New to Linux, running Debian (if that matters), dot files are configuration files, yes? Do I need to explore each app/UI/program to figure out the possible options? Are there any universals in Linux? Across distros?...
If I leave the site and come back the next day, I always have to log in again. Is that normal and desired behavior, or is that an issue? I don’t have my browser set up to delete cookies automatically....
Apologies if this isn’t the correct forum. A couple of days back, maybe a week, someone made a post asking if a certain pre-built SFF PC would run Linux.

The recent chat bot advances have pretty much changed my life. I used to get anxiety by receiving mails and IMs, sometimes even from friends. I lost friendships over not replying. My main issue being that I am sometimes get completely stuck in a loop of how to formulate things in the best way to the point of just abandoning the...
I’m currently on my honour run and much to my dismay I can’t stop role playing. I’m playing a Githyanki monk. So far I’ve staked Astarion, dismissed Gale and refused all Illithid powers. All because it made sense for my character. And apart from Astarion these are things that can be quite useful with the increased...
Sometimes I play Sky Force Anniversary when I’m doing nothing. But, when I open the game in offline, it redirects my to Play Store and few seconds later it shows that I dont have any internet connection. Why can’t I play my offline game in offline?
I tried to login to my older account after being logged out for a while and I kept getting an error that my password wasn’t long enough as it needs to be 10 or more characters. But if I’m not mistaken, my password (which I had kept record of) is less than 10 characters and I can’t exactly change that....

I am in the process of moving out some contacts from Google Contacts, specifically those that I do not have a Gmail address. It's a way for me to give these people a tiny bit more privacy, as I'm doing a cleanup of my contact list. My concern is that Google will still keep their data even after I delete it from my end. Is it so?...

Hello everyone - I have been wanting to ditch windows on my gaming pc for a while now, and since I have recently finished a large project, I now have the free time to switch. I am relatively comfortable with Debian having used it for a while on my web server as well as school laptop, but I am concerned about using it on my...
Hi guys,...
My phone is no longer getting updates, so it’s time to buy a new one. The hardware could easily last 1-2 more years but I’d have to replace the battery, which is a pain on my phone....
As the title says, I have been using Proton Unlimited for almost a year; I mainly use Proton Pass, VPN and mail. Mail and Pass are pretty good. However, proton VPN is hit and miss because of the constant loading, slow and unreliable servers....
Roosterteeth removed most episodes from Youtube some months ago and the videos on their website have so much ads that they ruin everything. I have tried looking for it, but most pirate sites that I know of either don’t have it at all, don’t work, or don’t have captions.
