    I would say linux is not for the closed mind people. As you have to be very open to changes if you are deciding to switch to linux, since in Linux you cannot be like: "Why doesn't linux to this thing that Windows has, this is stupid". Instead you have to be willing to change if you switch to Linux. Also Linux is not for those who rely on Windows applications that don't run on Linux, maybe your job requires the app, then Linux is great for like a second device, but for your first it might not be so great.

    I am not sure 100% of the exact model number netgear, but I suggest that you turn off `QoS`. Also, check if you are on 5Gz. Also one tip as I have xfinity, you should tight the wires of the coax everywhere there is a connection to ensure all connection goes through.

    Can't guarantee that for sure, but the current Lineage OS official builds currently being released are Android 10, so if ever the device gets listed, then you can definitely update to Android 10. To put in context, a Samsung Galaxy s3 released in 2012 currently running Lineage OS Android 7. So that phone should also survive pretty long. Is a phone really important? How about Bluestacks emulator on your MacBook or Mac?

    You won't need Lineage OS at first. The phone I suggested comes with Android 9.0 out of the box. Lineage is only needed if you decide to update the OS on the phone after it loses support for updates or it starts to get slow. You are probably good for 3-4 years for your use cases.

    You can insert an SD Card. They are pretty cheap.

    But you could flask a custom rom! Like Lineage.

    I checked my carriers website and this is the cheapest android phone they have that I think is pretty good. Motorola moto e⁶ - 16gb

    Make sure it is not Find My Locked. Could be locked because it might be stolen or the owner doesn't know tech well Make sure it is Factory Reset If not, then get it factory reset or you could send the owner a video of how to do it. Make sure it is not locked by a carrier. Could be locked because: not fully paid or if it is stolen. I personally would not buy a second hand phone, but invest a bit more money into a new one. Some carriers have good deals for those phones going on.

    No idea why. I use filezilla all the time as a FTP client. I use it on a Mac, and no issues.

    Backup everything on your MacBook, then reinstall MacOS completely!

    Do you see the profiles menu in MacOS settings?
  12. Nano Adam
    If you rename it, I think it still be visible to the profile thing. Why not investigate where the profile comes from?

    You have one satellite on top of the internet roof, then many more pointing to the rest of the barns. You can achieve great distance and be wire free!

    If you want to get it, get it for a deal. Some places are selling it lower than $400!

    The web browser! Firefox! and text editor.

    I use to get that issue when my hard drive was about to be dead.

    Oh. https://protonvpn.com/blog/are-vpns-illegal/ You could try Tor. Or, you could setup a server via Digital Ocean and host your own VPN!
  18. Nano Adam
    lol.
  19. Nano Adam
    lol. No idea why it would say that. I installed it on Apple and Android devices!

    You could try Proton VPN. Here is more info: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1218864-tunnel-bear/?do=findComment&comment=13794219

    It is! Includes United States, Japan and Netherlands severs. Unlimited data. Each country has 3 servers. No data caps. Just speed caps. But, I was able to watch 1080p YouTube while connected to Japan or Netherlands. (probably even more if the video wasn't capped at 1080p). The free tier speeds are just slower than paid tiers, but I don't think it makes a difference, depends on your use!

    ProtonVPN to my experience is very good! I primarily use to it to watch my country shows that are blocked in the US. Their free tier has unlimited everything. Also, they are based in Switzerland. It is also very good for torrenting.
  23. Nano Adam
    I personally use ProtonVPN. Their free-tier is pretty amazing too! Don't take my word, but I think Tunnel Bear was acquired by McAfee. That is why Linus stopped promoting it. (Not 100% sure)
  24. Nano Adam
    100% true. Just get a case that looks good but cheap!
  25. Nano Adam
    Also that will allow you to sell to someone less technical if you gave complete bundle
