just adding a note to this, not trying to steal the previous answer πŸ™‚

try googling your laptop model and CMOS battery for images so you know what and where to look if you want to try replacing it. Some require dismantling of almost the entire laptop to find, so researching is recommended if you are not experienced with this type of work. There are also guides and manuals online on how to change it on some models.

Good luck! πŸ™‚

Would it be possible to add a filter to not show read posts? I know you can hide some by using the FAB button but there is no option to just hide them all. Sorry if this has been asked before.

just what you said, only pointed out there is a quote/theory that could apply here.

often we overcomplicate instead of seeing the simple explanation. the theorem applies to many cases, not just to solve problems.

I am not saying that the theorem is or isn't correct here, I was just mentioning it as it sort of fits the last couple of sentences in the comment.

I did not mean to say anything about this case in particular, just a comment to the simplest explanation/solution is often the correct one.

I am sorry if this came out confusing or out of context as this was not my intention.

it's called Occam's Razor, put simply, states: β€œthe simplest solution is almost always the best.” It's a problem-solving principle arguing that simplicity is better than complexity.

it depends on the people you ask, there is no rule or right way to do anything, at least not as I have discovered so far, so correct me if I am wrong.

a lot of the frustration and overwhelming you feel now, could be because your body reacts to being off the medicine and it needs some time to adjust before it's back to normal. it's a tough period, but it will get better, at least that's my experience when going off certain medicine.

I have no medical training so this is just my experience, and if you feel unsure or unsafe, please contact the nearest medical service to get help.

but I feel for you and as I've repeatably have said now, in my experience it gets better, just keep in there!

good luck and hope you'll be okay!

probably have/had an office at that location so it would still see German based, but yes, does not look good, or it "does" until you know ..

that one was made in Russia according to the printed text..and in October 2022 if I read the date stamp correctly? and LEDVANCE is a company name, not product name, it was splitted out of OSRAMS LED division in 2016.

Ledvance GmbH, headquartered in Garching bei MΓΌnchen, Germany, is a general lighting and smart home technology company. It was established in 2016 as a spin-off from Osram Licht AG. Since April 2018, Ledvance has been wholly owned by Chinese lighting company MLS.[3] ....

In April 2015, it was announced that Osram would divest its general lighting lamp business, which accounted for just over one-third of its workforce. In June 2015, the supervisory board of Osram Licht AG agreed to the divestment of their lamp division with products such as LED lamps, halogen lamps, and compact fluorescent lamps.[4][5] This divested division has been operating as a legally independent company under the name Ledvance since April 2016.

At the end of July 2016, Osram announced that Ledvance would be sold for more than €500 million[8] to a Chinese consortium consisting of investor IDG Capital, LED packaging manufacturer MLS, and Yiwu. The sale was completed on 3 March 2017, with economic effect as of 1 March 2017.[9][10][11] Due to the takeover, MLS gained distribution networks in Europe and the United States.[12][13] Since April 2018, MLS has been the sole owner of Ledvance

not sure you can make OSRAM responsible for what a Chinese company does in Russia?

edit: should have updated the text on thought, but perhaps not the first priority or something considered important in Russia.

might be possible to use seabios as a UEFI boot and have it act as a bios (as it is a bios "emulator"), never been down that rabbit hole, but perhaps there is someone who has if you search / ask around

Git repo of seabios: https://github.com/coreboot/seabios/tree/master

not sure if it will work, just hit me when I read this. anyways, good luck, hope you get it sorted/working πŸ™‚

it probably runs as root.. all things considered..

my bad, not that familiar with asian languages and my first guess was Chinese, sorry about that.

But my guess is stil bad translation, and that the sign might be from a time before instant translation service or even mobile phones. there is a history of these signs from back then.

Anyways, I have shared my opinion and will leave it at that πŸ™‚

Have a great day and weekend πŸ™‚

sure, but a Chinese to English translation service does πŸ™‚

in the "old days", the translations where not as good as now, they still are pretty bad if you translate between different languages a couple of times. Babelfish in its time was horrible.

I believe that the translation services in Asia are not as updated as in other places of the world, they many places does not have access to Google translate for instance. So I guess this is just a bad example of the translation being literate word for word instead of taking the whole sentance into consideration.

but that's just my theory and I could be wrong πŸ™‚

funny either way πŸ™‚

as an example of bad translations / understandings:

"In case of fire, do your utmost to alarm the hotel porter."

"Please don't handle the fruit. Ask for Debbie' (Sign in a greengrocer's) '"

"ANY PERSONS (EXCEPT PLAYERS) CAUGHT COLLECTING GOLF BALLS ON THIS COURSE WILL BE PROSECUTED AND HAVE THEIR BALLS REMOVED"

from the book https://www.amazon.com/Broken-English-Spoken-Perfectly-Collection/dp/1904945074

it's quite humorous, and based on bad translations

(edit: added an example)

"Please do not throw away trash here".. the correct translation ..
