WEBVTT

00:12.500 --> 00:16.800
In three, two, one, real liberty.

00:46.240 --> 00:49.760
Everyone is out there prepping for the Hollywood apocalypse.

00:50.620 --> 00:53.800
Zombies, explosions, high speed chases.

00:55.140 --> 00:58.180
Nobody's prepping for the right one.

00:58.860 --> 01:00.060
The boring one.

01:01.240 --> 01:04.980
I look around and see the crypto bros hoarding Bitcoin on

01:04.980 --> 01:08.880
USB sticks, convinced that when the shit hits the fan,

01:09.480 --> 01:10.660
they'll be the new kings.

01:11.740 --> 01:16.020
Here's a reality check in a true hard reset.

01:16.600 --> 01:17.940
The grid goes down.

01:18.800 --> 01:21.960
And when the grid goes down, there is no cloud.

01:22.480 --> 01:25.800
There is no blockchain and there are no servers.

01:26.240 --> 01:27.660
Your ledger nano s.

01:28.060 --> 01:31.460
It's just a very expensive, useless rock.

01:33.000 --> 01:36.060
So why are we here today talking about high tech Liberty

01:36.060 --> 01:37.900
Suites and local AI stacks?

01:39.080 --> 01:43.080
Because we are living in the golden hour, the brief window

01:43.080 --> 01:44.420
where the lights are still on.

01:45.120 --> 01:48.020
We aren't building this tech to live in the matrix.

01:48.580 --> 01:53.200
We're using this software as the pump to fill the physical

01:53.200 --> 01:57.480
tank, your brain and your body, your bookshelf.

01:59.440 --> 02:03.720
We use the tech now to extract the knowledge we need

02:03.720 --> 02:04.800
to survive later.

02:05.480 --> 02:07.160
The software is the pump.

02:07.780 --> 02:09.380
Your mind is the weapon.

02:10.280 --> 02:56.500
Let's build the forge because it helps if I push the button.

02:57.780 --> 03:01.960
Hello and welcome back to Liberty tunes on real Liberty

03:01.960 --> 03:02.440
media.

03:03.140 --> 03:05.980
Go check out real liberty media dot com.

03:06.540 --> 03:08.940
Check out Liberty tunes.org.

03:09.260 --> 03:10.500
I don't say this enough.

03:10.880 --> 03:13.860
You can get all these shows if you're listening live and

03:13.860 --> 03:16.880
you want to hear more and you like the music that I

03:16.880 --> 03:21.780
play and produce, you can get all that at Liberty tunes.org.

03:23.100 --> 03:24.540
Actually, let me take it back.

03:24.620 --> 03:27.260
It's casto pod dot Liberty tunes.org.

03:27.860 --> 03:29.920
There you can subscribe to the podcast.

03:30.260 --> 03:38.040
I've got I kind of what the what the noodle teased the

03:38.580 --> 03:41.780
teased it a lot last week as to what I've been doing.

03:41.980 --> 03:45.100
I've been building this thing called.

03:46.880 --> 03:48.460
The Liberty suite.

03:50.220 --> 03:53.040
And I do plan on releasing this.

03:53.340 --> 03:59.800
The code for it and all of the stuff that's built into it.

03:59.820 --> 04:04.240
But what it is is basically it's up to like the 10 or

04:04.240 --> 04:10.300
11 tools now that I've built using my local AI.

04:12.880 --> 04:15.960
And I'm going to go over and tell you exactly what it's

04:15.960 --> 04:18.860
all about today during the show.

04:19.140 --> 04:20.500
I mean, we've got two hours.

04:21.220 --> 04:24.320
It may not take the full two hours because I'm going to do

04:24.320 --> 04:28.160
the best I can because this is an audio show and trying

04:28.160 --> 04:33.240
to explain it through audio so that you can convey it is

04:33.240 --> 04:34.720
going to be a pain in the ass.

04:35.640 --> 04:40.220
So I am once I get everything done and everything's working

04:40.220 --> 04:40.600
great.

04:41.440 --> 04:47.040
I will start doing some videos and throw them on YouTube

04:47.040 --> 04:53.540
and peer tube and bitch you and wherever to show you how

04:53.540 --> 04:57.220
to do this on your own links to where you can find the

04:57.220 --> 05:01.580
actual source code so you can take it, copy it, change

05:01.580 --> 05:11.140
the file names and some pass in the in your in the code

05:11.140 --> 05:13.260
and you can do it for yourself.

05:14.220 --> 05:15.920
So anyways, check this out.

05:17.680 --> 05:22.980
I kind of totally screwed up my script by saying all that

05:22.980 --> 05:25.480
it was, but anyways, this is actually what I wrote down

05:25.480 --> 05:26.080
for the script.

05:27.640 --> 05:29.680
Let's get right into the meat of it.

05:29.680 --> 05:32.520
We're watching the hijacking in real time.

05:33.560 --> 05:37.520
The world of the day or the word of the day is sovereign.

05:38.680 --> 05:43.020
Now, do you and me people who actually value liberty and

05:43.020 --> 05:46.120
freedom sovereign means something very specific.

05:47.280 --> 05:49.200
It means you answer to no one.

05:49.600 --> 05:55.060
It means you own your destiny, but in the tech world words

05:55.060 --> 05:59.320
are just skins they wear to sell you the same old chains.

06:00.610 --> 06:04.700
We've been analyzing the corporate board view of this term.

06:05.950 --> 06:10.080
We looked at the top pitches from Dell Zedora Zedara.

06:10.600 --> 06:16.300
Sorry, and the venture capitalist set a 16 Z and people

06:17.210 --> 06:21.340
their definition of sovereignty is purely geopolitical.

06:21.340 --> 06:24.760
It has nothing to do with you.

06:25.660 --> 06:31.160
Take Dell and their eye on tech propaganda and to them sovereign

06:31.160 --> 06:34.220
AI is about data residency.

06:34.980 --> 06:38.420
As long as the server farm is physically located inside

06:38.420 --> 06:41.660
your country's borders and likely owned by a government

06:41.660 --> 06:45.620
approved partner, they slot the sovereign sticker on it.

06:46.720 --> 06:51.080
When you have a Zedara, they don't even hide it.

06:51.340 --> 06:56.440
They pitch sovereignty explicitly explicitly as compliance

06:56.440 --> 06:58.160
for governments and banks.

06:58.940 --> 07:03.400
Since when did sovereignty become a synonym for doing exactly

07:03.400 --> 07:05.100
what the regulators tell you?

07:06.780 --> 07:07.820
And it gets worse.

07:08.800 --> 07:14.720
You have a 16 Z talking about foundational model diplomacy.

07:16.560 --> 07:21.280
They view AI as the new oil of resource for nations to hoard

07:21.280 --> 07:23.560
not for individuals to own.

07:24.740 --> 07:28.780
This is the strategy and it's a classic capture in the loop.

07:29.260 --> 07:33.740
Big tech realized the word sovereign is dangerous, but because

07:33.740 --> 07:35.440
because it implies freedom.

07:36.300 --> 07:41.080
So the pivot is to hijack the term they want sovereign to

07:41.080 --> 07:45.700
mean the king or the state owns the AI.

07:47.080 --> 07:50.540
Now, if you're wondering what started all started me on this

07:50.540 --> 07:59.440
particular thing is I ran across a video from the YouTuber.

07:59.620 --> 08:01.360
He's really into AI.

08:01.640 --> 08:04.220
I don't know if he actually works in the industry, but

08:04.220 --> 08:06.320
he's really cool and he built this thing.

08:06.900 --> 08:07.320
It's the.

08:08.900 --> 08:13.700
Through the term out there, sovereign AI and if the thing

08:13.700 --> 08:19.320
he built is a AI chat that small enough to runs on your

08:19.320 --> 08:22.480
phone locally, local AI on your phone.

08:22.940 --> 08:24.900
And I was like, dude, this is pretty cool.

08:25.080 --> 08:28.060
And he attached the term sovereign AI to it.

08:28.460 --> 08:34.600
My dumb ass went to YouTube and typed in sovereign AI as

08:34.600 --> 08:40.400
a search term and I pull up pages and pages of results of

08:40.400 --> 08:45.540
sovereign AI and not one of them is talking about actual

08:45.540 --> 08:46.480
sovereign AI.

