	Is July 16, 2017 as a time marker on this video.
	I'm going to step through some subjects here, been having camera problems, maybe battery problems, but so we're moving.
	Half past human is relocating several hours away on the Washington coast.
	We're gonna be up high enough we don't have to worry about tsunamis, so uh no sweat there.
	Very interesting place we're moving to.
	It's a uh retirement slash expand the business um uh space.
	It'll give us a lot more space to get things done and a more congenial environment for um uh moving into new work.
	And so we expect some uh interesting things over the next month as we go through the moving process.
	Uh I heard a lot that lifting and carrying all this 30 years of accumulation uh from our little upstairs to the downstairs and all of the packing of the office and all of that is quite um quite tedious and quite difficult.
	But we'll be done with it in about a month and sort of get back to regular production.
	I'm thinking maybe we can get um uh a small update sometime in October, or excuse me, sometime in August, uh, with a uh uh alter report at the end of September, so for sure before October.
	Um I'm in the EM50, uh, we've gotten it uh repaired, all of its running gear is good, and uh we did it at a small local business over here, uh McClee's uh automotive in uh Olympia, Washington.
	Uh let me tell you, these guys are real motorheads, they know what they're doing.
	We replaced all kinds of old running gear on this 1977 uh beast, and it drives like a brand new truck.
	Uh, it's really cool.
	It's I mean it's I mean it's it's difficult for me.
	It's driving something that's odd because I'm used to an articulated uh truck and trailer, and so the fact that the wheels are back that far makes it a little difficult.
	Uh but I'm I'm getting the hang of it.
	Uh but it's it's nice and sound, it's very uh stable and steady, and all of the old gear is gone.
	Uh so McClee's Automotive and Olympia here did the work, they've got a lift that'll handle something like this uh EM50.
	The reason I bring it up is not only to give them a plug uh but also to bring up the idea of small business.
	I think these guys have got six, seven people working at the at their shop, and uh if if somebody rolled on in and took a month of their time for two of their uh people like I did with this uh rig here, and if they had to pay uh on time to the business, then that puts a real strain on the business.
	They don't have the ability to pay their employees if they're waiting to get paid on an invoice.
	Plus, they've got to lay out money for uh parts and stuff uh before getting paid for use, and so it becomes uh a real issue for the small business.
	This is where populist comes in.
	Populous's uh idea is to move in with the blockchain and do um uh invoice factoring.
	Uh, invoice factoring is where I'm owed a debt as a small business, but I need to pay my employees now, so what I do is I basically put that debt as hock in in hockey as a collateral uh for money now, and the people that are giving me the money now take a small piece of my profit in order to provide the liquidity.
	And it's a it's what the banks do, and it's you know the month-to-month loaning that uh keeps most of the SMEs or small to medium enterprises going in uh the Western republics because they've got to pay their employees, but they don't have the money now.
	And so Populous uh was gonna is doing this with the blockchain.
	They're they're setting up a fair uh trustworthy system without all of the middlemen with all of the um the rake offs and the uh near loan sharking that goes on in the small business factoring.
	And so populous that niche is just gonna go.
	I mean, it is just gonna be hugely profitable.
	As a small business, if I had somebody owing me money, that's the route I would go rather than deal with some of the banks at five and six and seven percent.
	Um just huge cost, and then there's fees on top of that, and you know, you never never figure the fees in on the percentage, but if you do that, you really raise the the percentage rates.
	So, in any event, populist is gonna go really well, or the the niches.
	I can't guarantee on any any given firm, any given company, but populaces uh as a as a community, they're there first, they've got a good approach, and that's gonna be a very well-funded niche.
	Um and be very profitable for those people that have cryptos that want to get into the business of backing invoices.
	Uh, Populous had a good uh approach to this.
	They're using a thing called extensible business markup language.
	This has been in use in Britain since um since I was coding for um British Airlines in the uh in the 80s, since I was writing code then.
	And business markup language um is kind of like HTML.
	Uh you can use it to extract data and put it right into databases and stuff.
	And Populous is smart enough to have developed an interface that allows their um invoicing product to suck out all of the the details through this uh um XBML.
