telling us that's all there is? [01:30]
mircea_popescu: yes. [01:30]
mircea_popescu: trinque incidentally i like this one a lot better than the other one. [01:30]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer how much does your comissioned cartoon pay btw ? [01:31]
AlfredAlfer: Yea you just gotta snazz it up a bit, add some clickbait and emoticons ) [01:31]
AlfredAlfer: Well I use the standard animator's rate [01:31]
mircea_popescu: i dunno what that is. [01:31]
AlfredAlfer: I secured the commission back when btc was at around 1200 [01:31]
AlfredAlfer: And since he's paying me in btc only, well, I'm getting a hell of a lot more than originally bargained [01:31]
mircea_popescu: so how much is that ? [01:32]
mircea_popescu: !!up AlfredAlfer [01:32]
deedbot: AlfredAlfer voiced for 30 minutes. [01:32]
AlfredAlfer: Well standard animator's rates is a grand per minute of framebyframe 24 fps animation [01:32]
AlfredAlfer: It's not even that standard... that's kind of a lowball, but that's what I use [01:32]
mircea_popescu: !~calc 1000 / 24 / 60 [01:32]
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: 1000 / 24 / 60 = 0.6944444444444444 [01:32]
mircea_popescu: so 70 cents a frame ? [01:32]
AlfredAlfer: These guys getting hired by google and other shit can charge way more for crap animations lol [01:32]
AlfredAlfer: oh wow when you put it like that that kinda sucks hahaha [01:32]
mircea_popescu: are you bashful AlfredAlfer ? [01:33]
AlfredAlfer: well since I secured this one when btc was about a 4th what it is now, I'm getting a bit more than 70 cents per frame [01:33]
AlfredAlfer: yea I can be a bit bashful teehee [01:33]
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2014/ill-pay-for-your-tits/ << might be worth considering. [01:33]
mircea_popescu: 2 bitcents is like 90 dollars or what is it now, for a frame. [01:33]
AlfredAlfer: hahahaha [01:34]
AlfredAlfer: wow fancy that. A frame I don't even have to draw. [01:34]
mircea_popescu: ikr? [01:34]
AlfredAlfer: Sounds like a bargain. You get any takers yet? [01:34]
mircea_popescu: well see all those pics there ? lol [01:34]
AlfredAlfer: ahh those are real ones [01:36]
mircea_popescu: sure. you can even follow the log links to where they happened. [01:36]
AlfredAlfer: seem like the bargain bin runna the mill sluts [01:36]
AlfredAlfer: tho I suppose they all are [01:36]
mircea_popescu: why so negative, there's liek so's of the lordship beaming there, not to mention various other well respected ladies. [01:37]
AlfredAlfer: which ones are the pros [01:37]

AlfredAlfer: I see you have done your research [01:40]

mircea_popescu: it's been an ongoing thing since bitcoin. keeps evolving though. [01:47]
AlfredAlfer: mmm. Yes, with the combo of information and currency out of their hands, we will be unstoppable :D [01:48]
mircea_popescu: precisely. [01:48]
AlfredAlfer: But what if they destroy every physical computer in the world [01:48]
mircea_popescu: heh. [01:48]
AlfredAlfer: or like 90 percent of computers. [01:49]
mircea_popescu: they can't make a boat. let's not get ahead of ourselves. [01:49]

AlfredAlfer: The National Policy Institute. It's the whole richard spencer thing. Tila Tequila was there. Not the greatest optics but it was fun. [01:51]
AlfredAlfer: Twas. [01:51]
AlfredAlfer: oh yea that's one of my favorite articles LOL [01:52]
mircea_popescu: tila tequila ? was this the mexican britney spears or somesuch ? [01:52]
AlfredAlfer: i)) of course! [01:52]
AlfredAlfer: hahahha mexican britney spears [01:52]
trinque: antifa tried to fart around near our sam houston statue recently, bunch of folks showed up with assault rifles and they went off to shitpost elsewhere. [01:52]
AlfredAlfer: no it's the asian nazi mk ultra victim chick [01:52]
mircea_popescu: you'll have to excuse me, i have all the social media hip edge of a 90yo. [01:52]
AlfredAlfer: no worries it seems you're occupying your brain with much more important things [01:53]
AlfredAlfer: oh yes, you can shoot people in texas for defacing a statue, right? Good ol' texas. [01:53]
trinque: then we threw a hurricane to wash ourselves of their stench [01:53]
mircea_popescu: trinque you'll appreciate this : costa rica is a stronghold state. [01:53]
mircea_popescu: "priviledged self defense" they call it. [01:53]
trinque: "stand your ground" ? yeah [01:53]
AlfredAlfer: hahhaahha [01:53]
AlfredAlfer: well atleast the hurricane did one good thing [01:54]
mircea_popescu: but basically, breaking and entering ~= your life's forfeit. [01:54]
AlfredAlfer: Do you live in USA, mircea? [01:54]
trinque: can't see the sanity in anything else [01:54]
cazalla: AlfredAlfer, no-one shoots anyone, they're all a bunch of Cantwells in that they come armed to the gills but never a single shot is fired, just larping at best [01:54]
mircea_popescu: no, i live in costa rica. [01:54]
AlfredAlfer: Well cantwell never should've had the gun [01:55]
mircea_popescu: cazalla they had that guy in the tower! [01:55]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer why, you wanna visit ? [01:55]
AlfredAlfer: But I wouldn't consider it larping. Helmets and shields are necessary when you're getting acid thrown in your eyes. [01:55]
AlfredAlfer: Well I've never been to the islands [01:55]
mircea_popescu: costa rica is... not an island. [01:56]
AlfredAlfer: whoops [01:56]
trinque: was I larping when I sent some dindus away from my door couple months ago? [01:56]
trinque: had they stepped in, yes, would've shot [01:56]
AlfredAlfer: Wait a minute.. in MY universe Costa Rica was an island [01:56]
AlfredAlfer: I want my old universe back !!! [01:56]
mircea_popescu: trinque he's just bitter cuz he didn't get to shoot anyone. [01:56]
AlfredAlfer: (ME joke) [01:56]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer sorry, it's a little bit of central america. [01:56]
AlfredAlfer: ok well it's tropical [01:56]
AlfredAlfer: how are the bugs [01:57]
mircea_popescu: yes. fulla jungle. and in fact where the spanyards first landed. [01:57]
mircea_popescu: no relation to puerto rico, which is an island. [01:57]
AlfredAlfer: lol [01:57]
mircea_popescu: was hhhhhenifer lopez from there btw ? iirc. [01:57]
cazalla: trinque, sure, but i'm talking about the Cantwell types who go to a march, stand there while they get shit, piss and acid thrown on them but don't even fire upon them, why bother even showing up then? just to larp [01:58]
AlfredAlfer: I thought she was from the block [01:58]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer http://trilema.com/2017/arachnofobia-inductor/ or http://trilema.com/2017/did-you-ever-claim-to-have-butterflies-in-your-stomach/ take your pick. [01:58]
AlfredAlfer: why would you fire upon someone and ruin your life forever [01:58]
mircea_popescu: so they bleed. [01:58]
AlfredAlfer: People should be able to stand places without getting piss and shit thrown on them [01:59]
trinque: well... aren't you playing "down with usg except for the bill of rights really we just mean usg but we want christmas back" [01:59]
mircea_popescu: man those spider macros are something else. [02:00]
trinque: I cringe every time I hear the altright try to use "freedome of speech" and so on [02:00]
AlfredAlfer: I'll take the big spider over the shitmoth [02:00]
mircea_popescu: it's a butterfly. and they all do it. [02:00]
trinque: cazalla: can't argue with it same exact notion re: raising awareness, for sure. [02:01]
mircea_popescu: oh, and of course, forgot fna! http://trilema.com/2017/the-life-and-times-of-fna/ [02:01]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer you ever seen a gekko ? [02:01]
mircea_popescu: !!up AlfredAlfer [02:02]
deedbot: AlfredAlfer voiced for 30 minutes. [02:02]
AlfredAlfer: that's a swell lil guy [02:02]
AlfredAlfer: no not in real life [02:02]
mircea_popescu: they're overpoweringly cutr. [02:02]
mircea_popescu: cute* [02:02]
AlfredAlfer: you're lucky you have so many tropical friends [02:03]
mircea_popescu: it's skill. [02:03]
AlfredAlfer: OOh my clockwork orange torrent has finished downloading [02:04]
mircea_popescu: o btw, whadda ya think of my cartoon header ? [02:04]
mircea_popescu: inb4 "it sucks, too much white space" [02:04]
AlfredAlfer: Oh it's very nice. Who is the artist? [02:04]
mircea_popescu: romanian girl, linked somewhere. [02:04]
mircea_popescu: lessee [02:05]
AlfredAlfer: speaking of clockwork orange I released a new song today https://www.bitchute.com/video/YCbQhfPrajo4/ [02:05]
mircea_popescu: won't play for me / [02:06]
AlfredAlfer: F [02:06]
mircea_popescu: say, do you do poem readings ? [02:06]
AlfredAlfer: hmm it's playing for me, others have listened [02:06]
AlfredAlfer: what do you think of bitchute? Is it impenetrable? [02:07]
mircea_popescu: well, i think it sucks, because i can't play their content. [02:07]
AlfredAlfer: why can't you? [02:07]
AlfredAlfer: you can't get to any vid or just this one? [02:08]
mircea_popescu: because it's a layered shitcake of bs formats and crap. what was the original item, an ogg ? mp3 ? what ? [02:08]
AlfredAlfer: h264 [02:08]
AlfredAlfer: hmm. lol layered shitcake. [02:08]
mircea_popescu: so mpeg4. why not you know, just have a simple link, http:/eyoucis.fuckyou/this-song.mpeg ? [02:08]
AlfredAlfer: But is it impenetrable nonetheless? It's decentralized [02:09]
mircea_popescu: wtf is "decentralized" even mean, it's a website. [02:09]
AlfredAlfer: that won [02:09]
AlfredAlfer: link won't work [02:09]
AlfredAlfer: well , I still have much to learn with all these definitions [02:09]
trinque: looks like they bolted it to bittorrent some way [02:09]
AlfredAlfer: The only thing I've seen before that I thought would be an alternate internet was maidsafe, but it doesn't seem to be making any moves [02:09]
mircea_popescu: and by the looks of it, it's made by trhe same spammers from advance publications that onw all the rest of the pointless "segmented" spamsites. from vice to women-shoes-in-michigan.com [02:10]
cazalla: i'm off, parental stuff.. AlfredAlfer, i'd encourage you to spend more time here and/or reading logs, you will find actual solutions here, altright is lulzfest but even that has died down now due to taking themselves super 1488 seriously [02:11]
mircea_popescu: "terms". here's a pro tip AlfredAlfer : if a website has "terms" it's shit. [02:11]
danielpbarron: i met one of the maidsafe "coders" , told her about this place, never joined [02:12]