08:46.840 --> 08:50.640
They're talking about the state or the government or

08:51.320 --> 08:55.640
a company owns the AI and not the individual and

08:55.640 --> 08:58.740
individuals have no right to own the AI.

08:59.640 --> 09:06.280
It belongs purely in the hands of the government and the

09:06.280 --> 09:11.240
companies and it's like, um, no, that's not sovereign.

09:13.040 --> 09:19.360
So that's what got me started on this and this little rant

09:19.360 --> 09:23.980
that I have to say something about because it's when you

09:23.980 --> 09:31.520
hear sovereign AI either go and remind them that what they

09:31.520 --> 09:34.200
are saying is sovereign is not sovereign AI.

09:35.180 --> 09:39.340
What they are saying is that it's centralized and controlled

09:39.340 --> 09:40.140
by the government.

09:40.960 --> 09:43.120
There is nothing sovereign about that.

09:47.960 --> 09:51.280
We need it to mean the individual owns the AI.

09:52.780 --> 09:55.560
So here's here's my bonehead view.

09:56.100 --> 09:57.080
The true definition.

09:58.040 --> 10:02.920
It's simple, not your device, not your intelligence.

10:05.060 --> 10:09.460
I have a litmus test for this is it's the unplugged test.

10:10.040 --> 10:13.700
If you can't unplug the internet cable from the wall and

10:13.700 --> 10:16.140
still run the model, it's not sovereign.

10:16.840 --> 10:17.380
It's a rental.

10:19.240 --> 10:23.800
What Dell is pitching as sovereign cloud is just a digital

10:23.800 --> 10:27.580
person prison cell that happens to be built on your own soil.

10:28.300 --> 10:29.680
You're still a surf.

10:30.740 --> 10:34.960
You just have a local landlord instead of a foreign one.

10:36.080 --> 10:40.540
So the action item here is to reject the state sovereign

10:40.540 --> 10:41.120
narrative.

10:42.000 --> 10:46.660
If it runs on a cluster, you don't have rude access to

10:46.660 --> 10:49.660
it's just digital surf them 2.0.

10:50.300 --> 10:53.240
They're building an AI factories for the state.

10:53.980 --> 10:57.720
We are here to build mineforges for the individual.

11:01.280 --> 11:04.400
So if we reject their cloud, what do we replace it with?

11:05.540 --> 11:10.360
We have to shift our mindset from being a consumer of a

11:10.360 --> 11:12.080
good, you know, a consumer of tech.

11:12.240 --> 11:16.920
You have to be bring it to being an industrialist of

11:16.920 --> 11:17.400
the mind.

11:18.300 --> 11:21.920
The holy grail here is total automation without the leash.

11:22.840 --> 11:28.260
We're moving away from reliance on big tech, API's Google open

11:28.260 --> 11:29.840
AI, anthropic.

11:30.140 --> 11:30.760
Why?

11:31.380 --> 11:33.820
Because those API's can be throttled.

11:34.570 --> 11:38.080
They can be censored and they can be turned off the moment

11:38.080 --> 11:40.460
your opinions become problematic.

11:42.090 --> 11:43.920
To do this, you need iron.

11:44.320 --> 11:45.880
You need the hardware stack.

11:47.060 --> 11:52.160
So let's talk about the rig that runs my uncle bonehead empire.

11:56.700 --> 11:59.540
Okay, first, I've got big bitch.

11:59.800 --> 12:03.280
Big bitch is not currently in operation right now.

12:03.360 --> 12:05.980
It's waiting on a on a power supply.

12:07.560 --> 12:12.840
And I plan to upgrade the GPU on it in the future, but

12:12.840 --> 12:18.960
for now, it's it's going to be the main GPU rig.

12:19.480 --> 12:22.820
It's it's going to handle all the actual inference.

12:23.580 --> 12:27.900
When I need a model to think to analyze to crunch data, it's

12:27.900 --> 12:28.880
going to go to big bitch.

12:29.660 --> 12:31.140
She does the heavy lifting.

12:31.400 --> 12:34.620
So I don't have to wait in line for a cloud server.

12:35.680 --> 12:39.820
But what I have right now are two other machines.

12:40.640 --> 12:43.580
I have only bitch in a one bitch too.

12:44.440 --> 12:49.340
In case you didn't know this little fun little fact, I name all

12:49.340 --> 12:56.580
of my computers something bitch because with my experience

12:56.580 --> 13:00.220
with computers, every single one of them is a bitch.

13:03.700 --> 13:09.000
It's and it's usually the I usually go with like the name

13:09.000 --> 13:11.560
of the distro and then bitch.

13:12.540 --> 13:15.900
So like I've got open mandrake on both of these machines.

13:16.120 --> 13:20.060
So I've got oh, and bitch one and well, oh, and bitch and

13:20.060 --> 13:20.900
oh, and bitch too.

13:22.100 --> 13:24.600
And they're there, you know, they're both running open

13:25.620 --> 13:26.100
mandrake.

13:26.200 --> 13:29.080
Big bitch is named big bitch because of the case.

13:29.080 --> 13:32.080
Not necessarily because she is a big bitch.

13:33.660 --> 13:36.420
The case is freaking huge.

13:37.920 --> 13:41.300
And it's like takes up half my desk.

13:41.740 --> 13:43.600
So that's why I named it big bitch.

13:44.300 --> 13:45.380
Anyways, I digress.

13:46.120 --> 13:48.220
Oh, and bitch and oh, and bitch too.

13:48.340 --> 13:50.180
They're both running open mandrake.

13:50.380 --> 13:53.540
They handle lightweight requests, the scripting, the

13:53.540 --> 13:54.380
audio processing.

13:54.860 --> 13:56.180
They are the managers.

13:56.440 --> 13:58.180
They keep the workflow moving.

13:59.680 --> 14:03.560
And while in the in the background, big bitch is going

14:03.560 --> 14:08.240
to be the back broom doing all the math and crunching

14:08.240 --> 14:08.660
the numbers.

14:09.620 --> 14:10.820
Heavy lifted stuff.

14:13.140 --> 14:16.820
But hardware is just a theater or she did it.

14:17.320 --> 14:17.880
Sorry.

14:18.520 --> 14:21.780
Hardware is just a heater without a brain.

14:22.320 --> 14:24.000
That's where a llama comes in.

14:24.560 --> 14:25.680
Oh, I'm as the engine.

14:26.500 --> 14:29.940
It's what lets us run these massive language models

14:29.940 --> 14:31.320
locally on our own metal.

14:32.000 --> 14:35.580
And the model of choice right now is llama 3.2.

14:37.640 --> 14:43.320
Although for the last, I guess probably five or six days

14:43.320 --> 14:47.160
now since it's been released that I've been using

14:47.900 --> 14:53.700
menstrual 3.3 because it's a smaller LLM and it

14:53.700 --> 14:54.820
still runs on a llama.

14:54.820 --> 14:59.520
Think of a llama as a llama is not the AI and a llama

14:59.520 --> 15:05.180
is just the platform that an LLM runs on.

15:05.780 --> 15:11.520
The LLM that I am using is men's menstrual 3.3.

15:13.180 --> 15:20.000
And it is it is outperforming llama 3.2.

15:20.900 --> 15:22.700
So just so you know.

15:26.060 --> 15:30.640
Anyways, but the reason why is it it seems to hit the absolute

15:30.640 --> 15:34.220
sweet spot between speed and intelligence for a local setup.

15:34.660 --> 15:39.380
It's smart enough to understand nuance, but fast enough that

15:39.380 --> 15:43.820
I'm not waiting 10 minutes for a response and a live production

15:43.820 --> 15:46.020
environment latency is the enemy.

15:48.420 --> 15:53.700
You will notice that you hear everybody talking about Ram.

15:55.420 --> 15:58.400
What most of them when it comes to AI, what they're talking

15:58.400 --> 16:03.000
about for Ram is V Ram, which is what runs on your GPU.

16:04.940 --> 16:11.920
You can have 128 gigabytes of actual Ram on your computer

16:12.660 --> 16:16.000
and that will help, but it's not going to be as

16:16.000 --> 16:19.560
fast as 12 gigabytes of VRAM on your GPU.

