🤖Humanoid Robots Are Here

Imagine a worker who never tires, never complains about heat or cold, and can keep going day after day with the same output. That’s the promise behind Boston Dynamics’ Atlas, a fully bipedal robot that could soon be sharing a factory floor with humans.

Atlas stands 6.2 ft tall with 56 independently controlled joints, can reach almost 8 feet, routinely lift 66 lb, and handle up to 110 lb. It operates from 4°F to 104°F and can swap its own battery every 3 to 4 hours to keep working with minimal downtime.

Will robots like this replace human workers? What would our world look like if humanoid robots took over monotonous jobs? Would it stay at those types of jobs are bleed into everything?

📑Finding a Private Knowledgebase That Works

I have been testing private PKM tools for years, trying to find something powerful without the usual privacy tradeoffs. My latest find is Anytype, and it has been working well for me so far.

What stands out is how it is built to work offline. You can use it without constant syncing, and you can even sync devices inside your local network without connecting to the outside world. It also asks for zero personal data. No email, no phone number, just an encryption key you get as a seed phrase.

The main drawback is storage for files. The base tier gives 100 MB for uploads, so images and attachments add up fast unless you pay. Also worth noting, Anytype is funded by VC firms, so keep your eyes open.

What are you using for your PKM?

I'm settling into my next educational project about AI Data Centers and the impacts we'll see — this work is going to be mostly U.S focused since most of the DCs are being built here.

What would you like to know about your local data centers? Would a massive ecological impact of a data center influence your decision to live in that location?

Is there any use in making people aware of the ecological dangers? Is there any real way to withdraw our consent?

Friends,

The People's Reset Activation Starts This Wednesday at 10 am US Central. The Activation will be streaming for FREE from 10-12:30 pm and then resuming at 2 pm through 5 pm all the way through Sunday February 1st.

For 5 days, 400 people from more than a dozen countries will be gathering in Morelia, Mexico for a 100% solutions-focused activation exploring 5 holistic themes, including:

Liberate Your Mind, Body & Soul
Permaculture & Food Independence
Agorism & Parallel Networks
Empowering Technology
Building Free & Conscious Communities

If you are sick of hearing about the problems of the world, and seeing constant division, and looking for ACTUAL practical, applicable solutions you can implement in your lives and your communities - don't miss this!

We've brought together a powerful lineup of speakers from Mexico, US, Canada, and Europe to share their ideas on how we can build a better world for the coming generations and opt out of the Technocratic State.

Seriously, if you're feeling blackpilled, or hopeless, this is the event YOU NEED!

I've been hosting and producing the Activation since 2020 and every year we hear from people how the event has changed their lives and I see them actually making real change.

This isn't left and right garbage. This isn't fake political "solutions" or hero worship.

This is a movement focused on protecting bodily autonomy and self-ownership and encouraging Activation and Action over simply being "awake".

If you're ready to take charge of your life, then tune in to The People's Reset 2026 starting on Wednesday morning.

Check our website to learn more and see all the speakers.

Thanks for your support!

⚡️Complex Systems Break Unpredictably

I recently was able to sit down with Chris Martenson over at Peak Prosperity. He mentioned how many of the systems we rely on—financial, legal, technological—are actually faith-based systems. They work because we believe they work. But complex systems can absorb stress only up to a point before they shift suddenly into something new.

That’s why I keep coming back to resilience: building skills, growing food, strengthening community, and understanding what’s actually happening around us. We may not have billion-dollar budgets, but we do have each other—and that matters more than most people realize.

🤔 What does resilience look like to you right now?

⚡️Machine Learning and Deep Learning: Understanding the Layers

In this segment from one of our recent webinars, we dive into what machine learning and deep learning actually mean. It’s all about how AI models learn from labeled data—like those old CAPTCHA images—and how they build up layers of understanding to recognize patterns, whether it's a cat or something else. The key takeaway: the quality of the data shapes how good the AI is.

Curious about using AI ethically and locally? Check out our webinar: Empowerment with Ethical, Local, and Private AI.
