Disable refresh+power for a specific user on a chromebook?
Im just saying this because i was working on a project for 2 hours and some one did the esc refresh power witch wakes the computer think that the operating system is missing and can sometimes lead to corrupted system files (On my 2nd one because of somewone using esc refresh power and corrupted files.) and can also lead to not being to access files from the cloud.But just report it to the admin AKA the principal and it should stop within no time.

Disable refresh+power for a specific user on a chromebook?
My macbook running Arch on an old HDD takes takes 18 seconds to get to login page, whats messed up with your ubuntu xDi just got the Acer R 11 because my old laptop's motherboard brokeMy school ones take me a min of 36 seconds to turn on, log in, and load up my pages. 36+ seconds add up really ******* fastDepends on the model.No they take 1.56 (yep I just tried)Don't Chromebooks take like 3 seconds to boot?but it will still get shutdown which is just a paintell your classmates to stop being jerks?^^
also try periodically saving your work and/or locking the chromebook when you're away from it
At 5 seconds: Chrome logo shows up
At 8 Seconds: Background shows up
at 10 seconds: Password screen is ready
And then my old laptop running ubuntu took leik 3 mins to turn on, I will probably just shut down my laptop after every class and turn it back on
(how would that key code corrupt a file? Wouldnt that just reboot the computer or something making you loose your last saved work?)

Sidenote: do you got an HDD or SSD, replacing an HDD with a 30$ 250GB ssd and putting manjaro would speed that baby up real quick

Also theres Open Office if Libre Office doesnt work on your arch linux for what ever reason and you spend way to long trying to set it up but eventually just secume to the depression and sadness because Libre was all you ever wanted.

Work where someone can't reload your page or turn off your computer. Or switch the off and escape keys (it works better than it sounds, my friend did it and it worked on everyone
) For the reload, it should ask you whether you want to reload or not.

Go to chrome:extensions, open the 3 bars/dots on the top left side, go to keyboard shortcuts, click on literally any box where it tells you to put in a shortcut, and press ctrl+shift+q. you've just successfully overwritten and disabled ctr-shift-q-q. the pwer+refresh, though, i still dont know

You can't do it for refresh+power, it will hard reset your computer. I have used that technique to disable ctrl+shift+Q.

Wedge a little piece of cardboard under the side of the key while in use.
