Thanks for the tips. I did some got training a few months ago but hadn’t considered using it for Linux configs.

That is good advice.

Thank you for your advice. I will take it. As a beginner, I’ll start with Mint.

Would your reccomend any other secure distro for the future?

Thanks for the reply. I’m fairy average Joe. I’ll mainly use this machine for downloading files and general browsing. I don’t have any personal files or accounts on that device.

I’m mainly concerned with neglecting to enable (or disabling) something critical or accidentally downloading something malicious (although this hasn’t happened for many many years).

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks. I take it that software centre is like a Linux app store?

Doddle = easy Jiffie = quick

Marines quite: “It might be quick, but it ain’t easy.”

Thanks for that. I’ll move this up the list.

I’ve been flip flopping between JavaScript vs python and landed on JavaScript as it has some libraries I’d like to experiment with.

I’ve written a few lines of python code but just basic training stuff. Hopefully there are some transferable skills from learning JavaScript.

Thank you for the reply.

I’ll do just that. Thanks for the reply!

Ahh yes, I should maybe have posted this somewhere else now I think about it.

For me, I find the barriers to entry are quite high but if you can get a good training vid that covers the building blocks then it’s easy to learn more.

School would be a good place for that initial learning.

If they don’t win then they can’t pay it back. If anything it gives an incentive to lend them more.

This cover just reminded me of an early 2000s trend to Photoshop this cover.

I just tried a couple of old sights and they’re dead.

Does anyone have any old websites to recommend?

I want to go back and visit the old web.

I highly recommend Accursed Farms (this guy’s) YouTube channel. His content is very well made and he seems like a good person (I’ve been watching for a lot of years).

Obligatorily: YouTube is crap statement, used piped instead.