trinque: cya caz [02:12]
mircea_popescu: trinque check their lulz dns announcement btw. round robin of same ips. [02:12]
AlfredAlfer: yes, I look forward to learning all about this [02:12]
AlfredAlfer: oh no, >coder >her [02:12]
mircea_popescu: anyway. no, i don't expect it's "impenetrable" in any sense. [02:13]
trinque: look mother, am cyberpunk [02:13]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer are you poor ? [02:13]
danielpbarron: hey some of the best are women. see: eulora [02:13]
trinque: for the same milage you could stick a torrent on your own site and seed, if you want people to help you with bandwidth [02:13]
mircea_popescu: ^ [02:13]
mircea_popescu: much more impenetrable. [02:13]
AlfredAlfer: Am I poor? Well that's all relative, haha. [02:14]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer the correct solution here is to pay 1-200 per month for a dedicated server in a sane jurisdiction (ie, outside of nato). make sure you get a chunk of ips with it, then host all your shit. [02:14]
AlfredAlfer: Why the fuck isn't the stormer doing that [02:14]
AlfredAlfer: they get more than enough money [02:14]
mircea_popescu: unless you're poor, this is the minimum bar of what you do. you pay rent for a house irl, and a smaller rent for a house on the net. [02:15]
mircea_popescu: because they've no clue. [02:15]
AlfredAlfer: you're saying you can buy your own individual server outside of nato? [02:15]
mircea_popescu: yes. [02:15]
AlfredAlfer: wtf [02:15]
mircea_popescu: and once you have that, and especially if you're present here, you are indeed impenetrable, because people will help. [02:15]
AlfredAlfer: how do they not know this. I mean I'm technologically incompetent but weev should know that [02:15]
mircea_popescu: such as with archival/disemination/elasticization and other such topics. [02:15]
AlfredAlfer: when you say help do you mean with security? [02:16]
mircea_popescu: many people don't know many things that they should know. it's kinda what nato even means by now, "you have this but not that ?!?!" [02:16]
mircea_popescu: for instance. [02:16]
AlfredAlfer: yea I guess most of it's hidden in plain site [02:16]
AlfredAlfer: well I know for a fact the stormer gets way more than that much money per month [02:16]
trinque: in usd, I'm sure. and they want to go spend that at the mall. [02:17]
AlfredAlfer: I thought *they* could access anything they pleased.. find their way into any server.. but indeed, there are ones they cannot access [02:17]
mircea_popescu: consider : when i put http://trilema.com/2017/the-life-and-times-of-fna/ in the log earlier, the bot archived it, so now it's at http://archive.is/L1Up3 [02:17]
mircea_popescu: this happens automatically, because we said so at some point. similar measures can be taken to further expand defenses indefinitely. [02:17]
AlfredAlfer: I see [02:18]
AlfredAlfer: but isn't the archive also located on the same server? [02:18]
mircea_popescu: nope. [02:18]
mircea_popescu: and there's also private archives and all sorts of things. [02:18]
AlfredAlfer: where is it? somewhere else they can access tho, right? [02:18]
mircea_popescu: the republic is vast and far reaching. [02:18]
AlfredAlfer: mmm. I bet the pantsuits are stuck in 3 cyberspace dimensions, meanwhile you guys are on like 6 [02:19]
mircea_popescu: all i got to say to that being http://trilema.com/2016/to-be-clear-hillary-clinton-lost-the-presidential-election-on-june-16th-2016/ [02:19]
AlfredAlfer: LOlolOl [02:19]
AlfredAlfer: well that's quite comforting [02:19]
mircea_popescu: now do me a favour and make yourself a rsa key. [02:20]
AlfredAlfer: I shall. It's pretty late over here, but I have all of the articles and info you guys sent me open in tabs that will open up as soon as I wake up tomorrow. [02:20]
mircea_popescu: cool. [02:21]
AlfredAlfer: I need a fresh brain and a helping hand to do these keys [02:21]
AlfredAlfer: I'm very excited to learn more [02:21]
mircea_popescu: peeps'll help. [02:21]
AlfredAlfer: : ) [02:21]
mircea_popescu: ah, i dun recall what you said, do you read poems ? [02:21]
AlfredAlfer: Oh - I can, I can read anything. I'm very good at vocal expressions. [02:22]
AlfredAlfer: Have a decent mic too. [02:22]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer http://trilema.com/2015/stop-all-the-clocks-again/ << this is looking for expressing. [02:23]
AlfredAlfer: that's a good one [02:25]
AlfredAlfer: I could certainly do it [02:25]
mircea_popescu: aite, what's keeping you ? [02:27]
* trinque to bed, night all [02:27]
mod6: ni ni [02:27]
mircea_popescu: peace. [02:27]
AlfredAlfer: Well I'll do it if you want me to! [02:28]
AlfredAlfer: I only ask for one favor in return [02:28]
mircea_popescu: shoot [02:28]
AlfredAlfer: Could you give me instructions on how the DS can get an impenetrable domain, through your services or others, that I can relay to weev? [02:29]
mircea_popescu: well he could just come here and im sure we'll set him up. [02:29]
AlfredAlfer: ooo [02:29]
mircea_popescu: iirc danielpbarron was trying to arrange something in that vein a few days ago but he never showed. [02:29]
AlfredAlfer: Okay, I'll tell him. Oh yes, Dan was the one that got me here. Well I talk to weev regularly so I should be able to coax him [02:30]
danielpbarron: no that was her [02:30]
mircea_popescu: oh oh. [02:30]
AlfredAlfer: Oohhh [02:30]
AlfredAlfer: no worries, I'll ask him myself. [02:30]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer it's not like it's hard or something. have him drop by, it'll get sorted out. [02:30]
mircea_popescu: provided he doesn't go "fuck! why didn't i think of that!" when you show him the convo. [02:31]
AlfredAlfer: Cool. [02:31]
AlfredAlfer: HAhahha. I did screenshot some of the solutions you wrote, if you didn't mind. [02:31]
mircea_popescu: you can just link to the log, like i do. [02:31]
mircea_popescu: there's 3 differenty log websites to choose from. [02:31]
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/ http://logs.bvulpes.com/trilema http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/today [02:31]
AlfredAlfer: Oh okay. This whole chat is stored forever in the vaults? [02:32]
mircea_popescu: yes. [02:32]
AlfredAlfer: coool [02:32]
AlfredAlfer: Oh Happy September btw [02:32]
mircea_popescu: lol [02:32]
mircea_popescu: !!up AlfredAlfer [02:32]
deedbot: AlfredAlfer voiced for 30 minutes. [02:32]
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron consider how close you came to seeing her topless, too! [02:32]
AlfredAlfer: 'twill forever be a mystery [02:33]
AlfredAlfer: unless you seriously up the antee on that .08 btc ) [02:33]
