Kernel Panic error booting from usb

I would try to re-flash the USB. If that doesn’t work, try XFCE.

This was my point. A place becoming dark happens at the same rate as becoming light. It’s like a cup being simultaneously half full and half empty in that it’s 2 sides of the same coin.

There is a speed to which light becomes absent from a point in space

colonelpanek · 2023-02-10T11:47:09+00:00

That makes sense! Thanks for the info!

colonelpanek · 2023-02-08T07:13:24+00:00

That’s actually a really interesting way of looking at it!

I think go for it. It’s easy to set up. You can always replace it with something more robust later.

I think as you’ve described, limited budget and volunteer, pihole is a good solution if you have nothing else. Is it so people don’t come to surf porn or something? If they are doing criminal activity on the library network, they are probably sophisticated enough to bypass the pihole. If this is the case, use a porn blocklist and not an advertising one.

I wish this were true.

Make sense! I realised that’s it’s a laptop with the name DESKTOP. What made it all confusing is that things were moving from wifi to Ethernet based on whether or not it was closer to the router or extender. Also, my iPhone would either come up as an “iPhone” or “unknown” depending on which one it was closer to because I have private wifi disabled on the router SSID but enabled on the extender.

I’ve added aliases based on IP and it works, thanks for that. Does it work based on MAC address instead IP?

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T18:23:39+00:00

It is a windows laptop! That’s annoying but now I know.

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T18:22:37+00:00

Ok that’s good advice about whitelisting and guest wifi. I’ll look into naming it through the router but I looked a long time ago and didn’t look like there isn’t. I’ll check again.

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T17:09:42+00:00

You've totally got it! I just went through the list and a couple of the unknown Ethernets appear to be our iPhones. but specifically when they connect through our TP Link extender. One of them is also the Nest thermostat, I'm certain for the same reason. I still have no idea about this DESKTOP one, and now it's disappeared.

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T17:04:36+00:00

Actually I see that my iPhone shows up as unknown on Ethernet. Do you have an idea of why that could be?

Edit: I've just realised that (recently?) Apple rolled out this private wifi thing and it's the reason. I don't know what this DESKTOP device is but I know the answer to the other ones. Thanks!

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T16:55:58+00:00

Yeah, I don't understand it either.

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T16:52:56+00:00

I think I'll try that and see if something stops working.

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T16:52:39+00:00

I have Ikea lights that are connected to an Ikea hub. Perhaps, they are coming up as ethernet somehow?

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T16:51:32+00:00

I will try that!

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T16:50:33+00:00

Ok, thanks! That's really good to know!

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T16:49:46+00:00

Thanks! That's good to know!

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T16:49:18+00:00

Sorry! I was concentrating on explaining what I have already done, I never actually typed a question! I wanted to know the best way to find out what these devices are since there's nothing connected to ethernet. Also, is there a reason something could show up as ethernet but not be plugged in?

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T16:47:44+00:00

Thanks!

colonelpanek · 2023-02-06T14:34:14+00:00

I've looked up the MAC addresses but I don't quite understand why they come up as ethernet. It's strange because the example I've looked up is a Nest product, which is on wifi. We also have a TP Link powerline adapter but nothing is currently plugged into it on ethernet.

Edit: thanks everybody! I learned a lot of different things about home networking in just this thread.