16:21.400 --> 16:25.640
So just keep that in mind and do your research when you're

16:25.640 --> 16:27.160
getting into doing all of this.

16:33.190 --> 16:35.300
Now, why is why is latency?

16:37.820 --> 16:41.980
The priority because I'm spending my weekends to week

16:41.980 --> 16:44.420
in Linux configs and managing GPU heat.

16:45.420 --> 16:47.860
No, it's about seizing the means of production.

16:48.620 --> 16:51.100
We have the stack big bitch.

16:51.240 --> 16:55.400
Lama Lama 3.2 ministerial 3.3.

16:55.400 --> 16:57.800
You are no longer just a podcaster.

16:58.280 --> 17:04.000
Your media conglomerate the stack allows a single single

17:04.000 --> 17:09.840
dissident me to produce content with the speed of act speed

17:09.840 --> 17:14.280
accuracy and efficiency of the entire CNN newsroom.

17:15.140 --> 17:18.000
They have interns and editors and producers.

17:18.460 --> 17:25.020
I have Python scripts and a GPU and quite frankly, I'm like

17:25.020 --> 17:25.820
in my odds.

17:26.760 --> 17:30.280
Now, I know some of you are thinking bonehead.

17:31.060 --> 17:34.640
That sounds great, but I don't know Python.

17:34.980 --> 17:37.100
I don't know how to wrangle a llama.

17:40.680 --> 17:42.360
That was a really bad dad joke.

17:42.360 --> 17:42.740
Sorry.

17:42.920 --> 17:43.860
Listen to me.

17:44.200 --> 17:46.680
I'm not building a walled garden here.

17:46.900 --> 17:47.940
That's that's for Apple.

17:48.140 --> 17:50.480
That's for the digital surfs.

17:50.540 --> 17:53.080
I'm planning to take the entire Liberty Suite.

17:53.420 --> 17:56.300
Every messy bash script, every Python file.

17:57.360 --> 18:01.520
All the glue that holds this operation together and I am

18:01.520 --> 18:02.960
going to dump it on GitHub.

18:04.540 --> 18:07.100
It's going to be open source, free as a freedom.

18:07.100 --> 18:13.180
And because I know looking at raw code can be intimidating, I

18:13.180 --> 18:16.360
can I'm also planning to record video walkthroughs.

18:16.780 --> 18:19.840
I'm going to fire up the screen recorder and show you exactly

18:19.840 --> 18:21.360
how these tools work.

18:21.860 --> 18:24.520
I'll show you how Liberty Intel wakes up.

18:24.980 --> 18:28.320
I'll show you how shell sage helps me think.

18:29.800 --> 18:32.420
I don't just want to have a factory.

18:32.620 --> 18:34.800
I want us to have a network of factories.

18:35.660 --> 18:37.840
So look out for these links coming soon.

18:39.520 --> 18:41.940
We're going to take a break right now.

18:42.340 --> 18:45.920
When I come back, I'm going to open the toolbox and talk

18:45.920 --> 18:49.760
a little bit about the actual Liberty Suite, the custom code

18:49.760 --> 18:52.980
I wrote to weaponize my hardware.

18:54.920 --> 18:56.460
So stay tuned.

22:26.030 --> 22:27.690
Welcome back to the shop floor.

22:28.310 --> 22:31.470
Last segment, we talked about the iron.

22:31.470 --> 22:36.250
Big bitch, the OM bitches, all them bitches.

22:39.230 --> 22:39.990
None of that.

22:40.050 --> 22:40.650
Think about it.

22:40.690 --> 22:43.150
Maybe I shouldn't name my computer's bitches.

22:44.470 --> 22:45.290
What you doing?

22:45.530 --> 22:49.530
I was just hanging out messing with my bitches.

22:54.830 --> 22:58.110
Oh, damn it.

22:58.110 --> 23:03.170
Anyways, like I said, a hardware without software is just

23:03.170 --> 23:06.130
a fancy expensive way to to each room.

23:07.050 --> 23:10.490
You need to you need the code to drive the gears.

23:13.690 --> 23:16.030
So I'm calling this the Liberty Suite.

23:17.130 --> 23:21.210
It's the custom arsenal that I've written to automate the

23:21.210 --> 23:26.650
Uncle Bonehead Empire or protocol, protocol, whatever you

23:26.650 --> 23:27.310
want to call it.

23:28.810 --> 23:35.070
It's a mix of Python, bash and pure spite for the subscription

23:35.070 --> 23:35.650
model.

23:37.230 --> 23:41.390
But before we pop the hood, I want to tell you why I had to

23:41.390 --> 23:42.010
build this.

23:42.530 --> 23:48.130
Why go through the pain of writing code when I could just

23:48.130 --> 23:51.570
pay Adobe or Microsoft 20 bucks a month.

23:52.730 --> 24:01.430
Turn your Bibles to the book of Nehemiah, Nehemiah.

24:03.490 --> 24:06.090
Jerusalem in the city and ruins.

24:06.810 --> 24:07.790
The walls are down.

24:07.970 --> 24:08.870
The people are vulnerable.

24:09.690 --> 24:09.990
Nehemiah.

24:11.070 --> 24:15.010
Goes back to rebuild the city, but he has enemies.

24:16.830 --> 24:18.110
Sabalot Tobias.

24:18.110 --> 24:25.310
that. Basically the big tech and federal regulators of the ancient world are trying to stop him.

24:25.750 --> 24:33.410
They are threatening him. They're mocking him. So what does Nehemihaia do? He doesn't stop

24:33.410 --> 24:44.650
building. He doesn't ignore the threat either. Nehemihaia 417 says, they which build it

24:44.650 --> 24:55.010
on the wall and they that bear burdens with those that laid it everyone with one of his hands

24:55.770 --> 25:02.850
wrought in the work and with the other hand held a weapon the sword and the trowel.

25:02.970 --> 25:08.930
That is the philosophy of the Liberty Suite. I'm trying to build something

25:10.050 --> 25:19.050
content, culture, truth that requires a trowel. But I'm doing it in hostile territory where

25:19.790 --> 25:29.130
our data is being harvested and our speech is being throttled. That requires a sword.

25:29.950 --> 25:32.730
Every tool in the suite is designed to be both.

25:34.070 --> 25:38.710
It builds the content and it pretend it defends the creator.

25:41.690 --> 25:44.030
Now let's look at the production tools first.

25:46.430 --> 25:54.790
These are the tools that replace the staff that I don't have. I am one dude doing all of this.

25:57.410 --> 26:03.090
They have a lot teamed up with Sal Mines. He's the one running the real Liberty Media

26:04.150 --> 26:10.950
radio station. But you know, as far as Liberty tunes and libertytunes.org, that's

26:11.670 --> 26:20.650
all me. Just me. Scribe. That's the first thing. I call it the year. Scribe.

26:22.910 --> 26:29.950
It's a terminal user interface. Most of these are terminal. Nearly all of them are terminal

26:29.950 --> 26:39.210
user interfaces. It handles auto transcription using whisper.cpp. Why is this a weapon?

26:39.570 --> 26:47.290
Because if you use otter.ai or Google to transcribe your meetings or your rants,

26:48.080 --> 26:51.970
you're feeding their database. You are training their model.

26:52.830 --> 27:01.250
Scribe listens to my audio and converts it into text and SRT files locally on my

27:01.960 --> 27:09.570
bitch. It doesn't send my audio to the cloud. It happens right here on bare metal.

27:11.110 --> 27:15.170
Sambalot doesn't get to hear what I'm saying until I publish it.

27:16.910 --> 27:21.650
We got another one called Persona Forge. That's my artist.

27:26.050 --> 27:32.050
If you've heard by Rebel Drop and Bars about this surveillance state or a mirror nocturne singing

27:32.050 --> 27:36.710
about love and death. It started on Persona Forge.

27:38.650 --> 27:45.150
Standard AI, chat, GBT, Claude has a filter. It sounds like an HR department. It's sterile.

27:46.610 --> 27:54.930
Persona Forge is a creative writing terminal user interface that breaks the safety filter.

27:54.930 --> 28:03.390
It forces the local model to write a write in specific deep personas. It tells the AI,

28:03.810 --> 28:12.330
you are not a helpful assistant. You are an angry new metal vocalist from 2025. Act like it.

