WHICH LINUX DISTRO?

I've had a few more friends asking about switching to Linux, as the great 2025 exodus from Windows 11 spyware begins.

Searching for info online, they encounter Linux geeks who make everything more confusing by saying things like "There are more than 600 Linux distros, and here are the top 10 beginner distros you should consider".

But these are ex-Windows users, so they don't want 10 options, they just want one operating system that works. For Windows users who want a good Linux operating system to replace Windows, here are the two best options in my opinion - Mint or Zorin.  

I use Mint myself - https://linuxmint.com/ - I like it because it looks like a modern version of Windows 7, but with dark mode and a bunch of other upgrades.

Here is a screenshot of my desktop, but pretty much everything can be changed, it's all about personal preferences. 

Zorin - https://zorin.com/os/  - is often recommended for ex Mac users and people who want a more modern Windows 11 look, but the Mac version (where it looks like a Mac) requires paying for the pro license (cost NZ$90 one off) - the free version is fine but it looks more like Windows 10.

Having such an easy way to switch between desktop layouts is a really cool idea - no other distro has quite set this up so well - but Zorin have taken a lot of flack for charging for the Pro version, because it sort of goes against Linux principles -  https://zorin.com/os/pro/ - I think it's fair enough because their free version has everything that is actually needed, just not all the extras. 

Both those distros come from Ireland - Ireland is now considered one of the most tech savvy countries in the world - it's odd how these things work out!

Another big advantage of Linux is that pretty much any hardware will do:

Linux has much lower requirements than Windows or Apple - pretty much anything that is 64 bit will work - some distros even have 32 bit versions for really old computers - but the two I'm recommending here - Mint or Zorin, don't make 32 bit versions, so just make sure it's 64 bit laptop or PC you are using - so anything less than 10 years old shouldn't be a problem.

 But no system is perfect - whatever you decide to do on a computer there are always issues, and they always seem to take ages to sort out - there is a myth online that switching to Linux can be easy - people say things like "My mum switched to using a Linux laptop and she never had any problems" I suspect they set everything up for her, and she only uses the browser. 

As well as getting used to the new operating system, you also have to learn so much new stuff it can be overwhelming - for example if you are used to Photoshop you have to learn to use Gimp instead - everything is similar, but a bit different. But Gimp is free while Photoshop costs NZ$44.50 a month, so there is that extra incentive.

There are multiple free options in Linux to replace any Windows software, and it's easy to install them using the software manager, but each choice usually requires trying several out and choosing which one you like best, and then getting used to using it. So all this takes time & effort.

ARE VAXTARDS PSYCHOTIC?

Like most people discussing the toxic injections known as "vaccinations" over the past five years, I've tended to focus on the physical side effects of the "covid" jabs, like myocarditis or cancer, or the more universal destruction caused by death jabs in general, like autism or SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome).

 

Autism rates keep rising - What on earth could be causing that? Doctors are baffled. Maybe it's time for an autism vaccine. 

But there is a growing field of research into the psychological effects of these injections. As well as destruction of the pineal gland, there is increasing evidence that all "vaccines" but particularly the "covid" ones are causing large scale mental issues.

Here are a couple of examples:  

https://www.globalresearch.ca/covid-19-vaccine-induced-psychosis-13-cases-post-vaccine-psychosis-mania-suicide-attempts-that-will-shock-you/5811393 

https://www.preprints.org/manuscript/202504.1099/v1
 

Unfortunately in an increasingly controlled internet, most of the search results that come up when searching for studies linking the covid death jab to psychosis, seem to be either saying that there is no link, or that the injections actually reduce the symptoms of mental disorders. Yeah right.

The modern method of controlling internet content is to bury the real information under hundreds of links to false information.

Once you see the effects of these injections, you can't unsee them, they are everywhere. One of the effects seem to be that jabbed people cannot grasp, even when they have family and friends dying like flies, that the jabs are what is killing them. It's like watching a zombie apocalypse. 

