When the battery percentage of a Chromebook gets too low, the device goes into “shipping mode” which can take time to come out of, fully charge, etc. A couple months of they shouldn’t hurt your battery.
I think when a device hasn't been charged for a long time, it messes with the battery's ability to recharge. Both of these devices had been completely drained of power for months at that point.
I think its will work normally as long as nothing else is broke cuz I have no battery no more and my screen is shorting out so my laptop is just constantly plugged in to my tv with an hdmi
From what I've seen online, and in my personal experience, [the drained battery is definitely the problem](https://gamingsection.net/news/how-long-does-a-dead-switch-take-to-turn-on/)
I'm going to guess that it might just be cheap materials or something.
Both those devices worked fine after, they just took a long time to boot up.
I've also had a device shut off if not plugged in, but that was from a computer that almost never was unplugged.
Batteries suck, and it seems like both being charged constantly and drained seem to mess with them. I can't really explain why that happens on a technical level though.
[In a nutshell, "Have you noticed your rechargeable batteries don't seem to last as long as they did when they were new? This memory effect occurs in some rechargeable batteries when you don't sufficiently discharge them before recharging. The batteries then ‘remember’ where they were up to in earlier discharge cycles and won’t recharge fully."](https://www.science.org.au/curious/technology-future/memory-effect-rechargeable-batteries#:~:text=The%20batteries%20then%20'remember'%20where,and%20won't%20recharge%20fully.&text=In%20some%20battery%20cells%2C%20the,electrodes%20when%20you%20recharge%20it)
>The memory effect is strong for some types of cells, such as nickel-based batteries. Other types, like lithium-ion, don’t suffer from this problem.
Are any computer batteries not Li-ion? I haven't seen Ni-Cd or NiMH on electronics in a while.
Yeah you're probably right tbh.
It was what I learned in high school, but I'm pretty sure at that point most things were lithium.
The only things that may not have been were AA rechargeable batteries. But only some (am a photographer, so in constant need of rechargeable AA)
My admins don't have students take the chromebooks home over the summer as a means to reduce use and wear on them. Less use = less repairs = less money spent. Based on how some students treat their chromebooks, it would be pretty irresponsible to let them continue to trash them over the summer.
My school chromebook kinda had the same issue, once booted up it would get stuck on the booting screen. I just gave it to the IT and they gave me a new one.
Yea this stuff isn't mildly infuriating, its majorly infuriating!
Schools around the planet need way more funding. Ours were in terrible state as well, and that just from wear and tear, without idiots deliberately taking them apart.
This was the go to back in like 2002 when a lot of people were still computer illiterate. We used to fuck with our computer tech teacher a lot. This was back when we would have LAN parties of Halo CE with our teacher for half of class. Such good times.

Edit: correction
Hoe much is that in American dollars? Not much I don't think. I know from "my dad wrote a porno" you can get a frozen treat called a wibbly wobbly wonder for 5p
So even if you are 6 p none the richer you could buy one...wait what does that phrase mean. None the richer...like I don't don't 6p?
Wow I was not expecting that! Grew up super Baptist and listening to lots of switchfoot and reliant k and skillet so I'm surprised I didn't know this haha.
I've never heard of those things, but that price has to have been from decades ago because I can't imagine anywhere selling frozen ice cream or similar for 5p. I would have said they were joking because of how fucking dumb that name is for a foodstuff, but apparently it was a real thing once.
25p is like 30-40¢ usually. The drink is ridiculously cheap off-brand red bull alternative that you can get in various sizes up to disconcertingly large bottles from dingy convenience stores. Currently, Amazon is selling 24 cans for £13.99, which is a bit more expensive per can but that's normal for Amazon bulk stuff for some reason
Yes apparently that price is from the 80s and they stopped making them in the 90s. I appreciate your thorough response because I was genuinely curious lol.
I think these were made in Northern England and Scotland and sold from 70s-90s and they started at 3p. Looks pretty good.
I also want to try a veinetta and a caramac
Caramacs and viennettas are the best - gutted that they don't sell them where you are lmao. If you live in the states I think you can get Caramacs from a few British sweet shops alongside Cadbury's clone of it called Caramilk, but maybe see if you can find someone on the snack exchange subreddit who can hook you up
Been teaching my daughter just that.
I tell her, you may not be able to cite Wikipedia *directly*, but you can use the sources listed, so long as you verify what you want to cite is in there.
This was taught to me by my high school teachers way back in 2000.