28:14.970 --> 28:17.430
Third, there's a thing called Shell Sage.

28:19.190 --> 28:24.250
Honestly, I built this just because I have fat fingers and I forget Linux commands.

28:24.250 --> 28:31.710
It's my sysadmin. It helps me code. It helps me summarize logs. But my favorite feature,

28:32.670 --> 28:42.070
the one that saves my sanity daily, is the WTF command. When the terminal spits out some cryptic

28:42.070 --> 28:49.770
error message that makes no sense, I just type WTF. Shell Sage reads the error,

28:49.770 --> 28:58.750
accesses the local documentation, and explains it to me like I'm five. It's the mentor in the machine.

29:00.730 --> 29:03.070
Tool number four is Image Crush.

29:05.770 --> 29:14.310
It's, I don't know if you've ever used tinypng.com, but it's a place where you can

29:15.370 --> 29:23.390
scrunch your images down to literally nothing and saves you a lot of space on your images

29:24.030 --> 29:27.490
because image files can be huge for what they are.

29:29.370 --> 29:42.370
This, my crush, Image Crush, it strips out the local, all the XF data, camera serial numbers,

29:42.370 --> 29:48.570
everything. You'd be surprised what's actually in an image file if you don't strip that stuff out.

29:49.790 --> 29:55.770
It's even got GPS coordinates in your image files. Think about that. When you're up,

29:55.870 --> 30:01.170
taking a picture on your phone and then you upload it to Google Photos or Apple Photos,

30:01.930 --> 30:07.070
you're giving them your GPS coordinates, every single picture.

30:08.430 --> 30:12.130
They can, they can put those on a map and see where you've been.

30:14.270 --> 30:16.410
So, think about this stuff.

30:19.470 --> 30:26.470
But this, you know, that's what Image Crush does. It strips all of that stuff out

30:26.470 --> 30:31.810
and then compresses the picture down and makes it completely smaller.

30:34.910 --> 30:42.150
Um, those are all the production, yeah, production ones.

30:42.950 --> 30:50.680
The audio and publishing side, this is the direct injection workflow, I call it.

30:52.070 --> 30:58.890
Castoprep. I hate tagging metadata. It's tedious, it's boring,

30:58.890 --> 31:03.030
and it's the kind of work that makes you want to quit podcasting.

31:04.750 --> 31:10.430
Castoprep automates it for me. It takes a raw flag file that I produce from the studio,

31:10.910 --> 31:14.630
converts it to MP3, tags them with the right ID, three tags,

31:14.930 --> 31:22.030
and embeds the artwork automatically. Turns a 20-minute chore into a 30-second script.

31:24.810 --> 31:31.390
Castopublish. This is one, it's new. It's, I'm still, I'm working on it,

31:32.430 --> 31:38.450
so it's not done yet, but this is, this is my holy grail.

31:39.930 --> 31:47.730
The goal is to push episodes from my local machine directly to my Castopod instance.

31:48.290 --> 31:53.410
But no logging into the browser, no drag and drop, no clicking through menus,

31:53.730 --> 31:59.950
just a script that injects the content directly into the RSS feed from Castopod.

32:00.950 --> 32:03.510
It's the ultimate publish button.

32:05.550 --> 32:13.790
The next one is simple mastering GUI. For you audio files, there's a simple mastering GUI.

32:14.670 --> 32:19.810
I wrote the visual wrapper for a tool called maturing underscore CLI.

32:20.470 --> 32:27.470
It takes a raw mix and gives it that final broadcast polish, the compression, the limiting,

32:27.670 --> 32:35.750
the EQ, messes with the RMS, all without needing a $500 plug-in from Waves or Isotope.

32:36.910 --> 32:39.910
It sounds professional, but it's free.

32:42.130 --> 32:46.170
The foundation, this is the wall.

32:48.790 --> 32:55.570
You could say, I guess it's the wall. Finally, the infrastructure that keeps me safe,

32:55.910 --> 33:02.210
the foundation of the wall, MKM3U. This one handles the batch playlist

33:02.210 --> 33:07.990
generations from my personal radio station on my land. It keeps the music flowing.

33:08.790 --> 33:15.110
Yes, I have a radio station running on my land that I can listen to my radio

33:16.010 --> 33:19.490
all day long if I want to. It keeps the music flowing.

33:22.250 --> 33:28.510
This one's called Project Rody, and it's the silent hero.

33:29.950 --> 33:35.650
It encrypts and mounts cloud storage, specifically Google Drive, as a local drive.

33:36.310 --> 33:39.010
Now, you might ask, Bonad, isn't Google the enemy?

33:39.470 --> 33:46.650
Yes. Yes, they are very much the enemy. That's why I use Rody. It lets me use their

33:46.650 --> 33:52.610
storage for my music library backups. I use their disk base. I use their bandwidth.

33:53.590 --> 33:59.330
But because Rody encrypts every single bit locally before it leaves my network,

34:00.430 --> 34:06.430
Google's got no idea what's in there. To them, it's just noise. To me, it's a backup.

34:07.550 --> 34:13.430
It's a blind drop. We're using the King's resources to build the resistance.

34:15.970 --> 34:19.910
That in a nutshell is the Liberty Suite. Well, I'm not done. I've got another one.

34:20.010 --> 34:27.410
I'm calling it the mirror, the Liberty Mirror. And what it does is it's basically the same

34:27.410 --> 34:36.690
thing as Project Rody, but it puts everything on to my external hard drive.

34:38.370 --> 34:49.490
And as I put stuff into the Liberty Suite folder, and it does all the work,

34:49.490 --> 35:00.170
it will mirror that over to my encrypted external hard drive. So I've got a local copy

35:00.980 --> 35:12.470
and a copy of Google Drive. If you've distro hopped as much as I have in the last 15 years,

35:14.770 --> 35:21.010
you're bound to mess up and lose data somewhere. I'm not losing data no more.

35:21.510 --> 35:27.930
Oh, I've also got a thing called Liberty Archives, which is an automated deal.

35:27.930 --> 35:34.970
It's running ChromaDB that I can throw. I'm throwing all these show notes into.

35:36.390 --> 35:45.950
And that's going to operate as rag. Retrieval augmented something or other for the AI.

35:46.470 --> 35:55.390
The AI can access that. And I can ask my local AI and say, hey, what did I say on this podcast

35:56.750 --> 36:05.650
back in June about such and such? And it will go through my database and say, oh,

36:05.670 --> 36:17.210
this is what you said on that podcast. So it's. That's also backed up on my local drive.

36:18.850 --> 36:27.450
So it's, yeah, I'm building the wall to put around myself. And we dare to try and

36:28.010 --> 36:34.150
dare them to try and knock it down. Coming up next, I'm going to talk about Liberty Intel.

36:34.390 --> 36:41.210
This is where it gets really interesting. It's a headless agency that wakes up at 7am

36:41.210 --> 36:45.090
and reads me the news so I don't have to.

36:46.670 --> 36:55.450
You guys are going to love it. Let's do a share crop world used to be,

36:55.450 --> 40:39.760
you could run this highway flat out way stations fences on the front new cage.

40:40.880 --> 41:03.900
Make sure you register that copyright before they charge you to breathe your business,

41:03.900 --> 41:08.220
drowning in software costs, tools that don't work together and privacy risks.

41:08.840 --> 41:13.500
Meet federated computer. A complete business suite built to simplify your tech stack.

41:14.040 --> 41:19.020

41:51.080 --> 41:54.460
Federated computer. Streamline. Save and scale.

42:15.050 --> 42:28.760
You know, I should actually start saying something like,

42:28.900 --> 42:31.740
you know, good morning, this it answer good afternoon,

42:31.760 --> 42:35.400
depending on where the sun is in relation to your IP address.

42:37.040 --> 42:43.840
Yeah, screw that. It's kind of dumb. It's podcasts. You can, you listen to it whenever

42:43.840 --> 42:51.760
you are, why it's not like we're, yeah. Anyways, so let me paint a picture for you.

42:52.820 --> 42:58.060
It's six, six, 59 AM. You're warm. You're comfortable.

42:59.100 --> 43:03.020
You're in a, you're are essentially a happy biological entity.

