Amen! Project Veritas has uncovered many many things and you are correct. It isn't easy. 👍

Yes. It all starts with the decision to improve one's understanding of technology. It is a journey that will not be done "overnight" unless you are highly motivated--in which case you can transform yourself with immersion in a matter of 2 or 3 months. For most people, it will take some time, but with the right attitude and a commitment to continuous learning, you can be in a whole new world within six months to a year. Having the right friends and mentors makes a big difference. Many will also find technology to be a great hobby. Especially in the world of LInux and opensource, where everything is either free or super inexpensive...several Patriots here have been looking at the Rasberry Pi Linux computer, which can purchased from many vendors for around $100.

If you are new to Linux, there are many variants. The most popular are the Debian variants like Ubuntu, Mint, Raspberry Pi OS and Mate. Switching from one to another is very easy so don't worry about picking the wrong one.

You could also pick up a used computer and install linux. Linux is a great way to make use of used/older computers.

Do not be scared of playing around with it. Once the "average" joe experiences this process, you will realized the digital machine world is fairly straight forward.

Linux basically boils down to three overall systems:

1. Arch based distros, using the pacman package manager.

2. Debian based distros using the apt package manager.

3. Red Hat based distros using yum and rpm package management.

A Linux distro, such as Mint or Ubuntu, will then put a default desktop environment on one of these three main systems. The desktop environment is generally what determines how your settings "control panel" looks. and functions.

Some of the most popular desktop environments are:

1. KDE Plasma
2. GNOME
3. Cinnamon
4. MATE
5. Xfce

All the software is the same, regardless of which core distro your distro is based on, or which desktop environment is installed.

Gotta say, I love this chat! Gotten more useful information in the last hour than anywhere else!

My 75 year old Dad (retired industrial engineer) just replaced Windows with Linux Mint on his HP laptop and loves it!

It's a very stable OS, he won't be disappointed. I run Ubuntu for my main desktop, it's fast and has expansive software (most of it free).

Seriously Tho

A warm welcome to new Telegram followers! As many of you know already, we have been talking a lot about Technology, a little about politics. Many of the subscribers to this channel are American Patriots, concerned with corruption in Washington, D.C. and in the media. Our goal here is to educate our followers about how to take back control of your technology from the evil overlords ("big tech"), while keeping it interesting. Hopefully over time, you will learn something from our posts and the technology chat room attached to this channel.

There is a lot to learn and talk about so we aim to help everyone a little further down the path of technical knowledge, little by little, week by week. We promote the message that technology is not as hard to learn about as some people may think, it's probably not "too late" in your life to learn, and learning will help empower you to do many new things.

I haven't seen anyone bring up website hosting yet. This is also important. We moved all of our websites and domains to Epik (Sibyl) several months ago in order to avoid being cancelled. We are self-employed and wanted to protect that part of our business as much as possible. The people at Epik are great to work with and we've been pleased. They are not the cheapest, but we concluded they were one of the safest options. (I have no connection other than being a customer.)

We heard from a young entrepreneur in Chicago who was trained in network architecture by the United States Army. He now employs a team of more than twenty in his own highly succesful, fast growing home security camera installation business. His team has developed it's own SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) dashboard and is earning recurring subsription revenues from a loyal base of customers.

We received an email from a retired former school teacher in Texas who learned Java programming in his 60's and now earns a steady income part time from freelance computer systems administration jobs, working remote, at home.

We started our technology chat room with about 100 Patriots interested in technology this past weekend, it's grown to about 350 today. We have been discussing taking back your digital freedom from the evil tech overlords, by moving away from Microsoft Windows/MacOS and learning the free opensource Linux operating system.

I own a digital marketing agency. We offer a number of marketing services, most centered around Google or social media, either paid or organic. I’m trying to figure out how to help local small businesses with their marketing and NOT generate dollars for satanic communist Big Tech.

I want to be part of this tech movement. Thanks for adding me!

Thank God for good people🙏❤️💪❤️🙏

Update: A lot of people here have been asking me, due to my background as a founder of one of the top-20 Social Media sites in the history of the U.S., and advocacy for technology, if I support digital or paper ballots for voting.

My answer is that for now, because it is essential to get a consensus from all Americans about voting integrity, I believe the machines should be thrown out and all-paper ballots would be my preference. Furthermore, I believe vote audits should be supported by all Americans regardless of political preference. Demanding voting integrity is as American as apple pie.
