I don't know much about Linux, but it's the system on the computer I share at home. I think I've become spoiled to it.
I recently started a new job and was issued a PC laptop. The amount of obnoxious pop-ups and AI crap that I can't seem to find settings to disable are infuriating. It's like the computer and the Google apps we use assume I can't do or figure out anything on my own.
Also, tangential, Gemini needs to stop suggesting itself - yes, I know you're there. I'm ignoring you because I can't seem to block you, but I wish you'd just leave me alone.
Is it a Chromebook? PC stands for personal computer. So a PC laptop could have any OS on it. The usual assumption is Windows but you said Gemini keeps harassing you and not Copilot so it sounds like it could be a Chromebook. Those used to be locked down horrible machines, but I haven't used one recently.
Ah yes, it is a Chromebook. Sorry, I didn't realize it was a whole separate thing. I'm not hip to new/modern computer stuff, haha.
