I'm thinking of getting a new laptop. It should be
- lightweight
- Linux compatible
- allow for extending RAM and storage
- run DaVinci Resolve for short 4k projects
- run local LLMs decently
Any suggestions? #asknostr

I'm driven by two fundamental beliefs that shape how I see the world and guide my actions.
**Justice and human dignity are universal.** I stand with Palestine 🇵🇸 because I believe in the fundamental right of all people to live freely in their homeland, to raise their families in safety, and to determine their own future. The Palestinian struggle represents something larger—the fight against oppression and for basic human rights that should belong to everyone, everywhere.
**Systems should serve everyone equally.** I advocate for Bitcoin because it represents something revolutionary: a financial system with the same rules for everyone, no matter who you are, where you live, or how much power you hold. No central authority can print money for themselves, freeze your account, or change the rules mid-game. It's about creating true financial sovereignty and breaking down the barriers that keep people from participating in the global economy on equal terms.
These causes might seem
People are often offended by the knowledge they need most. We resist our deepest education... While we seek agreement, protection, and security, our best path forward may be toward discomfort.

What the Israelis are doing in Palestine is the best measure we have of what is possible when the moral sense innate to humanity is destroyed by inhumane beliefs.
Religion protects humanity from seeing its complicity in the violence that infects religious beliefs.

*Drugh*, "the Lie," is a advanced form of error that readily blurs into evil. Deceit is evil, even when those who practice it do so in error and blindness, out of sheer ignorance.

Thanks for putting it in context:
“Us humans have been and should continue to be governed by the immutable laws of mother nature. Not by some unelected or self-appointed bank.
Let mother nature govern us. Gold is governed by mother nature because it's a natural element that we found in the ground. Bitcoin is governed by mother nature because of proof of work.
So let our time, energy, effort, labor, and trade be governed by mother nature. Immutable laws we were born into on this world.”

Unless there is internal force for resistance, psychic immunity, so to speak, the individual psyche will adapt to the stress of collective imagination. It will become what it believes and forget what it knows.

There is plenty of hatred circulating on this planet, and most of it seems to be coming from people who are devoutly religious.

Why do we betray our humanity in the name of our spiritual principles?
