Anarchism and punk, with contemporary emphasis and global spread.

https://anarchistnews.org/content/anarchism-and-punk-–-call-chapters Whilst anarchism has been well recognised as punk’s primary political companion, it is of course not the case that all punks are anarchist, nor that all anarchists are punk. Even within the 40+ year entwinement of punk and anarchism, the relationship has been far from straightforward. In the coming together of two such multifaceted entities, fractiousness is to be expected ...'

MESH the Planet
by professor rat 26 Nov '20

26 Nov '20

Local yokel anarchists may want to avert their eyes since some things - once seen - cannot be unseen. Like this fascinating visualization of meshed planet with all-encrypted-all-the-time internet, fully backed up and remailed on the hour and regular back-ups made to repurposed server-farms ( yes, Jeff, Mark, Bill and Co, we are going to ' nationalize ' all your infrastructure for the UN - United Networks ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peirce_quincuncial_projection#/media/File:Pei… "Whose gonna pay for the ocean coverage? " - I hear you say? The same people who thought they could salt away trillions as ' Tropical Plunder ', also bootstrapping effects. When our global UBI is up and running I conservatively estimate a regular double-figure growth rate in the world economy. Now if global peace, plenty and social-justice offends you then try killing yourself before CYPHERPUNK 2027 arrives. And may your God go with you.

Coming from you that's a compliment, Darkness, but it is also the case that if you have successfully minimized war then it follows with a geometric logic that you could start to minimize politics. Anarchists minimize nationalist electoral politics by design. No anarchists have been expected at the national polls since 1848. Now, can we get YOU on the record with uncritical support for both Assange and Nick Szabo? Silence assumes assent.

Prediction markets are already outperforming pollsters and forecasters

AugurProject · Nov 23 Great overview of prediction markets and the election! "Even at their clunky, relatively illiquid, and immature stage today, prediction markets are already outperforming pollsters and forecasters." Quote Tweet Charles Rubenfeld @Crubenfeld · Nov 23 I wrote about how prediction markets beat the pollsters/538 in this election and why their future is bright. https://charlesrubenfeld.com/the-prediction-markets-were-right/…

A superimposition of anarchism in a digital context!

"... well...grarpamp belongs to your school of 'thought' : accept the pentagon's machines and you will be saved. Buy your musko-nsa brain implant today! as to zen, he's on your team too, but in a somewhat roundabout way. Zen believes in trumpo the saviour, and trumpo is just a jew puppet, so that's the jew team. Your team. .." No. I'm only accepting that machine the pentagon rejected - PAM FutureMaps - I've also been trying to APster both Musk and the head of the NSA. Wake me when Gramps ever does anything but whine like a little bitch. As to Darkness - are you sure you don't have him mixed up with Gramps? You make a lot of mistakes. I've just spent four years trying to assassinate Donald Dumbfuck. Do you enjoy lying or are you just stupid? Probably just another lying, stupid Channer-type, Kochsucker Troll from a KGB sewage farm. Amirite?

Cryptocurrency: Monero Zcash Etc

Come talk when you have a privacy cryptocurrency > whose "blockchain" (total disk space needed regardless > of what you call it) grows NOT as function of number > of tx (users transactions), but only as function of number > of UTXO (users accounts) in some form of state database > updated by consensus over transactions and the db itself. Sounds like a Chaumian ' Trusted Node " and not kosher for cypherpunk purposes. But maybe our Lord Master-Chief-High-Royal-Eunuch-Leader Grampus can translate it for us. He's so fucking smart.

> https://www.cbs.dk/en/the-press/news/why-untraceable-cryptocurrencies-are-h… Renwick, R., & Gleasure, R. (2020). Those who control the code control the rules: How different perspectives of privacy are being written into the code of blockchain systems. Journal of Information Technology. doi:10.1177/0268396220944406 23 pages. Monero (statistical) and Zcash (homomorphic) are first generation and just like Bitcoin (none) will die under the pointless weight of their own ever growing terabyte++ size blockchains. Come talk when you have a privacy cryptocurrency whose "blockchain" (total disk space needed regardless of what you call it) grows NOT as function of number of tx (users transactions), but only as function of number of UTXO (users accounts) in some form of state database updated by consensus over transactions and the db itself.

IT speaks volumes for the bone-headed stupidity of this Pommy Moron that he's willing to support Assmange and Nazi-Nick-Szabo in late 2020. I would say " Sit down man, you're a bloody tragedy ", but he has these hilarious comedy routines on the side. Like paying a lot of attention to a secure programming language for smart-contracts to run on his side-chain. Champagne comedy. Secure in his corporate Safety Room with ...Israel Shamir and the Nazi Hungarian! Cue the Blockstream " Downfall " sketch. Give the people what they want.