mod6: haha [02:33]
AlfredAlfer: but no i'm just kidding. I wouldn't do it anyway. [02:33]
mircea_popescu: wait, what 0.08 ?! [02:33]
AlfredAlfer: oh I forget what percentage it was [02:34]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer why not ? what, it's shameful to have tits or something ? [02:34]
mircea_popescu: AlfredAlfer it's 0.02. two bitcents. see ? so you can say "here's my two... bitcents". [02:34]
AlfredAlfer: Lol i told you that would be a bomb the internet would not soon forget. [02:34]
AlfredAlfer: Lol [02:34]
mircea_popescu: they forgot boxxy... [02:34]
AlfredAlfer: boxxy didn't have a rack like mine [02:34]
AlfredAlfer: also she reincarnated into shoeonhead [02:34]
danielpbarron: it is pretty nice [02:34]
mircea_popescu: and all those dumb bimbos with the what was it called, when smartphones got published ? [02:34]
mod6: yah, fappining. [02:35]
AlfredAlfer: Well I'm excited to hear your stormer solutions. The boys will be quite pleased. [02:35]
mircea_popescu: aite. [02:35]
danielpbarron: the hunger games chick showed her cunt even [02:35]
AlfredAlfer: Can you give me a quote to really coax him over here? [02:35]
AlfredAlfer: ew [02:35]
mircea_popescu: i dunno. [02:35]
AlfredAlfer: No worries I'll just link to the suggestions you already wrote out [02:36]
AlfredAlfer: I really appreciate the help [02:36]
mircea_popescu: if something like http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-01#1708428 doesn't make the point for him i dunno what would. [02:36]
a111: Logged on 2017-09-01 05:23 mircea_popescu: http://91.218.246.33/2017/beating-that-spark-of-heaven/ << and i don't mean just the root, either. [02:36]
AlfredAlfer: define root? [02:37]
AlfredAlfer: sry I'm pretty much good at after effects and flash and have no clue about anything else [02:37]
mircea_popescu: if you say trilema.com/ that's the root. if you say trilema.com/blabla/bla-bla/ that's two down from root. [02:38]
AlfredAlfer: oh i see i see [02:38]
mircea_popescu: first / is the root. [02:38]
AlfredAlfer: so no one can shut down trilema [02:38]
mircea_popescu: ah, they try now and again. [02:38]
AlfredAlfer: even if they started targeting you tomorrow and made a dedicated quest [02:38]
AlfredAlfer: never succeed? Ever make a dent? [02:38]
mircea_popescu: but... it's been around for years. it broke the cables story. it broke the fetlife lists. it... [02:38]
mircea_popescu: there's a reason the pantsuit ignore it. [02:38]
AlfredAlfer: ohohoho [02:39]
mircea_popescu: there's a lot of history you don't know. [02:39]
AlfredAlfer: you must really be the big threat then [02:39]
AlfredAlfer: Ohhh hh i'm sure you could fill my head for weeks and I wouldn't know a fraction [02:39]
mircea_popescu: can always read the back logs. prolly instructive. [02:39]
mircea_popescu: at the last count there were ~2mn lines. [02:40]
AlfredAlfer: oh my how would I ever prune through that [02:40]
mircea_popescu: oh right, and http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-29#1705806 [02:40]
a111: Logged on 2017-08-29 22:22 mircea_popescu just counted, trilema (articles only) stands at 10`631`726 words. this excludes my comments there and of course whatever my share of the log's 2mn lines (ie about what, a further 20-30mn words ?) is. [02:40]
AlfredAlfer: wowe [02:40]
mircea_popescu: "the republic is vast and far reaching." [02:40]
AlfredAlfer: mmmm : ))) [02:40]
mod6: Reading the whole log is educational, indeed. [02:40]
AlfredAlfer: the pantsuits only think they control the tip of the iceberg [02:41]
AlfredAlfer: let 'em have it [02:41]
mircea_popescu: well, every girl in nowhere, indiana tells herself "she's got a handle on things". [02:41]
mircea_popescu: kinda the same principle. [02:41]
AlfredAlfer: hahhaha [02:41]
AlfredAlfer: myep [02:41]
AlfredAlfer: such babies. with their baby fiat. [02:41]
mircea_popescu: "i'm the 2nd prettiest girl in school... well in my class... well, according to my friends at least. AND THIS MATTERS AND MEANS SOMETHING!" [02:42]
AlfredAlfer: then they go to college and realize they're just another plane jane in a sea of 8's [02:42]
AlfredAlfer: (if it's not an american college) [02:42]
mircea_popescu: from what i hear they've gotten pretty pudgy in college these days. [02:42]
AlfredAlfer: I guess in that case trilema would be about a 17 on the 10 scale [02:42]
mircea_popescu: used to be fuckfest of all time, but by now it's kinda more like... too much work to roll over. [02:43]
AlfredAlfer: you're so out of their league they can't even fathom you [02:43]
AlfredAlfer: eew [02:43]
AlfredAlfer: basically college is camp to make girls ugly and fat [02:43]
mircea_popescu: pity. [02:43]
AlfredAlfer: I'm lucky i made it out as well as I did [02:43]
mircea_popescu: o, you went to college ? i thought you sold peanuts! [02:44]
AlfredAlfer: it's the food poison... go to s korea where there is no food poison, where the girls are dainty and light and sweet and young [02:44]
AlfredAlfer: yea that's what a degree will get you these days [02:44]
mircea_popescu: costa rica's not bad. [02:44]
AlfredAlfer: I started doing peanuts junior year [02:44]
AlfredAlfer: oh yea i'm sure you got your fair share of thi ccccc latinas [02:44]
mircea_popescu: well yes because they eat crap. but you don't have to. [02:44]
AlfredAlfer: *pistachios, tho. They only downgraded to peanuts when the phillies really started suckin' [02:44]
mircea_popescu: very fine steaks and things, if one can afford. [02:45]
AlfredAlfer: thi cccc latinas are nice tho, i'm not complaining [02:45]
mircea_popescu: o, you dig girls ? [02:45]
AlfredAlfer: No, I'm totally straight [02:45]
AlfredAlfer: I like men [02:45]
mircea_popescu: i don't. [02:45]
AlfredAlfer: but i can appreciate the female form [02:45]
mircea_popescu: i c! [02:45]
AlfredAlfer: yea we all can, it's nothing new [02:45]
AlfredAlfer: i like korean girls [02:45]
mircea_popescu: well, other than being kinda short, there's plenty of form. [02:45]
mircea_popescu: i don't! [02:46]
AlfredAlfer: you know I ran off to S Korea after getting doxed [02:46]
mircea_popescu: how was it ? [02:46]
AlfredAlfer: during when Kim was really threatening to nuke Seoul [02:46]
AlfredAlfer: It was an absolute dream [02:46]
AlfredAlfer: A functioning ethnostate [02:46]
mircea_popescu: see, if you had your own space on the web you could show me the articles now. [02:46]
AlfredAlfer: clean, no bums, respectable people.. and the girls took pride in their appearance [02:46]
AlfredAlfer: growing up around slovenly sows in america, it's quite jarring to be amongst Korean women [02:47]
mircea_popescu: doesn't sound too bad. [02:47]

