You could backup a save folder like this: cd /mnt/home tar czf /mnt/sda6/fossapup64savefolder.tar.gz fossapup64save/ gzip should be faster but take more space xz should be slower but the backup file should be a little smaller.

I've been playing with youtube video playing for a while this Sunday and I finally settled on something some what enjoyable. And that is using a combination with SMTube + Seamonkey.

This is what I mean that every time I try to input a firewall rule it does not feel stable...not sure if fossa specific but I find it hard to input my own firewall rules...

One thing that I find peculiar is why is firefox offering DoH? Or chrome too... when they need to gather information about the user for targeting advertisements. I have a feeling that their DoH is not really secure and they can just put a certificate in the middle to be able to see the traffic. Adgu...

Is there a way do edit a file to change the default Cloudfare DNS?

I am trying to make it work on Fatdog64. I have it running and working except I cannot change the default DNS so I am thinking if I can edit the default DNS to one of my own?

I have tried and tested them and they do give big improvements... even more if they have a reflector attached to them. The picture that I am showing is just me testing the WIFi signal gains.

I tried to do one earlier and when I did this "ren dd.exe dd-removeable.exe" the next step to do dd --list did not work because dd.exe got renamed to dd-removeable.exe.... the common sense just made me type dd-removeable --list and it showed my hard drive partitions but not my USB stick......

On the very first puppy boot up I don't install any software instead I reboot and do a 4GB save file for my settings. Then after I am satisfied with my set up, I back up that file and keep it in a save place to restore in the future...then I do increment changes and more back ups deleting the previo...

This example is for fossapup64 but it works for others. I use a third party bootloader called EasyBCD (the free community support): https://neosmart.net/EasyBCD/ I just put the .iso in the root of any partition and rename the iso to anything...in my example I renamed Fossapup64 to "puppyy"...
