I use ProtonVPN and it sets up a "leak shield" interface when you start it and destroys that when you end it. It keeps traffic from flowing out over the non-vpn internet. The problem is, if the VPN crashes or doesn't shut down gracefully, that interface kills all traffic.

To test if it's something like that, try pinging an outside address, first by name and then by IP. If you can't get either, it's not the DNS messing you up. If you CAN ping the IP but not the name, then it is the DNS messing you up.

As a Canuck, I'm pretty much going to welcome anyone fleeing the Mango Mussolini.

I've got 10 hours in a little ultralight. Pre-diagnosis. I'm not looking to fly a jet fighter. I get more G's in a hang glider.

See, and this is why... Except, again, I only faint standing up. Ever.

I will never be able to get a small engine private pilot license due to fainting, despite it literally never happening unless I'm standing up...

Guys... "sudo." Four characters.

I have LMDE on an old Lenovo Yoga, but it doesn't disable the keyboard when in tablet mode. It's on my list of crap I need to fix. Make sure to check that behavior before you go full install.

"The Lobsters are coming!" I once yelled that into the PA system at a grocery store. People were asking them when the Lobsters were going to arrive for weeks after. (Landlocked province, lobster is a treat.)

Some Fedora variants do that too. Not sure which ones.

And don't get ME started on autocorrect!