AlfredAlfer: not exactly [02:56]
mircea_popescu: let's go into detail. [02:56]
AlfredAlfer: ok [02:56]
mircea_popescu: so, if i show you two items, an apple and an orange, and i tell you they're all "Fruit" and ask you why, you might say "because they're all round". this is not correct. [02:56]
AlfredAlfer: mmhm [02:57]
mircea_popescu: but the google "ai" works exactly in this manner : show a large matrix a bunch of different pics, and then see what got fished up, so to speak. [02:57]

mircea_popescu: this actually happens, you flip the pixels it "learned" and it sees the fridge and says cat. [02:57]
mircea_popescu: because it didn't actually learn anything. it's exact equivalent of exam stuffing, implemented by computers. [02:58]

asciilifeform: ever done this over a noisy radio ( or shitphone ) all day ? [15:49]
trinque: yup [15:49]
trinque: latter [15:49]
asciilifeform: 0 eggogs? [15:49]
ben_vulpes: what as if there are zero with spellable names gtfo [15:50]
trinque: why make dns better rather than murder leaving no trace? [15:50]
trinque: hypertext on gossipd may sensibly *lack* the notion of "website" entirely. [15:50]
asciilifeform: trinque: because it is very difficult to murder with no trace a thing to which all of the apparent alternatives are spike cones. [15:50]
asciilifeform: and the problem has applications elsewhere ( dictating rsa keys over voice etc ) [15:51]
trinque: but "I want the page with hash H" [15:51]
trinque: and whichever peers have it or don't [15:51]
asciilifeform: shouting hex digits is lame. [15:51]
trinque: peers may even say "here's what I think dailysturmer is" and you go pick a hash to use [15:51]
asciilifeform: and makes poor use of not only bandwidth but the frontbrain which is sitting right there. [15:51]
trinque: which yes means every single update to ds index page has to flow through someone you know gossiptronically for you to know about it [15:52]
asciilifeform: trinque: 'address by pubkey' yes [15:52]
asciilifeform: i thought it was obvious Right Thing [15:52]
asciilifeform: !#s dicelist [15:54]
a111: 32 results for "dicelist", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=dicelist [15:54]
asciilifeform: ... [15:54]
asciilifeform: ah there. [15:54]
trinque: eh not sold on addressing being the thing addressing identifies who I asked [15:54]
trinque: the hash says what item I want [15:54]
asciilifeform: there is no WHO separate from pubkey. [15:54]
trinque: no shit eh? [15:54]
trinque: but then that station goes down and I wanted an item from it then what? [15:56]
asciilifeform: then as trinque said. [15:56]
asciilifeform: it goes down, the answer to your query of its pubkey is mu until goes back up, neh [15:56]
asciilifeform: how else [15:56]
trinque: I said how else. [15:56]
trinque: how the p2p networks, gnutella et al, worked, but routed over gossipd wotnet [15:56]
asciilifeform: aa in the sense of dht [15:56]
trinque: yessir, dht atop what you're talking about would be quite robust to this whole "hurr durr took down the website FBI logo srs" [15:56]
asciilifeform: ( i use one of these ~daily, 'kademlia' ) [15:56]
asciilifeform: 'gimme ff143abcd...' 'hereitis'/'nobodygotit' [15:57]
asciilifeform: the tricky bit is how to propagate these without ending up with 'no individual node gives anything to allcomers, yes, but allcomer can ring the whole world as a bell and it never stops' [15:58]
trinque: and yes would kill the "dynamic web" thing which, what the fuck, it's hypertext not a program, even if a program generated the hypertext. [15:58]
asciilifeform: kad did this with traditional 'time to live' but that is promisetronic ultimately [15:59]
asciilifeform: trinque: 'www server should serve statics' is great until you realize that you use phf's search box every day and it's a dynamicism [16:00]
asciilifeform: what nao. [16:00]
asciilifeform: see the 'phuctor as a static www' thread [16:01]
trinque: wot.deedbot.org serves statics. [16:01]
trinque: even the search [16:01]
asciilifeform: how's that work ? [16:01]
asciilifeform: ( how does POST work statically ?? ) [16:01]
trinque: anything you're using as a search index can exist as some file with a hash your DHTinator could pull itself and look at on your end. [16:03]
asciilifeform: substrings, trinque -- what happens when i type 'anything you're using as a search index can exist' string into your search ? [16:04]
asciilifeform: describe plox the algo [16:04]
trinque: are we really trying to preserve every idiotic misuse of hypertext here? [16:05]
asciilifeform: fulltext search is not a misuse [16:05]
trinque: by your line of questioning kad can't search [16:05]
asciilifeform: how do i make a phuctor at all with your algo ? ( how do users submit a key ?? ) [16:05]
trinque: by sending you a key over gossipd [16:05]
asciilifeform: kad can only search by hash of entire parcel. [16:05]
trinque: where does hypertext come into that, except "SOP" [16:05]
asciilifeform: trinque: so we're contemplating a separation of reads and writes into unlike protocols ? [16:06]
asciilifeform: ( this is not necessarily a bad idea, but i'd like to hear moar re how ) [16:06]
trinque: exactly how wot.deedbot.org works neh? [16:06]
trinque: eats via bot [16:06]
trinque: maybe bot's offline, can't eat [16:06]
trinque: so yes, if wot.deedbot.org were on gossipd it'd eat by bot attached to particular station, maybe redundant somehow, but leaving that aside, this contemplated DHT could still make particular states of the thing redundant past the the death of trinque [16:07]
asciilifeform: trinque: lemme confess to you the context : i recently took a break from $usual to write an ada www server, and quickly barfed. because thought 'and what, it also gotta handle POSTs, and quickly becomes asinine mess of horror' [16:08]
asciilifeform: but say it DIDN'T handle posts... [16:08]
asciilifeform: let's work out a concrete example [16:09]
trinque: hypertext's an inert datastructure, gives you a graph to crawl over while reading. why's it gotta be an interactive program aside that usecase? [16:09]
trinque: there was a very recent thread re: this [16:09]
