    I've read several times that if several devices are connected to an Access Point, the slowest client's connection speed will slow the rest of the clients down, It got me to wondering: what is a...

  4. Re: Does anyone have experience with the Deeper Network VPN/Firewall?

    Got it: GUFW, Proton VPN, use common sense when surfing.

    Any views on the inclusion of Wireguard VPN in the Linux kernel together or separately with TOR? They've got something called TORguard now...

  7. Re: Does anyone have experience with the Deeper Network VPN/Firewall?

    I already use TOR on occasion; have done since the U.S. Navy published an onion router service way back in the dark ages. I boot from a Live-DVD (no persistence) when the occasion warrants. I guess I...
  8. Re: Does anyone have experience with the Deeper Network VPN/Firewall?

    Also in the odd way coincidences work, for some reason Mashable cancelled my order - something about they weren't able to verify that it was really me that placed the order. They did, however, offer...
  9. Re: Does anyone have experience with the Deeper Network VPN/Firewall?

    I share your concerns. I've been running barefoot (no firewall, no VPN) for years and the more I read about security concerns the more confused I become. All the good reasons to use a VPN are moot if...
  10. Does anyone have experience with the Deeper Network VPN/Firewall?

    I just pulled the trigger on this Indiegogo-funded hardware (https://deepernetwork.net/) the Nano model; I was curious to see if the community had any experience with it. This is supposed to be a...

    Re: 32 bits

    That may have been true in 2019, but here about a year later, 32-bit distros are getting thin on the ground. The most convenient (for me anyway) has been the BunsenLabs Lithium spin on 32-bit Debian....

  13. Re: Samsung printer suddenly prints gibberish

    Since no-one else has had any input, I'll try to share what little I know. First, it appears that you have been doing what Ubuntu documentation suggests for Samsung printers (other than use something...
  14. [SOLVED] Re: Using gparted app instead of live cd gparted in ubuntu 20.04 LTS

    @imon57 - Backup practices vary. My personal routine is to use Grsync to copy my Home folder to my backup external hard drive. If I have to reinstall my Operating System, I will still have my data...
  15. [SOLVED] Re: Using gparted app instead of live cd gparted in ubuntu 20.04 LTS

    Yes, there is a difference. To create/modify/delete partitions, the drive needs to be unmounted. What that means in your case is that if you were able to use gparted from your operatng partition, you...

    Re: 32-bit options for Ubuntu

    Debian, from which Ubuntu derives, still supports 32-bit machines, for older hardware that requires it. Setting up the desktop to you liking can be a bit of a chore, but is eminently doable:

    IMHO, the greatest security vulnerabilities for the average home user will be from 1) social engineering (click this link!, answer this email!) 2) downloads of dubious origin ( videos, images, games,...

    I don't do this personally, but could one possible reason be to utilize software for a particular task that was originally written as 32-bit, was never ported to 64-bit, and is not available as...

    Re: Is this a viable concept?

    Thanks for the ideas,; I had no idea that Celerons were a version of Atom processors. It's too bad that there aren't any distro's to take advantage of old tablets (that I'm aware of). Big screen,...

    Re: Is this a viable concept?

    Thank you for the links; very interesting. A touchscreen interface would be more portable, but my impression is that this is still a work-in-progress in Linux. You are definitely correct that cost...
