That is disgusting. 'nuff said.

This is somewhat outside the box but as tech becomes easier, a lot of people tend to become weaker at certain tech skills. An example of this is directory management. A lot of folks don’t organize their file structures nowadays, relying heavily on the search bar to find everything.

This seems to be some of the most worthwhile advice. I do use a pretty reasonable DNS client (NextDNS) and it allows me to configure some useful filters and such, and when I’m browsing the internet I also use uBlock Origin and manually allow any third party content one by one.

I did configure UFW to block incoming and allow outgoing, and that should be more than enough for me. I think I’m a pretty “standard” user in the sense that I would make a fairly average target for a would-be attacker. It’s not like I own a web server with goodies worth exploiting.

A part of me really wants to learn more because at some point I’ll have my own router that I’ll want to ensure is configured properly because I’ll likely end up making my own server for media stuff.

Thank you for your reply!

Thank you! I’ll adapt to using kden, I appreciate it

Thanks for letting me know, I think that’s the best news I can get so I don’t go on a wild goose chase trying out random drivers with no success lol

It’s just an intel i7, there’s no dedicated GPU, no separate graphics card. The program doesn’t seem to recognize the CPU for an iGPU.

I went to post a comment on this Reddit thread but then my old man saw what I was doing and beat me with jumper cables.

Thank you! :]

Finally bit the bullet and got a Thinkpad and I’m leaning towards putting Fedora on it. I’ve never used Linux before but I’ve done some research and I like the idea of something that updates more often than Debian but isn’t as DIY as Arch. Do y’all think Fedora would make a good starting point? I hear it’s stable enough and offers enough non-free applications through the RPM file management system.

Also, are there any drawbacks in using the immutable Silverblue version? I’m considering it just so I don’t do anything dumb by accident.

Thank you! :D

This. Physical media is awesome to own, and ripping extremely high-quality copies is actually pretty easy, just time-consuming.

I recommend EAC (Exact Audio Copy). It’s free and there are some awesome guides online for setting it to get the best quality for your rips.

That’s awesome! Now how can I add it to Libreoffice?