asciilifeform: let's take http://phuctor.nosuchlabs.com/gpgkey/DDDE667282B355D21D9F0E3505442E332AB082F487BFFC440034D11D636FD6A7 , well-known lulzgem. [16:10]
asciilifeform: how would you convert this to trinque-addressing scheme without losing functionality ? [16:11]
asciilifeform: ( or, alternatively, what functionality would you have phuctor lose ? ) [16:11]
trinque: lets say it's phuctored again. your station broadcasts to whoever it cares to tell, a particular identifier unique within your station now points to a new hash. [16:12]
trinque: my station hears, can ask you for the goods. [16:12]
asciilifeform: forget the pushing variant. i want to put a handle on a particular pgpkey or pgpfp into the l0gz. what does that look like ? [16:12]
trinque: folks can now ask me whether I have a particular hash, but can only know you meant it to mean "mahmood-anal-perforation-7" if they know you, or if you signed the fact that it is [16:13]
trinque: it looks like the hash of an item, and whatever thing is showing me logs either knows what it is, or doesn't [16:13]
asciilifeform: to reformulate : how do i refer to an index into a db that is indexable by more than one column ? [16:13]
asciilifeform: phuctor deals in TWO types of hash [16:14]
trinque: no multiple columns one hash and it's upon the reader to be able to find the item or not. [16:14]
asciilifeform: ahahahahaha procrustes thx but no thx, plz play again [16:14]
asciilifeform: without procrustation this time [16:14]
trinque: eh I have lost interest by now. [16:15]
asciilifeform: it's an actual open problem, wat [16:15]
asciilifeform: i'd like to see it solved. [16:15]
asciilifeform: ( and not defined away, but solved. ) [16:15]
trinque: you're going to have to point out to me where link-by-hash fails then [16:16]
trinque: and why my reader, being able to resolve hashes of items ~or not~ based on what my station knows, and peer stations tell me. [16:17]
asciilifeform: it fails because -- in the particular example i gave -- it ain't 1:1 [16:20]
trinque: your aliases for items which identify membership of the item in some set *are themselves items which your station publishes, individually* [16:20]
trinque: you belch out facts, rest of the world can either hear you or not, can either confirm you said them or not. or wtf was gossipd again? [16:21]
asciilifeform: trinque: you're mixing layers. basic mechanics of gossiptron is not in dispute, q was re how to query a db by more than 1 possible index col [16:22]
trinque: why do you wish to express querying in terms of a hypertext interface at all? [16:22]
trinque: !!gettrust deedbot asciilifeform [16:23]
deedbot: L1: 1, L2: 10 by 10 connections. [16:23]
asciilifeform: trinque: q is re what a 'url' ( or what we call it instead ) really ~is~ [16:23]
asciilifeform: is it a locative ? or an immutable [16:24]
trinque: as locative, it's not doing so hot. [16:24]
asciilifeform: consider, for sake of argument, curl http://wot.deedbot.org/29F5BC967632415AB9836DB63E452A7A2A00DEC1.html | sha512sum today gives me 19a66977545747f383eccd6f570270a77cd620aa011651c94e777992ee63b08a30052eff4045e672c2387ebfbd18509e5c29a1a247fadcfebf3828dc02789b25 [16:25]
trinque: and URL as some kind of query language is abominable [16:25]
asciilifeform: but tomorrow could be something else, if the ratings change [16:26]
asciilifeform: trinque: the thing behind that url is ephemeral by nature. [16:26]
asciilifeform: the only meaningful way to represent it is by listing the input operands which produced it ( in this case, the fp arg ) [16:27]
asciilifeform: just same as with the phuctor example [16:27]
asciilifeform: just like http://phuctor.nosuchlabs.com/gpgkey/DC02BECF037180105CA079586B51212366B61A8CD3BB5992FD2F90CF9FC7D6C5 , a d00d whose key is unbroken, the page can have potentially very different output the ~next~ time you read it [16:28]
trinque: yes. my station told you that wot.deedbot.org/arbitrarystringforsakeofargument.html means 19a66977545747f383eccd6f570270a77cd620aa011651c94e777992ee63b08a30052eff4045e672c2387ebfbd18509e5c29a1a247fadcfebf3828dc02789b25 [16:28]
trinque: and tomorrow you ask and it says new hash, and maybe even gives you the hashed item, how nice [16:28]
trinque: and as I describe things the gossipdnet now has, if it wants, a history of what its seen, and a way to refer to it. [16:29]
asciilifeform: trinque: might i persuade you to write the algo out ? in longhand [16:29]
trinque: alright [16:30]
asciilifeform: ( sorta like my http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2017-February/000257.html item , for instance ) [16:30]
asciilifeform: more pedantic -- the merrier [16:30]
asciilifeform: i promise to read. [16:30]
trinque: sure, will write. [16:30]
asciilifeform: incidentally ted nelson struggled with this conundrum, and imho his failure to produce anything looked like a solution, is 1 of the reasons why he was relegated to 'voice in wilderness' rather than getting to define www [16:51]
asciilifeform: ( the www people simply pissed on the problem, african-style, and didn't even pretend to solve ) [16:51]
asciilifeform: *anything which looked like [16:52]
trinque: imagine the hilarity of actual human communication resembling www you and I wish to speak irl, we go to the designated 3rd party for the particular language we'll speak, he relays between us and all other folks discussing same. [16:53]
asciilifeform: 'hey trinque, what's your gurl's favourite colour?' '19a66977545747f383eccd6f570270a77cd620aa011651c94e777992ee63b08a30052eff4045e672c2387ebfbd18509e5c29a1a247fadcfebf3828dc02789b25....' [16:53]
asciilifeform: lol! [16:53]
mod6: heheh [16:56]
asciilifeform: ah trinque you meant the incaism of dns etc [16:56]
asciilifeform: sure. [16:56]
trinque: www itself is an incaism. death to "it was said on arsebook walled garden lives and dies at the mercy of arsebook" [16:57]
trinque: anyhow will write, not gonna try to babble it into logs further. [16:58]
asciilifeform: aite [16:58]
asciilifeform: is trinque familiar with 'eternity' and earlier attempts at perma-dht 133337w4r3ztronics ? [16:59]
trinque: not that particular one, but I would hazard a guess it lacked the hierarchial trust topology that makes other republican items work. [17:00]
