We had a HAM radio operator talk to us about HAM radios, he told us there used to be 3 providers for satellite phones, they've all consolidated so now there is only one. They've lost several satellites. Satellite phones are very expensive and they are phasing them out from what he had to say so people need to do research on the satellite phones!

I started the lectures on Python in addition to the Beginners Linux class. I am on med leave right now due to a surgery. I am using this time to catch up on my Linux classes and now the python classes. This is a great way to learn it all! And make great use of time! Yay

Here is a recording of tonight's Live Audio Stream for those who could not be there live. In tonight's audio stream, JP discussed how we will organize our group of several hundred volunteers, students and tech industry veterans as we prepare to publish the first truly independent Free and Open Source Linux Operating System Distribution (Distro) built and managed by American Patriots.

And, we prepared you for a very special invited guest speaker who will speak on our channel, next week, Wednesday, Jan. 26th at 7:00pm EST.

In this group, we teach you how to move beyond 'big tech' tyranny by retaking complete control over your laptop, your computer, your technology devices at the 'chip and system level.' We teach you about the exciting world of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and the Linux computer Operating System. Linux is the future, it is Digital Freedom!

Hi Guys, i have a 2012 macbook, whats the best to install as a complete beginner

What linux distro is the best for a desktop computer in your opinion? Thanks.

Hi I have a chromebook I would like to wipe the os and put linux on it. It’s a better chromebook and new so I want the best version of linux on it so I can use it for all of my work, it says online gallium OS is the best option but I was hoping for insight

Oh definitely... I'm looking at videos and old school notes getting back into Linux

Even with the drop of knowledge i have lol... It's way better than windows. My PC boots up right away, it's insane haha

I don’t want to take the “easy way out” but I am overwhelmed. I tried to go back to the beginning of this chat to take notes but I’m getting so confused since there are so many “flavors”. Thanks if you can help.

3rd computer breaking free from big tech. Deleted Win 7, welcome Linux Manjaro. Now to connect printer, wish me luck! 🤞🏼🙏🏼

While exact statistics can be a challenge to find, it is clear use of the GNU/Linux OS vs. Windows grew significantly during the past three years, it grew by more than 50% from 2020 to 2021.

Source: "GNU/Linux Market Share is Surging, Up More Than 50% This Year", techrights blog, July 4, 2021.

"The Windows monopoly is eroding, but who or what grows at its expense? ... Looking at one data source we’ve long tracked, GNU/Linux ‘proper’ (Arch, Debian, Kylin, Gentoo and so on) is definitely on the rise ... the growth is a worldwide trend and it accelerated a lot this year."

Yet, the growth of Linux has had to occur organically -- people finding it themselves -- as the Free and Open Source computing movement has virtually no marketing budget.

This makes the rise of Linux to what we calculate as somewhere between 6% and 8% market share, or an increase of about 20 million computers in the U.S., in the past three years even more extraordinary to watch. That same percentage was lost by MS Windows. Something is happening.
