I have a hand-me-over laptop from Mrs. Soup Diva that I have installed Ubuntu, the open-source Linux operating system Ubuntu 22.04, and Windows 10. I am running them via a dual-boot setup. Both operating systems will still be supported with some updates for the next couple of years so I feel comfortable in saying that I will shoot for a new laptop then and most likely it will be a good refurbished unit that costs under $300. Recently I installed more memory and a solid-state NVME drive so it’s running great right now. I don’t think I am going to have to make any further changes as long as I take care of what I have. I also have a desktop with the same configuration.

I believe it’s good to save your pennies where you can on technology and other things. Soon I am going to adorn the laptop with some stickers to give it a hipster personalization vibe (I’ll share that in a later post). I hope you all have setups that make you happy and productive.

As a person of faith, in the tradition of Jesus, I don’t expect special treatment nor wish to see my faith imposed on others. That’s not what I do to anyone because it can be on the verge of bullying.

I believe that the practice of any faith can benefit the world. And if someone seeks the faith of another then that is the right way to do things.

Worship is essential and good when accommodations can be made for people to attend and also work to keep the world moving. I think places of worship need to be sensitive to their congregation’s work and to make opportunities to encounter the divine when their primary days of worship and prayer are not possible to attend.

To my fellow members of Team Jesus remember that his ministry was built on reaching out, healing, nurturing, teaching, and most importantly love. Don’t forget to love.
