Pivpn is the package to get. Makes wire guard dead simple to setup. Just have to do a port forward on your router

What hardware do you have already? Is pihole running on a rpi? Look into setting up wire guard or tail scale. Then you can have pihole on your phone while your not at home.

Go old school and setup some basic website with apache2.

I came into this expecting Selinux or firewald to be the issue.

It did change. One of the many changes listed. It’s using a different web server, I forget now, but moved away from the previous one.

That entire scenario scares me lol

I formated an OS drive by mistake last night, thought it was my flash drive…

Don’t cheap out and use the hand holding script to ez mode the install. At least not the first time. You will learn a few things along the way.

I mean, the fastest method is likely to just plug the phone into PC and pretend it’s a flash drive?

Maybe I’m missing a setting, but I can’t get this to scale with my vertical monitor. Rearranging the layout would be cool too.

Otherwise ya this looks and works well.

My work laptop is windows sadly. It has to run a bunch of endpoint sec stuff. I get it, but still sucks. On occasion I do dual boot (separate drive) when some update breaks something and I have to have a PC to fix something asap.

You joke but it would be an awesome project. Maybe replace the screen with a real LCD, shove an rpi inside etc.

Won’t make much of a difference usually. Worst that may come up is having to import the key from the distro during boot of your flashdrive. Otherwise go through the installer, delete windows or tell installer to wipe the disk and install over windows.

Hard to say. But it’s something to consider. Lots of other worthwhile suggestions I see too. Hopefully it’s not a combination of things.

Let us know how it goes!

Laptops now use the internal main battery as a replacement of the cmos rs2032 battery (in a lot of em at least).

Not that such a low draw cause this level of drain. Maybe the battery is going out as well.

11 minutes to 55 seconds in their example is interesting. I’d wager this won’t do much for the consumer side, but enterprise…could save tons of time.

Its not for everyone, same as any other DE. I will say on portable devices it can be nice for staying out of the way.

Extensions are fairly easy to use too. Let’s you add and customize stuff. Honestly just spin up a fedora VM and see for yourself?

It’s nothing like the beloved gtk of old, but I don’t always agree with the hate.

Two physical drives. Install windows first in one, then Linux on the other. If you don’t do this order windows boot manager will take over and you’ll have to boot Linux from bios.
