Re: [Networking] Bluetooth always disabled when starting Debian 12
What desktop environment are you using (Gnome, KDE, etc.)? You could check whether for some reason Bluetooth daemon is disabled during boot.

Re: Quack remedies for the server
If there's a way to enforce non-stupid passphrases on pubkeys, I'd be all for it... But AFAIK there isn't, so unless you can secure the client you're just trading a brute-force target you can control for one you can't. Maybe someone would be kind enough to implement pam_cracklib support for ssh-key...

Re: Proxychains and apt-get command.
How did you install proxychains? Your error might indicate that variable LD_PRELOAD doesn't include correct path to libproxychains.so.3, so you might need to locate it and export the variable. This would have been very easy for you to find out with a little searching. I installed proxychains with ap...

Re: Installing current kernel
... Debian now sign all their release kernels to enable Secure Boot which isn't possible with a locally-compiled version (or the Liquorix kernels).

Re: Installing current kernel
It's rather simple to download current (or desired) kernel source version from kernel.org and build your own deb-packages from it. Debian Administrator's Handbook has pretty hands-on guide about compiling kernel from source . There are some newer deb-packages available in backports -repositories, . ...

Re: Stretch vulnerability?
Though you didn't ask this, while XP might not be visible from outside of LAN, anything that can access or pivot from something else in the LAN is a risk. So just acknowledge that if something else is compromised in your local network, XP most likely is the next step. And of course, any device compr...

Another perfectly valid option in my opinion is to download the tar from Mozilla and run it from your home folder. Just create a symlink e.g. in /usr/local/bin to Firefox executable. You can create shortcut in whatever DE/WM you have. There are of course downsides, which include not having debian -s...
