Can't find a good church?

Find a few friends and gather.

Read the Word together.

Sing a song, even if your voice quavers a bit.

It will do you good.

❗️The Right to Modify Hardware and Software for Personal Use

In addition to having the right to choose between Free Open Source Software (FOSS) and proprietary software, we believe that we should also have the right free from corporate hindering to modify hardware and/or software for our own use.

From Admin @Slamminbones:

"I'm not sure if this is common knowledge now or not, but according to repair . org : "The U.S. Copyright Office has determined that users should be able to tinker with their firmware to perform security research, improve security and detach devices from from default passwords.""

However, we know that this is not always the case with Big Tech corporations such as Apple, Google, and Microsoft, for example.

Another admin suggested: "...(D)oes anyone have contacts to some decent congressmen ? I've thought about making some proposals on 'right to run your own OS' and rights on (technical specifications) for writing your own drivers, basically prohibiting...the '(Hardware-&-Software)-as-one-product' combination. By my proposal, a (Hardware) vendor MUST provide specs so people can write drivers on their (own), failing to do so (would lead) to full ban from the market."

We, The People can get this moving by bringing this to the attention of our elected representatives at the state and federal level and demanding that this issue be addressed and resolved in a constitutional manner. You can also reference the link below for more information on repair . org.

On this Telegram channel, we teach Patriots how to defeat tyrannical 'big tech' organizations like Microsoft (Windows), Apple, Google, and more, by learning to use Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and the Linux Operating System.

We go beyond the concept of 'alternate platforms', to the place where you need to be to truly take back control -- the operating system level -- and show you how to get complete control over your technology, once and for all. Linux is the future, it is Digital Freedom!

I have a 5 year old Acer that would load but Would freeze once it would open making it impossible to download anything. Any suggestions on how I can wipe out windows and load Linux?

Sorry I should have answered this as I have recently been experimenting with these types of things. The media players I have encountered in Linux are full of features and outclass anything found in windows.

What's the best Linux operating system if you want to have the option of doing art and animation? Can't stand Windows. Have a pretty new laptop with 16 GB Installed RAM. 64 bit operating system.

I ditched Facebook back in 2010. People look at me strange when I mentioned that.

Do it, FB sucks. I haven't used FB in years and couldn't be happier. I get all of the social media I need from Telegram.

Windows is full of stuff I never use and only gets in the way of the things I do use. Over bearing, tyrannical, system.

Hey Jeff and other's just wanted to let everyone know that i got recently a pixel 5a.... Then I instantly loaded calyxos on it.... Life couldn't be more simple now... ✌️peace lads

Anybody have any experience with wearables for degoogled android? Was thinking about trying PineTime. Mainly I want to get notifications

Happy Sunday, Friends! 🥳 How's everyone doing on your Free and Open Source Software Journeys? How are you liking the Linux Operating System? Are you learning anything?

Just checking-in! Let me know how you're doing in the comments!

Friends, here's a great Telegram channel, published by one of our Admins here at Jeff.pro, Patriots Quest. Great Linux and tech oriented content, consider giving him a follow!

I have been with Apple (Mac) since college (I’m 57 now) and iPhone since it came out. I listened to Jeff’s first talk in September and it definitely peaked my interest. As I listened to him more and started learning about Linux, I jumped on board and tried it because he hit the nail on the head: Big tech can’t be trusted and I don’t want my data harvested anymore! I bought an old MacBook Pro (2015) off Craigslist and it has been my learning ground. I am now switching EVERYTHING (system, files, phone, and all email accounts). I use Ubuntu and love it. I have a de-googled Pixel with Lineage and am learning it. I created my VPS and VPN. All has been a steep learning curve but definitely doable with the teaching and help of Jeff and the team. Like everyone, I don’t have a ton of free time, but we all make happen what is priority to us. Freedom is priority right now. I am basically at a dual system stage and hope to be completely Apple free by the first of the year or so (switching my business accounting will take a bit as I use Quickbooks).
I am so thankful to Jeff, his awesome team, and all in this community for what they have done and what is coming! Keep it up and may Jesus be glorified in all this community accomplishes! 🙏🏼🇺🇸

Together we are making a difference! Since launching on Sept. 11th, 2021, this community has educated and helped more than 5,000 American Patriots move away from 'big tech' computer Operating Systems like the Bill Gates-designed Microsoft Windows, MacOS and Android, to Free and Open Source (FOSS) Linux. Linux is the future!

Thanks to the following Admins, who run and look out for the Jeff.pro Telegram channel: Will, Shane, Slamminbones, Caleb, Vasileios, Patriots Quest, Dragonfly33, Cnturion, Little Hummer, SBHX, and VADCIntel Pvt.

We couldn't do it without your support and enthusiasm! We are proving every week that OS independence from 'big tech' will be possible. Join us in the new year as we continue our fight for your Digital Freedom!

Maybe you've heard someone you know say, at some point:

"I'm not interested in technology."
"I don't really know about technology,"
"I don't have time for that technology stuff,"
"I'm just a simple man, technology isn't for me,"
"That's a problem for the next generation,"
"I'm too old to be interested in technology"

or something similar.

At this very moment, 9 of the 10 most valuable companies in the WORLD -- (not just the U.S.) -- are technology companies, they are destroying small business and altering our society in ways many never expected.

This change has happened in the past ten to fifteen years, while America said the things you read above.

This post is not made to offend anyone. I love my fellow Americans very much.

We say every week on this channel, it's not too late to change the course of history.

But we've got to get more involved. It is clear what happens when We the People blindly trust without being involved.

This group is full of brave, courageous Patriots who are up for the challenge.

We're proving it's possible, every week.

The technology industry in its short history has always been an ebb and a flow, of boom and bust, growth and consolidation phases. At this moment, the political left has a huge head start over the rest of America in the technology sector, and they're milking it for all they can.

Let's take a step back and face reality.

The time for Americans get more involved, (again), with technology is now, before the machines start thinking.

We cannot blindly trust 'big tech' any more with the future of our nation, and the world.

It is one of the most important messages of our time.

"Free and Open Source Software is one of those hobbies, careers or skills in life where more or less everything about it is good. I put it up there with good sports like baseball, exercise like running, or some other knowledge like healthy cooking or farming. When you learn what FOSS is, it's hard not to like it. And it is our way forward, away from 'big tech.'

Software is best when we know what's in it, that's what is so important about the concept of Open Source Software. We have no idea what's inside the code for Windows. Linux is a replacement for Windows, it is a Free and Open Source Operating System for your computer and technology devices."
