With Tesla being dropped from the ESG score, could this have freed his company? Would more companies follow suit if the ESG were destroyed. Would we see a lot less woke advertising and companies abandoning social justice causes? Musk himself is not really important to this but the push-back against the ESG.

July 2nd @ 5:00pm ET) are being sent out to your email right now! (If you can't be there live, the wekeend workshops are always recorded so you can watch them later on the LMS!)

This week, Digital Prepping with Linux! Independent minded? Planning ahead? Hopefully it never does, but if the stuff hits the fan, the last place you want your Digital Life to be is stuck on a Windows computer.

We discuss one of your most requested topics, why Linux is the absolute best option for low cost, off-grid wireless radio and emergency communications, away from mainstream telco providers, that will work even if cell towers and communications lines are down!

And for those who want to achieve Digital Freedom with Linux, but may still depend on a Windows computer, we revisit the fastest and easiest way to acquire a cheap Linux laptop, step-by-step!

If you can't make it to this weekend's live workshop, don't worry, it will be recorded (as always) and posted in our LMS system, for you to view with your login and password, any time you like!

The NeXT computer was launched in October 1988, initially developed for the higher education market. It had a 25 Mhz Motorola 68030 CPU. It ran the "NeXTSTEP" operating system, based on BSD Unix.

Fun fact: a NeXT computer was used by Tim Berners-Lee in 1991 as the first web server on the current version of the World Wide Web.
