Mike Tyson speaks common sense.

โ€œWhen I was younger, I was all-out liberal. But as I get older and I look at my children and I see whatโ€™s out in the world, I get a little conservative. Itโ€™s common sense, looking at the world and the state itโ€™s in right now, you want safety.โ€

Amen. Thanks Mike! ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

Microsoft Windows has many privacy and security vunerabilities -- do you trust it with your files, your pictures, your personal data?

If have followed the Jeff.pro channel for some time, you are already well aware of certain privacy and security risks in Microsoft Windows.

Did you know there are consistently so many vunerabilities found in Windows that for almost twenty years, Microsoft has dedicated one day of every month to releasing "patches" and updates to the Windows software?

The day is called "Microsoft Patch Tuesday" and it often calls for hundreds of updates, some which are updates of prior updates.

Here's a sample of how many updates were released in MSFT's "Patch Tuesday" for August, 2022. Spoiler alert: It's a LOT. Why does the mainstream population still trust Microsoft with their digital lives?

Democrat corruption is so brazen at this point, they don't even try to hide it any more.

Pelosi does whatever she wants while continually seeking to destroy conservatives.

Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt said the Justice Department refused to produce communications between its officials and social media companies, so lawyers filed a petition with the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana to compel the government to produce the documents.

โ€œWe have already received a number of documents that clearly prove that the federal government ...clearly coordinates with Social Media companies to censor freedom of speech, but weโ€™re not done,โ€ Mr. Schmitt said in a statement.

the Texas Instruments TI-99/4A home computer (1981)

Texas Instruments was a U.S. based technology company ahead of its time. In 1981 they released the TI-99 home computer. It used a microprocessor they made themselves, the TMS9900 @ 3 MHz. It was the first 16-bit home computer. Powerful for back then.

In 1979, Texas Instruments was the largest semiconductor manufacturer in the world. They made a lot of their profit from the sale of larger business computer systems and handheld calculators. An example of what American innovation can beโ€ฆTIโ€™s technology was way ahead of anything the Asian countries could manufacture back then.

While we are on the topic of Texas Instruments, the TI Speak and Spell became the most popular electronic educational spelling toy in history.

TI engineer Paul Breedlove (picture: center right) invented the Speak and Spell for his daughter to help teach her how to spell. Breedlove is an important electrical engineer in American and Texas history as he also invented one of the first microprocessors when he worked for Motorola. He was a graduate of Texas Tech University and SMU.

Paul was awarded the Consumer Electronics Award in 1993 by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers. He is now resting in the kingdom of Jesus.
