Friends, we will be opening slots for our first FOSS/Linux course, first thing early tomorrow (or possibly late tonight). After you enroll, it will start Monday, and I will take everyone on a journey to learning Linux from zero, starting at the "beginner" level, for at least three months. I will do the first class. We are using a very nice LMS (learning management system) so you will be able to study and do quizzes throughout the week on your phone, tablet or on your computer in a web browser. We purchased 250 seats for the LMS software because that is about what we estimate is correct for the first batch. If you want to be in our course and move along with our group, be sure to be ready to sign-up tomorrow when we post the link. If you want to learn on your own, there are tons of free resources we will continue to post links to. Another good site where you can find Linux courses is Udemy. Thanks everyone!

P.S. I am sure we will do some more classes so don't worry if you are not in the first one, but someone else will probably be teaching. I do plan to continue writing and posting on the free blog and newsletter, though, for the foreseeable future.

A bunch of people are asking how much, first of all no one has to buy anything if you just want to use our free blog and newsletter. We will post a lot of content there over time. It all just takes a while to get going but we are working as fast as we can. Our paid course is $20/month, some people asked for it to be lower but we are producing a high quality product and actually paying for a mobile Learning Management System (LMS) software ourselves so that is how we will start. Udemy has a bunch of good courses, you can check the course ratings, many of them go on sale there for $19.95 - $39.95. Our is a monthly subscription but you can cancel at any time, most casual Linux users can probably learn everything they need in a month or two. Thanks!!

Thank you Jeffrey Peterson!! You are an amazing American/Patriot!! God bless you & your family!! I’m looking forward to learning from you!! LET’S FIRE BIG TECH/BILL GATES!!

Here is a audio recording of tonight's Telegram voice call for those who were not able to be there live. Best wishes to you, Patriots, as you set out to discover the very robust world of Free and Open Source technology. If you, like us, are ready to leave the spying and abuses of the "big tech" Windows/MacOS/Android operating systems, Linux is Digital Freedom!

I`m not computer savvy at all. I down loaded mint today and installed telegram and a vpn. Thanks to all here who helped.

Linux is not in pieces. The typical Linux "distribution" comes as a whole system, just like when you install MS Windows.

It actually comes with more software, and more useful software than a typical MS Windows install.

If your hardware supports Linux, it is easier to install than Windows, and it is far easier to maintain. It might not seem easier at first, but once you learn it it's really hard to go back to Windows, at least for me.

Here are instructions on how to try out the Linux Mint distribution on a USB flash drive, and install it if you like it.

I dug an old puter out today and am having my friend install Linux on it. I cannot wait to get it back! Thank you for all the information!

Today I installed Ubuntu Linux on an old 32 bit machine I had. Completely scrapped windows which was so slow it was virtually unusable. Now it’s a great machine again!

Just heard the recorded call from tonight, thank you Jeffrey. Awesome info.

we should get all our kids off of iPads and on Raspberry Pis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes. LibreOffice works just as good as MS Office, and it comes with most Linux distros.

Tried Ubuntu on my work laptop last night and it worked great! Now I am going to try Mint Cinnamon and convert our old desktop and all in one to Linux!

I think we have windows on our computer upstairs I would be happy to learn the new technology and fire gates I want to say you are fired Bill Gates

All options are liberal. I wish a patriot would start one!!!!
