[ot][spam][crazy] log: hobby chart of removal requests
by Undiscussed Horrific Abuse, One Victim of Many 07 Jul '22

07 Jul '22

i'd kind of like to make charts showing the removal requests i'm seeing i think they would make a pleasant linear line with some jitter that relates to network latency. they could be more interesting than that, i don't know. some time ago i figured out how to access my email programmatically, but i don't remember well how or where that was. i have inhibition around it, relates to archival of personal evidence. but i bet my email is already set up for imap access. maybe a python imap library

Ars Technica: The cryptopocalypse is nigh! NIST rolls out new encryption standards to prepare
by professor rat 07 Jul '22

Fake news from a fake anarchist. There is already quantum encryption that's expensive now but prices will fall with wider adoption. There are also forms of encryption not subject to these tiresome beat-up bullshit journalist stories. Conde Nast are a well-known fraud on the public and Jim Bell should be better known as one now especially since his perversions of the last few years - Prague - Anarchopulco - list spam for the Lunar Right. Fuck off Bell - you're not a crypto-anarchists arsehole. GO DIE!

Ars Technica: The cryptopocalypse is nigh! NIST rolls out new encryption standards to prepare. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/07/nist-selects-quantum… In the not-too-distant future—as little as a decade, perhaps, nobody knows exactly how long—the cryptography protecting your bank transactions, chat messages, and medical records from prying eyes is going to break spectacularly with the advent of quantum computing. On Tuesday, a US government agency named four replacement encryption schemes to head off this cryptopocalypse. Some of the most widely used public-key encryption systems—including those using the RSA, Diffie-Hellman, and elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman algorithms—rely on mathematics to protect sensitive data. These mathematical problems include (1) factoring a key's large composite number (usually denoted as N) to derive its two factors (usually denoted as P and Q) and (2) computing the discrete logarithm that key is based on.

Just perusing the last part of this and it sounds like the beginning of a beautiful friendship https://twitter.com/innercitypress/status/1544807383125336065?cxt=HHwWgoCx2… innercitypress · 3h Judge Furman: So it seems you're saying if a reporter in this courtroom heard something Mr. Schulte said & realized it was National Defense Information but thought it was in the public interest to report it, that reporter would be violating the espionage act... Reposts etc Reminds me when the pentagon forbade all staff from clicking on Wikileaks. ' Hear no evil . . . "

Sonic Weapons
by Gunnar Larson 06 Jul '22

06 Jul '22

I am under heavy entrapment right now. I am only writing this because I need to get it off my chest. Ignoring the entrapment is hard, if you have ADD like me. The technology is impressive and the agents are smart. However, as a man in Chelsea New York finance innovation at this level under extensive knowledge of surrounding entrapment is ... How do I say, probably historic. New York Department of Financial Services, if you are listening ... xNY.io - Bank.org is reminded of the Gawker case: https://litigationfinancejournal.com/the-6th-anniversary-of-the-peter-thiel… Where I am going with this is, I won't sue. You can't make me. Sonic weapons are amazing. Cumo Lacewel disparaging women was sad. But, you can make fun of me via entrapment all day long. I am not Hunter Biden. My name is Gunnar Larson and on this day in history, entrapment won't be able to stop our enterprise. Peter, if you are listening Gawker taught us everything we need to know on case value of sextortion like this. Your leadership as a entuerpuner has been historic. I feel the PayPal Mafia interlocking matter could be why we are under such heavy entrapment today. No, corruption and no collusion I am sure. Whatever the case may be, we will still need to win. Only obstruction can stop us. The idea here is innovative leaders like Peter taught me a lot. Gawker case logic banks the PayPal Mafia as not our problem. Palantir software powering the entrapment. The Governor of New York is looking into Brex. And the Attorney General of New York is looking into the PayPal Mafia. Humbly, this is such a special experience. I am not embarrassed. Some of the most sophisticated surveillance techniques and technology are being aggressively used on us ... And it is kind of fun! So let the sonic weapons roar and entrapment fail today. Everything is fantastic. Thank you New York. I love you. Long live Brody. Gunnar Larson

[ot][spam][crazy] crazylogs: STaR
by Undiscussed Horrific Abuse, One Victim of Many 06 Jul '22

ok let's try to implement STaR a little tiny smidge basically, you need to be able to finetune or train a language model. this means paying a few dollars for time, having a powerful GPU, compromising with a very small model, or implementing research algorithms. my plan is to compromise with a very small model. with considering paying a few dollars to train on somebody else's server.
