Wed Dec 04 09:37:11 UTC 2013 <Vexual> enthalpy and entropy
Wed Dec 04 04:07:42 UTC 2013 <asciilifeform> in fact, bonus points if you use a known turd for an entropy source
Wed Dec 04 04:05:54 UTC 2013 <asciilifeform> helps if you have a reasonable entropy source, but not essential for this application.
Tue Nov 26 02:28:32 UTC 2013 <Apocalyptic> <kakobrekla> hows the entropy on that // pretty bad
Tue Nov 26 02:28:23 UTC 2013 <kakobrekla> hows the entropy on that
Thu Nov 21 05:53:46 UTC 2013 <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: i'm still unclear on where the hell entropy is supposed to come from on that thing.
Tue Nov 19 04:09:14 UTC 2013 <mircea_popescu> so cardano rng board was successfully populated, there's like oscilloscope illuminated randomness and general entropy pouring out of it. i'll be making a post with pics and whatnot once the lot of you stop hawking over the exchange.
Wed Nov 13 01:29:14 UTC 2013 <nubbins`> hipster jealousy is too uniform to be a good source of entropy
Wed Nov 13 01:28:42 UTC 2013 <BingoBoingo> asciilifeform: It seems like I might have to see if I can find the script that generates entropy from hookers and microphones from the trilema comments.
Wed Nov 13 01:28:08 UTC 2013 <Vexual> gather entropy from hipster jealousy
Wed Nov 13 01:27:36 UTC 2013 <asciilifeform> none of this helps unless the system is actually programmed to gather entropy from said manipulations.
Wed Nov 13 01:25:54 UTC 2013 <asciilifeform> entropy generation is the inevitable bottleneck here.
Wed Nov 13 01:18:51 UTC 2013 <asciilifeform> dollars to doughnuts, it's blocking on entropy milking
Wed Nov 13 01:16:09 UTC 2013 <BingoBoingo> I'll also try mashing the keyboard to generate some entropy
Wed Nov 13 01:12:39 UTC 2013 <asciilifeform> chances are, it's waiting for keystroke entropy.
Wed Nov 13 01:12:23 UTC 2013 <BingoBoingo> asciilifeform: Key generation is still continuing. Either the entropy is really good or it is relying too much on virtual memory to try to accomplish this which... I think defeats the purpose if there are going to be a bunch of hard drive writes of the process.
Sat Nov 09 14:05:13 UTC 2013 <asciilifeform> where the hell is a luser supposed to get 512kb of entropy
Sat Nov 09 13:53:10 UTC 2013 <mircea_popescu> it's def entropy starved.
Sat Nov 09 13:52:56 UTC 2013 <pankkake> BingoBoingo: can you monitor cpu usage? if it's idle it could be entropy starved
Sat Nov 09 13:49:31 UTC 2013 <BingoBoingo> mircea_popescu: Well, I'm trying a 128 Kbit key on it. If it can be air gapped... At least it seems to have decent entropy so far.
