As many of you know, I've spent a lifetime immersed in the world of technology. Now, at this stage of life, I feel called to use my technical knowledge to serve God and spread His Word while helping my country in ways it is needed most.

There are few public voices today speaking to the vital need for decentralizing technology and returning it into the hands of ordinary Americans away from “big tech.” And at the dawn of Artificial Intelligence, a topic I’ve studied since I was a kid, I'm unaware of anyone advocating for both revitalizing people-driven technological innovation in ways that are not evil, and renewing Christian values in our society. There may be, but there should be more. It is crucial for this time in history.

Through the past few years, if you've followed the lessons of this channel, you’ve learned that the reason why people-driven software like FOSS isn’t more popular is because it’s never had marketing. There’s been limited personalities out there to promote the importance of reinvigorating innovation through people driven software. Richard Stallman is great, his contributions too numerous to possibly describe in a short paragraph, but his reach has been limited.

From here forward, I will do what I can to assist in the effort of promoting a shift away from “big tech”, on a larger scale. I will be taking an Operating System distribution to market, while constantly improving it over time, and evangelizing the importance of a decentralized technological revolution in North America by getting back to the basics and raising awareness of the importance of taking a hands-on approach to our individual digital sovereignty. Even a small, consistently maintained Linux distribution will develop a following of 50k to 100k users after a year, we should be able to exceed that by a good amount while promoting unique messaging that is needed.

All of this I will pursue while walking a thoughtful Christian path. My faith will guide me in developing technology that empowers individuals without forfeiting ethical values. I will promote all kinds of people-driven software, not just my own, with the goal of untangling the web of tyrannical big tech, helping the technology landscape in our country the way it is needed the most.

This Telegram group has been instrumental in catalyzing the early stages of my new path. You all have provided motivation, wisdom and resources that have set me off on what I promise to you is an important journey. As I now embark on the next chapter, I welcome you to join me going forward! Your continued insight and support will be invaluable as we work to enact positive change together.

Friends, it's been a productive two years. The Jeff.pro Linux User Group is making a difference, the results are in to prove it.

In order to keep moving forward, today we are starting our end of year fundraiser with a goal of reaching $10k by the new year. That goal should be met in the next few weeks.

The jeff.pro subscriber base is strong yet we are going to reach out in to new avenues in 2024 to spread our important messaging on a greater level. Help us get there with your donation today. And if you've been "on the fence" about learning ways to distance yourself from 'big tech', now is a great time to sign up for unlimited classes in the new year, as they always fill up ... join our fundraiser, get yourself a membership to be sure you have a reserved spot all year.

Tech evolution is moving fast. Help us continue our crucial work to build offramps from dystopian tech for Americans and chart our digital path for the future, help us work to educate more Patriots than ever before in 2024.

Friends, is it our imagination, or is the level of "red-pilling" out there significantly higher than in the past few years?

It's easy for us to say there's still way too many people "asleep" to the truths of the world. Yet, something feels a little different recently.

There's some hints that change is in the air.

What do you think?

The Digital World is changing.

If we sit back and do nothing, and let the "feature creep" of mandatory artificial intelligence, whole-system surveillance, and cloud computing take over our computers, we're walking right in to their plans for us.

There's a better way. Learn how to unplug your computers from their increasingly dystopian systems and take back control of your Digital life with FOSS and Linux. Start your Linux journey on the Jeff.pro forums -> forums.jeff.pro

Some people wrote in to ask about a fundraising email we sent out today regarding "lawfare" and attacks threatening the existence of Jeff.pro.

That's true, I believe many of us who walked away from old Democrat political connections have suffered the same. They just lie, and lie, and lie, to try to destroy you through the legal system. Incredibly vindictive people. I've heard conservatives call these types "jackals" and I think it's an accurate word to describe them. Somehow, in my case, their lies are finally being exposed in court, I'm very thankful for that. Not everyone is as lucky.

