@bea @cwebber mediagoblin.

@bea @cwebber Groups for nediagoblin?

@paulfree14 I prefer ssh terminal chat. Only use Discord because I have to for webcomic underdogs.

@rtsn I mean for that matter, was forward secrecy somehow not possible for stuff like autokeys and adgvx?

@overflow Yes dont want to get laid wheb you're dead.

@NathanHawks_xyz I cant contribute, but I can at least retoot.

Hey #Seattle! Looks like I'm going to be temporarily #homeless this winter because of a procedural snafu. Can I rent a tiny sleeping space and shower rights in a place that doesn't stink, super cheap? I get housing again 2 months after the #snafu (at Social Security) resolves, which will be, honestly, any day/week/month now. Can you help me out cheaper than the cheap end of AirBnB? PS Won't be using you as storage beyond toiletries, some clothes, and whatever other square feet we can negotiate.

@rtsn What is it that makes the autokey cipher weak?

@rtsn So what benefit does quantum computing add. Wouldnt that make quantum cryptography redundant?

Suppose also a scenario where all the computers in the world went offline do to an emp.

Pen and paper ciphers arent completely irrelevant.

@rtsn But what if the session key itself is intercepted but a brute force attack? And couldn't the session key be made stronger by being made truly random? I didn't know this was already assumed in the session key.

@rtsn The downside is while it makes brute forcing irrelevant, key theft is more likely

@rtsn Hope my idea made sense: encrypt plaintext with one time pad, then encrypt this with my public key. When I recieve it, I decrypt with the private key, and then with the key for the one time pad.

@rtsn My books are weird though, one combines cyberpunk and ancient astronauts. And military industrial complex.

@rtsn My stories as follows are: (Note these are my short stories, not my nine+ novels) Alissa, The Satanic fencer The Intergalactic Headswoman The Uploaded Psychic For Elizabeth And Annabelle My Two Loves, and finally Distortions Of A Changed Planet.

All of which blend some elements of horror or gothic romance in an otherwise Cyberpunk was Post Cyberpunk setting. The last one is the exception, being Space Apocalyptic.
