[Solved] Did I Just bricked my laptop?

Thank you all very much for your replies and help. Removing the disk and battery helped, the laptop turned on to UEFI settings. But does anyone have an idea how to solve this bootloop with Ubuntu now? Fresh system and partitioning through the default settings of the ubuntu 25.04 installer. When I turn it on this message appears for a few seconds and then the computer resets. One tutorial on the internet told me to turn on secure boot but as you can see from my first post it didn't do anything.

why polish teens seem to like russian culture more than polish adults?

Because of propaganda. There is a lot of missinformations. Even people in their late twenty's or before 30, often they compare EU to USSR, they are to young to remember USSR from their own lives and they believes in propaganda about it.

This is evident even from the results of the presidential elections where at least two candidates were openly pro-Russian. But it didn't matter, because in discussions among ordinary people the main criteria for the election were fear of gays, EU immigrants and immigrants from Ukraine. Folks want easy explanations of difficult problems so there is a group of people which gives them that. It's easy to blame everything on gays, the evil and leftist European Union, immigrants from Ukraine for driving expensive cars or “living off social benefits” and then show up in Russia and say “look what a nice conservative country, there are no such problems here.” Of course, I'm generalizing a bit, but this is more or less the reasoning of many people, including young people, who take their message from conspiracy theories on tiktok and YouTube. This is a really serious problem in Poland.

Standard notes: what about don’t put all your eggs in one basket rule?

Reply in thread

I know these apps but none of them is as good as standard notes in my opinion. Notesnook seems fine but I don't like fact that it is based in Pakistan. I used Joplin before buying a sub for standard notes so I know it.

Currently I have also subscription on Crypt.ee for photos but there is also a notes app integrated. Maybe I'll start using it. Developer of cryptee was very active on reddit and he seems like a man who values privacy and security.

But I hope that simply proton will not force the migration of standard notes accounts to proton accounts and for old users everything will be as before.

Hate being lonely

Reply in thread

Yes sometimes I try to talk with someone, sometimes it's enforced by teachers when do we have to finish group work. Meeting people in university is ok but I still feel like my age is a hindrance. I'm 27yo when my groupmates are all in their early 20s. I feel old to them, especially when it comes to women. I have a few people I talk to when I'm at university, but still, I only talk to them at university.
