[18:50] <minasota> What up TN? What's new?
[19:31] <cyberanger> Not too much, just retooling some system images
[19:31] <cyberanger> Tweaking a finnix live iso to have some additional tools
[19:32] <cyberanger> Uhh.....updating gpg keys and I think that's my list for today
[19:32] <Unit193> Updating gpg keys?
[19:32] <cyberanger> If I have time for more, the list is long
[19:33] <cyberanger> Unit193: yeah, not sure how I am going to do that yet.
[19:34] <Unit193> I'd like to switch to a 4096 key, but you know that.  I've wanted to for a while.
[19:34] <cyberanger> Likely for today just extend the expired date for another two weeks
[19:34] <cyberanger> I'm running with a 8192 bit key but I'm being told that has some issues
[19:35] <cyberanger> Plus I'm having doubts reguarding entrophy in some of my older key materials
[19:35] <cyberanger> Nothing major now, but fix it forward
[19:36] <cyberanger> minasota: how about you? ^
[19:36] <cyberanger> Unit193: what's your current one?
[19:36] <Unit193> 2048.
[19:37] <cyberanger> Not as bad as others with 1024 keys still
[19:37] <Unit193> Sure, but in everything else I've deprecated 2048 a while ago, and generally use Ed25519 where I can.
[19:39] <Unit193> And, you know.  The usual, packaging, breaking things, doing things not quite like I'm supposed to, etc. :)
[19:44] <minasota> cyberanger: not much, you know me, curious as ever. Diving into encryption, networking etc. A lot to learn
[19:45] <minasota> Oh, and I finally made an honest commitment to learning Python.
[19:45] <cyberanger> You'll never quit learning it either, a rabbit hole that leads to an abyss of knowledge
[19:45] <minasota> tell me about it...
[19:46] <minasota> I get overwhelmed.
[19:46] <cyberanger> Python, that's something I need to deal with more going forward, programming
[19:47] <minasota> yeah, I wanted to create a program my daughters could use for some of the pen an paper ciphers I've taught them
[19:48] <Unit193> I've messed with both python and ruby some. >_>
[19:49] <minasota> columnar transposition and checkerboard stuff. Fun way of teaching them somewhat advanced math techniques
[19:51] <minasota> A simple Caesar shift can be a fun way of teaching mod base mathematics
[19:54] <minasota> cyberanger: hows the job treating you? Still traveling much?
[20:05] <cyberanger> Pen and paper, presume your talking one time pad mainly?
[20:06] <cyberanger> Or working towards that I should say.
[20:07] <cyberanger> Not sure what job you've last heard about. I've gone from Information Security to Amazon Fufilment to Long Haul Truck driving
[20:08] <cyberanger> To waiting on Amazon to wrap up a background check (I have a conditional offer, when they finish the check I can start)
[20:08] <cyberanger> So with that in mind, not travelling as much lately
[20:13] <minasota> You're a truck driver now?
[20:15] <cyberanger> Not now, now I just hold a valid CDL Class A with Tanker endorsement and valid DOT Medical.
[20:15] <cyberanger> I needed the change for awhile basically
[20:17] <cyberanger> I'll likely add Passenger & School Bus endorsements for the church, Hazmat endorsement for future job prospects (just in case)
[20:18] <cyberanger> Double and Triple Trailer endorsement isn't worth it to me, your tail can have a mind of it's own and to me, that's more unsafe than most hazmat.
[20:19] <minasota> Whats the job with Amazon about?
[20:19] <cyberanger> Likely running around a warehouse for a few months, then running a yard truck until an IT spot opens.
[20:20] <cyberanger> Basically, current plan is simply getting the  insurance and paychecks I need while I figure things out beyond the near term.
[21:31] <cyberanger> Unit193: Why not upgrade your key?
[21:53] <Unit193> cyberanger: Trying to make sure I do it right.
[22:46] <cyberanger> Ah
