If you use Linux your kernel is more than likely 5.xx unless you’ve changed

I run Linux Mint on my computer. The only gripe I have is that it won’t print pdf files. For that, I have to email it to my phone and then print.

I don’t/won’t use “sudo” or “systemd” ever. They’re solutions to non existent problems.

[[set your firewall to reject all incoming connections that are not in response to outbound requests.]]

Is there a way to do that with the basic linux GUFW prgram?

I really want to like Linux, but it seems that no matter what distro I use, it freezes after using it for a couple of hours. Kind of reminds me of the WinXP days. Tried Manjaro KDE, Mint Cinnamon, Pop OS downloaded KDE, Elementary OS, etc.

I have a Canon Pro 100 and Espson WF 7610 and no distro runs them correctly. So, I keep going back to Windows 10 Pro where I have an OS freeze maybe once a year.
