Hey, I know it's been awhile but I have another question. For crypto currencies, my only options are bitcoin, dogecoin, litecoin and dash (assuming that dash is a crypto currency, I wasn't able to find anything about what it actually is), can I use any of these four currencies with metamask?

One Linux distro I'm aware of that might be worth checking out is Q4OS. It's a lightweight distro that offers an older but still supported 32bit version.
Okay, I'll check that out. Thank you.
Also, I'll be fine if I can't use Ubuntu Touch, but I just don't want to be locked into exclusively relying on emulators. If what I read is wrong and there actually isn't a way to run Linux applications on them, then I might have to go with the android based ones.
I have also heard that some of them come with, or at least you can set them up to have a dual boot between android and Linux. So regardless of whether or not you can actually run Linux applications on them, I can still use android as a backup if needed, assuming that it's true.
I've actually been kind of interested in the Anbernic devices, especially because some of them apparently come with Linux. I've heard that the Linux distro they use is Batocera, which is just a frontend for emulators, but I have also heard that their devices do support normal distros like Ubuntu Touch. The only reason I haven't bought one is because they just didn't seem worth it at the time. It does seem like their hardware has improved since I last checked, so maybe I'll buy one at some point.
Most modern video games. I don't have the ability to, not only buy games from most digital storefronts, but also buy a device that actually has the specs to run them. And when you take into consideration the fact that most modern games are live service games, that means that I probably wont even be able to play them by the time that I do manage to get a device that could have ran them. It's difficult to get hyped over a game I know I probably wont be able to play.
Here's the thing, I have no idea what my parents tell the police because, if I try to explain my situation to them, they ignore everything I say and they start speaking louder while acting like their about to pull their guns out on me. I don't know if they would try to shoot me but I'm not about to find out.
And as for my sister, I don't even talk to her anymore. It just seems like she hates me for some reason. For example, the last time I talked to her was when I asked her if I could use her old laptop because it's been sitting in the basement for several years and I don't like leaving tech unused if I know I might be able to use it. She never answered my question and just said "Why the fuck do you want that? Get out of my room.".
I've previously mentioned that I'm pretty sure I have access to my birth certificate but if you read the list of requirements on the link I gave you, you'll see that it only covers 3 of the 5 (technically 6) requirements. I do have access to my SSN card but that still leaves the fifth (and sixth) requirement unfulfilled. As for sneaking out, I tried that multiple times over the years and every time I was escorted back home in a police car before I could even get to my destination. I can't even go to the grocery store on my own without having my parents calling the police on me.
The main reason why my parents are like this, is because I was diagnosed with autism back in middle school. Ever since then, my parents (and really my entire family) have started treating me differently.
And it's like, I'm not even trying to get a job or a bank account. I'm okay with not having them, what my issue is, is that because I'm limited to using "beer money" sites and apps to be able to buy things, I'm very limited as to where and what I can buy. I used to be able to buy pretty much anything I wanted to if I put in the work but then Swagbucks changed their policy so that you now require an ID to do pretty much anything on their website. I still have access to and use InstaGC but there's only 3 websites that I use and can actually use with the gift cards they offer. I also use Bing but that's both even more limited and extremely slow to earn enough points to actually buy anything. Every other app/website I know of is either not worth using, a scam or I'm hesitant to use because I'm starting to have trust issues with these websites and apps.
And seeing that America is slowly turning into a second Nazi Germany, I'm not optimistic for the future of these websites and apps.
A utility bill would be one of two I need but my parents pay the bills online, so we don't get physical bills anymore. I also haven't tried calling them because I already know that they are just going to tell me to look at their list of acceptable documents.
Okay, thanks again. The reason I asked about PayPal was because there are some websites that I want to be able to purchase things but PayPal is the only option they accept for at least some things. I saw that Coin Cards offers prepaid credit cards and I have read that, while PayPal requires either a bank account or a credit card to use, they might allow prepaid credit cards to be used instead, so I thought I'd ask just to make sure.
Okay, thank you. I'll check these out. Also, I have two kind of a random but still related questions. Do you know if I'd be able to use PayPal exclusively with prepaid credit cards? And, do you know if I can use both gift cards and prepaid credit cards through VPNs?
How do I setup a crypto wallet? The only time I tried crypto was back when I still used the Brave web browser and I wasn't able to redeem the BAT that I earned without setting up a crypto wallet through a website that required an ID. If it's just an issue with how Brave handles their crypto currency, I do know of some other sources of crypto that I can try using.

Is Linux Mint's package repository having issues or is the problem on my end? (Solved, I think)
(lemmy.ml)
Edit: Last night, I used the "Fix MergeList problems" option in the maintenance tab of software sources and at least for now, it seems to be working. So I probably wont need help with this anymore, hopefully.
Every hour or two, the Update Manager keeps giving me an error message saying that my APT configuration is corrupt and that I should switch to another Linux Mint mirror. It usually goes away when I do a manual refresh but it just keeps coming back. I have also tried switching to a different mirror but I get the same error. It also tells me to run apt-get update but even if I add "sudo" it just gives me an error message saying to run apt-get update.
It happened again so I'm adding screenshots in case they help. The first is the initial error, then it's the error I get when I try to change the repository and the third is the error I get when I try running the command it suggested:

For some reason I couldn't find the FAQs when I tried to look for it. But it seems like the options I have available to me aren't supported by metamask. This might not be much of a problem though, as I've found another way to get prepaid credit cards. The only problem is that they can't actually be used on PayPal, which means I wont be able to buy some games from Itchio but most developers release their games through Steam, so I should be able to buy them there.
