I'm not sure, but I would assume the laptop actually has less data than a phone, as my contact lists, etc are not embedded in the computer anywhere. I have already done "Sign Out of All Devices" for...

I got this laptop as a hand-me-down from someone, so I don't know, but I assume it had an HDD because it was quite old (~12+ years?). I don't know what this www.renet.jp service does with old...
Hmmm... I was guessing the same thing... that perhaps I only overwrote the boot partition of the drive, which would be small but prevent the computer from being able to boot normally, but which would...
I sent an old Dell Inspiron 15 3000 series laptop to a recycling agency (https://www.renet.jp). Initially, I had planned to remove the hard drive and use it as an backup external drive. However,...
Because of my living circumstances, location, poverty, and benign contents of my laptop, house guests and intruders are not a concern. I have a very simple set-up: modem, wi-fi router, a few devices...
I installed the new Lubuntu 22.04 LTS. I only have one user account, I have nothing to hide from my family, and I basically never take the laptop outside my home. Therefore, I set the SDDM.conf...
You can also add
Relogin=true
to the sddm.conf file.
I think I found my answer. The search term "computer localization" brings up lots of information I am looking for rather than using the term "language" to search.
@TheFu - thanks
I want to learn about languages (English, Spanish, Chinese, Indian, etc...) in OSs/computing at a level more basic than "how to". When I try Googling for education sources on this topic, I get lots...
I think you just re-stated the basis of my question. My question is, why is the "upgrade" command doing different upgrades depending on whether its apt or apt-get? Shouldn't they be doing the same...
I thought 'apt' was just supposed to break out some useful commands from 'apt-get' but that they are supposed to do the same thing. But when I 'upgrade', I get different results using 'apt' vs...
I didn't know, didn't even imagine, there was a Teams app for Linux. Will check it out, thanks! The only browser add-on I really, really want is a website translator.
Okay, thank you both.
It's frustrating because for a long time I was using Chromium on Lubuntu 17.10 on the same laptop, and it worked great for a long time, maybe years. I could have like 15 tabs open in Chromium, no...
I received a Dell Inspiron laptop from a stranger who gave it to me instead of throwing it away. I successfully installed Lubuntu 20.04 using the Erase Disc method with the installer.
I'm...
Yeah, thanks. Somebody recommended that, too, but I've got to write it down for my dumb brain sometime before the freeze.
Well, today is froze again, and when it did, nothing was working. Not Ctrl+Alt+T and not Ctrl+Fn+Alt+F2 or any other hotkey combos. I had to hard-restart with the power button again. Very...
I think you mean cackling, not laughing.
Thank you, TheFu and dragonfly41. You might be interested to continue following this topic in this other thread... ...
Thanks. I did try uBlock, and I think it helps.
Yeah, my bad. Sorry. See above and below.
Indeed. I only use it to play movies on my wife's computer. It is slow to get going using...
Sorry. I should know better... I don't know the most efficient way to do this, but I ran a bunch of terminal commands and compiled the information...

Now, see, I didn't even know that, but it works on my computer! Thanks!
I set it to 2 today, and I didn't have any problems while using Microsoft O365 Teams website. I got through work without having to re-start. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but maybe you solved...
Yes, I have uBlock Origin. I think it actually improved performance with YouTube, although to be honest YouTube seems to be getting slower. It was slow after initial install, then uBlock Origin...
I posted this thread recently about Microsoft Teams websites freezing my browser/system. I have also had issues recently with YouTube, Hotmail, and just now Google Maps froze everything. This is...
