a111: Logged on 2018-04-16 15:20 mircea_popescu: the best example i can think of is the code on the old handheld calculators. THAT is a general purpose os : it makes no assumption about the downstream, merely fully, cleanly and directly exposes the hardware. [04:56]

[11:14]
mircea_popescu: the jury is still out, as far as i'm concerned, on whether the os that loses control of a machine is still an os, meaning it's not altogether clear to me the basic-whatever combo they had at the time actually constitutes an os. but the problem FUCKING ISNT the naive perception at the time, "oh, it didn't hjave icons to click like windows 3.1". windows 3.1 was not an os nor was any other windows product an os. microsoft ship [11:17]

spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-17#1800947 <-- I deliberately left the "underneath the OS" bit out because it was not explicitly mentioned in the definition. but yes, in my question I was looking for "specificity", same that's mentioned in http://thetarpit.org/posts/y04/06d-what-is-an-os.html#selection-179.0-179.238 [12:05]
a111: Logged on 2018-04-17 15:04 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-17#1800912 << this item is not an os at all, if it runs on a machine which is capable, hardware-wise, of more than a no-op. [12:05]
spyked: so, taking anotehr shot at this definition: a general-purpose os is an os that cleanly exposes hardware to user programs, without making assumptions about the latter. it's still not immediately clear to me what "cleanly" means, but this'll have to do. [12:06]
spyked: anyway, this thread put together should make for a decent follow-up piece, i'ma get to it tomorrow. [12:07]
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-17#1800949 <-- could also be a turing-capable cpu that exposes the instructions natively after the program is loaded. the important part was re what the os itself exposes (or not, in this case) and how this relates to "makes no assumptions about P" [12:11]
a111: Logged on 2018-04-17 15:05 mircea_popescu: if however that os runs on a no-op single instruction cpu, then it is absolutely general purpose. [12:11]
mircea_popescu: trinque, someone threw a helluva party. [12:11]
mircea_popescu: spyked, cleanly ie, simplest bijective. 1. all items in A are represented in B 2. all items in B have an underlying in A 3. there is no simpler relation in any case. [12:12]
mircea_popescu: spyked, perhaps another useful heuristic is the authority problem. if the specification of a user program CAN include a MUST statement, quo warranto ? if "the os", then it is not general purpose. [12:13]
mircea_popescu: and perhaps worthy of noting here, that the "trend" "emerging" from usg's own "computer security" roadside act cum flea circus, is towards special-purpose os. because that's what they mean by "security". [12:15]
mircea_popescu: whereas the one user one box tmsr approach sticks with the general purpose os philosophy, and expects spurious color-of-bits considerations to be implemented in the realm in which they belong -- if you want to own the bits own the box, there shall be no legislating here. [12:16]
spyked: mircea_popescu, I don't see a fundamental problem with special-purpose os (which is why I mentioned "bitcoin node os" as one, though it *could* in principle be implemented as a particular instance of a general-purpose os). embedded hardware (e.g. requiring timing constriants) is full of them. [12:23]
spyked: *constraints [12:24]
mircea_popescu: it all comes down to WHAT is the special purpose. mind that the direction the bitcoin node os is taking is towards ~special purpose hardware~. this is very fucking different, whether you have special purpose hardware run by general purpose osen, or whether you have ibm at clone consumershit emulated into republican sanity by usg's flaour of special purpose os. [12:28]
mircea_popescu: because in the former case, the VARIOUS gposen would still be in fact different from each other. [12:28]
mircea_popescu: the confounding factor here is pantsuitist outlook, whereby some retard (the user) regards self as meausre of all things and imagines all vectors start from him, and therefore in his boneheaded approach to the world, "general purpose os" means something about him. it fucking doesn't, a general purpose os isn't one joe schcmucktoe can put on a stick and carry around and "it'll work on all computers he encounters". [12:31]
mircea_popescu: ye olde sld-7001 (check me out, meanwhile i found it!)'s os is GP, notwithstanding it won't run your "intelligent" lawnmower. [12:31]
* spyked looks [12:33]
mircea_popescu: so fucking old, citizen itself no longer lists it. [12:34]
spyked: aha, found nothing on hardware and software specs. mircea_popescu, if it's any similar to the calculators I had as a kid, it might not even have any software (all calculator logic implemented using gates) [12:38]
