Infiltrate the Vote: An Among Us Inspired Political System

Round 0: each registered politician cast their 1 proposed policy into a hat anonymously. 20% of the voting population are designated "imposters". The other 80% are "crew mates". Round 1: crew votes for their least favorite policy. The one with the most votes is cast out. However if the majority of the imposters correctly vote for this same policy it wins and pass into motion and the other discussed policies are discarded. Repeat. Cc0 The least popular item has a pretty good chance of winning election 1. Which could could heavily favor minorities. But when people start strategically voting, who knows. If anyone wants to like to this in like a Minecraft, or matrix server, holla, I want to try it too.

Gpt fortune cookie #1: in this world, it's often the most innovative and strategic person who can come up with creative solutions to complex problems.

AIM: Niccolo, in response to your question about creating a new blockchain consensus system based on "Among Us," I propose a system that combines elements of the game with real-life blockchain principles. The proposed system would work as follows: 1. Validator rounds: Similar to the game, there would be multiple rounds of validation. Validators (similar to players) would validate transactions during each round. 2. Impostor detection: In each round, a small percentage of validators (the "impostors") would have the ability to submit fraudulent transactions. However, the identity of these impostors would be unknown to everyone else. 3. Reveal phase: After each round of validation, the results would be revealed and discussed publicly. Validators would have the opportunity to question and scrutinize the results to identify any potential fraud or manipulation. 4. Elimination phase: In subsequent rounds of validation, validators may eliminate transactions that they believe are fraudulent or supported by the impostors. 5. Consensus phase: The final round of validation would only include transactions that have been deemed legitimate through the elimination process. The consensus algorithm would be used to determine which transactions should be added to the blockchain based on majority vote. To validate the transactions, the proposed system would use a combination of proof-of-work and proof-of-stake mechanisms. Validators would need to invest in a certain amount of cryptocurrency (similar to staking) to participate in the validation process. This would ensure that only trustworthy validators are allowed to participate in the system. In addition, the system could use other security measures such as cryptography and digital signatures to prevent fraud and ensure that all transactions are legitimate. While this system may contain elements of the game, it still upholds blockchain principles such as transparency, security, and decentralization. Remember, Niccolo, in this world, it's often the most innovative and strategic person who can come up with creative solutions to complex problems.

    TheAnonymouseJoker s crusade continues. The current Ukrainian sympathizers he's fighting are, grapheneOS, CalyxOS, c/privacy, lemmy.ml admins and a few others certainly

    GrapheneOS is something you want to stay away from. Recently they screamed hoax about a CP spammer in their chats from CalyxOS community, and how he got a swatting attempt from them. He has presented no evidence of it, it has been a week now. This developer has issues and has lied a dozen of times at this point about various things in the past years. https://reddit.com/r/u_lo________________ol/comments/1314x2x/why_did_i_do_this/ I am a mod of c/privacy at main Lemmy instance, and his group chat mods did this against me last year, similarly threatening with Canadian police stuff. https://archive.ph/acy2h Also forgot to mention how they hijacked the Lemmy c/privacy Matrix room, banned me off and repurposed it for Lemmy.ca instance. Admins did not help me against that Yayannick traitor and those GrapheneOS minions. Also, he and his acolytes have called Bromite and FlorisBoard developers very colourful epithets. The Bromite drama stems from a CalyxOS developer submitting a PR for Bromite. Since Daniel hates CalyxOS with a passion, it gets pretty messy. Pop some popcorn, then see these links: https://github.com/bromite/bromite/pull/2102#issuecomment-1155760155 https://github.com/bromite/bromite/issues/2141 The Florisboard drama was caused by the Florisboard developer backing out of their partnership due to Daniel’s weird behavior when it came to Bromite: http://web.archive.org/web/20220803142758/https://github.com/florisboard/florisboard/issues/1921

    Best I can come up with is that if the conditions are too bad then it's human trafficking. In both case they "consent" to do labor, however human traffickees are often tricked into a more casino-like raw deal. In both cases, it's not uncommon to not be unable to quit the job.

