Re: extensie .wmz
Dan heeft de verzender MS Word gebruikt als editor voor MS Outlook. Als in het gebruikte MS Word template een header en footer zit, of eigen aanpassing, dat stuurt MS Outlook dat mee als een .wmz bestand: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com/forum/all/my-outlook-office-365-sometimes-gener...

Re: I'm looking for software. “Who created this file?”
If the program is packaged as a .deb file, you can ask your package manager. Because what you describe, that's what a package manager does: install files and keep track of which package installed which file. Synaptic Package Manager lets you lists the contents of installed packages. You can also use...

Re: How to change root admin acces and is it smart to delete other account with it?
It is, your new account is an admin. By default accounts you add are a member of their own group (same as the username) and if created as admin also of the sudo group. For printer settings you need some additional groups. Your old account will have the necessary groups. You can check with groups use...

Re: How to change root admin acces and is it smart to delete other account with it?
If you have no admin permissions on your new account, you can't delete the old account. Only admins can do that. Check first whether your new account is an admin or not: You can open Users & Groups program and check if your account is a member of the sudo group. Or open a terminal and run comman...

To put it into perspective: over the same time period ClaudeBot caused 20 times as much traffic as the 2nd worst bot and 40 times as much as the 3r worst bot. The traffic from all other bots combined was a blip in comparison. We've blocked several other bots in the past for doing the same as ClaudeB...

Re: Moving Unencrypted File to Encrypted Home
Yes that's how it works.
With the caveat that the magic of overlaying the virtual filesystem on top of the real one and on the fly encrypting/decrypting files happens only after you log in to the desktop with your account.

Re: Moving Unencrypted File to Encrypted Home
Home directory encryption uses eCryptfs, which is a "stacked filesystem". You have a real filesystem, stored on your disk, where the encrypted files are located and — when you are logged in to your account on the desktop — overlaying that you have a virtual filesystem which transparently e...

Re: New spectre vulnerability- is linux mint vulnerable?
The exploit relies on unprivileged eBPF functionality. That is disabled on Linux Mint 21.x at least, which should make it less likely to get exploited. Check with command sysctl kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled that it has value 2: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/sysctl/kernel.ht...

Re: How do I completely switch over to a new desktop environment?
Add one step: create a new user account for each new DE you want to try, and only use that user account to log in to that DE. Else what happens: each DE stores its config, cache and local data files in the user's home directory. So if you try them all on your own user account your home directory acc...
