  • Anyone have an idea about Chromebooks?

    Only that they're a walled garden experience provided by the most surveillance-capitalist company there is.

    But I'm not sure this is a constructive thought TBH.

    To your prior question, so long as you're using their store (I assume they have one) for all apps... I guess you're as safe as you can be from malware and antivirus... and that no you shouldn't install one as I'm not sure with the sandboxing that it could work anyway... but also if there is malware in the apps you download you're going to be screwed... as always the best advice for any computer platform is to only install what you actually need and don't install anything else.

    So do no evil ;) it is cheap, and has a long battery life.

    Wondering as yesterday was getting issues contacting three different car part websites all mentioning ddos attacks so was wondering if it was the Chromebook.

  • Could be an adblocker or script blocker, I've had similar in the past (not on Chromebook).

    Or it could be the same car part website with different skins, it's more common than you think...