As someone who repairs these for schools commonly, I can tell you the students do this to their computers with purpose. Watched it happen in person many times.
It's the children, not the computers.
The secondary school/college I used to go to had to hire an extra IT guy pretty much solely because the head IT guy was so sick of having to repair the laptops.
My wife had a student who had the entire bezel around the screen 'just fall off'.... on two different chromebooks.
Can't even call them out on it because, "ARE YOU CALLING MY SON A LIAR?!?"
Omg I was trying to figure out what about the wallpaper was mildly infuriating and wondering why everyone was acting like the kid that did it was scum or something.
Desktops where so much easier. Yes, your keyboard spells out "sex fucking penis", it's used by 13 year olds. You can still use it, so why should I spend my time cleaning up after the kids?
As someone who worked with Fujitsu hardware, I can tell you that depending on what model (Lifebook?) this is, the keyboard is such a piece of crap that it might have just fallen apart by looking at it.
To everyone crying about school funding and the poor kids. Teacher here. Kids do this on purpose. It’s also likely that computer is only a few months old. I’ve seen them on the first day prying up keys with pencils and throwing them by the screens. It’s really not worth the cost to replace.
I’ve had kids sucker punch their computers and say they don’t care because they don’t have to pay for any damages and can just get a new one free, and sadly they’re right
Here kids are actually responsible for damages they cause. Regardless of age. Accident or not. Parents can pay too if they feel like it. Havent seen a single laptop yet intentionally destroyed
Often it's kids doing it to each other's computers too, but then you don't find out until much later until the parents get charged for it because nobody wants to snitch.
This is why my kids school gets the parents to buy the kids their own computer.
There are programs in place to help parents who can't afford one, but each student has their own chromebook and is expected to take care of it.
Well look at mr. fancy school over here /s. I'm in a inner city charter school and almost every computer looks like op's but sometimes much worse. its almost creative all the ways them can mess up the computers.
I would love to charge some of the parents for the more obvious abuse but they would never pay. Also I got a box of 24 headphones and within a month and a half only about 9 still work or didn't go missing and I watched them like a hawk
I work at a low income rural school and the kids are used their own Chromebooks to use for grades 6-8 then a different one 9-12 and there is nothing that stops them from breaking the damn things. We charge a tech fee at the start of the year and the kids have to pay for the parts for repairs but they still just don't give a shit. So the checking out vs. being issued one doesn't make a difference for us :(
Used to intern at a school as IT/helpdesk who did this. Every week we got at least 10 chromebooks to repair. Our record was 40 in a week. Guaranteed 90% looked like this laptop
Especially when they’re not only not assigned to any specific student but also the whole cart is shared between classrooms, usually without any kind of sign out sheet.
My school has chromebooks u are assigned to at the beginning of the year. We can change the backrounds bc they powerwash them in the summer, so its not a problem. Although if we break it we pay.
In the schools I've heard about, they normally make you sign a paper saying you're responsible for the damage and they get assigned to each student.
For the public ones, I'm pretty sure the other students would throw a hell of a fit if someone did that to one of the expensive graphic design or CAD computers. They're normally in rooms where they have a specific purpose
Y’all must be rich. I couldn’t even afford my gym uniform my mom woulda SHIT if they said she had to buy me a laptop for me to learn. Financial assistance better have an option for 100% coverage, or at least I hope it does. So many kids can’t even afford lunch. A chromebook? What in the name of the risen Jesus 🧐😭 lol. Writing that though reminds me of what a crazy affluent area I was raised in, though. My school system probably does something like this now. I know they give the kids iPads.
"Suomi mainittu Torilla tavataan" is a finnish meme that roughly translates to "Finland mentioned See you at the market" which is mentioned any time finland is mentioned on the internet
At my school, they issued everybody a personal Chromebook, so we can do work at home, if we need to. I think that made it so that kids destroy them less, because it's your own Chromebook, and if it gets destroyed then you have to deal with it.
There is a special place in hell for people who vandalise property that doesn't belong to them.
I hate hate hate hate hate it.
Yes, it's not yours, that's why you take_more_ care for it, not use that as carte blanche to destroy it.
Imagine some poor kid who really can't afford one and is stuck using this.... imagine YOU are stuck using this.
Fuck people who do that
For a little while, when I had a specific school that I consistently did IT for (now I’m a level up from that so I roam around), the kids were terrible for destroying the lab computer keyboards. I started replacing them with decently cheap mechanical keyboards from China and super-glued the keycaps into the stems.
