[13:49] dzho: so full disk aes 256 crypto is susceptible to plain text attacks? [14:02] thafreak: I don't know that it is. [14:03] but saying "I know of no such attack" != "there are no such attacks" [14:04] the general idea here being that one might easily infer the OS a system is running, and so have access to quite a load of known-plaintext. [14:28] "Modern ciphers such as Advanced Encryption Standard are not currently susceptible to known-plaintext attacks." [14:29] from wikipedia [14:29] plus i always use cbc [14:29] well, a kpta isn't really great against most implementations [14:30] so stop worrying me dzho with terms i'm not familiar with :) [14:30] if you take pure rsa, it will work, because an "n" will always resolve to the same thing (with "n"^m % pq) [14:30] see http://blog.pault.ag/post/2175430707/the-rsa-algorithm-humanized-sorta [14:31] gotcha [14:31] but most algorithms also shift the text with some sort of passphrase on top or so [14:31] and because it won't come out to the plain text it's self, you can't tell when you've "cracked" it [14:32] in fact, some algorithms even let you "sign" the plaintext [14:33] back to work [14:52] Hello all. Long time no see [14:56] o/ [14:56] oh hey, it's the masked one [15:04] how you guys been doing? [15:04] MaskedDriver: livin' the dream, how are you? [15:04] canthus13: the game [15:04] paultag: about the same. Living in MI now [15:05] nice :) [15:05] took a few months after I stepped down a ReLoCo lead in C-bus before I finally made the move, but it gave me extra time to really look for a position up here [15:06] nice :) [15:07] how are things going in the OH LoCo? [15:20] well :) [15:21] how's MI, MaskedDriver? [15:21] good [15:21] MI is aight I guess... Missing the roads in OH that's for sure lol [16:05] you been back home any time recently paultag? [16:06] MaskedDriver: where home == cleveland? [16:06] no where home == out east [16:06] MaskedDriver: I live out east now [16:06] moved back about a year ago [16:06] paultag: ahhh [16:07] lol wow... it's been awhile hasn't it? [16:07] 617 4 lyfe [16:07] MaskedDriver: a bit :) [16:07] I should plan for attending OLF this year [16:07] it always falls the weekend my girlfriend go to Mackinac Island [16:07] ah [16:08] paultag: bah. you got me with The Game. :P [16:08] fuuuuuuuu [16:08] :D [16:08] again, when will this senseless aggression end?!? [18:04] paultag: no AC? [18:04] jrgifford: I'm working from home right now [18:04] i'm just in a place with very intermittent internet [18:04] but the AC broke @ where we woork [18:04] work [18:04] i'd rather be without AC. :P [18:05] \o/ [18:05] I'm at work, kampfy [18:06] I had like a month with pretty much nothing to do with my work from home thing, and today had a call with the owner saying "um, the folks who were supposed to be getting you up to speed totally dropped the ball, we have SO MUCH you could be doing, and in about 2 weeks we can discuss the idea of you being full/mostly full time for us" [18:06] :D :D which would be amazing because even 30 hours per week for them as a contractor would net more than my current gross pay (which is pathetic, but still :D ) [18:06] :) [18:07] I am excited :) [18:12] I have been sort of dead to the world on a lot of stuff due to current job sucking my will to live. so...apologies to everyone on that -_- [18:13] heh. [19:56] Not really sure what the hell is going on, but it seems ubuntu-precise's libvirt/kvm stuff is a pile of WTF [22:16] Cheri703: good to see you back in the channel [22:16] thafreak: I don't know, I never had much use for all the whizbang stuff for virtualization [22:17] I cargo-cult copy some xen .cfg files and go from there [22:17] haven't dug so far into kvm [22:18] paultag: you and your "kampfy" :P [22:19] Cheri703: Yep, as he said, nice to "see" you around.
