VS Code on Lenovo ideaPad duet 5?
because they come rather bare, you'll have to do some setup for your Crostini containers (e.g., I use crostini-kde-setup: Initialize a Chromebook Linux container to run KDE Apps since I like the KDE apps),

I have a chromeOS problem
Hmmm: * re: "what are you using them for?" I have Chromebooks in several rooms for convenience. Besides the obvious browsing, google docs, etc., I run Crostini with a few KDE apps (using CROSTINI KDE SETUP) and Linux games (e.g., Aisleriot). I use the KDE apps to access my Linux server for management, etc. * re: "why are chromeboxes not more popular?" (1) Every time I considered a Chromebox, they seem poor values (I think the volume is too low for good pricing). (2) They have a AUE which devalues them. * aside: it seems the price differential has shrunk between a Windows laptop and Chromebook of similar specs; the hassle of Crostini makes Chromebooks about as much maintenance as Linux (on a repurposed Windows laptop) and the Linux/Windows laptops don't have AUE. So, in my case, I've bought my last Chromebook (unless the status quo is disturbed).

How do I get rid of these "ghost" icons from my Chromebook shelf?
For reasons I don't understand, sometimes the Linux icons do not get mapped correctly. More or less, you can move all the .desktop files, sleep a bit, and put them back, and that might fix them. Personally, I use crostini-kde-setup to prep my linux container and do maintenance. To roll-your-own, its maintcli uses these commands:

So Restoring Crostini has been at 100% now for 45 mins.
Probably, too little, too late (and perhaps not helpful), but I've always found Crostini restores unreliable. In my experience, it helps if you reboot just before the restore, but backups sometimes just don't work. In the best cases, they are time killers because backup/restore is so slow. So, personally, I consider Crostini containers "disposable"; and I use a script to re-install quickly (starting with Crostini-KDE-Setup), and I don't keep any data within the container that is painful to lose.

Benefit of Linux?
BTW, I use crostini-kde-setup to set up a usable Linux quickly. Having Discover installed lets you browse and install apps w/o having to learn the Linux command line interface.

My first week with a Chromebook was kindda ok
BTW, I normally install crostini-kde-setup, and then "upgrade" to Debian Sid (Debian Testing would be similar). This advances all your apps and the kernel to nearly the latest (rather than pokey old Debian Stable). You can do that upgrade (or similar switch-outs) all yourself with some research.

Crouton vs. Crostini and ideal Chromebooks for Linux use
On the Chromebook, I'd then install https://github.com/joedefen/crostini-kde-setup and run Debian "unstable". Then use the Chromebook/Chrome for what it does best, and augment it with the Linux apps you need (and that provides a good starter set).

Useful Tools and Programs for Chrome OS
I personally use https://github.com/joedefen/crostini-kde-setup ... and somehow covers completely different topics, but, for its coverage, it makes doing things a one-button push rather than simply giving instructions.

YouTube's Ad Blocker Crackdown Is Getting Harder to Dodge
It does not actually clicks on the ads. It sends the request to ad server but does not execute any response from the server, so it's safe to run

AdNauseam: uBlock Origin fork silently clicking ads
>https://github.com/dhowe/AdNauseam/wiki/FAQ#how-does-adnause...
>AdNauseam 'clicks' Ads by issuing an HTTP request to the URL to which they lead. In current versions the is done via an XMLHttpRequest (or AJAX request) issued in a background process. This lightweight request signals a 'click' on the server responsible for the Ad, but does so without opening any additional windows or pages on your computer. Further it allows AdNauseam to safely receive and discard the resulting response data, rather than executing it in the browser, thus preventing a range of potential security problems (ransomware, rogue Javascript or Flash code, XSS-attacks, etc.) caused by malfunctioning or malicious Ads. Although it is completely safe, AdNauseam's clicking behaviour can be de-activated in the settings panel.
Isn't this easily detectable? XHRs are easily detectable through various headers, so it's trivial to filter out the fake traffic from this extension. Failing that, thanks to ad fraud there's a whole industry of bot/ad fraud detection firms using browser fingerprinting and behavioral analysis to detect fake ad clicks. I have no doubt that an extension that's "clicking" on every ad using XHR is going to get detected and filtered.

Subreddits have proposed a blackout from June 12-14. Third party users should join them and avoid Reddit during that period.
I'd think it's infeasible for advertisers to regularly audit third-party apps on reddit's behalf to make sure the ads they're paying to display aren't being requested but cosmetically hidden or even shadow-clicked. I'm sincerely curious if there are any example platforms that do this with their API; I can't find anything after a search.

Lifelong Chrome user switching to Firefox, are there any extensions that are a MUST on the browser?
Other than that, Libredirect and AdNauseam to be pretty neat. Allows me to avoid using certain sites directly and when I do, I mess with their ads engagement enough. A bit petty, but I'll take what I can get.