* trinque afk for a sec [17:00]
asciilifeform: !!up Barbarossa_ [17:28]
deedbot: Barbarossa_ voiced for 30 minutes. [17:28]
Barbarossa_: any chance of a price cut for FUCKGOATS w BTC @ ATH? [17:29]
ben_vulpes: Barbarossa_: there was just a price cut [17:29]
asciilifeform: Barbarossa_: btc has been at alltimehigh maybe 4 days out of 5 for past 6 months neh [17:29]
asciilifeform: and yes there was recently a price cut [17:30]
ben_vulpes: http://trilema.com/2017/no-such-labs-snsa-july-2017-statement/#selection-433.15-433.70 [17:30]
asciilifeform: there are no plans to peg the price, however, to a fixed quantity of usd, or troy of gold, or pounds of grain, or any other babylonian metric., [17:30]
asciilifeform: because why. [17:31]
Barbarossa_: kinda strange to use BTC as unit of account already, no? [17:31]
asciilifeform: why it strange, and usd -- not ? [17:31]
Barbarossa_: variance [17:32]
asciilifeform: 1 btc is worth 1 btc today -- just as in 2009 [17:32]
trinque: ikr, usd loses value all the time. serious variance. [17:32]
asciilifeform: so what variance [17:32]
asciilifeform: 'time flows at 1 second per second ' (tm)(r) [17:32]
Barbarossa_: don't get me wrong: I'm mostly just trying to wrangle for an even cheaper implementation of gold standard entropy (despite not being a joo) [17:33]
asciilifeform: Barbarossa_: technically you can get it for exactly what it costs us -- make it yerself from the schematics [17:34]
Barbarossa_: ye, division of labor and all that [17:34]
asciilifeform: however, the difference b/w what ~that~ costs, and what we charge, is denominated in btc. [17:34]
ben_vulpes: Barbarossa_: jewdom is a state of mind [17:35]
Barbarossa_: damnit, guess I'm a self-loathing crytoJOO after all :( [17:35]
Barbarossa_: crypto* [17:35]
asciilifeform: Barbarossa_: to shed more light on (entirely not seekrit) price structure -- to pay for producing a device, btc is spent. then it gotta be earned back. [17:36]
ben_vulpes: hey it could be worse, you could be cryojewnic [17:36]
hanbot: Barbarossa_ if you own tits in some capacity you could always apply the proceeds of http://trilema.com/2014/ill-pay-for-your-tits/ to your order eh [17:36]
asciilifeform: btc earned back. not -- pointedly -- usd, or dubloons, or grain. [17:36]
asciilifeform: it does 0 good to earn back something other than the btc that was spent. because snsa operates in btc. [17:36]
asciilifeform: does this make sense ? [17:37]
ben_vulpes: how is s.nsa earning the btc back with the price cuts? were materials not paid for in btc many moons past? [17:37]
Barbarossa_: yup tbh I'd pay 3x what you're charging [17:37]
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: the answer lies -- megasurprise -- in the broadcasts. [17:39]
asciilifeform: Barbarossa_: waiwat -- you'd pay 3x, but not the current price ?! [17:40]
asciilifeform: you're welcome to send in 3x the btc ! [17:40]
asciilifeform: and specify 'no thx i only want 1 box' [17:40]
Barbarossa_: I mostly just wanted to bring up FUCKGOATS coz I'm so happy that it exists [17:40]
asciilifeform: why ty Barbarossa_ [17:40]
asciilifeform: Barbarossa_: consider introducing yourself ? who are you ? already own a fg ? [17:41]
Barbarossa_: no - my PGP keys were all generated on a diddled wintel box [17:41]
Barbarossa_: I'm a professsional poker player from the UK [17:41]
asciilifeform: i expect a pokerist would have something to say re rng, aha [17:42]
Barbarossa_: but I'm in the process of getting trb/linux/FG and all that [17:42]
asciilifeform: Barbarossa_: you should definitely stick around until mircea_popescu wakes up [17:42]
Barbarossa_: well, 6 riffle shuffles are enough for us ) [17:42]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu is co-author of fg. [17:42]
asciilifeform: ( and many other nice things ) [17:42]
Barbarossa_: Pokerstars, the largest site, uses a semi-transparent mirror for entropy [17:44]
Barbarossa_: dunno how practical that'd be for a FG-type device tho [17:44]
asciilifeform: the problem with that method, as with many others, is the ~measurement~ apparatus [17:44]
asciilifeform: analogue effects in practice suck for proper rng [17:44]
asciilifeform: because of adc artifacts. [17:44]
Barbarossa_: ye, the key advantage to FG being auditability [17:44]
asciilifeform: correct [17:45]
asciilifeform: i experimented with many types of rng. [17:45]
Barbarossa_: me too [17:46]
Barbarossa_: run-good AND run-bad :D [17:46]
asciilifeform: i rejected all physical effects which require an adc [17:46]
asciilifeform: because there is NO such thing as a zero-artifact adc. [17:46]
asciilifeform: and they all suffer from the equivalent of lcd moire [17:46]
asciilifeform: ( sampling artifact ) [17:46]
asciilifeform: also rejected all effects which require high voltages, because voltagemultipliers contain oscillator [17:47]
asciilifeform: ( which in turn works its way into the output, no matter what you do ) [17:47]
asciilifeform: so no geigers, no reversebiased diodes. [17:47]
asciilifeform: this left johnson noise and natural radioactivity + scintillation detector. the latter may appear in a future snsa product. [17:48]
asciilifeform: ( but it won't be cheap. ) [17:48]
Barbarossa_: I read the FG documentation - will be interesting verifying everything as a total layman [17:49]
asciilifeform: Barbarossa_: see some linked examples ( near top of page , near the schems ) of other folx who verified. [17:49]
Barbarossa_: thanks, will do [17:49]
asciilifeform: and plz do consider posting a link here, when you have. [17:49]
asciilifeform: ( when you get one, and verify in various ways ) [17:49]
Barbarossa_: did you also create the PGP signing dongle thing? [17:50]
asciilifeform: Barbarossa_: in the process of prototyping that one, we found that gpg is a turd [17:51]
Barbarossa_: hmm looks like I need to read more logs [17:51]
asciilifeform: aha. [17:51]
Barbarossa_: I've been using GPG assuming it's sound [17:51]
asciilifeform: a replacement is in the works here. [17:51]
Barbarossa_: true philanthropy! [17:52]
asciilifeform: not so much from philanthropy, as from the fact of gpg being rather like the sarcophagus at chernobyl, times 9000 [17:52]

