If you don’t have specific application support needs, Debian based distros like Ubuntu/Mint (based on Ubuntu) are good for a first-timer. You won’t have all the GUI management stuff like you get in Windows. You may find Arch a bit more challenging.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•hosting a VPN with a different ISPEnglish
2·3 months agoISP may offer a static IP, and/or help bypassing CGNAT if either are useful. I’ve done it for a 5G failover with VPN, with the gateway in passthru, and a firewall behind it. At a glance, it looks like the FX4100 supports all of this
Policy on the local machine - or in the case of home, registry settings. Granted, the settings app can bug out, but if it’s a consistent problem, it’s the first thing to come to mind. If you can search for windows update settings, but clicking on it leads to something else, that would be consistent with such a change.
Wouldn’t hurt to check group policy.

10·9 months agoMint is fine, most things work via Steam/Proton and Heroic/Proton/Wine. Nvidia drivers could be better.
You may run into problems with various forms of anti-cheat (kernel level etc.) which may or may not be supported later.

6·10 months agoIf you don’t like or don’t want to see communities that don’t want you to participate, block them and move on. Whether or not they’re right isn’t really important if they’ve made it clear you’re unwelcome, doubly so if you’re going against their own rules. Appeal the others later, if that’s important to you.

3·10 months agoWe already know that autism isn’t caused by vaccines, and if anything, the reverse is true. Yet we have a guy with zero medical background peddling this and antivaxxer nonsense at the top of HHS. If you still can’t see a connection between stuff like this and social darwinism/eugenics, you can start by looking at someone he wants working on this. He worked with his father, and they experimented on autistic children. His father lost his medical license over it.
See the following about how his father lost his license in Maryland. This also happened in other states.

Here’s a link - on Fox of all places - about RFK and “wellness farms” for various things, including the ADHD stuff you had trouble finding. “RFK ADHD work camps” does the trick.

When some rich guy comes outta nowhere and tell you that vaccines are bad, and folks with addictions, mental disorders, or happen to be a bit different from most just need to work on a farm for a while, your first thought shouldn’t be “wow, he’s really trying to help people.” If you’re still stanning this jackass after all of the above, I don’t know how else to help you, but I definitely know you haven’t worked very hard on answering your own questions above. Maybe a farm is hiring, IDK, but I’m done here.

4·10 months agoAutism and ADHD are naturally occuring neurotypes. It’s like trying to pray the gay away, and they know it. Consider this and the context in which it’s coming up - immigration, gay/trans fearmongering, a sudden and completely wrong approach to “curing” autism. This guy isn’t talking to the best and brightest in the field for a reason. History may not repeat, but it rhymes. There was a famous book burning. It was LGBTQ+ research/materials. Look into who Asperger actually was. They’re coming after queer and disabled people first.









This was years ago - but I feel like the solution for CGNAT at the time required a static, and we also implemented DDNS for their TLD. It definitely wasn’t T-Mobile. It took some time to find someone at the mobile ISP who understood what we needed, and what options existed.