	Uh so um uh I have to apologize, like I say to Populous, because I was unaware that a video of mine was being used in what amounts to kind of an extortion plot, and and that all of the FUD, all of the fear, uncertainty and doubt seems to be soul sourced from the people involved in that.
	So my apologies.
	Uh I personally don't think it's a big deal in terms of it's doesn't seem to me that it's gonna impact the future of populace per se.
	Uh, all of the fear, uncertainty, and doubt is coming from this fight that these people are having with the populist management when they said, no, piss off, we're not gonna pay you money for doing videos.
	Uh or we would pay you money, I guess, for doing videos if we commissioned them, but we didn't, so you know, uh, there you go, guy.
	And uh you're asking too much money anyway, I think.
	Uh so um uh that's just uh that's just where we are with uh with the populist thing.
	Uh uh my apologies again to the community as a whole.
	Um I didn't know that this was going on.
	Uh I won't be participating in stuff like that in the future.
	This brings up something else.
	Uh, this brings up the theft of videos out of YouTube and um other sources and how I'm going to deal with it.
	This one may be one of my very last videos that you'll be able to watch on YouTube.
	And this is because I've come up with a scheme that allows me to get around all of the video theft without involving YouTube or copyright or any of that.
	I'm going to take a programmatic approach to it.
	I'm going to actually control my own destiny on this, and I've come up with a uh uh model view controller um uh a program design um paradigm that will allow me to do this.
	Fundamentally, what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take and create videos uh and upload them to YouTube and all these other places as usual.
	And you'll go to look at them in your browser, and you'll open up your browser and you're gonna see snow.
	You're gonna see something akin to digital artifacts uh representing uh the snow from the 1950s television screens.
	Because what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna have your your browser over here.
	Um can we see that?
	Yeah, gonna have your browser.
	Let's move that ever so slightly.
	There we go.
	Okay.
	Have the browser uh which does the uh display, and we have the server over here with the video itself.
	Um it's gonna stream as usual over to your browser, but your browser is not gonna get anything without having my plug-in.
	And so I'm developing a plug-in.
	Uh, this is why I've got this was an adjunct and a side to getting into the full stack programming and uh mean and uh node and this kind of stuff.
	JavaScript's kind of cool.
	Um you can make it very much uh C-like and uh very tight and very dense, so I kind of like that.
	And there's some kind of tricks I know that I'm gonna see if I can actually make JavaScript do.
	In any event, um, so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna not develop my own codec, but I am gonna take and produce and store my videos uh in an encrypted format.
	Uh it'll be a stream, it'll be readable by any stream processing, but the only stream uh information it'll get without my plug-in is gonna be a representation as I say of a 1950s style um uh snow event in your television.
	It'll be uh nonsensical and not worth watching.
	And so you'll be able to certainly thieve it if you want, but unless they happen to have my unless your potential viewer happens to have my um plug-in for their browser, they won't be able to view this.
	And true, the plug-in won't be JavaScript and so forth, but it's gonna have a couple of quick little hooks in it that will have an approved source aspect of this.
	So uh the the it's not actually a codec that I'm developing, but but we can call it that way.
	But I'm using an old model view controller thing.
	So my software here that actually allows it to decode and display, you know, my ugly old face up here in an image, uh, that controller is gonna check to make sure that you haven't fiddled with the source.
	And so if you're not on an approved source, it's not gonna run.
	It's just gonna say, nope, this is likely a stolen chunk of video.
	Now, technically or theoretically, I mean, this is not um uh this isn't a pair at a paradigm level, this is not really um uh internet uh flavored, so to speak, okay, because I'm having to restrict access.
	But the reason I have to restrict access is because I'm getting too much shit from people stealing my videos, and not from them.
	I'm getting the the problem from the people who watch those videos and then get hold of me and say uh blah blah blah blah blah, and I've got to tell them no, you're looking at something that's 10 years old, you know, that they've stripped out identifiers or they've chopped it up to make their own uh you know they've cut and spliced it and put it together to to put out their own agenda using my words, and it wasn't me, I didn't do it, it wasn't on my site, and people don't understand that it unless they get it on my site or at somebody else's approved site.