mircea_popescu: soooo ? [12:39]
mircea_popescu: what, your no-op example is not trivial, but my no-os example is ? [12:39]
mircea_popescu: 0-lenght os can still be gp. [12:39]
spyked: well, I didn't say it *doesn't* have an OS. just trying to figure out what that is :D [12:39]
mircea_popescu: :p [12:39]
mircea_popescu: i don't expect it was anything. [12:39]
mircea_popescu: in fact, 0-length os is guaranteed gp. [12:40]
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, this is too fluid to fix in a comment, and i'd rather have it here than in #eulora. so : let's call eucrypt.serpent X and eucrypt.RSA-OAEP R. now, 1. client wants to log in, R(hello) -> S[erver]. [12:49]
mircea_popescu: at this juncture, server knows "someone" claiming to be A initiated a connection. it should therefore send X(answer) back, where X uses a key that S knows A should have, on the basis of previous comms. [12:50]
mircea_popescu: if A fails to respond, S will close the connection, practically meaning that A can't claim to be A unless he keeps some X keys about. which is something A-implementers must be aware of. [12:51]
mircea_popescu: now, if B wants to update his X.keys with the server, he sends them X'd with one of the existing S keys. meaning, again, that if B manages to lose all S's X keys, it lost the account. [12:52]
mircea_popescu: so implementations MUST keep at least a local and a server X key at all times doing otherwise is === deleting the account. [12:53]
mircea_popescu: this is then the eulora future login handshake : C : hello S : new account, here are your keys C : here's some keys of mine. they can now continue indefinitely, just as long as nobody loses all the keys. [12:54]
mircea_popescu: actually, let's make this clearer, it's ambiguous as it stands. C : hello S : new account, here are some X keys you can use to decrypt and some X keys you're required to use to encrypt C : here's my R key [and here are some X keys i'd prefer to use]. [12:57]
mircea_popescu: which then runs into the obvious problem that i had been chasing all this time : client's R key has to come earlier in the flux. how about the rule that all hello items sent to the server are either a) encrypted to a pre-existing X key or else b) contain a R key ? ie, our helo is not correct as specced. [13:00]
mircea_popescu: if instead we made it rely on R, there'd be great benefits. consider this alternate model : C : R(hi, this is C.R.key) S : R(here's some X keys for me and for you) C:(actually i'd rather you use these X keys for me). [13:07]
mircea_popescu: like this, server must not lose its R privkey and clients must not lose their R privkey , but pubkeys of all these can be safely lost, and X keys don't matter at all. seems altogether safer and less friable. [13:08]
mircea_popescu: now subsidiary for all this : server should generate a batch of X keys and send them to the client every time its store of either S or C X keys drops under a certain value. it's therefore the client responsibility to make sure there's enough keys in store if it doesn't want to pay for key generation. now, what should this threshold be ? 3 ? [13:12]
mircea_popescu: also important, third question : should the client be permitted to generate X keys for the server ? [13:13]
* ascii_lander reporting live from... inside the cage. fixed the raid oops on smg box nao partitioning it & copying dulap's gentoo [13:19]
mircea_popescu: win. [13:21]
mircea_popescu: now here's a question on which i'd very much like to hear a lordship oppinion. so, the model currently contemplated for eulora includes a bit whereby the server has to be told by the client a magic string, and will report this back to the client on demand, "here's what you told me you are". the idea is that the client can then sha his binary, and see if the strings match. [13:28]
mircea_popescu: the reason for this is that games are eminently a domain where people share binaries, a matter of fact established both from general and minigame's own experience. obviously in the sane world of source sharing, v is the correct solution. but if people are going to share binaries, this seems like the only available approach. [13:29]
mircea_popescu: (one could object, "it's pointless to attempt this, hacked client can just replace magic string", which is true, but nevertheless client can still binary audit his item and see / login with a special, known-good string-test-only client and see what he should be. ie, client can bootstrap himself out of the fakebox produced by a hacked binary. [13:31]
mircea_popescu: now obviously, this approach wouldn't be nearly as useful for dynamically linked clients but i deem the fact that it puts the security incentive on dumping dynamic linking a very good thing. [13:32]