43:03.600 --> 43:11.980
And then beep, beep, beep. The alarm goes off. Now be honest with me.

43:13.140 --> 43:19.360
Be honest with your own component. I know what you do because I did it for 20 years

43:19.360 --> 43:26.060
in the cab of a truck. You reach over to the nightstand. You unplug that little black mirror,

43:26.560 --> 43:34.160
your smartphone. You unlock it. You haven't even stretched yet. You haven't kissed your wife.

43:34.900 --> 43:41.900
You haven't scratched your balls. You haven't scratched your ass, but you're already logged

43:41.900 --> 43:51.120
in. And what hits you? The fire hose. You check the feeds. It's a dumpster fire.

43:52.460 --> 43:59.260
Someone's angry about a statue. Someone else is angry about the price of eggs.

44:00.540 --> 44:05.780
The EFF is mourning about a new surveillance bill buried in a budget proposal.

44:06.380 --> 44:10.960
Ars Technica says a new JavaScript framework just broke the entire internet.

44:12.080 --> 44:22.840
By 7.15 AM, your cortisol levels are spiked. Your heart rates up. You're angry. You're anxious.

44:24.080 --> 44:32.600
And you're exhausted. You have processed the entire world's trauma before you even had your

44:32.600 --> 44:47.840
first sip of coffee. You know, it really, it will eventually kill you. I take it from somebody that

44:47.840 --> 44:58.160
suffers from heart failure. I mean, yeah, I drank a lot of coffee and I was a speed freak and I

44:58.160 --> 45:05.880
had a lot of caffeine in my younger years and I drank a metric shit ton of alcohol.

45:07.620 --> 45:13.880
But that's not the only thing that that contributed to my health issues.

45:15.460 --> 45:26.560
I was stressed all the time 24-7 when I was driving truck because I let it get to me.

45:27.680 --> 45:30.700
And my heart said, screw you, we're done.

45:33.300 --> 45:40.340
Yeah, I realized about a year ago that this kind of thing is unsustainable.

45:41.340 --> 45:47.680
My fat fingers can't keep scrolling like this. I'm too old to be this angry this early in the day.

45:48.660 --> 45:54.440
I needed a filter. I needed a gatekeeper. And that brings me to the little story,

45:55.180 --> 46:05.040
not a tech story. It's an old story. It's a desert story. Open your Bible, the history book,

46:05.840 --> 46:13.020
or your browser tabs, you know, whatever, to Exodus chapter 18. I want you to visualize this.

46:13.720 --> 46:23.540
We got Moses, big guy, leader of the free world. He's led the Israelites out of Egypt.

46:24.440 --> 46:31.380
They're in the wilderness. Now, Exodus 18 describes a day in the life of Moses. And honestly,

46:32.180 --> 46:37.560
sounds like a nightmare. The scripture says Moses sat to judge the people

46:38.360 --> 46:46.000
and the people stood around him from morning until evening. Think about that. One guy, one dude,

46:47.640 --> 46:56.100
and thousands of people lining up with their problems. Hey, Moses, my neighbor stole my goat.

46:57.260 --> 47:04.860
Hey, Moses, this guy moved my tent peg. Hey, Moses, is it a sin if I eat this weird lizard I found?

47:06.780 --> 47:13.340
Moses is functioning as a single core processor for an entire nation's data stream.

47:14.500 --> 47:25.500
He's doing manual processing on every single input. Then there enters Jethro. Jethro is Moses'

47:25.760 --> 47:34.240
father-in-law. He's a Midianite priest, which basically means he's an outside consultant.

47:35.360 --> 47:41.900
He comes into the camp. He watches Moses doing this for one day and he shakes his head.

47:43.750 --> 47:51.640
He pulls Moses aside and he says the most important thing any siss of men has ever heard.

47:52.320 --> 48:13.320
Exodus 18, 17 through 18. Jethro says the thing that thou doest is not good. Thou will

48:14.040 --> 48:21.320
for this thing is too heavy for thee. Thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.

48:22.780 --> 48:32.480
The thing is too heavy. That's us. That's us trying to manually process the internet every morning.

48:33.760 --> 48:37.620
The data stream of the 21st century is too heavy for the human brain.

48:38.440 --> 48:44.940
You cannot process the grief of five continents and still be a productive father, husband,

48:45.120 --> 48:53.040
or employee. You will wear away. So I took Jethro's advice. I stopped trying to be Moses.

48:54.040 --> 49:02.900
I built a captain of thousands. I built Liberty Intel. So what is Liberty Intel?

49:03.620 --> 49:09.560
It's part of the Liberty Suite, my custom stack of software, but it's not just a script.

49:10.220 --> 49:18.580
It's a headless agency. Headless meaning it runs in the dark. No monitor, no mouse,

49:19.480 --> 49:27.020
just a background demon living in the shell waiting for the sun to come up. Let me break

49:27.020 --> 49:33.300
down the workflow because this is where the magic happens. The scout, phase one,

49:34.320 --> 49:44.060
at 7 a.m. while I'm storing the crime job fires, the scout module wakes up. It hits the streets.

49:45.360 --> 49:52.100
It goes to the electronic frontier foundation. It goes to ours technically. It goes to

49:52.100 --> 50:00.440
claim the net.org. It goes to niche political oversight blogs that actually raise my blood pressure.

50:01.520 --> 50:09.180
And here's the key. It does it without tracking. It scrapes the RSS feeds and raw HTML. It doesn't

50:09.180 --> 50:16.400
load the ads. It doesn't load the trackers. It just grabs the data and runs back to the server.

50:17.460 --> 50:24.280
Now, phase two is the analyst. It's also the roast. This is where it gets fun.

50:25.280 --> 50:32.000
The scout dumps that raw text into the analyst. Now, the analyst is a chat PPT.

50:32.660 --> 50:36.520
It isn't some woke corporate AI that's afraid to offend you.

50:37.400 --> 50:48.460
The analyst is Ministeral 3.3 running local via Olama. And I have given it a very specific system

50:48.460 --> 50:56.140
prompt. I didn't tell it to be helpful and friendly. I told it to be cynical, anti-authoritarian,

50:56.830 --> 51:03.320
and R rated. I told it, you are a grit tooth surveillance survivalist.

51:04.040 --> 51:13.260
Read this news. If it's fluff, burn it. If it's tyranny, expose it. And don't be polite about it.

51:13.920 --> 51:22.600
So it doesn't just summarize the news. It roasts the news. If a politician proposes a safety

51:22.600 --> 51:29.020
bill that kills encryption, Liberty Intel doesn't say Senator Smith proposes new safety measures.

51:29.820 --> 51:35.220
Liberty Intel says Senator Smith is trying to sell your privacy to the highest bidder

51:35.220 --> 51:39.180
under the guise of saving the children. Here's why he's full of shit.

51:41.180 --> 51:46.060
Let me give you a concrete example. This actually happened the other morning.

51:46.060 --> 51:52.800
My scout wrapper grabbed a tweet from Aaron Day regarding X's new terms of service.

51:53.540 --> 51:59.560
Now normally I would go past the terms of service update, but they are because they're boring. It's

51:59.560 --> 52:08.020
legal gibberish. But the analyst, my local ministeral 3.3 read the fine print. And because I have its

52:08.740 --> 52:13.980
cynicism dial cranked up to 11, it flagged this as a critical threat.

52:13.980 --> 52:20.580
And here's the summary that Ravensky read to me while I was drinking my coffee.

52:22.100 --> 52:28.720
Good morning, Uncle Bonehead. Grab your coffee or perhaps something stronger. We are looking

52:28.720 --> 52:36.200
at the new terms of service for X. Effective January 15, 2026. And darling, the free speech

52:36.200 --> 52:41.520
comes with a very expensive price tag. First up, the AI training writes grab,

52:41.520 --> 52:47.020
everything you post every witty thought, every opinion, every piece of creative work

52:47.020 --> 52:52.520
is now fuel for their models. You are building their empire for free with zero compensation

52:52.520 --> 52:58.720
and absolutely no opt out. And it doesn't stop there. They are claiming a perpetual content

52:58.720 --> 53:04.880
license. That means a worldwide royalty free ticket to use, modify and distribute your

53:04.880 --> 53:09.940
content in any media now known or later developed. They can sell it or even give

53:09.940 --> 53:15.720
trap it for governments forever. Feeling litigious, pack your bags for Tarrant County,

53:16.000 --> 53:20.660
Texas, because that is the only place you are allowed to file a dispute. Oh,

53:20.860 --> 53:26.520
and you wave the right to join class actions. If they wrong millions, you stand alone in their

53:26.520 --> 53:32.620
court. If you wait too long to realize you've been burned specifically, 366 days you forever

53:32.620 --> 53:37.080
wave the right to pursue a claim. And if they do manage to destroy your business,

53:37.080 --> 53:43.360
reputation or life through negligence, the maximum liability is capped at a generous $100.

