Rick 1990s

On Facebook Messenger, Rick wrote to me regarding our trip with dad to Medford: "No, I don't remember bringing the camcorder." When did you first use the Internet? "In the living room. On the 286 computer that Steve Jenson gave us, using America Online dialup internet. But it took a really long time, and basically was not usable." I don't remember how many computers we got from Steve. We may have also had a 386 and a 486 or I am not totally sure. I remember using the Internet when we went to Medford. The library had a computer catalog where mom would order books from, like a county intranet internet system. The library had normal Internet starting around like 1998, I remember showing you how to get an Yahoo email account. Rick: "Yeah, I went to the library to use internet. But, I remember not knowing about search engines, or they weren't even around yet. You had to know the website, to type it in. So, I went to Disney.com and tvland.com. Those were the only websites I knew.
Disney.com | The official home for all things Disney." I used yahoo at the library. Yahoo started around 1994. So, I was using yahoo since like 1998. Rick: "We watched the Adams Family on the satellite system of the friend of dad that we stayed at in Gold Hill." Yeah, I remember Disney i think. I don't remember watching Adams Family, but I remember the TV. Rick: "Yeah, I went crazy, looling for stations, because I always wanted a satellite dish." I remember you working on antennas over the years. Rick: "It was part of the electronics, shortwave radio, antenna, constellation craze that I was into." I remember glow in the dark stars on the ceiling. I remember the short wave radio. Rick: "I got a satellite dish, when we owned a home in Oklahoma City, but then came the internet, with access to channels from all over the world, so I got rid of it. The internet messed with a lot of hobbies." Larry put some kind of radio in the truck, I think like a Ham radio. Larry put some kind of radio in the truck, I think like a Ham radio.

POP OS is probably not very popular; Linux can appear very similar to Windows and Apple making it usable for the average user depending on which flavor of Linux you deal with; Linux is generally a lot easier to use now than it was say thirty years ago; some people say Linux is so hard to use but they base that assumption on where Linux generally was in say the 1990s but Linux made a lot of improvements in trying to help Windows and Apple users transition over; but it's tough for many people because it depends a lot on which Linux flavor you use as some are better than others and say some laptops or other hardware might struggle to work with Linux which then would require a lot of work to get Linux to work if it is not already compatible enough; many people have had these bad experiences of compatibility issues which scared them away from Linux over the years and then they tell their friends how Linux sucks because of it; and then Linux gets this bad reputation because of that which is tough to overcome as most computers already has Windows or Apple. Hardware was usually made with Windows in mind which can lead to compatibility with Linux; part of the issues has to do with drivers which was not always being customized to bridge the gap between the hardware and say Linux; I would say the Linux world is a lot better now than it was years ago.

I was teaching in Vietnam, the photo was taken around 2015 at the 23/9 Park in Saigon where the Vietnamese go to practice English with foreigners

I documented, filmed, archived, and listed details of my life in videos and autobiography blogs on many websites over the years; these are just examples of literally hundreds to thousands of photos I published on Facebook across around 500 entities

I've been making videos since 1996 in the ghetto with family and friends, I've uploaded tens of thousands of videos, probably hundreds to thousands of hours worth of content; been on the Internet telling my life story since at least 1995 meaning the last roughly thirty years even in the mist of a lot of Oatmeal Fake News that trolls and haters spam about me over years

Random people interacted with me over the years, I took photos with so many random people over the years like as if I was a celebrity; sometimes, I would only see the people one time and never ever see them again; I've met hundreds to thousands of people in real life (IRL), that is in person, face to face, it's tough to keep track or even remember everybody and everything everywhere

I'm still in the ongoing process of publishing my autobiography over the course of many years or even decades; I'm trying my best to tell my side of the story which many people ignore as they take me out of context; I would love to see Trump 2028 over Obama 2028 any day; I'm still buried in a lot of work and a number of projects I'm working on

YouTube suspended at least three of my largest channels over the years meaning I lost over ten thousand or 10,000+ or 10K+ videos over the years when they were terminating my channels or my life work which means there are many videos and content that many people have not seen and I did not have copies of the videos which makes me sad as I wished Google staff would see this and go in and extract those videos and send them to me

That is why we love you, because wishy washy is icky ocky

Demoncrats hated when Trump renamed that body of water near Mexico the Gulf of America and yet these same democrats promote changing the name of your God given gender or sex, Alex Jones was right that leftists are Hell-bent on destroying humanity from the inside-out by inverting reality

Sleepy Don is trending for whatever the reason despite the fact that America have been a sleeping giant for over a century as the economy was booming in the 1890s and then came in the evil Federal Reserve in 1913; the good news is a lot of people are waking up and raising awareness as the globalists are being cornered like never ever before in world history; Donald Trump should stop the Real ID as that is a bad idea; we should also stop geoengineering and the United Nations

But Arch is not the best example of Linux, I use Ubuntu Mint Mate, PewDiePie should shop around a little more because Arch is generally harder to use; but at least it is not Windows or Apple

04:04 PM
I have no idea why the Lakers is trending with blocked by James, oh it must be Lebron being a fake version of Michael Jordan; I love basketball but I would rather watch Chrissie Mayr's Simpcast instead

Somebody needs to sue Google who didn't buy the Alex Jones Infowars in 2024, tell YouTube to restore my original Ojawall channel they suspended in 2017, The Onion is a joke but not the funny kind, why is Adam Schiff trending?

05:01 PM
Big Foot took me to a country that actually had borders and no geoengineering, a place where even Alex Jones could talk without Sandy Hook demanding trillions of dollars from this gay frog

05:08 PM
Alex Jones is right, the world is a stage said William Shakespeare centuries ago

This is why people become conservative, the left will say whatever whenever in order to get what they want at any given time hoping nobody remembers what they just said yesterday