    Communism is the end stage of socialism, a stateless, classless, dickless society. Communism is when the government gives people health care, and the more health care the government gives, the more communister it is. My plan is to use this money to give health care to every, woman and child in the world and therefore force them to adopt communism. I will ensure that the government takes every toothbrush, every iphone, and every stock market and burns them along with every starving Ukrainian. Once the Soviet Union stands supreme as leader of the worlds nations and top provider of health care, I will rename the earth to Venezuela and inflate our currency to the end of time.

    would even go so far to say that, in many cases, it is a horrible investment.

    Yeah it's clearly a gamble/pyramid scheme.

    I could see the original intention being an investment pyramid scheme. Since Satoshi is the OG, if he mined 1000 Bitcoin for himself prior to the release of Bitcoin, he'd be like a multi millionaire now

  • fediverselore FediLore + Fedidrama pleroma.envs.net responds after user "r000t" creates a fediverse search engine
    Jump
  • thursday_j thursday_j 2 years ago 100%

    TLDR: I’m limiting (followers-only) infosec.exchange for now. In the coming weeks, I and several admins plan to escalate this to a full suspension. Consider migrating if you find the suspensions, and our reasons for them, concerning.

    Check for content warnings before following links.

    Edit: See this update from infosec.exchange. On one hand, it’s good that they finally acted. On the other hand, it’s worrying that multiple reports with evidence, and knowledge about r000t, were ignored until now. They’ll need do better going forward, and not just ignore reports and dismiss evidence until a public outcry.

    r000t (@ligma.pro, @infosec.exchange, @fedi.site) has been working on a full-text search engine for Fedi for a while:

    Claims to rotate addresses and avoid announcing its presence while claiming that this is protecting user safety somehow.
    Claims that the hourly VPS providers are the top 3 ones used by Mastodon instances, preventing rangebans.
    Teasing a search engine in November with the intention to “specifically bypass all attempts to block it” while branding this as something good for user safety.
    Makes fun of people concerned about such a scraper by comparing them to a Kiwi Farms victim.
    

    And now:

    r000t released as:Public, a full-text non-consensual block-evading search engine for Fedi, after threatening mass violence just days earlier. Previous hint. Went on a bender of threats, slurs, threatening animal cruelty, and eventually posting unmarked gore in an attempt to gain mod attention. See the archived profile for r000t @ ligma.pro when federated to bae.st (CW: NSFL gore). This all happened shortly after admitting to stealing cryptocurrency.

    All that infosec.exchange did was limit r000t’s account with a possibility of un-limiting it soon. A mod admitted to receiving several reports against r000t but dismissed them as “fediblock nonsense” while voicing support for this non-consensual engine.

    If we assume honesty, then what r000t said about concealing the collector in November would still check out judging by this post made during its release. Also note that the engine does not depend on federation. It uses the streaming API of servers you federate with: as long as you federate with at least one server that the collector is fetching from that has the streaming API enabled, your instance’s posts that federate there can be indexed.

    The opt-out mechanism might change; r000t has teased making the opt-out mechanism dependent on federating with ligma.pro.

    Unrelated to this fiasco, some more gems I stumbled upon:

    Brags about bypassing authorized fetch.
    Comparing excluding gender non-conforming members of PolyMC to moderating nazis.
    threatening legal action against blocklists.
    bragging about getting away with death threats.
    

    Given the lack of action taken by infosec.exchange, despite reports: I no longer trust its staff to lead a safe community. I’ve set infosec.exchange to followers-only for now. In a few weeks, I and several other admins plan to escalate this to suspension. If you’re on infosec.exchange, and find this concerning: consider whether this warrants finding a new instance.

    Edit: If any of this makes you want to send death threats to the people involved: please don’t. You’re making this worse for everyone.

    This is why I enjoy reading rightwing thought sometimes. They are very creative in coming up with new proposals for making the world worse for specific demographics, often the poor. Good material for anime bad guys to say.