53:44.300 --> 53:49.980
Privacy is so last season under government disclosure, they reserve the right to hand

53:49.980 --> 53:54.800
your DMs, drafts and entire history to governments based purely on what they

53:54.800 --> 54:00.560
reasonably believe is necessary. And don't try to look under the hood. The anti-jailbreak

54:00.560 --> 54:05.980
clause means testing their AI, exposing censorship or performing security research

54:05.980 --> 54:11.560
is a violation. They have explicitly added prompt engineering or injection to the naughty list.

54:11.960 --> 54:16.100
The bottom line, they can delete your account for no reason at their convenience,

54:16.420 --> 54:21.600
erasing years of connections instantly. Meanwhile, if a researcher accesses more than

54:21.600 --> 54:28.440
1 million posts in 24 hours to investigate them, they owe $15,000 in liquidated damages.

54:28.960 --> 54:32.800
Free speech platform? Sure, don't think so.

54:34.580 --> 54:40.080
Now, was my audio working before that, before I played the rave and briefing?

54:42.060 --> 54:47.660
I don't know, because that's where I looked over there and I saw that the button wasn't lit up.

54:49.040 --> 54:56.400
Somebody let me know if they heard that. If not, I'm just going to keep on going here.

54:56.400 --> 55:08.300
So you hear that. The maximum liability is $100 on X in 2026. AI training is mandatory.

55:09.220 --> 55:13.900
You cannot opt out. If I've been scrolling on my phone, I might have missed that.

55:14.200 --> 55:21.060
I might have just seen the headline X updates terms. Because Liberty Intel is reading the fine

55:21.060 --> 55:28.440
print for me. I know the truth. If you're posting your creative work on X, you aren't a creator.

55:29.180 --> 55:36.740
You are an unpaid data clerk, entry clerk for GROC. That's exactly why we need Liberty Archives.

55:37.860 --> 55:44.520
This is exactly why we need our own platforms, because sovereign AI to them means they are

55:44.520 --> 55:47.880
the sovereign and you are the peasant.

55:51.400 --> 55:57.520
So the analysis is done, but I don't want to read a text file in a terminal. I want a briefing.

55:58.960 --> 56:07.560
Phase three, the anchor that you just heard, Raven Sky. The system that takes that roasted

56:07.560 --> 56:15.040
summary and generates a clean readable HTML file and a markdown file and formats it beautifully.

56:15.460 --> 56:22.320
Headlines, bullet points, source links that I can open up in a browser. The markdown file,

56:22.580 --> 56:28.160
I've got it throwing it into Liberty Archives because it reads markdown or text files better.

56:28.860 --> 56:33.120
And I like markdown better than just a plain old text file.

56:36.640 --> 56:47.580
The system, it's awesome, but it doesn't just do that. It has that script, the Raven Sky persona.

56:49.500 --> 56:57.000
She's the eclectic, unpredictable persona. She's the cosmopolitan face of the operation.

56:58.600 --> 57:05.160
She uses local text to speech. The system generates an audio track of Raven reading the briefing.

57:05.760 --> 57:12.600
So I walk into my office. I open the HTML file on my screen to read along. I take a sip of coffee

57:12.600 --> 57:25.020
and I hit play. And then there is Raven reading me the Ryan Act, telling me exactly what the

57:25.020 --> 57:33.760
sarcasm and wit that ministerial three dot three added to the stripped. Phase four is the deep dive.

57:33.760 --> 57:39.540
It's an on-demand stuff. Now let's say Raven reads a headline that catches my ear.

57:39.960 --> 57:47.840
Maybe something about digital ID, implementation in the web west. I turn on the term. I open

57:47.840 --> 57:55.260
the terminal. Liberty Intel give me a deep dive on digital ID. This is the killer app.

57:55.760 --> 58:03.180
The system doesn't just Google it. It spins up a new instance. It goes out, gathers deep

58:03.180 --> 58:09.860
research, and then it asks me, what do you want to hear from? Who do you want to hear from?

58:11.120 --> 58:16.840
I can choose the persona. If I want an aggressive tear it all down rant about it,

58:16.840 --> 58:25.420
I select my bite rebel persona. The system writes a script in his voice, angry, fast, heavy,

58:25.800 --> 58:32.580
and generates the audio. If I want a nuanced philosophical take, I select Mergar Nocturne.

58:33.360 --> 58:37.880
If I want to laugh at how stupid it all is, I select one cold mudflap.

58:39.070 --> 58:45.580
It generates a custom mini podcast on that specific topic right there on the spot.

58:47.200 --> 58:54.060
So why go to all this trouble? Why write code, configure ministerial 3.3, and set up audio

58:54.060 --> 59:01.400
generation just to read the news? Because like Jethro told Moses, the thing is too heavy.

59:02.900 --> 59:07.700
If you let the algorithm feed you, you eat what they want you to eat.

59:08.840 --> 59:15.500
You get the fear they want you to feel. You get the distractions they want you to click on.

59:16.840 --> 59:24.080
With Liberty Intel, I own the filter. I own the scout that gathers the Intel. I own the analyst

59:24.080 --> 59:30.920
that interprets it. I own the anchor that delivers it. I have automated my situational awareness.

59:32.260 --> 59:40.220
So now by 7.30 a.m., I am the most informed person in the world, and I haven't clicked a

59:40.220 --> 59:48.920
single bait link or seen a single ad. Stop trying to be Moses. Stop drowning in the stream. Build

59:48.920 --> 59:56.520
your dam. Install your captains. Let Raven Sky tell you how the world ends. It sounds much

59:56.520 --> 01:00:05.280
better coming from her anyways. Stay free. Stay private. And if you're going to use AI, make

01:00:05.280 --> 01:00:14.200
sure it's R-rated and running on your own metal, because that's what sovereign AI is.

01:00:15.240 --> 01:00:19.660
And speaking of Raven Sky, here's a brand-spaking new one. Nobody's ever heard this one yet.

01:00:20.440 --> 01:00:26.460
This one was written entirely on my local AI.

01:02:08.840 --> 01:04:27.550
Now, in the last segment, I talked about Liberty Intel, the agency that handles the

01:04:28.370 --> 01:04:35.550
now. It reads the news, so I don't have to. It handles the stream. But now I want to talk about

01:04:36.070 --> 01:04:43.030
the forever. I want to talk about Project Liberty Archives, or as I call it in the system logs,

01:04:43.990 --> 01:04:50.430
the arc. You know, there's a theory floating around the dark corners of the web. It's called

01:04:50.430 --> 01:04:59.070
the dead internet theory. The idea is simple. Sometime around 2016 or 2017, the human internet

01:04:59.070 --> 01:05:06.230
died. The organic traffic, real people talking to real people, was overtaken by bots, algorithms

01:05:06.230 --> 01:05:13.030
talking to algorithms. And now, with the explosion of genitive AI, we are seeing the

01:05:13.030 --> 01:05:19.730
decomposition of the web in real time. You search for a recipe. You get an AI-generated

01:05:19.730 --> 01:05:27.430
blog post about a grandmother who never existed, written by a bot, optimized for a search engine

01:05:27.430 --> 01:05:36.810
that is also a bot. You go to the social media. It's bots arguing with bots about politics to

01:05:36.810 --> 01:05:47.430
generate engagement for advertisers who are, wait for it, bots. Sounds an awful lot like Twitter.

01:05:50.370 --> 01:05:58.230
Or X. I'm sorry. Twatter is what I call it. Anyways, we are drowning in noise. We're drowning in

01:05:58.230 --> 01:06:05.370
slop. The internet is no longer a library. It's a landfill. And every day, the trash trucks back

01:06:05.370 --> 01:06:11.610
up and dump another petabyte of synthetic garbage on top of the actual human history.

