I've been getting overwhelmed. A couple things happened at once. I found out that one of my Linux operating systems doesn't support yubikeys. I was spending time trying to reason with the distro developers. In the end they decided that I'm not worth supporting yubikeys for. That meant that I had to find another linux operating system for two of my computers. It's a mess trying to uproot an OS that had been on hardware for 2 years, and replacing it with something else. If your ever thinking about using Linux as your OS, I suggest that you stay away from PCLinuxOS, unless you don't need to use yubikeys for 2FA. A lot people probably don't use yubikeys for 2FA, because most websites try to get you to use your SMS on your cell phone for it. Problem is SMS is not considered to be secure. It can be easily hacked. Some people use Cell Phone apps for 2FA. I don't own a smart phone. They are expensive and I really don't want porn temptation in my pocket. Plus they are addictive in other ways. Which are all reasons why I've resisted them.

The next problem I've been facing. I got sick. I came down with a fever and diarrhea. I got rid of the fever fairly quickly. But the diarrhea has been holding on for a couple of weeks now. I don't know if I'm going to end up going to the doctor or not. According the family medical book, it doesn't sound like there is anything a doctor could do for me...

There are some other reasons for my break as well... I can't sort through everyone's opinions. I get too mentally overwhelmed, and I don't know what to do about that.

Yes SC ...everyone’s opinions can be overwhelming at times... 🙂
Remember Jesus does not want you to worry or be anxious about anything...He understands all about it🙂

Hey, Seeking-Christ.

I have prayed for you before, but I feel the Lord calling me to pray for you more fervently. I don't say that in any sort of condescending way. We all need to be lifted up in prayer.

I'm glad to see you back.

Sorry, I don't understand all of that computer mumbo-jumbo. How many computers do you have anyway? Try pro-biotic capsules to help regulate your digestive system. You can find them in the vitamin / mineral supplement section near the pharmacy at Walmart.

I guess I have 5 computers. 4 of them are currently usable. They are all old computers.

I'm taking probiotic capsules, have been eating yogurt, drinking Kefir, and drinking liquid IV.
