If you unplugging/replugging works, then you don't need it.

It is the plugging in, not the unplugging that matters. So, you may need to unplug the webcam, then unplug the USB mic, wait 10 seconds, plug in the USB mic, then start your application. Many...
Certainly a quality hacker would trivially be able to find one of my email addresses - I have hundreds. That should make it even easier.
You'll need to contact the wiki server admin for help. Nobody here can help with credentials.
There are many different sorts of encryption. Should a critical part of the encryption header become corrupted, all data inside the encryption container will be lost. This means that having a backup...
The CAPS LOCK initial setting is in the computer hardware BIOS. That's controlled BEFORE any OS is booted.
I think there are tiny applications that can toggle the state, but I've never needed to...
PulseAudio will switch to a new input whenever it is plugged in. This is the default policy. I think one of your connections is flakey. The easy answer is to only have 1 connection active at a...
If a critical part of the file isn't corrupted, most programs will continue until they cannot. This is very common for media files, since they are often streamed and streaming has hiccups.
For...
That's no guarantee.
It isn't that easy. Behavior matters, assuming everything else is done correctly too. You can be determined just by behavior. Heck, most browsers can be "fingerprinted"...
And none of that works against emails that are
7-bit ASCII
and
no attachments (including MIME attachments). Block them all.
Which is what my email servers allow.
I don't know anything about installing Linux Mint. I've only installed it once and at the time, I selected ZFS as the root file system.
OTOH, I know much more about installing on Ubuntu with...
Do you have a link for this attack on Linux? I've never heard nor seen it.
On Android and iPhones, where we don't have control, I can see it and on MS-Windows where they have MS-DOS and Win3 image...
Found the SELF schedule - Fri 10am - Sunday 12:30pm.

There are 13 presentations on Sunday morning! It is a packed...
For cavemen,
No attachments.
7-bit ASCII email only. No MIME attachments.
Period.
Tor is only for HTTP/HTTPS traffic. I don't even know if they tunnel DNS. They definitely do not tunnel all other traffic ... unless there is another Tor setting.
VPNs are for all ports, if...
SELF - SouthEast Linux Fest is happening in a few weeks in Charlotte, NC.
https://southeastlinuxfest.org/ Attendance can be free, though I think they suggest $50 for individuals, but if you...
Which OS? Which release?
In general, you'll need to reinstall choosing to setup RAID1 before the OS is installed. But if you don't already have a 100% solid backup and restore method, RAID makes...
Anyone with a Linux distro on a USB flash drive can gain access outside the system you installed, so the root password is meaningless. 99% of the world will never look.
Software developers...
The point of livepatch is that new kernels can be installed and used without any reboot needed.
Technology like this has actually existed on IBM Mainframes since the early 1980s. It really came...
Ah. Thanks for the clarification. BTW, I don't patch more than weekly to limit interrupting in productivity. Sometimes the first patch released breaks things and they have to rush a new patch out. ...
Core i3 3rd gen is what HP pulls up. Really can't be THAT old - perhaps 2012-2014. I had an i3- 5th gen from 2015 (Toshiba CB35), but it was FAST. I'd still be using it today if some of the...
If that old hardware has USB3 ports, maybe running all your Linux off a USB Flash drive would make more sense? Some distros have that method of running built-in for people who don't want to have...
File corruption can happen for thousands of reasons. It has always been possible since HDDs were first created in the 1960s.
The only file system that validates what the computer sent to the disk...
I don't know.
I do know that I updated 3 22.04 servers this weekend and all of them had the file created. I have a tiny script that just looks for that file and tells me that a reboot is needed...
Typically, all my 24.04 installs have taken 10-15 minutes, not counting time where I was looking up answers. The last install, where I knew all the answers was 10 minutes. I haven't tried to...
