Subject: These 6 Linux myths you still believe simply aren't true

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Linux is everywhere. It's on the majority of servers, powers the Steam Deck handheld gaming device, and is slowly creeping up the desktop OS charts (and no, 2025 won't be the year of Linux). It's a fantastic operating system that isn't an OS.

Subject: How to see your IP address in Ubuntu

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

An IP address is like your physical mailing address. Once you connect a Linux distribution like Ubuntu to the Internet or a router, your system gets assigned two IP addresses. There's the private one, which is used to identify your device on an internal network, and the public IP address, which is what websites see when you connect.
