A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I guess even a chromebook has some sort of offline apps and storage.
ChromeOS is just a regular OS. Without internet, everything continues to work that was designed to work. It's about the same as Windows that way.
However, Chromebooks have planned obsolescence, and most devices lose official OS updates after some number of years, with many having weird hardware that makes it difficult to move to another operating system.
