Fri Mar 27 02:34:35 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> fun fact : you can acutally hand-load the entropy pool.
Fri Mar 27 02:33:44 UTC 2015 <asciilifeform> (very scant, but real, 'meat entropy' from human devices, etc)
Thu Mar 26 20:06:24 UTC 2015 <asciilifeform> (do not read this to take that a battery-backed clock is any kind of source of entropy, also.)
Thu Mar 26 20:04:45 UTC 2015 <asciilifeform> bitcoind does not need entropy for anything
Thu Mar 26 20:04:26 UTC 2015 <asciilifeform> mod6: it has -no- source of entropy other than i/o
Tue Mar 24 16:11:52 UTC 2015 <asciilifeform> i'll emphasize that it isn't a 'won't work in the cold' so much as 'entropy relying on sram effects degrades ungracefully'
Tue Mar 24 16:07:00 UTC 2015 <assbot> Logged on 15-07-2014 20:23:09; Rassah: In our tests, it still had plenty of entropy at 0ºC, but it smoothly went down to zero entropy around -20º. Maybe we should put warning stickers on these things saying "Caution - Chaotic System. Do not use in low entropy environments above the Arctic or below the Antarctic circle, unless exposed to external sources of energy" :)
Tue Mar 24 15:21:26 UTC 2015 <nubbins`> ^ packaged w/ mycelium entropy thingy
Mon Mar 23 20:32:38 UTC 2015 <assbot> FS#34580 : [rng-tools] Default configuration of rng-tools adds no real entropy to /dev/random ... ( http://bit.ly/1Hsiq01 )
Sun Mar 22 19:30:22 UTC 2015 <funkenstein_> came with a free difficult to decipher t-shirt that says "entropy this ease freedom"
Sun Mar 22 19:28:44 UTC 2015 <funkenstein_> got my mycelium stuxnet entropy in the mail yesterday
Fri Mar 20 19:28:08 UTC 2015 <danielpbarron> i doubt 1) your entropy generating abilities 2) your not telling a secret when a hot iron is inserted into your body abilities
Fri Mar 20 03:18:29 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> "Extropy is a proposed opposing concept to entropy. As entropy decreases , signifying more order, so extropy would increase in the manner of negentropy."

Sun Mar 08 19:14:14 UTC 2015 <thestringpuller> 10 years from now when phuctor starts detecting broken entropy systems
Tue Feb 24 22:43:01 UTC 2015 <ben_vulpes> there's something about working in lisp that seems to reduce the speed at which entropy chews apart a webdev project.
Wed Jan 28 20:46:23 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> nubbins` nah this won't work. the usb actually steals entropy from pc neh ?
Wed Jan 28 19:17:30 UTC 2015 <asciilifeform> can embed canned entropy in the eeprom but obvious caveats.
Sun Jan 25 20:10:19 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> "to deny entropy that final satisfaction".
Fri Jan 16 20:24:15 UTC 2015 <joecool> mircea_popescu: i was unaware of the entropy issues on signing until after this was implemented, until then i had assumed it was only important to generate the keys themselves with sufficient entropy
