yes a pci-e attack orchestrated via USB 15:38 < chris_99> via thunderbolt 15:38 < nmz787_i> using PyUSB or something 15:39 < chris_99> which isn't usb 15:39 < nmz787_i> that was what they used for a demo 15:39 < nmz787_i> no, the whole point is pci-e packets crafted via USB 15:39 < nmz787_i> thunderbolt was simply the connector they chose 15:39 < chris_99> i just watched

15:39 < chris_99> now 15:39 < nmz787_i> ? 15:39 < nmz787_i> it is pci-e 15:39 < nmz787_i> . 15:40 < nmz787_i> you interface with pci-e using USB 15:40 < chris_99> it's thunderbolt ---> pci-e 15:40 < nmz787_i> ? 15:40 < nmz787_i> thunderbolt simply has pci-e pins 15:40 < nmz787_i> it is a connector 15:40 < nmz787_i> like I said, you could swap the connector to pcmcia 15:40 < chris_99> and pci-e gives you DMA access, via thunderbolt as thunderbolt is more or less a PCI-E type protocol apparently 15:40 < chris_99> that allows DMA 15:41 < nmz787_i>

wroing 15:42 < chris_99> no it's not 15:42 < chris_99> thunderbolt is what permits the attack 15:42 < nmz787_i> you could also use the pci-e to USB card 15:42 < chris_99> nope 15:42 < nmz787_i> i know the dude 15:43 < nmz787_i> :/ 15:43 < nmz787_i> he lives 15 mins away 15:43 < nmz787_i> I see him every so often, he told me about this months ago 15:43 < nmz787_i> he was selling pci-e to USB cards

PCI-E 15:43 < nmz787_i> it is a pci-e attack 15:43 < nmz787_i> orchestrated via USB 15:44 < chris_99> sorry maybe you don't get what i mean, i mean it's impossible to do DMA attacks via USB 15:44 < chris_99> you can do DMA attacks via thunderbolt, PCI-E 15:44 < nmz787_i> you connect a USB cable to your laptop, craft a pci-e packet, send it via USB to the bridge IC, which converts the signals to pci-e protocol and levels 15:45 < nmz787_i> if you want something more prevalent, check out the i2c pins on all video connectors, basically 15:45 < nmz787_i> VGA even has them 15:45 < chris_99> ok so imagine a laptop that doesn't have thunderbolt whatsoever, you're saying you can do DMA via USB 15:46 < nmz787_i> there was a demo on UEFI bios malware from a non-admin windows 8 machine, which then allows you to listen on i2c video pins for signals 15:46 < nmz787_i> the guy had a GSM to i2c dongle then 15:46 < nmz787_i> no 15:46 < nmz787_i> in that case you would need pcmcia 15:46 < chris_99> heh 15:46 < chris_99> so it's not a USB attack 15:46 < nmz787_i> if you didn't have that, then firewire 15:47 < nmz787_i> it not that, then idk 15:47 < nmz787_i> no 15:47 < nmz787_i> it is VIA USB 15:47 < nmz787_i> USB to PCIE 15:47 < nmz787_i> that is all 15:47 < nmz787_i> you then need PCIE exposed 15:47 < nmz787_i> you can trick people who have thunderbolt (lots of people) 15:47 < chris_99> i thought yesterday you meant you could attack a std. laptop, without thunderbolt or anything else exposed 15:47 < chris_99> via USB 15:48 < nmz787_i> or if you have other physical acces install a card in the mobo 15:48 < nmz787_i> oh, no, that's why I kept saying PCIE 15:48 < nmz787_i> and mentioned the USB to PCIE bridge 15:48 < chris_99> yeah i thought the bridge was something you attached via USB 15:48 < chris_99> external 15:48 < chris_99> to the machine 15:48 < nmz787_i> they were basically replicating the NSA stuff that was leaked 15:50 < chris_99> i bought an FPGA PCI-E card to essentially play with that kind of attack 15:54 < nmz787_i> cool 15:55 < nmz787_i> the whole point was that the attack was orchestrated through python 15:55 < nmz787_i> using pyusblib or pylibusb 15:55 < nmz787_i> something like that 15:55 < nmz787_i> rather than needing to learn an FPGA 15:55 < chris_99> oh cool 15:55 < chris_99> not heard of that 15:56 < nmz787_i> also laptops commonly have

