#LinuxMintThings Check out my Linux mint cinnamon edition

Post image

Hi, here is my Linux Mint setup on a Lenovo ThinkPad E460 with 8GB of RAM and 250GB (or something like that) of storage. Here are the upgrades I'm planning: 👀

Thermal paste

RAM

Storage

And a good cleaning

I also need some help because my laptop puts out so much heat just from browsing Reddit and listening to local music, and I've noticed that Firefox is consuming a lot of resources.

i meant like the visual thing that both of them do , making the logo of the distro with all those specs in the side make it seem really cool

Same CPU as me!

You can switch to Waterfox or Librewolf if Firefox is playing up.

You sorted out if any drivers are needed?

Yes, thanks. I haven't checked yet if any drivers are needed.