a111: Logged on 2018-04-17 16:50 mircea_popescu: at this juncture, server knows "someone" claiming to be A initiated a connection. it should therefore send X(answer) back, where X uses a key that S knows A should have, on the basis of previous comms. [13:34]
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, well, two kinds of helo, yes ? when initiating a connection and when initaitng an account. [13:35]
diana_coman: the idea was that if client loses all his X keys, he can send a hello message again [13:35]
diana_coman: uhm, no [13:35]
diana_coman: ah, you mean the same but just id vs no id? [13:35]
mircea_popescu: basically. [13:35]
mircea_popescu: that's what i mean, this is kinda too fluid and i suspect it's because somewhere in my head i conflate two things. [13:36]
diana_coman: it does seem like you have something else in mind indeed hm [13:37]
diana_coman: possibly the "register account" vs "authenticate" [13:37]
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, in any case strictly speaking, the helo as we spec it does not include R pubkey whereas in practice it actually must. but read the whole blob, this is better compiled htan parsed. [13:38]
* diana_coman reads [13:38]
diana_coman: I don't quite follow why is server concerned with client's stock of R keys? client can request new keys, burn them, do whatever it wants as it decides how often it wants new keys [13:42]
diana_coman: why is this server's concern? [13:42]
mircea_popescu: X keys only R key is one. and server is concerned because if it has no client X keys, it can't send, and if the client has no server X keys, the server can't receive. [13:43]
diana_coman: ugh, meant X there [13:43]
diana_coman: I don't quite follow why is server concerned with client's stock of X keys? client can request new keys, burn them, do whatever it wants as it decides how often it wants new keys [13:43]
mircea_popescu: but basically the idea for X keys is to work like that, if you don't have any server makes, if you make them then server uses . [13:43]
diana_coman: but if you don't know that you don't have... [13:44]
mircea_popescu: how could the server not know ? [13:44]
diana_coman: but why does the server *care*? to spare the client the need to ask or what? [13:45]
mircea_popescu: yes. [13:45]
diana_coman: why? [13:45]
mircea_popescu: because it's stuck keeping a list of keys anyway. so it knows how many they are anyway. so might as well send when needed rather than wait to be asked. [13:45]
diana_coman: so server sets threshold at 3 why can't I decide I want that at 2 and you at 5 and so on [13:45]
mircea_popescu: you can send as many as you want, the server will keep them for you. [13:46]
diana_coman: this was lower threshold, lol [13:46]
mircea_popescu: but if you want less than 3, it'll keep sending you extras until you give up trying to argue with my server. [13:46]
diana_coman: yes, but...why [13:46]
mircea_popescu: hm [13:46]
mircea_popescu: so no X key thresholds ? [13:46]
diana_coman: server wants to look after clients so they don't end up without keys it can, sure all I'm saying is that I don't quite see the reason for this perhaps other than "clients are idiots, let's at least avoid the case where they end up going hello hello all the time" [13:47]
mircea_popescu: seems to me the threshold will practically be set at 1 as a matter of absolute necessity. once that is the case, setting it at 3 is in no substantial way different : just as many keys will be used as before, but the setting at 3 forces key creation at a time prior to when keys are needed, which seems to help with resource load spread. [13:48]
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, kinda 90% of all server code aims to avoid "accidental client ddos". [13:48]
diana_coman: that makes more sense, yes [13:48]
mircea_popescu: i don't have this modelled well enough to say it with certainty but it seems to me 3 is a reasonable choice. [13:49]
diana_coman: well, it's certainly not the number I have a problem with anyway [13:49]
mircea_popescu: but you agree it can never be lower than 1 ? [13:50]
diana_coman: I'm still not convinced it has to be if it gets lower than 1 and client hasn't asked, I'd just disconnect them and they can get back with a hello that is low priority and they..w.ait [13:50]
diana_coman: no ddos anywa [13:50]
mircea_popescu: yes, but here's the principle : if server knows something will be needed as a certainty, server should act rather than wait to be called to act. which is why it's a server rather than a client. [13:51]
diana_coman: uhm, dunno about that certainty there maybe client doesn't want to keep serpent keys between sessions for all I know [13:52]
mircea_popescu: that's a usestyle we discourage anyway. [13:52]
mircea_popescu: (for the oursiders : it is the agreement in minigame boardroom that rsa helo packets from existing clients will be lowest priority, after 1. serpent packets and 2. rsa helo packets from unknown clients. the idea is you keep your serpent keys, and continue your "session" whenever, it's kind of a stateless session)\ [13:53]
diana_coman: re creating account: it obviously needs the client's public rsa and atm that one is nowhere in there, yes I thought you didn't want them in there because it's not just about "a rsa key" but rather one registered with deedbot sort of thing [13:54]
diana_coman: so it's not enough that client plonks a key in there [13:54]
mircea_popescu: (it does away with the "is user logged in". you can pm everyone all the time, they're always logged in anyway). [13:55]
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, one consideration was that if it includes pubkey it will have to be multipacket and i wanted it to be singlepacket for some now incomprehensible reason. [13:55]
mircea_popescu: but no, seems the correct approach is to replace 3.1.5 with "rsa pubkey". and ACTUALLY use that as the account id. [13:56]
diana_coman: rsa pubkey if de-facto account id anyway i.e. identifies uniquely one account, yes [13:57]
diana_coman: if* -> is [13:57]
mircea_popescu: yeah. it's the only sane identifier to be had. [13:57]
diana_coman: but to my earlier obs: so you're fine with people creating account with any rsa key (well, tmsr/eucrypt rsa at least) ? [13:58]
mircea_popescu: yes. [13:58]
mircea_popescu: i know this isn't how it works now and hasn't been for a long time, but i'm ready to move on!!1 [13:58]
diana_coman: ok, so then there is hello-new-account with the R public key there are otherwise *only* X messages? and if no X key then ...account lost or can it re-send "new account" and basically retrieve the old one? [13:59]
mircea_popescu: im thinking it's actually best to have a single helo, with r-pubkey. if it is known to the server then it sends X keys if it is not known then... it sends X keys. [14:22]
mircea_popescu: see ? [14:22]
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, ^ [14:22]
mircea_popescu: re "registered with deedbot" part : i expect in-game trade should be the driver of both rating and registration. [14:30]
diana_coman: well yes, it is only one, the "hello-new-account" although whether it's "old" or "new"...same difference [14:32]
diana_coman: but it's needed only when client doesn't have any X keys for whatever reason basically, right? [14:32]
diana_coman: otherwise there isn't any hello as such, just send directly whatever it wants/needs, encrypted with one of the X keys and that's that [14:33]
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, ^ [14:33]
mircea_popescu: exactly. [14:35]
mircea_popescu: if client has at least one server X key it can bootstrap, sending more. [14:35]
mircea_popescu: if it doesn't, has to helo. [14:35]
diana_coman: aha [14:36]
diana_coman: I'll eat the convo again and then update the spec (+link to log ofc) hopefully [14:36]
mircea_popescu: aite. i really think we have to have someone working at this wall from the other end, hence the original http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-17#1800966 comment. [14:37]