SESSION vs SIGNAL

 

Signal is a popular messaging app that is widely regarded as being private, and compared to Messenger it is, but the big issue, the main reason it can never really be a privacy app, is that it requires a phone number to set up an account.

 

An alternative to Signal is Session, which is in many ways very similar to Signal, in fact it nearly looks identical because it's an open source hard fork based on the Signal code. But the big difference is that it doesn't require a phone number, so a Session account can actually be anonymous.

 

Session is not as popular as Signal yet because it's fairly new and not many people have heard of it. But it's easier to set up an account on Session than it is on Signal.  It doesn't require a phone number, and it doesn't ask anything about you. 

 

A new account can be rapidly set up not just on a phone, but also using a Laptop, a PC, or a tablet, running Windows, Android, Mac, or Linux operating systems.

To install it you can get it from any of the app stores, but better yet go directly to the Session website. This is preferable because by not logging into an app store you remain anonymous - https://getsession.org/

 

Initially Session had several drawbacks, but these have now been addressed.

 

It previously had a size limit of 10 on encrypted groups, but that has now been increased to 100 which is hopefully enough for most groups. 

 

It was originally set up in Australia which is considered a major security risk (as is NZ) but they have now moved to Switzerland - https://getsession.org/blog/introducing-the-session-technology-foundation 

 

And Session also had a reputation for being buggy in 2023 when it was new, but it seems to have really improved in the past year. I have had no problems with it, apart from the confusion of needing to set up a seperate account for each device. 

 

It won't install on Windows 7, which is only an issue for around 3% of desktop users these days, but I've found it works really well on Linux.

 

YOUR ACCOUNT ID

 

There is really only one new thing to keep in mind when using Session - because unlike Signal it is not using your phone number or the phone numbers of your contacts, to set up the initial link you have to exchange your account ID for the first contact. This is the minor inconvenience that allows the whole platform to be totally private.

 

The account ID is a 72 character code that will look similar to this one (this is not an actual code but just an example):
  06b2451d1bc973a57021bf76f353306c7sfc7ec891eb29ef4997bd82473300e00b

 

Your account ID is not high security and it's OK to give that out to everyone you want to contact. You also get a recovery code which is a random generated series of 13 words, and that on the other hand needs to be kept private. Keep that code secure and don't share it with anyone.

Who is behind Session?

Session is part of the Loki Foundation, a non-profit organization without a permanent seat. The CEO is Simon Harman. Even though the project is not profit-oriented, he wants to monetize Session. Parts of the infrastructure are based on a block-chain network that mines its own currency, $LOKI.

The network provides important infrastructure for anonymizing its users, including an onion router to hide your IP address. Neither your counterpart nor the Loki Foundation can determine your location.

So if a state were to obtain a court order to inspect the session servers, investigators would find nothing but meaningless session IDs and TOR-IP addresses. None of this information would allow us to draw clear conclusions about the identity of the messenger app's users.

Privacy features of Session

    Users can generate a Session ID with a private key to start an account

    Session doesn’t require phone numbers.

 

    The chat platform doesn’t collect any data, and therefore a data breach is impossible.

 

    Messages go through an onion routing network, removing traceability.

    Session is an open-source program, so you can verify everything.

 

    It’s censorship resistant thanks to its decentralized network, therefore also harder to shut down

 

REVIEWS

 

Here is a good review of Session on the Restore Privacy website. It answers a lot of questions, but keep in mind that it was written in April 2024, and  the concerns about Australian privacy are no longer an issue - https://restoreprivacy.com/secure-encrypted-messaging-apps/session/

 

 

I have found Rob Braxman's Youtube channel really helpful for learning about privacy. Here is his video about Session, which he recommends highly.

AI IS A PSYOP

Facebook, like all mainstream social media platforms, are using AI to censor and control the content that users who view the default algorithm feeds are seeing (Yes, unlike on Instagram, it's easy to choose to see a chronological feed on FB), but their AI, like all AI, is just another retarded bot. We are humans, and we can run rings around some fuckwit robot.

