Have a blessed Sunday, everyone! I am glad to take part in this channel in the quest for our digital freedom.

First of all thanks Jeff for this!!!
Running Linux mint on my 2015 MacBook Pro as a virtual machine. Gonna make the full switch soon. Before I do I have tons of photos on my Mac. I know windows and Mac don’t play well as far as photos. Does anyone have advice about phots with Mac and Linux???
Thanks in advance.

So I work from home and my work sent me a new computer, said they re imaged it. How do I know what if any spying devices like key loggers stuff like that did they install on it?

Learn the IT guy’s name and type stuff about his mama. If he ever says something, he’s spying

I think it is safe to assume that your company is monitoring you. Some will even disclose that fact to you. The unknown is are they also probing your network and collecting other information. To be absolutely safe it's best to use only that machine for work only. Isolate by disconnection after finished. This is a new security concern for the work from home economy.

Yes, there is no expectation of privacy when using employer-supplied equipment. Cover camera when not in use and shutdown laptop when you are done for the day.

What about Evernote.I am replacing one note with Evernote and I found it to be so much easier and it syncs across all devices.

I was logging in to my Linux machine just now and was putting in my pw, and I thought to myself, "Wow, it's really cool to know that I own my keystrokes."

Wow thank you all!!! All this info is a lot to unpack. Taking it all in, then going to start the troubleshooting process. I'll keep you updated on how it all goes.
I love this channel and I love you all!! What a truly amazing group!! 💕😁😎👊🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I recently started using Joplin, lots of features and sync possibilities. Going to transfer my Evernote to this and combine it with my own nextcloud.

Sidenote, development for Joplin started when Evernote changed its pricing model and limited the number of devices that could access the notes.

Ok, I picked up a pixel 3. can someone direct me to a good page to instruct me on loading ubuntu touch?

I exported all my iTunes music onto an external hard drive in mp3 format. I had roughly 16,000 songs. It takes a few hours. I imported the music into rhythmbox. iTunes will convert to MP3

For those of you who have written asking for more "JP stories," (who would have thought?!?!) it's becoming a tradition to share these with you on Sunday evenings, before the start of the new week. And, if you think they're boring, the good news is, there will be plenty of tech talk starting up again tomorrow morning 🤣🙌

Last week, we shared a story with you about how JP 'accidentally' ended up assigning television news commentator Sean Hannity his first time slot on the public airwaves, years ago (late-1980's) when Jeff worked as 'traffic manager' (program scheduler) at KCSB-FM, a radio station in his home town of Santa Barbara, California. That is a true story! Jeff even helped defend Sean at a hearing in front of hundreds of people, from the very mean Elizabeth Robinson, who sacked Hannity from his show after Sean made some 'controversial' comments on the air. lol. It may have been Jeff's first run-in with controversy. (JP pictured, front-left. Way too young for that job...!!)

Back then, while working at radio stations, Jeff made another friend in his home town, J.R. Richards. J.R. was a young aspiring musician who had a mutual friend with Jeff.

At the time, J.R. had a band called "Life Talking." Jeff got the band its first public attention by playing their music on KCSB-FM, later KHTY-FM 97.5, and KIIS-FM 102.7FM in Los Angeles. Shortly thereafter, J.R.'s band changed its name to "Dishwalla," and they went on to become a powerhouse on the American rock and roll charts for a long time.

It was J.R.'s song, "Counting blue cars," and it's lyrics, "Tell me all your thoughts on God," that sparked Jeff's interest in his journey back towards Christianity.

J.R. and Jeff remained friends through present-day. J.R. is an amazingly talented musician and song writer with one of the "biggest voices" in modern rock. While a lot of his music is classified as "rock and roll," he covers many musical genres. Despite having top-10 hits that are playing somewhere in the world right now, J.R. is a humble guy, one of the most down to earth performers you will know. For your Sunday evening, here's J.R. Richards performing "Angels or devils." Talk to you soon, friends! 👍👏

"As mainstream computer and mobile operating systems move towards tyranny,
As machines begin to think,
As citizens are told to disengage from technological innovation,
As Silicon Valley and Washington focus solely on profits, where it's never enough,
As foreign governments increasingly act to bribe and buy our politicians,
As Silicon Valley acts as a branch of tyrannical government,
Who will stop them?
Who will fix America's dependence on 'big tech'?

We will. We the people.
The people of America,
One Nation under God.
We need to start working on this now.
It's more important than you may imagine."

Running Mint on a Dell from 08 using it to take a learn Linux course on Udemy while a windows machine behind me grinds away on one of its endless updates.

So…. Have a general question… What is the best password manager in your opinion??? And are there any thoughts on Dashlane? I am thinking of using them because they also have a built in VPN. Eventually I’m planning on making my own vpn. But for now, any thoughts?