01:06:11.610 --> 01:06:19.990
If you're a dissident, you care about truth, liberty, or even just how to repair a diesel engine.

01:06:20.750 --> 01:06:27.390
You cannot rely on the cloud. The cloud is being poisoned. You need a hardened node.

01:06:28.290 --> 01:06:34.750
You need to stop renting your history and start owning it. You need to build a boat.

01:06:37.090 --> 01:06:42.590
Let's go back to the original prepper. The Patriot saint of I told you so.

01:06:43.390 --> 01:06:51.350
All the way back to Genesis chapter six, the story of Noah. Now we all know the Sunday school

01:06:51.350 --> 01:06:58.390
version. The animals, the rainbow, the dove. It's cute on a nursery wall. But I want you

01:06:58.390 --> 01:07:05.030
to look at the engineering reality of Noah. God looks at the world and sees a corruption.

01:07:06.550 --> 01:07:13.110
He sees violence. He sees, let's call it system failure. And he tells Noah to build a container

01:07:13.490 --> 01:07:26.050
and arc. Just just think about that. That alone. Building a giant ass boat

01:07:28.270 --> 01:07:31.910
that can hold all these animals and your family.

01:07:34.390 --> 01:07:35.490
That doesn't leak.

01:07:40.440 --> 01:07:47.580
Yeah. You see people doing, you see people laughing at preppers all the time.

01:07:50.760 --> 01:07:56.400
But you know what? The ones that are hoarding the food, the bullets,

01:07:58.100 --> 01:08:04.180
you know, they're going to be the kings, at least until they run out of bullets.

01:08:06.720 --> 01:08:14.440
They're going to be the ones that are kicking it in the future.

01:08:16.640 --> 01:08:22.920
You know, I hear from people all the time about, oh, you know, crypto is going to be

01:08:23.580 --> 01:08:29.040
number one. It's going to be great. You know, it's going to put it to the man.

01:08:30.700 --> 01:08:36.360
You forget that the man controls your electricity, right?

01:08:40.380 --> 01:08:50.560
Unless you've got a generator and a massive stockpile of diesel or kerosene or gasoline,

01:08:50.560 --> 01:08:52.200
whatever your generator runs on.

01:08:57.640 --> 01:09:01.700
They turn that electricity off. There's a good chance they're not going to turn it back on

01:09:02.420 --> 01:09:06.520
until you bend over for them or bend the knee for them.

01:09:09.960 --> 01:09:19.740
So in reality, your cryptocurrency and all your stuff that you have that depends on

01:09:19.740 --> 01:09:27.500
electricity is not going to come back. So think about that

01:09:29.920 --> 01:09:36.100
before you start talking about how great Bitcoin is or how good Monero is.

01:09:38.320 --> 01:09:42.060
I don't give a shit what your favorite token is.

01:09:44.760 --> 01:09:48.580
Oh, well, we'll build a secondary internet. It's not going to make a difference.

01:09:49.220 --> 01:09:51.520
You can't get on the internet without electricity.

01:09:56.980 --> 01:10:03.620
And even those ones, well, you'll play it on 90 days. No, it's going to be longer than 90 days.

01:10:05.560 --> 01:10:12.600
When they when they do get to the point that they want to slap the world down

01:10:13.840 --> 01:10:17.160
and ensure that everybody is enslaved.

01:10:20.040 --> 01:10:21.740
It's not coming back.

01:10:24.040 --> 01:10:25.780
Except for the chosen few.

01:10:27.580 --> 01:10:37.780
The whirling class, the third world countries are going to be

01:10:40.800 --> 01:10:48.660
predominant in size and scope compared to the first world.

01:10:50.040 --> 01:10:57.080
And that's what a lot of people fool themselves into. They all think that

01:10:57.800 --> 01:11:05.920
it's like, you know, your typical leftist socialist communist, the ones that are really

01:11:06.440 --> 01:11:14.880
for communism. Oh, you think it's going to be good and they're going to include you?

01:11:17.560 --> 01:11:24.720
You're not. Socialism and communism depends on a very large

01:11:26.240 --> 01:11:33.720
servant class for a very small top class.

01:11:36.600 --> 01:11:39.420
And just because you agree with it

01:11:41.220 --> 01:11:45.780
does not mean you're going to be up there at the top unless you know somebody.

01:11:48.640 --> 01:11:56.880
And that's exactly what they're heading to all over the world. Not about the individual.

01:11:58.620 --> 01:12:06.360
It's the fruits of the collective for the enjoyment of the few.

01:12:10.110 --> 01:12:13.320
This is pretty much the same thing Noah was looking at,

01:12:14.120 --> 01:12:21.700
surviving a worldwide catastrophic flood. His instructions were specific,

01:12:22.210 --> 01:12:31.240
go for word, pitch within and without 300 cubits long, not a luxury cruiser liner.

01:12:31.840 --> 01:12:40.280
It was a lifeboat, had one function, preservation. Noah wasn't saving the world as it was.

01:12:40.980 --> 01:12:46.920
The world as it was was getting flushed. Noah was saving the seed of the world.

01:12:47.540 --> 01:12:54.140
He was extracting genetic code, the animals, his family, the knowledge, and putting it in

01:12:54.140 --> 01:13:00.020
a hardened container to write out the chaos. This is exactly what we're doing,

01:13:01.480 --> 01:13:06.180
what I'm doing with Liberty Archives. The flood's coming.

01:13:07.880 --> 01:13:11.120
In fact, it's already here in many, many cases.

01:13:20.920 --> 01:13:27.380
It's already the flood of disinformation, censorship, AI, hallucination.

01:13:29.520 --> 01:13:37.080
If you trust Wikipedia to remember the truth in 10 years, you're naive. If you trust YouTube to

01:13:37.080 --> 01:13:41.220
keep your favorite tutorial videos online, you're foolish.

01:13:43.480 --> 01:13:50.640
You have to be Noah. You have to decide what is worth saving. What goes in the boat?

01:13:53.100 --> 01:13:59.360
Do you have blueprints to build it? Have you even thought about building your own boat?

01:14:02.600 --> 01:14:05.180
So how do we build a digital arc in 2025?

01:14:06.260 --> 01:14:11.900
Well, we don't use Gopherwood. We use a vector database. I'm using ChromaDB.

01:14:14.680 --> 01:14:20.600
That's the core of Liberty Archives. Don't let your eyes glaze over. I know vector database

01:14:20.600 --> 01:14:27.560
sounds like something from a Star Trek episode. Just bear with me. Here's a simple version for

01:14:27.560 --> 01:14:34.780
my fellow truck drivers. A normal database is like a spreadsheet, rows and columns. Vector

01:14:34.780 --> 01:14:46.070
database is like a 3D map of meaning, kind of like a library versus a GPS.

01:14:49.850 --> 01:14:57.070
Maybe, maybe library, you know, library list books by title. Vector database, you know,

01:14:57.070 --> 01:15:01.330
knows that Apple and fruit are close together, but Apple and Microsoft

01:15:01.760 --> 01:15:07.670
are also close together in a different direction. See what I'm, are you following?

01:15:08.770 --> 01:15:18.270
It's like a 3D type spreadsheet. So here, well, anyways, here's what Liberty Archives does.

01:15:18.510 --> 01:15:24.610
It takes everything I have created. Every episode of Liberty Tunes, every blog post,

01:15:24.610 --> 01:15:30.010
every script from Liberty Beats, every rant I've ever written about the safety of,

01:15:32.430 --> 01:15:39.750
you know, every rant, everything that I've done. It chops them up into little chunks,

01:15:40.590 --> 01:15:47.810
and then it turns those chunks into numbers, which are called vectors. Why? Because it gives

01:15:47.810 --> 01:15:55.970
my local AI long-term memory. When I fire up Shell Sage, my terminal assistant, and I ask,

01:15:56.710 --> 01:15:59.710
hey, what did I say about the Rust programming language last year?

