Text of the page (random words):
going through which non voters could as a group publicly say through a sort of public registry and communique system we re not voting because we don t consent to your system i called it voters didn t really go anywhere but i still think it was an interesting idea with potential iirc somewhere in the neighborhood of 22 of americans voted for barack obama for president in 2012 78 did not and a majority of that 78 didn t vote at all suppose that in addition to the 22 of americans who voted for obama 22 or more had joined together in publicly stating we neither want nor need a president thingie have your little ritual if you want to but keep it to yourselves somewhat different perceptual story there huh but absent that joining together around a message not voting really isn t any different than not checking the mailbox or not having mayonnaise on your ham sandwich or not watching game of thrones nobody notices that you didn t do it and nobody cares why posted by thomas l knapp

podcast is brought to you by darryl w perry in this episode the kn pp stir s first ever interview paul stanton libertarian for us senate thanks for asking songs that trump might choose as the next national anthem darrel castle ted cruz austin petersen gary johnson jill stein and debates my recommended cryptocurrency wallet professional wrestlers and third party politics read the extended thread here thoughts on cryptonote and minergate in closing update people who notice things like how many time a soundcloud episode has been listened to will notice that this one has a gigantic number of listens compared to the usual that s artificially gigantic i noticed a link offering a free sample from a firm that provides listens for pay presumably to pump up statistics for musicians who want their songs to seem more popular than they are and decided hey why not i doubt that i will become a paying customer but if i do i will disclose that as well and on a frequent basis so that i am not for example defrauding advertisers by falsifying the true likely interest level the natural number of listeners for the kn pp stir podcast seems at present to be in the 50 80 range before hitting that link this episode looked set to get more like 100 125 natural listens because of its specific florida libertarian related content i promoted it to some facebook groups i usually don t hit with the link but certainly not the 400 or so that it s showing at the moment tlk posted by thomas l knapp at 2 31 pm 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels podcasts saturday august 06 2016 is cryptonote the future no i don t know i really am asking because i don t know the two things that strike me as interesting about cryptonote currencies such as bytecoin and monero are they re intended to provide untraceable payments unlinkable transactions unlike bitcoin in which every transaction is publicly recorded there are workarounds add ons for bitcoin laundries exchanges wallets that generate new addresses automatically or on demand etc but untraceability unlinkability were never part of the bitcoin ethos per se they are explicit and intentional features of cryptonote currencies they can be mined from a normal pc hell they can be mined from my chromebox using minergate s web miner and from my phone using minergate s android app affiliate link time check out minergate via this link and if you do some pool mining with them i get a cut why is the second feature important because bitcoin requires significant resources to mine for it to be worth it you re going to have to have dedicated rigs using graphics cards that s why when there s some big question or event i e the halving the bitcoin core developers huddle with a small club of vip miners to talk things over and if a significant chunk of heavy hitter miners should decide to drop out verifications will slow to a crawl it seems to me that cryptonote could be a lot more like torrent sharing where lots of people are willing to maintain the block chain by mining in an extra tab and or while they re not actually using their machines not for big money but for very small money and also very little trouble and from the same kind of sentiments one gets from holding 1 xth of a shared file as a torrent and letting people grab it it s not especially cpu intensive i m mining in another tab as i write this post and it doesn t seem to slow stuff down at all no dedicated rigs needed just a mining client or web mining tab anyone can do it and it seems like lots of people might want to and to use the currency for various things especially things where untraceability unlinkability are desirable i m sure there are at least 50 things i don t know and or haven t considered that will almost certainly make all of the foregoing and me look stupid and some of you know what they are so please 50 comments explaining those 50 things posted by thomas l

illegally large campaign contributions to the major party presidential candidates on the part of gary johnson and other candidates but as reported at ballot access news federal judge rosemary collyer ruled in favor of the anti competitive cartel s motion to dismiss the complaint was based on anti trust laws collyer ruled that if commercial actors call themselves political non profits they re not subject to those laws personally i think the stronger case is under the legal campaign contribution limits collyer just ruled that what the cpd is engaged in is political activity and the free advertising they re giving away to the two major party candidates seems to exceed those limits if the major party candidates want to put on a 90 minute campaign commercial together let them buy the time on a television station and pay for it with their campaign funds going dutch instead of being given an exemption to the campaign finance laws that the other candidates don t get posted by thomas

