So they're rebranding "Monkeypox" to "hMPXV".

Kind of like LatinX, but not quite 🤷‍♂️

Not technology related but a reason to hope for the future and not give in to hopelessness. This is a hit deep in the heart of the woke capital of the US. If it can happen here, we can be the change.

This looks like an attempt to commandeer and force private business to be controlled by the government in regards to security. That hasn't worked out for Americans at all in the last 2 years.

If you are one of the several hundred learners enrolled in our Linux for Beginners course, your invitations for tomorrow's Weekend Linux Workshop (to be held Sat. June 18th @ 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, learn how Windows tracks your personal data and how big the black market for personal data is. Learn how switching from Windows to Linux frees you from the risk of monitoring and surveillance where it matters most -- at the Operating System level of your computer.

Then, we revisit one of our all-time favorite topics, easy ways to revitalize older and refurbished cheap computers that work just as fast as new, with Linux! More relevant than ever, with semiconductor prices skyrocketing, supply chain problems and China's political problems with Taiwan on the horizon. Now is the time to find a cheap laptop, format the drive and install Linux!

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!

Anyone remember Computer Shopper?

This was an incredible sports watch for its time.

Now a vintage LCD watch, the Seiko D138 "running man."