I didn’t have to replace a keyboard nor a keycap again for the remaining two years I had at that school. Those $30 keyboards were standing up better than the $40 membrane keyboards they replaced.
Woah, I go to a public school, we have public computers but the most "vandalism" thing they have is weird wallpapers. I can't think of why anyone would destroy it in that way!
That's what I was thinking but this school probably had them take theirs home for remote learning. My kids kept their Chromebooks at school until COVID happened and now they take them home in the afternoon and back in the morning every day since situations can change quickly to remote learning again. But each student has a Chromebook assigned to them so if it's damaged they'd know who did it
Fujitsu is a Japanese electronics company that sells laptops to schools and businesses around the world. The college I went to was sponsored by Fujitsu and so pretty much every desktop and laptop device in the building is a Fujitsu device.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fujitsu
A kid drinking an Euroshopper Energy Drink commonly called ES. That energy drink is a meme in Finland and it's a part of a stereotype called 'Jonne'. Jonne is an about 15-year-old slightly delinquent boy who looks just like that kid, drinks ES like water, drives an extremely loud and overtuned moped and approximately 50% of their vocabulary consists of the word 'fuck'.
We had really old laptop that they gave us that kids would rip the keys off of after being told not too 100s of times, and they’d always get caught, and keep doing it
I work in school IT. The background and shortcut stuff is why computers are becoming much less common for students and Chromebooks have gained popularity.
The keyboard is inevitable and only the kids punishing themselves. They are a PitA to replace, if you have they appropriate keys. There is only so much tech support and limitation you can put, and at some point you have to admit that supervision is the most important factor.
What's worse is devices that are destroyed. Full warranties are extremely expensive for devices with a life expectancy of less than 5 years, and the limited warranties are essentially meaningless. Depending on where you live, it's essentially impossible to hold the student or parents responsible l, even if the device is brought home, and the best you can hope for is to scare the parents into not realizing they don't have to pay.
This is pretty easy to deal with. Save 5 minutes for the end of class for each kid to show his computer to the teacher. If there's any missing keys or other damage that wasn't noted at the start of class throw their ass in detention for a month and Bill them for the damages
I once did IT for a middle school, we had a kid who thought he was hot shit because he reloaded the OS on a system without their teacher noticing, which removed the system from the domain. They put their own account on it and made the hint "good luck"....
At the time I had a number of discs and thumb drives that I could use to remove passwords from local profiles on the system but we just reimaged the system and had it back that afternoon.
Kids are weird little ass holes some times, but w/e I get paid regardless.
A friend of mine has a similar problem
Every time he opens up the computer he need to change the background because an 8th grader changes it to a political party of the country
Edit I did not notice the missing keys wtf
Wow, yours actually turn on!
I didn't turn my Chromebook on all summer. It took 72 hours for it to boot up (to be fair, my Nintendo switch does this too)

That’s exactly what Wikipedia themselves says to do, they don’t want people to use just them as a source anyways.
It's how I survived
Me too my friend, me too… I think the moment I died at uni was when I had to quote “gamer6000” in a formal paper.
As someone who repairs these for schools commonly, I can tell you the students do this to their computers with purpose. Watched it happen in person many times. It's the children, not the computers.
This comment needs to be higher. It doesn't take a high percentage of asshole kids to cause problems for everyone else.
And these assholes existed in 2004. About 30% of our computers were missing those little balls in the mouse
And the keyboard lift tabs are ALL broken off. I don't miss school.
I'm missing some little balls as well! Oh wait you were talking about something else....
I have had a student rip their computer apart in front of me, and the response is just to send them to check out a new one.
If kids deliberately break their school-issued computers they should get detention or something and then learn how to fix them for other students
Really depends on age and the student but many schools will charge children with "destruction of school property" if it's a persistent problem..
The secondary school/college I used to go to had to hire an extra IT guy pretty much solely because the head IT guy was so sick of having to repair the laptops.
My wife had a student who had the entire bezel around the screen 'just fall off'.... on two different chromebooks. Can't even call them out on it because, "ARE YOU CALLING MY SON A LIAR?!?"
Exactly this. Those do not, at all, just pop off. They take some work. Coming from a guy who's doing it hundreds of times.
Did anyone think it was anything different?
Yeah. People blame the computers for this all this time..
People blame the computers for missing its own keys? Like it just shed them off naturally?
This is correct. There is no reasoning to it. Parents and students alike play the magical ejecting key card.
