To be honest I haven’t had the need or the time to delve that deeply into how Timeshift works sorry.

You should be able to highlight the ones that you want to remove then click on the delete button.

From what I understand is that each backup is just the difference between the original backup and the current system.

From the top rope!

Have a look at XNview MP

I can definitely say that it is avery good photo management program.

I am only using about 20% of it’s features and it is my go to image software.

“Hello Clarice”

What I do is start up Firefox first to create all the first start files then close it and delete everything in the Firefox folder then copy across everything from the original pc.

Seems to work alright.

I have had several distros working on the X205TA (I even had a how to guide written up on reddit years ago).

But I was not able to get a usable system (i.e. being able to use the system without waiting on average 20-120 sec for the device to process an action).

Life has gotten to the point that the effort to do so is better directed into activities that I would enjoy.

To be brutally honest about this, your best bet is to recycle the unit.

The problems of trying to get a distro to install properly, have all the hardware working right and have a usable experience are not worth the minimal upsides.

I have an ASUS X205TA which is a similar unit and after trying for countless hours to get a usable device out of it was not going to be worth the headaches plus if I was getting paid for the time I spent on it I could have brought an off lease laptop with better specs.

I have an LTS kernel as a backup in case something doesn’t work with my main kernel.

Just recently I had an issue where my main kernel had a bug where snap’s can’t start up, so I just restarted into the LTS kernel to use it then restarted back into my main kernel.

I have used a Logitech G440 Hard Gaming Mouse Mat for the last 20 something years.

It’s gotten a bit battered and starting to de-laminate on one edge but it’s still perfectly usable even after all these years.

If you can, get yourself a wireless access point instead.

You can connect the computer by ethernet to the access point that then connects to the WiFi network.

By having the device separate you can have it situated away from the computer for better connection and the computer only sees a wired connection.

Plus they tend to be more stable than dongles.

Try going into a menu first.

Just had fun with this with my optiplex 790.

Things I have found:

If you are using the front USB ports try the lower ports.

Make sure that you have formatted your live USB properly.

On boot press F12 to get the one time boot menu, if everything is right you should get a menu that gives you legacy boot options with UEFI boot options below that.

The big thing here is that not all live distros appear to work with the Dell UEFI implementation (got Linux Lite and Manjaro working)

There is usually basic over discharge protection in the flashlight circuitry and over charge protection for lights with on light charging.

This usually works in conjunction with the protection circuit on the batteries.

18650 batteries (and other sizes) have become more wide spread because of the increased safety of protected batteries.

The batteries OP wants to use are unprotected cells who’s manufacturer is unknown, actual capacity is questionable and how they have been handled is unknown.

No,

Lights designed for charging removable batteries will (usually) have charging circuit designed for protected batteries as they expect the battery to provide feedback on voltage, temps etc.

Random unprotected cells should be charged in an external charger in a fire resistant area and used extremely carefully in lights you don’t mind loosing.

The only thing I would recommend for you to do is send them in for recycling.

Just be wary of them as they are likely unprotected cells.

Batteries made for flashlights will have a protection circuit board on it to protect against over & under voltage and sometimes overheating.

Unprotected batteries do not have a circuit board on them and are usually protected by the device that they are installed into.

You can use them BUT you have to be incredibly careful with them as if things go wrong you will be holding what has essentially become a small pipe bomb.

This is why you back up your data!

I use both Timeshift and Lucky Backup.

Timeshift is setup to back up the entire OS and user data and fire off a backup when updating (onto an internal drive).

Lucky Backup has been setup to do a one way sync of my user folders (doc’s, download, pictures, videos etc) onto an external drive.

Yep and in game menu.

I had the same issue when playing Minecraft until I realized that I had to go into a menu so the game would unlock the mouse &/or keyboard.
