Brethren, two (or more) people had successfully caused a lot of problems in our local churches and orphanages here in Mexico. After digging my way out of the garbage, I THINK I'm on top of the trash heap, However, I do expect repercussions, retaliation, revenge, etc. Your prayers are appreciated.

How do you identify the most genuine Christians in a church? Why, by the financial records, of course., especially if they're tithers. But is this a Biblical standard? Let's have some courteous responses, Gang!

Praise the Lord for a successful Vacation Bible School with 77 kids on the last day! Good behavior all week, and we had 12 kids in my van today. I am happy to see that some of my van kids have made friends with regular church kids, and they all get along well. "Behold, how good and how pleasant...

In the very early days of personal computing, we often used TV sets for monitors. We considered the low-powered CPUs and RAM chips as powerful but expensive monsters. And a few people built Yamamotos. At a high cost, they bought the most powerful chip available and bought all the RAM it could...

There are 20 kids at the Love in Action orphanage here in Mexico. We are bringing them over five at a time to play with my model trains. Then we're getting ice cream (which they rarely get) and then we'll bring in the next group. HELP! Fasting and prayer appreciated!

When you first turn on your computer, it activates the BIOS chip. This chip is independent of Windows. It has its own software program that turns on the hardware in your computer. After Windows is turned on, BIOS continues a few functions, such as controlling your cooling fans. BIOS is...

Anyone here who graduated from, or even attended, HAC?

Anybody here who attended or graduated from Hyles-Anderson College?

My own efforts have shown me that several years after getting out, less than half of all Bible college graduates even attend church.

Folks, I've been closely following the new Windows 11 operating system, and I've seen that a lot of emotions have clouded the issues. The simple truth is that Windows 11 is a massive upgrade to Windows 10 that will only work on new, powerful computers. Windows 10 will continue to work fine on...

After some prayer, I got my new computer working this morning. It ranks as a bottom of the line gaming machine, which is actually more powerful than I need. The foes I smite look a lot sharper than on my old rig.

Someone donated a working 2010 Apple iPad 1, so I got right on it. With 1\4 gigabyte of RAM and a single-core 32 bit Atom chip, this touchscreen device easily surfs the web and plays YouTube videos. Its 9 1\2 inch screen is bright and clear. You have to buy an Apple card to download games and...

Folks, "bash" is a command-line program in Linux. In early August, it will be introduced to Windows 10. I am struggling to learn how to use it, although (being a geek) it is interesting. If you don't know what I'm talking about, in your Linux program, find "Terminal." That will get you to the...

WHICH IS THE BEST OPERATING SYSTEM? Introduction For weeks now, I have been enjoying Windows 10, Chrome, and Linux every day. And while I still have lot to learn, I can discuss which one is the best. Online “tests” of these operating systems show varied results, with accusations of “Foul!”...

On another computer, I'm upgrading Linux from "Wily Werewolf" to "Xenial Xerus" ("Friendly African Ground Squirrel"). It should take a few hours, and then we can discuss it on this thread. PS. I'm not the one who invents these names, okay?

For about $16 US, I paid a computer shop to install Ubuntu on an 8 gig thumb drive. It is not difficult. During start-up, I had to press F11 (This will vary on different computers) to get the option to boot off a thumb drive. A tiny Ubuntu icon appeared, and after ten seconds the entire program...

Designed for telephones, Android has grown successfully into the tablet business, which includes a lot of touchscreen games. And yes, an Android tablet can go onto the internet. But should you buy an Android laptop? Although Google owns Android (and Chrome) they have kept Android open-source...

I finally found my first Chromebook, made sure that I had a seven-day return guarantee, and got to work. When I plugged it in and turned it on, it asked me what language I wanted. Choosing English was easy. Unlike Windows, there is only one Chrome Operating System. Chromebooks cannot refuse...

Folks, I have posted my "Cheap Laptops" series on several forums, and it was well-received by small audiences everywhere. Some of that knowledge applies to desktops as well. If you want to play high-tech games or do high-tech video work, or if you insist on multi-tasking, this series is not for...

Folks, I'm going to let you in on a deep dark secret about Windows 10 forums that few readers know: Most of their solutions don't work. Windows 10 is designed to be an upgrade to Windows 7, 8, and 8.1. In addition, some people have installed it on souped-up computers designed for Vista and even...