douchebag: I was just making sure withdrawls for those girls yesterday went through properly - no rush getting them processed [15:44]
trinque: I have 7 in the hopper for this evening. [15:46]
douchebag: Sounds good man, thanks [15:46]
trinque: the !!pay wasn't broken, just !!balance and !!withdraw [15:46]
trinque: sure, np. [15:46]
douchebag: I think that's really awesome way how you do withdrawls though [15:46]
douchebag: In terms of security [15:46]
trinque: well and I have to admit that leaning on it exposed that the !!register service was weak (albeit weak meaning "couldn't survive 10kbps wire with packet loss") [15:47]
trinque: so thanks for that [15:47]
douchebag: Yeah no problem, glad I could bring that to your attention [15:48]
douchebag: So trinque, what is it exactly that got you interested in programming/networking/sysadmin stuff? What sort of things interested you the most and motivated you to keep learning? [15:50]
trinque: mmm, got my dad's computer stuck in DOS back in the win95 days playing a game. I was about 7-8? he was away on a trip, so I had 2 days to "fix the computer" or certain asswhippin. found the thing in win.ini or w/e it was, changed it, avoided wrath. [15:54]
trinque: clicked in my head that "oh, *this* is what the computer is for. change the text, and it does something different." [15:55]
trinque: that's about it, really. pretty african origin story compared to the 80s kids [15:55]
douchebag: Interesting [15:57]

