How can i rsync over my network without using ssh?
I have 6 devices that i rsync to a central location to back them up. Ive been using ssh as the -e option.

What is a distro with updates of Arch but dependencies of Fedora?
I am currently using EndeavourOS, but am annoyed by the constant daily updates of 1GB and pacman not installing important dependencies automatically (ex: spell checker for document editor). I like the way Fedora works: you update whenever, important dependencies are downloaded automatically, and packages are recent-ish, but I...
What's (are) the funniest/stupidest way(s) you've broken your linux setup?
Tinkering is all fun and games, until it’s 4 am, your vision is blurry, and thinking straight becomes a non-option, or perhaps you just get overly confident, type something and press enter before considering the consequences of the command you’re about to execute… And then all you have is a kernel panic and one thought...
Do any Spanish speaking countries play (American) football and if so what's the best way to watch it?
I’m learning Spanish, and I’m getting decent at reading it but I’m trying to immerse myself in it more since I still can’t understand it very well. so I was wondering if I could find something I really enjoy like football and watch it in Spanish. I know the NFL probably has a Spanish football channel but I like college...

How can I clean my mouse wheel without taking apart my mouse?

Can I pre-install Ubuntu on an SSD?

I’m trying to install my first Linux distro to set up a Plex server and one of the few things I know is you need a wired internet connection. My intended server location is across the house from my router, and there isnt much room there to set up...

I'm so frustrated rn.
I have been distro hopping for about 2 weeks now, there’s always something that doesn’t work.
