heres a more recent groff implementation of it the macros: https://linux.die.net/man/7/groff_ms prob not what you're looking for, you prob want to get ahold of the orig nroff/troff files

the implication for me at least is a lot, and yeah a lot more has come to exist since so shrug still nothing like using a troff/nroff from 1984 I spose

sorry I forgot the purpose of the link was to provide nostalgia but here I go with all of the format and conversion paths... sorry :(

although I believe groff itself has the ability to just straight generate pdf
uranium235 | 5 years ago | on: UNIX Text Formatting Using the -ms Macros (1984)
if you want to convert to pdf some of the steps involving postscript can be skipped using something like xelatex

it desperately needs it, 2c system mainly idle, but running opengl compositor, lots of alpha, etc: load average: 3.01, 2.56, 2.74

There really should be some way to accomplish this with IPFS, which imho is better suited for it given that it's multi-purpose, cloudflare has a gateway, and you can register EthDNS names for IPFS hosted content.

and it's not the fastest thing but in theory it's simple enough that you can just do something like this:
ipfs add test.asc added QmX1yKeerXb9vSYoQXcZuuw1QFTu5UxDCec4hY9htjRYE7 test.asc
and retrieve it https://cloudflare-ipfs.com/ipfs/QmX1yKeerXb9vSYoQXcZuuw1QFT...
if you have an ENS name you can access it this way: https://cloudflare-ipfs.com/ipns/atmarketplace.eth/

I want to add to that the ethereum name service, https://www.increaseo.com/eth-domains-ipfs/ could also potentially play a role in a means to efficiently and reliably distribute public keys in conjunction with IPFS? Seems worth considering at least.

I think it might be a good idea to use something like IPFS to distribute keys. Now that cloudflare seems to want to support it officially, the only exception to why they might not are the same kind of lawsuits that brought down the pirate bay but cloudflare has opted to offer content blacklisting/cache refuse in their terms of service so I'm not sure how that's going to work out, but so far since 2018 nothing seems to have changed. I'm not really sure what their takeaway is though, it must provide them some benefit otherwise it's just a waste of their money to provide a gateway service. I'm not sure how well it's going to scale once people start building on it and actually use it more.

Yeah I mean there's that but we're trying to do stuff that such nihilistic sentiments never could appreciate. There's a lot of truth to why these kinds of things like fips 140-2 level 3 are a thing even though yeah if you weild them foolishly they won't do you any good but I don't know. I just could never trust any of the stuff Intel marketed mostly because of the systematic poor quality of hardware accompanying their shit
uranium235 | 6 years ago | on: Intel-Funded Study Finds AMD Procs Incl. Ryzen Vulnerable to Side-Channel Hack
Just saying if you want like fips 140-2 level 3 sec you should probably talk to the black suits instead of going to Linus tech tips
uranium235 | 6 years ago | on: Intel-Funded Study Finds AMD Procs Incl. Ryzen Vulnerable to Side-Channel Hack
Maybe check with modern sparc or power or arm if you want hardware guarantees for always on and really secure if it's worth it to you. personally, I don't have any real experience other than what I've seen in tech specs but I'll bet at least one of them has something more competent than tcg, which ought to have been the first indication for a lot of people that x86 platforms are kind of half assed
uranium235 | 6 years ago | on: Intel-Funded Study Finds AMD Procs Incl. Ryzen Vulnerable to Side-Channel Hack
Yeah I saw this a couple of days ago this is unsurprising other than it didn't come sooner. While everybody was booing Intel when rizon came out go figure something else is wrong with x86. I still don't think I'm gonna run out and buy a power / Talos setup, I'm not even looking to get good fpgas to run riscv. Fuck it, the thing that's gonna get you hacked is something else really lazy that you probably did.
