The original story was written before the Internet and so before hackers even existed. One of Stephen King's cocaine fever dreams iirc.

My nearest store is about 3km away and I will usually walk there unless I'm picking up anything especially heavy or bulky.

I feel like you might be over-thinking this. If it's a recent thing then it's most likely just a phase and he'll grow out of it when puberty kicks in. One my best friends has an 11 yo and a 4 yo and they both end up in their parent's bed pretty much every night. There is nothing weird or unusual about a child sleeping in the same bed as their parent/s, no matter what internet hacks try to tell you.

VPN Issues (lemmy.world)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Hi all. Hoping someone can answer my question. I've set up a surfshark open VPN client on my home router (an Asus AX8) but it's causing me some issues.

I live in the UK and my kid loves watching cartoons on the BBC through our smart TV. Because the BBC app is location locked to the UK it doesn't work with the VPN on, and even when I've turned the VPN off in the router settings, my location seems to jump around all over the place, and I've confirmed this with IP location searches.

I'm aware I could run VPNs on every other device, but I'd really like to put my entire network behind the VPN (other than the TV) if possible. Is there a way of creating an exception for my TV so that it can bypass the VPN? If so can anyone advise how to do it? OR is there a way of location locking my VPN to show as being within the UK? Normally apps on my devices I can choose where I'm located, that doesn't seem to be an option on the router.

Any advice appreciated! Thanks!

 

Hi, brand new linux noob and am having issues right off the bat.

I've just installed Garuda Dr460nized edition on my Legion laptop, fresh install (no dual boot), run the updater, installed a few apps and first thing I see is a little warning that tells me I need to merge pacdiff files and the file affected is mirrorlist.pacnew.

Do a little reading, get the general gist of what I'm supposed to do, then use the distro bundled software (Kompare) to merge all differences, save, reboot. BUT, the warning it still there, and now, when I go back into kompare, it tells me the two files are identical, plus there seem to be a bunch a graphical bugs now that weren't there before I merged the files.

Very confused as to why this file, which just seems to be a list of various website mirrors, would cause graphical issues but like I said, I'm brand new to this, but determined to learn from my mistakes.

Can anyone explain what I've done wrong? I can't seem to undo the changes now.
