David Nixon: Back to the MAC (Part 2): The Signal in the Noise

"I had heard from one of my regular meeting attendees that the MAC addresses with a packet interval of 2000ms belonged to people. … So I filtered for those. Then I recalculated entropy. And suddenly, the noise dropped away.

Among the filtered results, three MAC addresses stood out immediately. All three shared not only an entropy score of exactly 2.754, but also an identical broadcast interval of 2000ms — and that’s where it gets strange. When I overlaid their bitfields, something impossible happened: Bits 2 through 6 in Byte 1 formed a rotating 5-bit field. In MAC #1, the value was 24 (11000). In MAC #2, it rotated cleanly to 7 (00111). In MAC #3, it landed on 10 (01010). That’s not drift. That’s sequencing. Each of the five bits flipped twice across the three addresses — no randomness, no entropy drift, no byte overflow. It’s as if the system was stepping through a page index — mechanically, predictably, and in perfect sync.”

sounds testable 👍👍

geez this gonna be a big move #NGU

Exit on iOS resolves, I can’t replicate now 🤦‍♂️ but after a while something is fucky with audio/video vs images, and it’s sticky so once corrupted every object then has that same audio in the background, progress bar and all as a video, but it’s actually a static image in the kind1

every fucking image in #damus has the audio of an unrelated video 🤪 #cache #local #shenanigans nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s

cache/local-relay? iOS only seeing it the last week or so but haven’t been on this client in a while

It’s better to do both, but you may learn more and reinforce knowledge by doing first and reading second 🤷‍♂️
