Can you survive without a cell phone??

That doesn't mean you can't live and enjoy life here until the Lord returns, aligned with Jesus commands and teachings.

Here's an example of the kind of AI surveillance I was referencing in one or two of my posts.

https://newrepublic.com/post/195904/trump-palantir-data-americans

It's literally a 3 minute read.

This is coming out in the open now but the normies - "those fascinated with their own realities" - have no idea what is happening so to them there is no need to think about it.

The guy Peter Thiel...who owns the company whose software is used by intelligence agencies around the world...both the U.S. and Israel for example. He is the same guy who invested in and empowered Vice President J.D. Vance to his present role.

He and his company are now officially hired by the present administration to carry out the executive order instructing government agencies to share data with each other. Among other things...the shear multitude of information related to the American public...is included in this "data sharing."

The administration’s efforts to compile data began under Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency initiative, which sought Americans’ personal data from multiple agencies including the IRS, the SSA, Selective Service, Medicare, and many others. In some cases, court orders hindered these efforts, but not in all of them.

Thiel has multiple ties to DOGE, both through Musk and through many of his former employees working for the effort or taking other jobs in the Trump administration.

Imagine what this data collection effort could give Thiel, Musk, and Trump? Perhaps an unprecedented power over anyone who might present a threat to them and more? And certainly a live AI data set on millions of American citizens?

I am not fearing you or anyone...this is happening...I saw this being set up years ago. What does this mean? It likely means that much of the U.S. Government data...including US citizens is in the possession of a few men...and their AI software...this is very likely not by accident. If you think these billionaires are benevolent...you are in for a rude awakening.

You are here.

Life seems to becoming more and more complicated. People are more distant than ever and many seemingly under a hypnotic spell .  With all the different types of communications devices available, people are more secluded then ever.

The way the system is working, you would have to comply or upgrade to their system or be left behind, so to speak.   I never owned a cell phone or smart phone.  I however has been using them since my company switched to them a decade or more.  I always had my land line, but no one called that line and I just used it for reference when filling out documents as to have my own number.  

I had to abandon that now, since my service provider no longer provided DSL land line internet and now I have to use wifi, which I resisted for years, because of some professionls say they emmit radiation that can be harmful. I don't know the truths to that.

About a week ago, microsoft said my computer can not be upgraded to win11, and my computer, which is a desktop works perfectly fine, speed is good ect.  So, like you I will have to get another one and this will go to the landfill and increase the pollution. They have be prompting me to upgrade to their software and office 365 which I don't need, and I guess they got tired of me saying no .

The company smart phone I have also kept prompting me to update the firmware and yesterday I did it and when it was done , I now have this AI asking me if I want help and to ask any questions.  It's the new reality now and they are forcing the implementation of their software and tools to faciliatate Ai control of maybe your life now. 

The human life now is for the most part artificial already , as all our food which keeps our bodies alive is artifical. Now, your cognitive mental status must be trained to be artifical so that you now depend on the truths of the Ai system. You can no longer think for yourself.  You might say that cannot happen, but in the novel 1984, the end story was 2+2=5 and that became the truth when they were done with their manipulation.   It's here folks, and we must stand firm in the power and might of the Lord and resist the devil and his schemes at ALL cost.

Well that was my take, who really knows, maybe Ai would bring about the utopia that those who developed the system promises.  Humans have gone through a lot of technological and developmental stages that brought us many things that fill our homes and allow us to commute with ease.  Do we like them, yes of course, but at what cost.  Our planet is in decline  and we, not the animals, but humans and I can dare say satan are the master planners of it.  Well satan used the humans to do all his bidding.

Oh I fell, I can write some more and I was supposed to stop after the second paragraph, but --.

Is any cell phone with Internet access a smartphone?

I just use mine for phone calls.   When the storage gets full, must I buy a new cell phone...since I only use it for calls?

No. There are some flip phones with Internet access but it's not that easy to browse. It's like better for people who need to look up an occasional phone number or address.

I'm not sure what you're asking in your second question...?

Greetings@warrior12

Thank you for sharing...

Don't get rid of your laptop, if its still in good use.

even if you decide,to upgrade,keep the other older laptop for other uses.

I ran errands today and spoke with the fellow who fills up my gaz tank. He is a christian and also happens to have been into computer & laptop repairs  . He told me today that I can still use my windows 10 and gave me the name of Avast to get a free protection download. He said he still uses windows 7 and has a cell phone (forget the name) that cannot be traced. He was very busy so I will have to ask him more another time.

But for now, even with them trying to force us to windows eleven, we are not yet obliged to concede and our older laptops, if well protected, will still be able to function after this autumn.

But yes things are changing. I spoke to my bank financial adviser today on a phone conference call. I spoke to him by phone yet we used my laptop and e-mail to sign a few changes.

We spoke a little about all the changes coming and he said yes eventually they want to get rid of all phones and have people connected with watches or computer integrated glasses...

However, the people I know (long standing family friends) and many are also white collar professionals, are not getting rid of their land lines even though they have smart phones.

So to those who still have land lines, it is wise to keep them if you can, for as long as you can.

And about older laptops, I will keep mine as I also have so much downloaded info, music, movies and other to keep me occupied if ever the net goes down for a while.

I am not the least bit concerned about any of what I see as imaginations gone sci-fi. The Lord, He is God and my body is His temple.

[warrior12]

The bible states clearly that the believer war is not with flesh and blood, but the spiritual host of wickedness in high places.   So what are our weapons, they are not of carnal means, but the full armor of God.  Ephesians 6.

As belivers live in this world, his experience as living the biblical life, with the trials, temptations and others that comes to draw him away back into the world would be teaching lessons as to encourage and strengthen him in the daily decisions and struggles that he may face.  Satan would never give up his assault and schemes to draw the believer back into his world using his famous tools, fear, lust and the myraids of other things.  This is my experience anyway.

The one thing that the believer would stand alone is in his spiritual walk and the experiences that he encounters there.  It seems to me that many here have not or afraid to share their testimony of that part of their life, which is a reality to me as just as the sun rises in the morning and I can see it.  There is where the real battles are fought and you now understand things that no one ever can teach you, but is your very own reality that cannot be taken away from you.

So, should be fear Ai and the rest of the drama that is prepared for belivers, No.  As we still have this flesh and the wants of it, there would be struggles to come to terms with many decisions, but that would be you the individual and your relation of your biblical values and at the cost that you are willing to pay.  Maybe you may not have to face the brunt of the new technologies, but you would certainly be concerned about your family future.

Ai is quite different from all the other technologies, in that it now claim to be the holder of truth of the world contents.  This is where the spiritual man in you has to be steadfast in your beliefs and doctrine.   So all the implementations that will come, we cannot fear their imposition, as absent in the body is present with the Lord, if we only believe and live by it.

It is possible to live without a cell phone today and even without a computer but it would be difficult. It depends on how you live your life. Technology has a powerful influence in our lives today. There is some good to technology depending on the choices that you make.

Hi @missmuffet I really like it when on trips to be away altogether from email............................ :)
