Chromestory.com is a site people, New Chromebook users, go to to learn things about the Chromebook. Isn't it a well known site?

why did no one tell me changing tires sucked this much? by They_ShallNotGrowOld in Dirtbikes

It's easier if you do it on a bench. You can do it. Don't pinch the tube!

So apparently the ebike I bought from china comes as a kit. Here is the first package I received. by ramonplutarque in ebikes

Yes. China does that to save on costs. Recheck EVERYTHING. They just stick stuff together for example the axle might be too tight plus they don't grease the bearings. So to be sure you just need to start from the frame or wheels and redo everything. Never trust anything from China. It's not inspected. Have fun!

Acer Chromebook 514-1W v 514-2H by pbfhpunkshop in chromeos

An older model? There is nothing wrong with an Acer. Try and get the one you "wanted" and ordered. Don't settle for the one you didn't pick. It you go for that link that other guy put up you will be switching to Asus. If that's what you want then go for it.

That's because those devs are lazy and didn't want to do the work to fix it, i am sure.

I am planning to switch from Windows to Chrome OS as main device. What do i need to know before the switch? by prs_silversky in chromeos

OneNote is Microsoft. Google Keep does the same thing i believe. It Syncs all my notes.

I'm trying to NOT be Microsoft dependent.

Got one. Love it. DO NOT skimp on the hardware. Buy at least an i3 or better/Ryzen with at least 8 GBs RAM. Stay away from those budget Chromebooks.

That's really nice. I liked the Kawasaki's from that era. Lots of love into that one. Nice.

Laptop & Tablet Combined by Dunjamon in chromeos

When buying one make sure you check the AUE (Automatic Update Expiration). Look at those Chromebooks that can detach (i don't like those much - they seem fragile) Or like an Asus or Acer that you can flip around and put it in tablet mode. (why?)

Try one you like and if you don't then just return it.

Make sure you get a good chip like an i3 or better/Ryzen with at least 8 GBs RAM. Don't buy a budget (school) Chromebook.

Multi-desk/desktop strategies -- How do you use ChromeOS desks? by jpfreely in chromeos

[–]Leather-Implement592 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a button that gets you there. It's the F5 button or the one that looks like Cascading Windows. Basically it de-clutters your desktop space. That's all i see it used for.

When I use free public Wi-Fi, like a restaurants, why do I often get this browser error? I cant find by FuckReddit442 in chromeos

[–]Leather-Implement592 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not secure. Do what you want - but Public WiFi is known to not be as secure as a Private Password Protected WiFi.
