All of the issues were caused by Windows. Switching them to Mint was seamless experience and everyone has been happier after the move.
You can get adapters to convert USB A to C. YMMV for that, though. I'm not the primary user of these computers, so I needed to make sure the trackpads were working properly.
Files were already backed up at multiple locations. I wasn't using cmd.exe to transfer files. I was using it to attempt to fix broken WiFi and touchpad drivers.
why would you need to run updates on the old systems at all?
When I was in the process transitioning my lab from Windows 10+11 to Linux Mint, I was spending more time in Windows' cmd.exe attempting to debug issues introduced through Windows Update than the Linux Terminal.
Yep. Legend of the Galactic Heroes.

This and .desktop files. Don't forget your OS is already a launcher.
It's very cute that YouTube keeps showing an "experiencing interruptions?" message when there are no interruptions.
I'm still not getting a TikTok account

I use RSS to aggregate my aggregators because I don't like my reading and commenting to be tied to a single platform
8GB is enough for Windows 11. Issues only arise if you open any applications while Windows is running.
And 80 of them are just VLC player
You have control over what you see in your feeds. I was talking more about the volume in content on my feeds here. Could've worded my post better.