Like most psyops, AI is a rabbit hole with lots of different aspects, but they all tend to follow certain key patterns - they aim to create fear among the masses, and generate profits and control for the globalists.

On all social media AI has been constantly used and promoted for years. There is probably no platform that is more AI dominated than YouTube, where it is now at a point where most (yes MOST!) of the posts are either entirely or partially AI generated, most of the comments are obviously AI, and the vast majority of the "hits" are AI as well, in some cases to an extent that is becoming ridiculous.
 

But as usual we are being simultaneously pushed in two controlled directions (control the debate and create confusion).

Narrative 1 is that AI is all powerful and will take over everything, so enslaving us. It is smarter than we are and will soon replace us.

Narrative 2 is that AI is our friend, and if we learn to use it properly we will move forward into a glorious new world order in which AI does everything for us and creates a meaningful and rewarding life for everyone.

Of course, both narratives agree that one way or another, the future is AI, and that the coming era of AI is a done deal that is beyond our control.

What very few people seem to be saying is that AI is a giant scam, because it's just constantly copying, rather than creating anything new, and eventually everything it does ends up disappearing up it's own arse. It's just a matter of time. 

THE FLAT EARTH CON – BOLLOCKS 101

IS “FLAT EARTH” A WHOLE NEW LEVEL OF MORONIC PSYOP?

For most of my life, I’ve been saying things along the lines of “everything you believe is complete bollocks”, and I got kind of used to being one of the only people saying it.

So this flat earth story was a new experience and I quite enjoyed being on the other side of the fence for once. As a child I travelled with my parents on a trip around the globe, and I remember looking down out of the plane window as we passed over oceans and ice. We travelled between places that wouldn’t have worked out so well if the earth was a flat disc.

For some bizarre reason one of the things I studied at university was geography, and admittedly, like all university subjects it glossed over a few things, such as the fact that oil is not actually a fossil fuel, but is abiotic, but that will have to be another post! – https://www.frot.co.nz/design/sift/peak-oil/

One of the areas that we mostly did cover pretty well in Geography was the physical structure of the planet. There are said to be many millions of planets and one thing they all have in common is that they are all spheres. They are not flat discs like dinner plates.

There is also another theory that the moon is actually a hollow alien made construct like a death-star. Some people say that idea is bollocks, and I agree, but compared to the flat earth story it sounds pretty reasonable.

There is a story that back in the 60’s the Americans sent men to the moon, and that is complete bollocks too, but many people seem to believe it. Not as many believe it in Russia, but it is still a very popular story in America.

A lot of people flying around the globe in planes have taken photos, and what the photos seem to show is a spherical planet just like all of the others. 

Admittedly the photos may all be fake, but at this point they seem more realistic than the pictures of a blue and green dinner plate with all the oceans pouring of the edge like a waterfall (or not, as the artist may choose).

When I said "the artist", the artist I really meant was David Dees (not Prince). I am a big fan of his work and it was mainly him that originally brought the flat earth con to my attention. Because he was right into it.

While I think David Dees was perceptive, open-minded, and the real deal, as well as being one of my favourite artists, I think in this case he was unfortunately doing work for the very people he was usually exposing, so what is the real purpose of this flat earth story? Basically to undermine the credibility of a bunch of other conspiracy theories, which unlike the fake mainstream news are actually the true bits.

This “religious” site is a good example, because along with a bunch of crap about flat earth, they also talk about the moon landing being fake – how better to undermine the credibility of  any questions to the official party line than by linking flat earth theory to fake moon landing?

https://christianflatearthministry.org/2017/11/04/fake-moon-landing/

This pattern of connecting the truth to utter crap has long been one of the favourite tactics of mind control organizations like the CIA.

For once I find myself in full agreement with the majority opinion about something (although I suspect many sheeple may disagree with me about the moon landing being fake), but what the hell, I’m quite enjoying being a conservative, mainstream, old fart on the flat earth issue.

So in summary, what I’m saying here is that BOTH the moon landing and flat earth are total bollocks…