I'll take my meat & veggies please. 21:23 < nmz787> that isn't necessarily the best for health though 21:23 < nmz787> re dingo 21:23 < dingo> of course not, but its best for profits for the sellers 21:24 < dingo> what do they care about your health 21:24 < bbrittain> not if people stop eating it though 21:24 < nmz787> sure 21:24 < bbrittain> well, people just need to be smarter? 21:24 < dingo> hehe 21:24 < nmz787> pretty much 21:24 < bbrittain> thats pretty much what all of my solutions come down to... aka not a solution 21:24 < nmz787> makes sense that it will take a while 21:25 < nmz787> everyone doesn't come in here to hear this 21:25 < nmz787> :P 21:25 < bbrittain> are you advocating preaching? :D 21:25 < nmz787> time is evolution's solution... 21:25 < nmz787> idk why that wouldn't still apply 21:25 < dingo> soylent green is people!! 21:25 < dingo> time is the great decider 21:25 < kanzure> it's *other* people 21:26 < nmz787> pressure and selection of the bulk 21:26 < bbrittain> well in this case it is. I don't eat corn, soy, or wheat. 21:26 < nmz787> if it's bad for health well, either smart prevails or we end up with the movie idiocracy 21:26 < nmz787> nuff said 21:26 < dingo> i like the evolutionary theory that mankind will split into two geneticly distinct forms -- a tall, attractive, intelligence class, and a gnome-like ugly lower-class 21:27 < nmz787> you're a speciesist? 21:27 < dingo> it supports the theory that i'll breed with a tall attractive woman :) 21:27 < kanzure> no he's just a nethack player 21:27 < kanzure> it warps your brain 21:27 < nmz787> dingo: lol 21:27 < nmz787> i meant bbrittain you're a speciesist? 21:28 < bbrittain> nmz787: wait. why? 21:28 < dingo> nethack is a lot like life -- its really hard and then you die 21:28 < bbrittain> nmz787: what did I say? 21:28 < nmz787> < bbrittain> well in this case it is. I don't eat corn, soy, or wheat. 21:28 < nmz787> or do you actively get sick? 21:28 < nmz787> affected 21:29 < nmz787> / affected 21:29 < dingo> i developed an allergy to wheat and soy (gluten). sometimes i wonder if my body has a higher IQ than my mind 21:29 < bbrittain> yes 21:29 < bbrittain> not the corn 21:29 < bbrittain> thats just me being crazy 21:29 < bbrittain> and not supporting big ag 21:29 < nmz787> do you like lawns more than corn? 21:29 < dingo> my own theory is the introduction of dwarf wheat, which has ~3x more chromosomes was introduced, and being a typical american boy, i was over-exposed and developed an allergy 21:29 < bbrittain> I like pavement 21:29 < nmz787> corn is just the muscle car of lawns. 21:30 < bbrittain> hahaha 21:32 < bbrittain> but nmz787, I am still confused about the speciesist comment. 21:32 < bbrittain> .dict speciesist 21:32 < dingo> irc specialist 21:32 < bbrittain> oh. 21:32 < dingo> i wrote my own irc client 21:32 < nmz787> it's like racism except across species 21:32 < nmz787> but if you are allergic then it doesn't apply I guess 21:33 < nmz787> it was a joke 21:33 < nmz787> or sarcasm 21:33 < bbrittain> oh. my bad. I've been trying to figure out why that was bad :P 21:35 < nmz787> I mainly just tend not to eat things 21:35 < nmz787> it makes sense that we're still young re: industrialization as a speices 21:35 < nmz787> species 21:36 < bbrittain> so... who hear is making it so I can photosynthesize instead? 21:36 < bbrittain> :P 21:36 < nmz787> idk i still don't know how the pyramids were built... so i'm convinced knowing how to survive an apocalypse is prudent 21:37 < nmz787> so thus farming and diy (which really just means being interested and active in learning) 21:37 < bbrittain> nmz787: lemme help you with that: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/03/080328104302.htm 21:37 < nmz787> (and practicing those knowledge in some way) 21:38 < nmz787> bbrittain: but there are tons of theories 21:38 < bbrittain> riiighhtt 21:38 < nmz787> ctrl-f ing for 'proof' doesn't match 21:39 < bbrittain> "Scholars have found evidence that copper chisels were using for quarrying sandstone and limestone" 21:39 < dingo> so the aliense used chisels! 21:40 < nmz787> the last thing i watched said it could have been an geomagnetic laser-type-thing 21:40 < nmz787> re the purpose 21:40 < nmz787> of the pyramids 21:40 < nmz787> :P 21:41 < bbrittain> dammit. I'm gonna build something _REALLY_ weird for future generations just to fuck with them. like an evil version of long now. 21:41 < bbrittain> best part? hopefully I'll be around to see them being confused about it. 21:41 < nmz787> bbrittain: the oiling of the road sounds cool 21:43 < nmz787> "I usually show the skeptic a picture of 20 of my workers at an archaeological dig site pulling up a two-and-a-half ton granite block." He added, "I know it's possible because I was on the ropes too." 21:43 < nmz787> but googling largest pyramid block weight gives: 21:43 < nmz787> The Tura limestone used for the casing was quarried across the river. The largest granite stones in the pyramid, found in the "King's" chamber, weigh 25 to 80 tonnes and were transported from Aswan, more than 800 km (500 mi) away. 21:43 < bbrittain> pharoah to his people: "We need moar slaves" 21:46 < kanzure> evil long now would just be the anti internet archive, deleting everything 21:46 < kanzure> or a dischordia religion branch about misdating all of your content 21:47 < kanzure> https://encyclopediadramatica.es/Discordianism 21:48 < kanzure> "II - All Discordians have to use the Discordian numbering system. Note that there is absolutely no explanation or tutorial given as to what this numbering system is, thereby making it impossible to obey this commandment." 21:49 < nmz787> idk about impossible 21:49 < kanzure> "Robert Anton Wilson, also known as 'People who actually think this might be true, but don't shout about it'. This makes them the most dangerous breed of all. RAW is regarded to be the king of the discordians, despite having a head size approximating Jupiter. RAW is what all true Discordians aspire to one day reincarnate their sorry asses backward through time into. The last sentence, most likely written by a discordian, is all the evidence ... 21:50 < nmz787> hackers be hackin 21:50 < kanzure> ... you need of the utter gob-smacking fucktardedness of this particular group.
