15:28.40Funkeh`nevcairiel since you didn't care for the OpenBSD complaints: https://www.blackhat.com/us-18/briefings/schedule/#tlbleed-when-protecting-your-cpu-caches-is-not-enough-10149
15:28.53Funkeh`shit's going down in august
15:31.01nevcairielthe OpenBSD article was just full of nonsense and FUD, that doesn't mean there arent underlying problems. Side-channel timing attacks are really hard  to predict
15:31.50Funkeh`I disagree, it's just that the issues haven't been fully disclosed yet
15:41.05nevcairielside-channel attacks will keep popping up for the next years, its not something you can just stop with some changes, outside of going back to really simplistic cpu designs,  but we had that already and it was slow
15:41.31nevcairielthey are based on the fundamental designs of all our CPUs, which shows when even ARM is affected by some of them
15:42.54nevcairieland assuming "all" are already known and j ust not disclosed seems like it underestimates the future creativity of security researchers
15:43.10Funkeh`It was affected by like 1.5 of them, a lot of it has been Intel skimping out just to push performance
15:43.21Funkeh`same with AMD, think it was affected by 2
15:43.50Funkeh`The talk will be interesting in regards to the viability of HT in the future, it may even put an even bigger focus on more cores
15:44.04nevcairielif you have 16 cores, do you really need HT anymore? =p
15:44.14Funkeh`not really that's my point
15:45.16nevcairieland intel is the biggest target, everyone is going to focus their exploits on them first, with so many i've read in the initial statements "it is unknown if AMD is also affected", with very few did news pages ever bother to re-visit with further testing, and I cba to go research on my own :D
15:45.59Funkeh`In regards to the most recent sure
15:47.45Funkeh`It will be interesting to see the benchmark comparisons once intel start bringing out their designs with fixes for said attacks
15:48.12nevcairieland personally I doubt that Intel (or anyone) sat there and was like, hey this could be exploited to extract information, but lets do it anyway. The concept of side-channel attacks against all of this shit is  a development of the last two or three years, the designs it attacks much older
15:49.06nevcairielanyhow time to go out fetch some dinner

16:01.25nevcairielWhat I do wonder though is if Intel re-engineered Ice Lake, because that microarchitecture has been finished for a while but they couldn't release it yet due to their process troubles
16:05.12znfHT always felt gimmick-y anyway
16:05.41znfI understand the reason for it, but for actual multi-threaded apps, there's not much gain to be had there
16:05.59znfie: if an app actually knows to use all 16 cores to its fullest, 32threads is basically the same thing
16:06.02znfor slower :P
16:06.43znfI've tried some CPU crypto-miners on my 12 cores/24 threads setups
16:07.04nevcairielThere is plenty applications that benefit from it greatly
16:07.06znfusing 24 threads with the miner software was always slower than using exactly 12
16:07.21znfno doubt about it
16:07.27nevcairielMore so if you use heterogeneous computations, is. Doing different things
16:07.34Funkeh`looks like the "steam universe" group is destroying everyone in this steam mini game lol
16:07.46nevcairielIf you only do a simple thing all the time on all threads, then HT doesn't benefit you
16:07.52znfI think the best case is when multiple apps compete for CPU power
16:07.58nevcairielBecause it relies on unused hardware in the cpu
16:08.19nevcairielBut if everything does the same thing, they also want the same hardware
16:08.22znfFunkeh`, isn't that the "default" group for most people anyway?
16:08.33Funkeh`no clue
16:08.53znfI remember reading something about it
16:09.04znfStanzilla's bot failed me
16:09.13znfit stopped sometimes
16:09.47znfoh, look, Stanzilla's cheat now has a python version, too
16:12.58Stanzillathe php version is still better
16:13.04Stanzillait recovers from timeouts now
16:13.44znfhow the fuck am I only lvl9?
16:13.49znfI had it running all night
16:13.52Funkeh`that's the max
16:14.19znfbut not even fully leveled
16:17.12Stanzillahttps://nin.lnk.to/BadWitch
16:21.57Funkeh`"this script will not work until you have joined our group"
16:22.07Funkeh`um sorry but your group is dead
16:23.21nevcairielJust hack that nonsense out of the script :p
16:23.48Funkeh`looking at it now seems to look for something with an id of 32
16:32.51AndolsScript, game?
16:34.32foxlitsteam summer sale has an associated minigame
16:34.36foxlitthink flash games in '02
16:35.18foxlitplaying which awards... colored pixels, dunno?
16:36.33foxlitsince '02 flash games aren't terribly amusing, people are botting the flash game rather than actually playing it.
16:36.34Funkeh`you get entered into a contest every time a planet is "finished" to win free games afaik
16:36.47Funkeh`but the process of playing gives you free "items"
16:36.52foxlitPersonally, I think your time is better spent going outside and looking for pennies on the sidewalk.

16:46.38Funkeh`countdown until they separate in 3, 2, 1
16:47.29znfI think it's a onion-y website
16:47.35znfnobody is /that/ retarded
16:48.12Funkeh`never heard of it before so probably trash

19:03.07Funkeh`yeah this script feels like it's really slow at playing the game?
19:03.20Funkeh`can't really tell since there's no visual output
19:03.46Funkeh`but I see why you were curious znf
19:04.41znfThe python one?
19:08.01Funkeh`no
19:10.13znfThere is output in the php one tough
19:10.28Funkeh`talking about visual output
19:10.41Funkeh`i.e. seeing the game
19:14.41znfAh
19:14.56znfInstant Apps are so weird
19:15.07znfWonder how they work exactly
19:17.08Funkeh`i turned that shit off]
19:17.11Funkeh`no thanks
19:19.04Funkeh`dumbest idea around that i could browse to a random website and have some "app" running
19:22.14znfI've only seen vimeo doing ut
19:22.15znfIt
19:22.20znfAnd what Stanzilla linked