Barbarossa_: not saying I want to, just that I would! [18:00]
Barbarossa_: beats rolling dice all day [18:00]
ben_vulpes: Barbarossa_: market clearing price is danielpbarron's lower-than-snsa offer [18:00]
Barbarossa_: ah right, well - I like filling in webforms [18:00]
asciilifeform: sorta like that thread where asciilifeform mentioned that he'd buy a 10,000$ comp. but not same comp he has , hopefully ! but ~a~ comp [18:01]

asciilifeform: if you think you see somebody willingly paying 'more than market price', consider that you might be mistaken re the identity of what he's paying for [18:03]
ben_vulpes: fg from ft meade! [18:04]
asciilifeform: so if mircea_popescu is paying ben_vulpes 10 dubloons per diem to guard his plutonium stash, it does not follow that this is 'above market' just because there is a queue of redditors offering to do it for 1 dubloon [18:04]
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: all fg should be assumed to pass through ftmeade. sorta what the audit process is for, neh. [18:05]
ben_vulpes: well yeah [18:06]
asciilifeform: though i've thought about suggesting to mircea_popescu to offer hand-delivery ( chore would fall to asciilifeform... ) as an option. but i dun like nonflat prices [18:06]
ben_vulpes: for my illumination, what do you figure Barbarossa_ is buying from you that he is not from danielpbarron ? [18:07]
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i don't know specifically what. [18:07]
BingoBoingo: Well 2nd as opposed to first batch for one [18:07]
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: what do you expect from toyota when you go to them instead of used dealer ? [18:07]

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i haven't any notion, maybe he runs them near his particle accelerator's beamline, wat. [18:08]

We asked this trusted resource to perform an in-depth analysis of the randomness of the output of the RNG, and its implementation in the shuffling of the cards on our platform.' [18:15]

Barbarossa_: Pokerstars explicity claim TRNG [18:18]
asciilifeform: this does not actually solve the problem of proving that the output of prng was not known in advance to one or more of the players. [18:18]
asciilifeform: claiming trng is unprovable. they might have a fg, or they might have a wad of bytes generated in 2014 and designated winners get a copy. [18:19]

mircea_popescu: let's take as sample text "what means 'more compact construct'". [19:21]
asciilifeform: aite. your block size is 5. [19:21]
asciilifeform: what are the blocks ? [19:21]
mircea_popescu: signed material looks as follows : 0001what 0faadd0002means8391240004 'moraff02930005...ffffuct'ajk40009a435aad [19:22]
mircea_popescu: and you know 9 blocks were signed, and they are as such : [19:22]

asciilifeform: there is nothing hard-linking the chunks to your particular transmission. [19:23]
mircea_popescu: the final bit is, yes. [19:23]
asciilifeform: what's the final bit ? [19:24]

mircea_popescu: "yes, enemy has alphabet of chunks : he knows how to sign ilif every time it comes after asci and is 2nd in ther chain" [19:25]
trinque: doesn't that successfuly diminish the likelihood of a usable collision? [19:26]
mircea_popescu: yes. [19:26]
trinque: *successively. [19:26]
mircea_popescu: and it's not even the only technique. [19:26]
asciilifeform: we already established that a hash collision is asteroid event for blockchain. [19:26]
mircea_popescu: just spur of the moment. [19:26]
asciilifeform: ( old thread ) [19:26]
mircea_popescu: and besides, with a settable hash like mpfhf you can use different size hashes all the time. [19:26]
mircea_popescu: "hurr durr we know how to sign "cocksucker" whenever they use 93 bit outputs. which is... not now." [19:26]
asciilifeform: there is no place for blank cheques in network protocol. [19:27]
mircea_popescu: and by no means mpfhf only settable. keccak will work also. [19:27]
asciilifeform: gotta fixedtimespace. [19:27]
mircea_popescu: so, message as chain of message blocks, with acordeon, settable hash. yes it is "possible" to get a collision. if your hash is 512bytes long... not soon. [19:27]
asciilifeform: hash collisions cannot be fixed by 'we use THIS OTHER hash NAO! haha' because now enemy can monkey with the past. [19:28]
asciilifeform: the past has no 'now' [19:28]
mircea_popescu: nobody forces us to use the 32/64 byte crap nsit likes. [19:28]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform LONGER hashes. [19:28]
asciilifeform: yes but you cannot retro-elongate hashes of the past. [19:28]
mircea_popescu: so who cares. [19:28]
mircea_popescu: there's no shits given re tmsa-rsa-signature being retrocompatible. [19:28]
asciilifeform: anyone verifying a freshly synced node?! [19:28]

asciilifeform: i dun mean 'retrocompatible with usg', i mean -- with self. [19:28]
mircea_popescu: we're talking of different things in the sense you went off on a tangent. [19:29]