diana_coman: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-17#1801097 <- mircea_popescu looking at it again from all sides I think the consideration is not necessarily misplaced in itself i.e. multi-packet there does make a mess out of the neat "these are the only *packets* you may ever send" this being said though, I don't quite see the solution that would *also* preserve the desired "whatever it is, server responds the same: with a set of X keys" [16:36]
a111: Logged on 2018-04-17 17:55 mircea_popescu: diana_coman, one consideration was that if it includes pubkey it will have to be multipacket and i wanted it to be singlepacket for some now incomprehensible reason. [16:36]
diana_coman: and at any rate, we end up with a "hello" packet that is the first one, containing version of comms protocol and client id string and all that jazz but *at most* some bits of the key only, followed by... more packets with the remaining, chopped-up public rsa key [16:39]
diana_coman: alternatively the hello message stays single-packet and uses a keccak hash of the public key (n,e,comment) as "account ID" so 3.1.5 then key is sent via Data packages and basically I need to define another type for RSA public key server can ask/expect the RSA key *every time* to preserve same answer behaviour or otherwise only if it doesn't know the key [16:53]

mircea_popescu: no further than earlier over coffee, girl proposed that during her stay in $us.shithole she "tried getting into beer" because well... gotta have an activity and there was no good alcohool available, except for this beer that didn't utterly suck. so i said, "why not make a still", and she said "baring divine intervention...." [21:35]
mircea_popescu: what fucking divine intervention, a still is $15 in household equipment, get one of those rice cookers or w/e pot warmers, wirth digital temperature adjustment. set it for 79C, stick an erlenmeyer glass in there with a cork and a bent tube coming out, put an ice pack over the tube and voila! whatever southern confort goes in, 195 or so proof alcohol comes out. [21:36]

ckang: evening all. [22:11]
phf: i think alcohol production is forbidden in u.s. by a divine inca decree, so there's only two ways of doing it, in a redneck bathtub, while being redneck, or using hadron collider, like a civilized store alcohol supplier. [22:13]
ckang: or you get a fuel permit ) [22:13]
trinque: I dunno if it was legal or not, but buddy in highschool made his own beer in his bedroom. [22:14]
trinque: it was.. yeasty [22:14]

ckang: its distilled stuff it gets sketchy [22:14]

mircea_popescu: it won't make commercial amounts, but even the smallest still can outpour your gullet. [22:18]
mircea_popescu: also it's not properly production, merely fractional distillation of last pass. you're just taking the BBAV/BAC/whatever shitstilleries out of your cup. [22:18]

ckang: do it under a vacuum :) [22:21]
mircea_popescu: copper stills are great for taking mash (0.x - 7% or so alcohol) to spirit (30-40% or so). they're terrible for trying the 30-50% to 95% part. [22:21]
ckang: wrong kind of still ofc [22:21]
ckang: but takes much less watts to start producing [22:21]
mircea_popescu: i suppose you could get a custom made resistor + multi-spot thermometers and push a point. [22:21]

mircea_popescu: in other lulz : this chan is now 1/3 whore by mass. [23:27]

douchebag: lmfaoooo [23:29]

trinque: it's almost christlike in here [23:29]
trinque: danielpbarron go get 'em [23:30]
mircea_popescu: in other-other lulz : torrentmaster's new uberbox (that trinque graciously helped with) is in business, doing a glorious 10MB/s of the early trilema films -- that's about 4% of its pipe or so. in a week or two it will contain the complete list. [23:31]
mircea_popescu: i'm spending on it 3x what the average suburban douchebag spends on his car, it's true, but i count it as a mitzvah : this way, the films that matter have a better shot at survival than the films that don't. [23:32]

ben_vulpes: i just reluctantly watched seth rogen's "comedy for charity" special thing, and aside from the predictably bad-because-too-short-because-format-demands-it standup "bits", i think he misses a golden opportunity to do a sketch where god scolds him for doing charity so damnably self-aggrandizingly [23:34]
mircea_popescu: i kid you not, 5.8 e+18 copies available per year! [23:34]
douchebag: Who are you calling a douchebag? [23:34]
douchebag: Better not be me! [23:34]
mircea_popescu: lol [23:35]
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes, i think the average pantsuit can't do a good job on the topic of charity for fear such'd be tantamount to i dunno, having voted for trump. there's some fields in which the pantsuit perceive a need to be incredibly retarded for ingroup reasons. [23:36]
