Exactly, vindicating. Best example I have is my 72yr old mother, with her very old Celeron laptop that originally came with Win7, but Win10 has bogged down: stick in a current kubuntu usb live image usb and she doesn’t have time to make a cup of tea while it boots anymore. She won’t have to buy a new one anytime soon either…but an SSD upgrade may be a good idea.

WireGuard is increasingly popular as far as I can tell. And if I understand correctly, designed more for IPv6.

I’m actually just enjoying watching things here grow, come to life. I’m loving the energy of that. It’s so positive.

The SSD upgrade is almost critical, and when you install the OS, be sure to include a swap partition (2GB is enough) that functions as a system buffer/parallel & virtual RAM. A bigger RAM chip can’t hurt either. This is exactly what I’ve done for a very similar machine mentioned in another post of this thread.

I wish I could bookmark/save things I also wish that somebody makes an addon of this for kodi.

Indeed it is good to learn: ipv6.he.net/certification is a free course everybody should take the first 2-3 levels of.
The login credentials you create for that website will allow you to login to their sister site tunnelbroker.net and claim a /48 delegation for your DDNS tunnel, also free, to promote the changeover to v6 from v4, especially for people with dynamic WAN IPS from their ISP and no IPv6.

Not a comment but a question- does this potentially affect Lemmy servers as well?

What is the next LTS kernel and when is it slated for release? 24.04-ish?

I love when people switch on the same machine and experience a performance boost. They finally start to understand all my under breath muttering about hating windows and it’s geriatric bloatware.

It’s only been a few days, perhaps a week, of me being here, but I have to admit to loving the very high signal to noise ratio. I have some learning to do about how to make communities or whatever the equivalent of subreddits are, or search to see if the place I’m thinking of might already exist, but I’ll figure it out. Let’s hope we keep growing around here.