	So say that um I did an interview with um Greg Hunter.
	If you're not seeing it on Greg Hunter's site or through an uh a YouTube uh link from my uh channel to Greg Hunter's site, then they may have indeed chopped it up for their own own purposes and edited this, and you'll never know.
	Now, a lot of these people are simply stealing it, relabeling it, putting up on their channel to try and make some money off of the clicks uh because they're trying to make money through advertising.
	And I understand, guys, I'm I'm not opposed to that.
	I don't make any money off the advertising myself.
	I have to monetize my videos to get them into the SEO stream in a particular way, because if you don't monetize, you're not indexed in the same manner.
	Uh you're a second class or third class or fourth class video if you're not monetizing them.
	And even if they demonetize the thing, it still gets it flipped over into the monetized video um uh search.
	Uh so it's some it's worth doing just to be able to up your search level, right?
	Because otherwise you're relegated off into the into the corral, you're off into the far pasture here of YouTube and stuff, and so I have to monetize.
	But I don't want everybody else stealing the videos, uh, not because I I'm trying to prevent them from making money off of my image, because I just don't give a shit.
	And if they were actually out there simply promulgating it and it didn't blow back on me in terms of people seeing old stuff or stuff that's been chopped up and and a new agenda put with my words, I wouldn't care that they're making money off of my ugly old face.
	I'm not using it for that purpose.
	They might as well.
	Um, you know, I own the image.
	I went ahead and copyrighted that and trademarked and that kind of shit, just so that I could sue people if I had to.
	Um, but uh uh you know, I don't try and make money off of it that way.
	That's not my point, it's not my goal.
	But I'm pissed and tired.
	I'm an old guy, I'm tired of having to spend and waste uh time dealing with old information being recirculated, rechopped up by someone trying to make money in this new now.
	And as a result of that, I've decided, well, I can either stop doing videos and let it all die off on its own, which I'm very tempted to do that, um, simply because videos are a pain in the ass to do.
	I mean, if you really get into it, it takes a lot of time here.
	I had to, you wouldn't believe what I had to do to do this one in the process of all the moving.
	Uh I'm lucky the EM50 is back or it wouldn't have happened.
	Uh, but in any event, here's the deal.
	The the uh codec approach that I'm gonna take, uh, I'm gonna release that, guys.
	I'm gonna release the the um the whole process here, the whole suite of little software tools that will encrypt your uh video stream before you upload it to YouTube, and then the the um uh controller uh that will uh trigger the plug-in on the uh browser that will allow it to be decoded.
	And so um Greg Hunter, you know, Sarah Westall, all of these really good interviewer guys uh will be able to do this and not have their material stolen and reused on YouTube, and so it'll it'll really cut down on a lot of clutter on YouTube.
	YouTube may do things to me, okay.
	I may get strikes against me, or who the hell knows what's gonna happen uh when I do this because I'll be uploading uh a video that will meet all of the specifications required by the stream uh that they deal with, uh, but it'll be non-intelligible to humans without my special plug-in that you'll be able to download off of my site, and um and that plug-in is gonna have certain elements in it, as I say, to protect my source and so on.
	Uh so and it I hate having to do this pain in the ass.
	Uh interesting bit of coding.
	I mean, I I'd done some uh stream stuff before and dealt with television transmissions that were being encrypted between um broadcast studios in Seattle in in Olympia, and that was kind of cool, and so I'm taking uh uh a deeper look at it, and I sort of enjoy that part of it,
	but it's a pain in the ass to be diverted over into this uh area uh just because of all of the or just because of the stance that YouTube took because we didn't used to have to deal with this, and then YouTube decided anybody and everybody could monetize any fucking thing that they wanted to be able to steal and put up there, and YouTube was out of the uh policing their own platform business.
	And so, if that's the case, we'll see just you know what kind of an issue it it becomes with YouTube when we institute um, you know, uh uh Cliff's decoder ring here for uh watching his videos and see how they react to this.
	Um, you know, because it'll of course do things like I want, like it would strip out commercials and all of that kind of business as well.
	Um so uh so that was uh so that's that part.
	Let me get this out of here.
	I'm gonna need this space.
