The Crypto Anarchist Manifesto

Wed, 04 Nov 2026 08:35:00 +1300

Computer technology is on the verge of providing the ability for individuals and groups to communicate and interact with each other in a totally anonymous manner. Two persons may exchange messages, conduct business, and negotiate electronic contracts without ever knowing the True Name, or legal identity, of the other. Interactions over networks will be untraceable, via extensive re-routing of encrypted packets and tamper-proof boxes which implement cryptographic protocols with nearly perfect assurance against any tampering. Reputations will be of central importance, far more important in dealings than even the credit ratings of today. These developments will alter completely the nature of government regulation, the ability to tax and control economic interactions, the ability to keep information secret, and will even alter the nature of trust and reputation.

For those that don’t know, Pterodactyl is a free, open-source game server management panel built with PHP, React, and Go. It provides a user-friendly web interface to create and manage game servers and other applications, while running each dedicated server instance in its own Docker container for security and isolation. It uses pre-built container images called “eggs” that bundle all the necessary files and dependencies for the target application or server to run.

The Problem With Being “Nice”

Wed, 04 Nov 2026 00:00:00 +1300

Most of us are probably told to be nice when we are growing up, however being nice usually results in not being true to ourselves, not standing up for our needs and our interests. This behavioural pattern is often rooted deep in our childhood and formative years, such as growing up in a challenging home environment, perhaps with an unstable parent and feeling that you had to be the diplomat and peacekeeper in the household as was the case with me, and this pattern can carry on well into adolescent and adult life without one even realising it till much later when it manifests itself problematically.