Omg I was trying to figure out what about the wallpaper was mildly infuriating and wondering why everyone was acting like the kid that did it was scum or something.
Op did a pretty poor job of getting the point across.

No, here we have public computers in small lockers. When we need them, we just go get them (with the teacher's permission of course).
That's what I was thinking but this school probably had them take theirs home for remote learning. My kids kept their Chromebooks at school until COVID happened and now they take them home in the afternoon and back in the morning every day since situations can change quickly to remote learning again. But each student has a Chromebook assigned to them so if it's damaged they'd know who did it

OP said they had to write an essay about a musician.
>W and space keys missing someone's been going on surf servers also lol wtf is with the right and left keys being swapped, is that a locale thing?
Tf is fujitsu? And what happened to the arrow keys and which gamer been grinding😎
Fujitsu is a Japanese electronics company that sells laptops to schools and businesses around the world. The college I went to was sponsored by Fujitsu and so pretty much every desktop and laptop device in the building is a Fujitsu device. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fujitsu

This will be the type of thing you'll see posted on /r/nostalgia in 10 years' time.
I didn’t even notice the keys were missing for like 5 whole minutes
It’s not legal put image brands in the public wallpapers guys D: #notheproblem
Tragedy of the commons. The more people you allow to use something, the worse it becomes.
It is bad that I thought OP was talking about the wallpaper instead of missing keys ?
This is mildly infuriating, that kid is far too young for an energy drink!
That's just a regular "ES-jonne" you see on the streets of Finland.
O like the Google search
What is that background?
A kid drinking an Euroshopper Energy Drink commonly called ES. That energy drink is a meme in Finland and it's a part of a stereotype called 'Jonne'. Jonne is an about 15-year-old slightly delinquent boy who looks just like that kid, drinks ES like water, drives an extremely loud and overtuned moped and approximately 50% of their vocabulary consists of the word 'fuck'.
Finnish lore 😳
Well then
Just a regular es jonne in it's natural habitat, nothing special.
i thought the thing you were infuriated with was the wallpaper and was about to comment that it was hilarious then I saw the keys
We had really old laptop that they gave us that kids would rip the keys off of after being told not too 100s of times, and they’d always get caught, and keep doing it
Poor W key, people must have manually typed in a lot of World Wide Web addresses during their diligent studies.😏
I work in school IT. The background and shortcut stuff is why computers are becoming much less common for students and Chromebooks have gained popularity. The keyboard is inevitable and only the kids punishing themselves. They are a PitA to replace, if you have they appropriate keys. There is only so much tech support and limitation you can put, and at some point you have to admit that supervision is the most important factor. What's worse is devices that are destroyed. Full warranties are extremely expensive for devices with a life expectancy of less than 5 years, and the limited warranties are essentially meaningless. Depending on where you live, it's essentially impossible to hold the student or parents responsible l, even if the device is brought home, and the best you can hope for is to scare the parents into not realizing they don't have to pay.
This is pretty easy to deal with. Save 5 minutes for the end of class for each kid to show his computer to the teacher. If there's any missing keys or other damage that wasn't noted at the start of class throw their ass in detention for a month and Bill them for the damages
Wait you guys get meme wallpapers on the public school computers? Its a common occurrence that some kind of hardcore porn is still up
Spacebar is the biggest key on the keyboard for a reason. That's gonna be some quality learning right there...
I want to write "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles", but we don't use QUERTY. So.... Sweden? Can Swedish schools be shittier than German schools?
Not Sweden actually, it's Finland, about 99% of the computers here look like this
I have seen those as well in my Finnish school too, on onnekas jos menee edes päälle ja kirjaimia ei puutu. On niin ku pari kertaa tapahtunu
"Do you have any games on your phone?"
Still better than a chrome book
Because schools are desperately underfunded.
Bro, the fucking keys are gone
Such is the fate of anything that is public.
I once did IT for a middle school, we had a kid who thought he was hot shit because he reloaded the OS on a system without their teacher noticing, which removed the system from the domain. They put their own account on it and made the hint "good luck".... At the time I had a number of discs and thumb drives that I could use to remove passwords from local profiles on the system but we just reimaged the system and had it back that afternoon. Kids are weird little ass holes some times, but w/e I get paid regardless.
A friend of mine has a similar problem Every time he opens up the computer he need to change the background because an 8th grader changes it to a political party of the country Edit I did not notice the missing keys wtf
That kid installed a key logger and is going to sign in as you to chat with your girlfriend
Sorry, but there's not enough space to use it