	Okay.
	So uh moving populous apology uh video anti-theft crypto uh encryption uh decoder ring, and then the last thing here before I go and edit this and then upload it and go to all this trouble and get it online and stuff, is the cryptos, okay.
	You're it's like uh chill people, chill.
	This is a natural part of this crocodile tooth stuff I've been telling everybody about.
	We're on the back side of this tooth.
	The these crocodile teeth look like um I mean they're like uh they've got a gum line and the and the whole thing, and there's gaps between teeth, and we've got one that that looks like this kind of stuff, and it went way the hell up, and then it crashed, crashed down, and it looks like that kind of thing, and it goes on up, and it goes up like that, and it crashes down again, then it's back up again, and then it crashes down.
	And they call these things double tops, by the way.
	Um I don't, you know, I mean it's obvious why they call them that.
	They're somewhat significant, significant, I guess, to chartists.
	I don't know really what the significance is much myself, but I'll show you where I think we're at.
	Okay, so uh this is sort of our pattern over these past few weeks.
	We're we're in this area down in here, and we've been seeing we're on the back side of this crocodile tooth, like I was saying, and we've been seeing this kind of action here, kind of like that, and these little things are the meant to be the upward and downward spikes of the daily action.
	Okay, and so if I've got to do this, trying to translate this out of some basic linguistic notes here.
	Okay, so we're sort of like this, and maybe it's a little bit more lumpy right around in here, and so we're right over here, and what I think is happening is kind of like um there's this fellow tone vase.
	Uh his head is gonna explode if he hears my name mentioned too many times.
	Um and I think he's a chartist.
	Um, but um uh he's Been reasonably right on a lot of these things in terms of his price projections in a uh a much closer to the moment scale than I normally deal with.
	And so uh you may want to check it out.
	He's got better better representations than my crude little chart here.
	But my linguistics are telling me that we're about to get to that part of the tooth uh that is this like little gap here that is between the teeth, and this actually should probably come down more like that or something.
	I'd actually have to see the the real chart of um, and this is would be Bitcoin, okay.
	Bitcoin to USD.
	And but in any event, so we're right in here, and it's not gonna keep going down, it's not gonna plunge back to huge levels like this.
	The the data shows that we're gonna get into this kind of a humped thing, we're sort of humped up like that, uh, and that's building the gum line, and that's actually how it describes it in the data.
	I mean, why we have teeth and uh you know, all kinds of oral um uh structure uh uh human or animal uh language around the the Bitcoin and other crypto um movements, I don't know.
	I mean it actually called it crocodile teeth, had a number of different teeth references within the data, probably because people are gonna be very chart-oriented and maybe I I don't know.
	In any event, that's that's our um uh our metaphor or our paradigm that we're dealing with, and so what we're actually getting into at this point is the building of this gum line here.
	Now, the the interesting part for me is that if you look at it in one particular way, like a fractal sort of thing, like the chartists do, and I'm sure tone vase has got an entire structure, you know, all kinds of interesting, um, very precise language to describe it all that I have not got a clue as to what about it because I've never gotten into this sort of stuff.
	But from my viewpoint, this gum line is on the back side of one tooth, and it builds prior to the front side of the next tooth.
	And these are what the front side of the teeth look like in this area here, right?
	And this down here would be uh a building gum line again, if that makes any sense.
	So we're gonna replicate this here, only it's gonna be much more expanded and much deeper insofar as the descriptions we get out of our data.
	And it is true, I've had to shut down the data flow to my site here, but I've got the servers running uh because we were really smart.
	We had a had a few shuckles um uh from our crypto uh work, and I was able to invest it into some new server equipment, which we needed anyway.
	We got this stuff up and running, had a hot so hot swap kind of a situation with the software, dual processing on one, I goer shutting down the other, and he can take his time to move the other hardware and then bring it back in as a backup and an adjunct to our processing capability.
	So we're so the servers are still uh functioning, even though all of my um receiving and analysis part is all shut down as we get ready to make the move.
	So just before I did this uh shutting down over this last day, I'm not 100% disconnected as you see because I'm putting up this video, but I mean in terms of the the usual background processing I run it.
