I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 7 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Since first installing, setting up, and becoming enthralled with Hermes Agent and its agentic framework 10 days ago, I've been tracking its rapid development, as well as the innumerable new tools, plugins, and skills that are being created and released by the community. I've got a fairly solid local AI-agent setup right now, and I'm constantly seeking ways to improve and extend it, which is occurring at a notable pace.





One of the coolest and most fascinating developments that I'm seeing with Hermes-Agent framework is that it's quite quickly moving in the direction of becoming a full agentic operating system on its own, without me needing to implement anything to nudge it in that direction. I've been talking about the concept of an agentic operating system, or an AgentOS, and about my desire and intention to use Hermes to build one, for more than a week in these posts, and seeing the latest wave of updates from the Hermes developers, I must say that I've got quite a good bit of excitement bubbling, because it's going to make my AgentOS-building endeavors notably quicker and easier.





I'm anti-fad, but Hermes Agent is gaining a huge amount of interest and adoption very, very rapidly, already surpassing the previous king OpenClaw in certain metrics, and that trend seems to be accelerating. I definitely understand why people would be interested in it, as it's the most incredible meta-tool that I've ever used.





The capability for Hermes to control and manage an entire computer operating system has already begun testing on MacOS, with intense interest being expressed in the community around what is now possible. Integration for Windows, Linux, and Andoid is also in the works, of course. I'll be patiently waiting for a Linux release that's compatible with my Arch/Artix Linux systems, though with the pace of development, I really don't think that my wait will be very long at all.





The practical potential of this type of OS-level control and management remains to be seen, but the current possibilities are already extremely exciting, which is why I'm focusing so intensely on exploring and implementing them. What can I say, I'm a tech geek, and this kind of tech wizardry fascinates the fuck out of me.





Yesterday, Tuesday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by just about 3PM, giving my attention to some photography for my posts first, and then to a few small jungle-community tasks. When those were completed, I took a quick break up at the Flow House, after which I went to chop and dump bad/used coconuts at the upper coco bar, and to tidy up the area a bit, and to go on a trek around the property in search of harvestable bananas (none found this round). Once I had those done, I heated myself up some leftover food in Wabisabi, and with that and my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee in hands, I headed back to the Flow House, to do more agentic-AI research, to work with Hermes a bit more, and to begin my evening Hive tasks. I got everything on Hive done by just before 10PM, and after watching some very interesting YouTube videos on Hermes, I went to bed, a bit too late again, by around 12:30AM. I woke up just before 7AM, still feeling that I needed a little more sleep, doing more agentic-AI research and experimentation, working with Hermes some more, going to make my superfood fire coffee in Wabisabi, then returning to the Flow House to work with Hermes a tad more, and to write this post. It's now just before 1PM, so it's a very good time to wrap this up, so that I may attend to my few other important Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, before preparing for a session that's scheduled for 1:30PM. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's manifestation of these posts! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙






2026 Life Goals
1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.
2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.
3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.
4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