jhvh1: mircea_popescu: 2 ** 256 = 1.157920892373162E77 [19:29]
asciilifeform: i don't see a zero [19:30]
mircea_popescu: e 77, you understand me. [19:30]
asciilifeform: that ain't a zero. [19:30]
mircea_popescu: e 77 is how you say zero on earth. [19:30]
asciilifeform: and nobody promised you a fair roulette here. [19:30]
asciilifeform: there is NO theoretical proof of strength for any hash algo [19:30]
asciilifeform: just as there is not for block cipher. [19:30]
asciilifeform: they are vooodoo. [19:30]
mircea_popescu: we'll soon enough have a practical one. [19:30]
asciilifeform: 0 proof of strength. [19:30]
trinque: penultimate worst case is that folks republish their items in the case of hashpocalypse. and they tell their trusted peers. and it propagates over wot. [19:31]
mircea_popescu: tell you what, i also have no proof in your sense the slavegirls ain't cheating on me. [19:31]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i did not say 'let's all quit using hashes', nao [19:31]
trinque: worst case is the original publisher is dead, and all you've got are whoever cared about him. [19:31]
asciilifeform: but did say 'fractional reserve' [19:31]
asciilifeform: which is IS. [19:31]
trinque: and they republish what they've got. like all history. [19:31]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the fraction is so small as to be below heisenberg limits. this matters. [19:31]
asciilifeform: only if it's an ideal roulette [19:32]
asciilifeform: and not a 'year is 2020 and keccak broke' [19:32]
mircea_popescu: huge difference between sub-heisenberg fractional and super-heisenberg fractional. [19:32]
mircea_popescu: gotta find out somehow. [19:32]
asciilifeform: in other walks of life, when, e.g., building bridge, there is a notion of material strength [19:32]
asciilifeform: you know roughly how much stress a thing can take, before you put stress on it [19:33]
asciilifeform: we have no such thing for hash. [19:33]
asciilifeform: ( and i say this after making 'v', where proposed to put all of human knowledge to sit on hash! lol ) [19:33]
mircea_popescu: for the record, si heisenberg limit is 10^-34 [19:34]
asciilifeform: i'd like to find what trinque had in mind re accounting for collisions. ( but let's encourage him to put it in the article! ) [19:34]
asciilifeform: btw mircea_popescu it so happens that i have what looks like a solution to 'sign a TB with a 4096bit key with no hash' [19:36]
asciilifeform: or rather not i have one, but [19:36]
asciilifeform: luby has one. [19:36]
mircea_popescu: possibru [19:36]
asciilifeform: ( now it should be obvious how ) [19:36]
mircea_popescu: no, i was expecting that's what you want ever since pushing me above. [19:36]
mircea_popescu: and i don't think it's necessarily a bad solution, which is why i said there are others. [19:37]
asciilifeform: grind luby's soliton distribution, and you get a calculably vanishing probability of failure [19:37]
asciilifeform: sorta like in miller-rabin. [19:37]
asciilifeform: for n00bz, i'll review : cut into chunks C1,C2,...,Cn then sign, S(C1 xor C2), S(C2,C3,C9999), S(C5), etc. with the 'soliton' providing the arity [19:38]
asciilifeform: ideally you'd have no 1-aries , for reason discussed earlier [19:38]
mircea_popescu: you can chose an arbitrary large prime and have that arity. [19:39]
asciilifeform: then verify by unlubying. [19:39]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there's potentially infinitely many ways to lubyate [19:39]
mircea_popescu: right. [19:39]
mircea_popescu: so as i was saying -- we don't have to usg.dumb sign anything. [19:39]
asciilifeform: that goes withoutsaying lol [19:39]
mircea_popescu: aite then [19:39]
asciilifeform: lulzily, the above result contradicts the 'literature' [19:40]
asciilifeform: where whatshisface 'proved' that public key signatures are impossible w/out hashing. [19:40]
mircea_popescu: right. [19:40]
asciilifeform: ('trapdoors must exist') [19:40]
mircea_popescu: good thing we didn't read the pdfs. [19:40]

mircea_popescu: not so much for capital goods. [19:58]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: proposed strictly as an answer to the provenance thing [19:59]
asciilifeform: i.e. no dirty usg postman hands [19:59]
mircea_popescu: not a good answer. courier can get ambushed just as well. [19:59]
mircea_popescu: what, you're going to arm them too ? with what, submarines ? [19:59]
asciilifeform: and asciilifeform can be replaced with ninjashogun right here in his chair neh. idea is to reduce the layers to 1. [19:59]
mircea_popescu: there's no actual reduction just an expensive, bug ridden implementation of half of usmail [20:00]
asciilifeform: but i dun know that anybody wants to pay for what it costs to deliver this way, unless he lives across the street. [20:00]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i beg to differ, if unit hangs around asciilifeform's neck from door to door, it's a layer reduction and not == to usmail. [20:01]
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-01#1709330 << this trusted, anonymous item. sounds like fiat thought process, that strand of fatlogic.\ [20:01]

We asked this trusted resource to perform an in-depth analysis of the randomness of the output of the RNG, and its implementation in the shuffling of the cards on our platform.' [20:01]
asciilifeform: ikr? [20:01]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this impression is borne out of lack of experience and no more. what, i'm going to assembly line phds ? [20:01]
asciilifeform: almost like 'trusted' were just a cardboard propeller on a straw airplane to these folx [20:01]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in point of fact folx can and do sometimes pay for phd to make an appearance at an assembly line. [20:02]
asciilifeform: depends on the occasion neh. [20:02]
mircea_popescu: true. but not really a bread and butter thing. [20:02]
asciilifeform: wasn't proposed as a standard part of fg delivery lol [20:02]
mircea_popescu: thanks heavens. [20:02]
asciilifeform: asciilifeform is not made of rubber. [20:03]
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-01#1709343 << dooglus 's implementation actually solved that. [20:03]
a111: Logged on 2017-09-01 22:18 asciilifeform: this does not actually solve the problem of proving that the output of prng was not known in advance to one or more of the players. [20:03]
asciilifeform: oh -- how ? [20:03]
mircea_popescu: the reason i kept trying to get him to be involved with things was exactly that he had good solutions to actual problems. but... never caught on. [20:03]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform seed is a combo of site-produced TRNG entropy and player-set (with defaults if playher doesn't feel like setting). you can change your portion at any time. [20:04]
mircea_popescu: conceptually equivalent to sha(site+player1) etc. [20:04]
asciilifeform: what does the end-of-play reveal look like ? [20:04]
mircea_popescu: site publishes site + player, player can verify that published player = what he thought he was and that the sha results match (published) [20:05]
asciilifeform: does it publish 'and then player 9000 changed his nonce at time 100' etc ? [20:06]
asciilifeform: that'd make sense. [20:06]
asciilifeform: nifty. [20:06]
mircea_popescu: concrete example : you set your seed to "i like chicks with small tits", site sets seed to "71c0891f45d65ff7" [20:06]
mircea_popescu: then the first hand is played as 0c3dbf77a25ebe9733548266406161111522839d1d41f221070e59c361f6b2b0990df0606d143e90b1bb9ed1a9b39ff5fcf0ac153cc0e90297f1273076fcf38c [20:07]
asciilifeform: this reduces to shamir's algo dunnit. [20:07]
* asciilifeform gets [20:07]
asciilifeform: of course you still can't prove that the house was not 'btcmining' the hash [20:07]
mircea_popescu: and then when the reveal occurs, you sha512(i like chicks with small tits71c0891f45d65ff7) and see. [20:07]
asciilifeform: and that all the other players' nonces aren't hashwaltzes [20:07]
mircea_popescu: this was for casino style games. [20:07]
mircea_popescu: ie, you against the house. [20:07]
asciilifeform: esp if 'anyone can change his nonce whenever' [20:07]
asciilifeform: then especially how can you prove absence of waltz [20:07]
mircea_popescu: and it doesn't work without withening or in other words : he intelligently used the otherwise useless whitening step as an assurance provider. was pretty clever move, esp considering the standard for intelligence at the time. [20:08]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what do you mean by waltz ? [20:08]
asciilifeform: walk the nonces until the hash output comes out in favour of house [20:08]
asciilifeform: ( the nonces OTHER than yours ) [20:08]
mircea_popescu: house uses the same hash for all players for the whole day. [20:08]
asciilifeform: let's say poker [20:08]
mircea_popescu: that's what it means "house", in this new paradigm. [20:09]
asciilifeform: how to prove that the other N-1 players, other than yourself, ain't sybils [20:09]
asciilifeform: who change their nonces specifically when it would benefit the house, and in such a way as to. [20:09]
mircea_popescu: again, this was for casino games, not poker. he never implemented multiplayer afaik. [20:09]
asciilifeform: 'house' being them [20:09]
asciilifeform: for house games would work [20:09]
mircea_popescu: it's what it was used for. [20:09]
asciilifeform: aite. [20:09]
asciilifeform: clever [20:09]
mircea_popescu: anyway, we had a good solution with poker, but it never got implemented. [20:10]