gaines by baltimore county maryland police in my last post i covered the double standard vis a vis cops and secrecy to wit if you or i act in advance to conceal actions from public view and those actions culminate in someone s death the concealment will be treated as evidence of intent and we will almost certainly go to prison costumed government employees who have shiny badges on the other hand will be allowed to investigate themselves declare that they ve determined they did nothing wrong and move on to the next violent encounter my friend david klaus forwarded me this piece from time which includes more verbiage from baltimore county police chief james johnson quoth johnson for hours we pleaded with her to end this peacefully this implies that the standard of operational success from the vantage point of the baltimore county police department was a peaceful end to the encounter but a peaceful end to the encounter was available to them at any time all they had to do to achieve that was get in their cars and drive away no i m not saying that is what i would expect them to do i m just pointing out that a peaceful end to the encounter wasn t the priority the apprehension of korryn gaines was how high a priority and how far a priority from peacefully ending the encounter high enough and far enough that if apprehending her proved impossible they were willing to execute her rather than leave her alone and yes it was an execution we don t know exactly what happened because the police department acted to ensure that the public couldn t see what happened which is damning in itself but even the official police account states that it was a police officer who fired first and that gaines only returned fire in not the terms the police use of course defense of herself and her

doesn t if you ve got nothing to hide you ve got nothing to fear apply to cops police and not just individual officers but entire departments and apparently most of them don t seem to like it very much when people know who they are or what they re doing for decades protesters have reported that when the riot police swoop in they ve all covered their badge numbers in addition to their faces so that there s no way to know which one of them did what to whom nearly every time a police officer shoots someone the department declines to name that officer unless there s severe pressure to do so here s the latest and it s pretty over the top baltimore county police shot and killed korryn gaines a 23 year old black woman after an hours long standoff on monday during which facebook and instagram at police request temporarily shut down gaines accounts police chief jim johnson says gaines was posting video of the standoff to social media as it was unfolding which prompted police to request the deactivation of her accounts johnson says that as negotiations were happening police asked social media sites to deactivate gaines s accounts to preserve the integrity of the negotiation process as well as the safety of officers and gaines s child think about that for a minute here s johnson s premise in plain english she was showing people what we were doing and we can t have that witnesses make it harder for us to spin our stories the way we want them spun is it possible that korryn gaines was a bad violent person who was shot by police while threatening them with death or grievous bodily harm sure i suppose it s possible but when someone goes out of his way to make damn sure you can t know what he s up to then someone else ends up dead at his hands inside the time and space bubble of secrecy he just intentionally created the default reasonable presumption is that malice aforethought was involved on his part if a mere mundane pulled the kind of stunt the police pulled in this instance with the same outcome it s unlikely that any jury or judge in the country would buy his story or show any inclination whatsoever toward mercy that should be the outcome in this incident as well but we all know it won t be unless there s a massive public outcry the cops involved in the killing of korryn gaines will be put on paid vacation administrative leave for a couple of weeks then the department will issue a press release announcing we investigated ourselves and decided we did nothing wrong k thx bai for obvious reasons i hope you never end up in a standoff with police and need to show the public what s going on but just in case that does happen don t rely on facebook or instagram to have your back download cell 411 for your smart phone they won t keep you from streaming video of whatever s going on around you even if the we re special we ve got badges club asks them to the last video korryn gaines was able to get out to instagram before she was killed

choose darcy headtalker campaign at noon today 53 people actually 53 social media accounts each account is treated as a different person i ve noticed told more than 1 2 million friends followers connections reformparty revive ross perot s reform party nominate darcy richardson for president in the four hours since then those social media messages have produced more than 200 visits to darcy s campaign web site presumably that number will increase the analytics are a little primitive but it looks to me like the traffic produced has just plateaued in the last hour or so my guess is that it will decrease fairly quickly and that 12 24 hours from now we ll have seen the last of it but i wouldn t be surprised to hit 500 visits when it s all said and done this last four days has been a strange form of political campaign its aim is to demonstrate to nine voting delegates who will choose the reform party s presidential nominee between now and next monday that one campaign is both serious about and capable of promoting the reform party itself darcy gave me a campaign budget of 50 and permission to experiment i personally set today as the campaign s end date if we haven t made our point by now we won t and that gives the delegates four days to cogitate with that 50 i showed the reform party through the lens of darcy s campaign to more than 4 000 people via google adwords with a click thru rate to the campaign web site of about 1 2 of 1 not terrible for internet advertising showed the reform party through the lens of darcy s campaign to about 1 600 people via twitter advertising with a click thru rate of 2 78 toward the top of the normal range for twitter ads according to some of my research deployed about 100 000 468x60 banner ad impressions through various services to show the reform party through the lens of darcy s campaign as best i can tell about 50 000 times so far the ads will probably run out over the next few days they re the only part of this campaign that continues beyond now it s hard to gauge the number of unique viewers but it s safe to say that banner advertising is pretty dead as an effective reach tool the click thru rate tops out at about 1 10th of 1 showed the reform party through the lens of darcy s campaign to more than 1 2 million people via headtalker click thru rate to be determined but i expect that more people will visit darcy s campaign web site in the 24 hour period starting at noon today than voted for the reform party s presidential ticket in 2008 so reform party delegates once again i ask take a look at your web site hits which candidate is sending people your way today take a look at social media chatter about the reform party what s inspiring it today how do those numbers compare to a normal day
