I have Firefox set up to delete cookies after every session. So perhaps it might be related to this

So do I, so thanks go to Steven.

... I use this page quite a lot, and even until yesterday I'd never seen this. Hi Kunkle. I don't worry about it. I never used to get it either but as I'm looking at buying a new, to me, bike I've been using it a lot over the last month and, as with you, started getting asked if I'm human. I didn't...

Thanks all, it's nice to be completely and utterly, um, insane.

Luckily, nothing to worry about.

:) Thanks for trying to reassure me, but I still think it's cavalier to install stuff (especially that kind of stuff!) without at least giving the (l)user a choice. Hi Kurt. I appreciate what you're saying but we do have a choice. In Update Manager we can right click on any update and ignore it. ED...

For me it came through yesterday. Please remember that it's an optional service, if you don't sign up for it, it just sits there and does nothing.

If you have a read of https://easylinuxtipsproject.blogspot.c ... .html#ID16 (16) then I think it pretty much explains it.

Hi NathanShirley.

I can, it's designed that way.

When I press the super key I see the cursor in the search box, so it's expecting input from my keyboard and not my mouse.

Having failed in my original intention https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtswPsHOT9w I’m certainly not going to start moaning about something I’ve done to myself; so I think I’m on Pjotrs side here.

Thanks!

Hi there! I'm running Mint 19.3 and I can't access update manager. I get this error E: Conflicting values set for option Signed-By regarding source https://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable: /usr/share/keyrings/google-chrome.gpg != E: The list of sources could not be read. I'm not really sure ...

To be honest, this grumbling is starting to annoy me. Especially because it is being used in a campaign against the agreement between Mozilla and Linux Mint. I'm wondering why none of the complainants favor the solution of increasing the technical resources of the main Mint repo servers so that the...

Hello Hope you are good + thank you for all you do .... Is there an idiots guide to Linux FIREWALL ? Hope we have a good week In love + solidarity Wendy Hi Wendy.

Hi vineyridge.

Also, Clem posted on the blog. https://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=3496

A bit of a guess here, but I think that as your Chip is a bit elderly (11/22/2007) it may be ‘exposed’ but the kernel etc have been patched.

Thanks dorset, that worked! I really appreciate it. I think I know what the problem was. I must have previously been a superuser because I never had any issues installing updates. But we recently moved and I haven't plugged this PC in week or so. It must have reverted somehow. Battery ran out? Hi T...

Do you mean that you need to type in the password? When you open update manager, if there are updates and you click to install them, it brings up a password box. Is that what you mean? No, after I type in the password the message in italics above pops up. This is the message I get: E: dpkg was inte...

Does anyone have experience of the Lenovo IdeaPad range? TIA, Tony Hi Tony. Mine’s 3 yrs old now and only 11th gen but using the Edge version of Mint it runs perfectly, but, I am a low level user.
