Then we look at a new de-googled Mobile model phone recently released in to the Open Source world. Now that you know better options exist, why let yourself be locked in to off the shelf Android or Apple's iOS on your mobile device, like everyone else?

In a complicated world, learn how easy it can be to take back complete control of your computers and achieve Digital Freedom, with Linux, a complete replacement for the "big tech" Microsoft Windows on your computers!

See you online tomorrow @ 5:00pm Eastern!

Thanks for the memories, old friend!

Anyone remember taking multiple choice tests on “scan-tron” forms at school? 🤣

When you were connecting to AOL on your local dial-up number 😂

PRAYER

Heavenly Father, we seek Your wisdom through Scripture's divine authority. Open our ears to Your voice in Your Word.

Uplift and renew our spirits, dear Lord, when we are feeling down or tired. We need You. Fortify us with strength from Your righteous hand, to meet what the world asks from us in the week ahead.

Give us courage to stand for biblical values, speaking truth in love. Protect our families from immorality seeking to destroy this nation founded on Your principles.

Lord, let truth rise up as You renew America by Your Spirit. Guide us to be a light, that all would know Your saving love.

We ask Your blessings on all patriots defending liberty, in the name of Your beautiful Son who reigns eternally, Jesus Christ.

Amen.

If you’ve been following recent news about Russell Brand being “cancelled” by Youtube, you may find this interesting.

Apparently, someone in the UK Parliament wrote to the Rumble video platform, asking them to de-platform Russell, and Rumble refused the request. This is Rumble’s letter about it, published today.

They’ll never tell you this in real life.

When you’ve had enough, and decide to do something about it, this channel will teach you a better way to do your computing. Take back your digital privacy and freedom by learning about Free and Open Source Software with the Linux Operating System, a complete replacement for Microsoft Windows on your computers.

Throwback 2019 #bengarrison cartoon- Thomas Jefferson warned us about the Federalists who favored a strong central government and empire.
The Big Government Kraken
And what happened to the Fourth Estate? The truth-telling watchdog was snagged by the Deep State monster long ago. Now we must rely on citizen journalists to do investigative journalism and tell us the truth.

Not quite what we had in mind but, who knows, maybe this hair dryer does run on Unix? 🤣

Have a great day frens!

Some images take us back to a point in time, instantly!

Apple Lisa, the computer that never really was. Sold for three years, from 1983 to 1986.

Compact Disc and CD-RW drives.

These seem to have vanished from the market fairly quick.

Anyone remember “burning a CD” with your favorite tunes? 😂

My first job using a computer was as a wood truss designer, a technician type job, using a Lear Siegler ADM-3A connected to a GE 600 series (I think) main frame computer with a whopping 3 meg HD. The thing was huge by modern standards. That was back in about 1982, before many here were born.

👆One of the great things about the Jeff.pro channel is how many talented tech frens with generational experience joined over the past few years, who offer their skills and experience to help in the ongoing conversation about what’s broken and what needs fixing.

We salute all of you and hope technology companies in our country can someday get back to a place where the trends are moving in a direction to work for We the People, instead of against us!