	Um just before shutting it down.
	I went through and looked at all the linguistics and it tells me we're into the gum line and that we can project.
	I am projecting.
	I I haven't gotten into the analysis yet, but I'm projecting based on the size of the gum line that we'll hit the front of the tooth sometime in September.
	And so uh my data is actually showing 28288 uh USD to the Bitcoin to BTC and our time period within the data sets seems to be around uh the 24th of August.
	So if that's the case, then it's suggesting that that is our um uh base uh from which the next tooth is constructed.
	And you see chart guys, some so somebody go in, you know, uh fine-tone vase and poke in with a stick and give him a some more and ask him to do the projections for the uh size of that tooth, if I'm correct, and it would be of course proportional to the previous tooth, only bigger, right?
	How much bigger?
	I don't know, I don't know, I don't do chart stuff.
	Uh but I and I don't have any numbers out of the data yet.
	That's what I rely on is my linguistic data.
	But basically, the front of the tooth is out over here somewhere, and you see, get out of the way there so we can see that.
	So as you can see, I'll swap over.
	So as you can see, we're out here, and the front of the tooth is up there.
	And that's our uh that's my understanding of the of the place that we're at within the cryptos.
	And like I say, if you were to go and get a um uh get tone vase and poke him with a stick and offer him us some more and and a little cup of milk, you know, um uh and say, hey tone, can you talk to me about this?
	He might be able to tell you, well, you know, if Cliff is correct about this, there's some kind of a chart relationship that says we should be at X number of dollars up there.
	So now, in terms of the time here, I haven't done the factoring on this, but like I say, I think we'll be into that sometime in uh September ish.
	So data set said 2888, and it appeared as I shifted model space back and forth within our little tiny viewer that we were about the last week in August there, around the 24th or so.
	Uh and that's the best data I've got at the moment, and and I'm moving, and I hurt a lot, so I don't need this shit.
	Uh but uh everybody freaking out over prices, it's like this is just what happens in cryptos, people.
	Uh, you know, there used to be a saying, and we're talking about a couple of years ago.
	Uh, there was a saying, if you haven't lived through uh at least one bitcoin crash, you're not a bit coiner, you know, unless you've a lot of people freak out when Bitcoin goes from a thousand to a hundred, you know.
	Uh they lost it when it went from 40 down to four.
	Um but you know the data says this stuff is solid, it's going, and and look, we're developing whole industries around the blockchain.
	Uh this is not a flash in the pan, it is a wild, wild west.
	It's something you're gonna have to really um harden up to emotionally.
	If you're if you're um uh have a tendency to be nervous, well, you know, maybe you need to take drugs.
	I don't know, guys, but it's not that it's not that it's not that terrible because we're going up this way, we're not heading down that way.
	I don't know where our our inflection point thing here is.
	Uh I think we're close to it.
	The data suggests that we're gonna do uh a rounding um uh you know on the 24th or 25th of of July, there's gonna be some interesting news about Veritasium, apparently.
	Uh, if I'm reading the data correctly, uh we're gonna get a nice bit of um crypto pop as a result of some crypto news.
	I happen to think from the data sets, I'm interpreting that I think it's for Veritaceum.
	Uh okay, so so we've done uh moving cliffs moving to the coast, uh populus.
	I apologize again, guys.
	I didn't know that shit was going on.
	Um nothing I can do about it, I'm sorry.
	It won't happen in the future.
	Um the reasons it won't happen in the future is I'm gonna start really monitoring um uh who's doing what with what I'm saying from this point forward and use my video codec or my my cliff's decoder ring for his videos uh to prevent people from stealing them in uh in any kind of a fashion.
	That'll might take me a month or so to to get out and test.
	Uh so you know, might roll it out later this fall.
	It's gonna be kind of cool though.
	Um anyway, so there's that, and then then there's the crypto flow.
	So uh that's it.
	Sorry, it took so long to get through this, and now I've got to go off and do work.
	More more hauling and uh shifting.
	But I actually think I've got a really good moving solution, so I'm gonna go and check that out today.
	Rather than me driving trailer loads of stuff several hours each way.
	Okay, guys, um that's it, I guess.