Great news about my (our) story, though, it's gotten much better over the years, at one point it was up to five or more "lawfare" lawsuits at the same time, in three states, with the former liberal Democrats I used to know, who came after me when I broke off from them, years ago. Haven't talked about it much publicly because I prefer to focus on the positive.

Now it's down to only one lawsuit that is left over. The truth is coming out more all the time about that remaining "lawfare", and it's not bad for me. It's bad for them, rightfully so. It's taken a long time to get to that point, however.

As for our Software Freedom initiatives, it's all moving in the right direction and seems like we will be able to reach a whole new audience, to continue growing the movement in a meaningful way, from here on. Have been working towards that for a long time.

So, I'm really encouraged. By the way, things would never have gotten this far if it were not for all the wonderful supporters of this channel.

A whole bunch of amazing new friends. I am truly blessed to know all of you.

I’ve read over six hundred posts this morning since opening my eyes, stopping on occasion to read the saucy stuff, too.

One of the reasons I like to take in a boatload of info in a short time is because it’s like seeing all the frames on a film reel at a pace that makes it look like a movie.

This morning the movie was much the same as yesterday. We continue to trend positive.

The truth is being exposed while the narratives are beaten down before they can spread.

I know this post may seem repetitive, but it was not so long ago that the truth was hidden, the narratives were working and the voices of reason were virtually silent.

So much has changed for the better, yet much like when we put a fresh coat of paint on a wall and nearly instantly forget what the wall looked like before, it is so very easy to think that what we see now has always been normal.

We are far along the path of winning the information war and we are always moving in the right direction.

Stay comfy.

Chaos will rain supreme prior to the election either by cyber, power down, terrorist attacks or a combination. Their goal will be to declare Marshall Law and suspend the election before it is held, a.k.a. Ukraine

There was a time when Radio Shack was popular enough to be the anchor store in malls 😊

Pretty sure I'd take the A-team van, and bring a few of the channel admins along

Go to sleep my Son
This manger for your bed
You have a long road before You
Rest Your little head
Can You feel the weight of Your glory?
Do You understand the price?
Or does the Father guard Your heart for now
So You can sleep tonight?
Go to sleep my Son
Go and chase Your dreams
This world can wait for one more moment
Go and sleep in peace
I believe the glory of Heaven
Is lying in my arms tonight
But Lord, I ask that He for just this moment
Simply be my child.
Go to sleep my Son
Baby, close Your eyes
Soon enough, You'll save the day
But for now, dear Child of mine
Oh my Jesus, Sleep tight.

I decided to install cnix on my aged HP Pavilion dv9000us, and I admit it went snoothly. Installed beside the current installation, came up nicely, and breathed new life in this machine based on AMD64 with dual cpus. My background is 95% linux during the last 20 years before I retired from being a kernel/systems architect at multiple companies. My verdict is that cnix is nicely done, and I will definitely be following your work and contributing if I spot something I can help with.

Since this past weekend, have been watching a fairly sophisticated, definitely very large scale "flood" Denial of Service type attack against North American internet infrastructure, although that's not exactly what it is. Somewhat more advanced than your typical DDOS attack, it's moving around faster than the typical DDOS which stays fixed in one place. Among other characteristics.

Curiously, one of the well known websites most affected by this "flood" attack is Rumble.com , although many other sites are affected.

It's being reported as a "Chinese Cyber Attack" ... "against Western Infrastructure," but, I'm not so sure.

If you had to guess, who or what do you think is flooding websites and CDN's on the North American continent, many of which just so happen to be related "independent media", trying to take them offline?

Anyway, eventually it will pass. In the meantime, if some of your favorite websites are slow or offline, it's because of these "flooding attacks."

If you are running Linux on your computers, they cannot execute Windows viruses.

A Windows virus will not natively execute on a Linux computer. Even if you find a Windows virus file on a computer running Linux, and try to run it on purpose, it won't execute. It can't.

Linux operates with completley different source code, it is a complete replacement for the Bill Gates Operating System (Microsoft Windows) on your computers.
