Google is the new IBM
What can you expect from a company that in 2024 does not yet have a Linux client for Google Drive?

Barcelona, Spain. The building is owned by a telephony operating company. I understand that this is an old control to manually switch phone calls

Only 4. You need a CD-ROM to complete the installation (https://www.serverbrain.org/troubleshooting-2000/install-by-using-setup-diskettes-and-a-cdrom.html)

I always love working with partitions because of the knowledge it gives you, but it is also certainly dangerous and from time to time it is unnevitable to suffer an accident. In any case I always try to do this type of operations with parted and if possible with GUI (gparted).
Being in the photo situation, can't you make a fsck as the error messages tell you?
fsck /dev/nvme0n1p2
If not, the most practical would be, IMHO, to boot from a rescue live, e.g. https://www.system-rescue.org/Download/ Once booted, you can lift the graphical interface with startx and do with gparted the operations you need on these partitions.

I am researching the claim that Chromium is more secure than Firefox
I don't use chromium on Linux, because the times I tried it, I see that it is not easy to close it (its service is in the background with an icon in the tray) and I see that it consumes CPU, as if you are doing some activity, type of cryptocurrency mined or similar. I suppose it will be easy to check, but I prefer not to waste time on it and I use Firefox. I'm lately trying Librewolf

It's a marvellous feeling, right?
We thank Dave for his decisive contribution. For future occasions try to backup everything before doing operations of this type. This small script works very well for me:

That allows you to backup even hot systems. Just mount an external disc in /home/cya and run the script with sudo...

Collected oooover the years.I have been lucky enough to discover fascinating devices, on many occasions always after their time had passed, but just before they became a rarity, so I was able to get many of them at reasonable prices

It is a Telefonica building located in Plaza Artós. I do not know what they will do with this beauty, since these days they are working emptying the entire plant that was occupied with copper installation. These weeks in Spain are finalizing the definitive elimination of copper lines, in favor of optic fiber

HP 12C
I bought this one for about 60 € a couple of years ago, the seller made me promise to take care of her well. I do it; I carry it all day in my bag and I use it from time to time

The existing file system appears to have been damaged possibly because cfdisk has not adjusted (shrinked) the existing file system before changing the partition settings. In my case, this kind of thing I only dare to do with gparted if partitions contain file systems with data.
I would try the second option I mentioned above, as my last chance: to start a live-rescue and look that allows us to gparted, but I am not very optimistic about it

This is a picture of the tunnel exit at the Nord Station of the FGC, in Terrassa, Spain. The platform of this station can be seen in this old video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5V5HRy3xN9c. The FGC operates light rail lines in Catalonia (Spain), and this particular line runs from Barcelona city to Terrassa. The trains travel through both open countryside and tunnels

You're absolutely right, official version doesn't exist. The closest thing would be this: https://github.com/abraunegg/onedrive/ My brain was confused with Mega's excellent client. SORRY

I bought it in: https://www.thecalculatorstore.com/epages/eb9376.mobile/en_US/?ObjectPath=/Shops/eb9376/Products/HP15c_Enhanced
With the flash service that includes the pack you have a custom firmware that allows you to choose, with the keys g+enter+on+4, between the firmware of 15, an improved version 15.2 or that of 16c (as seen in the photo)
Another option would be to buy this fantastic modern clone:

There are countless things that can’t be done without a car, even when you are a certain age or care for older family members. The reasoning of living without a car in property, in my humble opinion, is only valid at a certain time in life