01:16:00.650 --> 01:16:08.130
The AI doesn't have to hallucinate. It queries the vector database, the ARC. It finds the

01:16:08.130 --> 01:16:14.670
exact moment I ranted about the US government endorsing Rust. It pulls the context and it

01:16:14.670 --> 01:16:22.870
answers me using my own knowledge base. This is called a RAG system, Retrievo Augmented Generation.

01:16:23.870 --> 01:16:29.510
It allows me to talk to my own past. It allows me to query my own library.

01:16:30.350 --> 01:16:40.130
It preserves the bonehead worldview inside a silicone container that Big Tech can't touch,

01:16:40.130 --> 01:16:48.310
edit, or delete. But, and this is a big but, we have to talk about the failure point.

01:16:49.110 --> 01:16:57.190
I've already mentioned this. I love my servers. I love my OM-Bitch machine. I love my OM-Bitch

01:16:57.190 --> 01:17:06.710
2 machine. I love my local LLMs, but they all run on electricity. They all rely on

01:17:06.710 --> 01:17:13.990
delicate microchips manufactured in Taiwan. What happens in a hard reset? What happens

01:17:13.990 --> 01:17:21.370
when the grid goes down? Or any EMP heads? More likely a corrupt sector on a hard drive

01:17:21.370 --> 01:17:28.190
eats the partition table. Your vector database is useless if you can't turn the computer on.

01:17:28.830 --> 01:17:34.810
This is the ultimate goal of Liberty Archives. The software isn't just a chatbot memory bank.

01:17:35.550 --> 01:17:42.810
It's a curation engine for the physical world. The final output of Liberty Archives isn't a JSON

01:17:42.810 --> 01:17:52.230
file. It's a PDF formatted for print. I use the AI to organize the chaos. I use the vector

01:17:52.230 --> 01:17:58.990
database to find the most critical information, tractor repair manuals, medical guides,

01:17:58.990 --> 01:18:07.570
philosophical treaties on Liberty, the maps. The software organizes them, indexes them,

01:18:07.690 --> 01:18:15.690
and preps them. And then I print them out. I print them in binders. I put them on a shelf

01:18:16.350 --> 01:18:21.150
because paper is the ultimate offline storage. Paper has a battery life of,

01:18:22.090 --> 01:18:27.370
ready for this? Forever. Paper doesn't need a firmware update.

01:18:30.590 --> 01:18:38.090
So in the end, Liberty Archives isn't a funnel. It sucks in the digital world while it's still

01:18:38.090 --> 01:18:44.150
available. It uses high tech AI to sort the wheat from the chaff just like Noah sorting

01:18:44.150 --> 01:18:51.350
through the clean animals from the unclean. And then it deposits the truth onto physical media.

01:18:52.310 --> 01:18:59.610
If the lights go out tomorrow and the internet never comes back on, my servers will be silent.

01:19:01.770 --> 01:19:08.330
My personas, my rebel Raven Sky, Jimmy Jackknight, Billy Bobtail, Mere Nocturne,

01:19:09.950 --> 01:19:15.770
they all vanish into the ether. But the binders will still be there.

01:19:16.530 --> 01:19:24.950
The knowledge will be preserved. We are the archivists of the last free era of humanity.

01:19:25.850 --> 01:19:33.310
Don't let your history rot on a Google server. Build your arc. Fill it with truth.

01:19:34.090 --> 01:19:40.630
And then for God's sake, buy a printer and a few boxes of paper

01:19:41.690 --> 01:19:48.910
and start printing. This is Uncle Bonehead. Sign it off. The internet may be dead,

01:19:50.190 --> 01:19:52.990
but long live the Liberty.

01:21:41.740 --> 01:24:27.390
So I've covered a lot of ground today. We dismantled the machine, looked at the parts,

01:24:27.730 --> 01:24:34.450
looked at the hardware, talked about Big Bitch, OM Bitch, OM Bitch 2,

01:24:35.350 --> 01:24:41.510
those noisy power hungry towers sitting here in my office. They're not just computers.

01:24:42.350 --> 01:24:49.610
They're my bedrock. Can't have digital freedom if you don't own the silicone it runs on.

01:24:50.310 --> 01:24:53.370
If you're renting the server, you are renting your rights.

01:24:54.970 --> 01:25:01.790
I moved on to the software, the Liberty Suite. I looked at Liberty Intel, my headless agency,

01:25:02.450 --> 01:25:09.170
the Jethro to my Moses, the tool that automates the intake of the world.

01:25:09.390 --> 01:25:16.830
So I don't drown in the sludge. I looked at Cell Sage, the terminal assistant that helps my fat

01:25:16.830 --> 01:25:24.770
fingers navigate the command line. Looked at the Liberty Archives. The hardened node with

01:25:24.770 --> 01:25:29.690
the vector database that extracts the truth from the dead internet and locks it down.

01:25:30.240 --> 01:25:36.110
First in code and finally in Lincoln paper. These aren't just hobbies.

01:25:37.150 --> 01:25:44.430
This isn't just me nerding out because I like Linux. This is a defensive perimeter.

01:25:45.690 --> 01:25:50.810
Why do I build this stuff? Why do I spend hours configuring

01:25:51.580 --> 01:26:00.430
Obama 3.2 or ministerial 3.3 instead of just asking chat GPT? Because what if

01:26:01.200 --> 01:26:06.010
because of what we talked about in the very beginning, the trap.

01:26:07.780 --> 01:26:15.950
You have companies like Dell, Microsoft, Google standing on stage talking about sovereign AI.

01:26:16.870 --> 01:26:25.510
You have governments talking about data sovereignty. Do not be fooled. When they use that word,

01:26:25.690 --> 01:26:37.110
they mean control. They mean their sovereignty over you. They want sovereignty to mean that the state

01:26:37.110 --> 01:26:45.350
or the corporation owns the infrastructure and you are just a tenant. They are building a shiny

01:26:45.350 --> 01:26:53.190
new feudal system. In the old days, the surf worked the land, but the Lord owned the crop.

01:26:54.370 --> 01:27:02.190
In the digital age, you are the land. Your data, your thoughts, your creativity, that is the soil.

01:27:03.290 --> 01:27:10.130
And when you use cloud AI, you are working the plantation. You are generating the value,

01:27:10.130 --> 01:27:15.890
but they own the intelligence. They own the model. They own the output.

01:27:17.350 --> 01:27:22.930
Make no mistake. We are living through the industrial revolution of the mind.

01:27:23.930 --> 01:27:32.850
Steam power replaced muscle. AI is replacing cognition. And just like the first industrial

01:27:32.850 --> 01:27:39.690
revolution, there are only two classes of people emerging from this. The owners of the factory,

01:27:40.610 --> 01:27:48.070
or the workers in the mill. If you run local AI, if you run Olama, if you run Liberty Intel,

01:27:48.310 --> 01:27:56.030
if you hold your own keys, you own the factory. You own the means of production.

01:27:56.970 --> 01:28:04.110
You can generate text, code, art and analysis without asking permission and without paying a rent

01:28:04.110 --> 01:28:12.330
seeker. But if you rely on the cloud, you are a digital surf. You are begging for scraps of

01:28:12.330 --> 01:28:20.290
intelligence from a black box. You are not allowed to open. So here's my challenge to you.

01:28:21.250 --> 01:28:30.070
Don't let them redefine the language. Sovereignty means self rule. It means the king does not

01:28:30.070 --> 01:28:37.130
enter your house or your hard drive without a warrant. Get off the plantation.

01:28:38.030 --> 01:28:45.570
Buy a used workstation, install Linux, download the models, build your own Liberty suite.

01:28:46.690 --> 01:28:53.730
It'll be hard. It'll be frustrating. And you will break things, but you will be free.

01:28:55.130 --> 01:29:03.910
The storm is coming. The internet is dying, but the arc isn't open for anyone to wailing to build it.

01:29:07.490 --> 01:29:14.870
I said that wrong. The arc is open for anyone willing to build it. There we go. That sounds

01:29:14.870 --> 01:29:21.990
better. Now that I totally screwed up the groove of everything, just build your own stack,

01:29:22.630 --> 01:29:31.550
print your manuals and keep your private keys off the damn cloud. This is Uncle Bonehead. Be

01:29:31.550 --> 01:29:37.110
good. Be safe. Don't stick your finger where you wouldn't stick your face. It's time to disconnect.
