1. Open Crosh
Wondering how to use Crosh? You won't find it in the regular list of apps in your Chromebook's app drawer. To open Crosh, you need to press Ctrl + Alt + T, which will launch the terminal window in a new tab.
7. A Better Task Manager

Very few people know that ChromeOS (and the Chrome browser on other operating systems) has its own task manager. It shows you what processes are eating through your CPU and memory. You can find it by opening Chrome and going to More (three vertical dots) > More Tools > Task Manager.

However, even fewer people know that ChromeOS has a secondary task manager hidden in Crosh. You can use it to learn about low-level processes that don't show up in the main task manager app. You can access it by simply typing this cool little Crosh command:

Code: Select all

It’s unclear when, but in the time since release, Google has decided to allow people to download the installer image and write it to a USB using the dd command-line utility on Linux devices.

You can read the date yourself. Given that they've been the worst MS/Windows shills ever, I should give them credit for even writing about ChromeOS Flex.
I was thinking about this after I had posted. The fact that that article's title starts with PSA (Public Service Announcement), cracks me the fuck up.

Also, I find it impossible to believe that I was the first to do that.

Hahaha... that photo of Jim Carrey! I didn't use to like him when I was young but recent years, so many bad actors and movies come out, I have started to appreciate his acting, I think I didn't understand him and his style those years.

Users will be offered a guided setup experience that takes them through the process of installing the Microsoft 365 web app and connecting Microsoft OneDrive to their Chromebook Files app. Files will be moved to Microsoft OneDrive when opening in the Microsoft 365 app.
Keep an eye out for the full launch announcement details in the coming months, and for those in our dev and beta channels, you’ll be able to test the implementation even earlier so please keep an eye out!
I'm sure that this will be a welcome development to many. I hope that alternatives are offered, like opening MS Office files directly in Google Workspace. I hope that extension for editing remains available too, just either let them remove it or install it only if they choose. I also hope that perhaps some development on the extension occurs to improve its performance, particularly with spreadsheets.

I am a bit curious what will happen if your, let's say DOCX file isn't uploaded to your OneDrive and you double-click it... Will it automatically upload it to OneDrive and open it?

I guess you could say it's out of 'beta'?

Google today announced in a blog post that ChromeOS Flex, a version of its Chromebook operating system suitable for most hardware, has moved from early access to general availability. It also said it certified "over 400" devices, including systems from Apple, Dell, and HP, to run the OS smoothly and stably.
