🚨 BREAKING: Someone just open-sourced a full offline survival computer with AI, Wikipedia, and maps built in. Project N.O.M.A.D. is an open-source offline survival computer. Self-contained. Zero internet required after install. Zero telemetry. Everything runs locally on your hardware. What it includes: → Full Wikipedia archives via Kiwix → Offline maps via OpenStreetMap → Local AI models via Ollama + Open WebUI → Calculators, reference tools, resource libraries → A management UI to control everything from a browser One curl command installs the entire system on any Debian-based machine. Runs headless as a server so any device on your local network can access it. Minimum specs to run the base system: dual-core processor, 4GB RAM, 5GB storage. To run local LLMs offline, you want 32GB RAM and an NVIDIA RTX 3060 or better. No accounts. No authentication by default. No cloud dependency. No phone-home behavior. Built to function when nothing else does. The grid, the cloud, the API you depend on. None of it is guaranteed. The people building local-first systems right now are the ones who won’t be asking for help when access disappears.

GOLD TELEGRAPH CONVERSATION 13: PIERRE LASSONDE “Gold is coming back into the global financial architecture, and it’s coming back in a big way.” Join me for a timely conversation with the legendary Pierre Lassonde. In this discussion, Pierre explains why a crisis is already building beneath the surface, why gold is returning to the center of the global financial system, and why the world is entering a period defined by minerals and evolving monetary power.
