Permission denied on a folder I copied into my home directory

Copied a project folder from an external drive on Ubuntu and now I can't edit anything inside it, everything says permission denied. ls -l shows root as the owner. What's the right chown / chmod to make it mine without breaking things?

Browser extension for zipForm Plus won't install in Edge

Our office uses zipForm Plus and it wants an extension added to Microsoft Edge. Clicking install just spins and nothing happens. Tried restarting and clearing cache. Do Edge extensions need a setting turned on first?

Do I really need a BIOS update if the laptop works fine?

HP Support Assistant keeps nagging me about a new BIOS version. Laptop runs fine, no issues. The release notes are vague. Is it worth the risk or should I leave it alone?

macbook says not charging while plugged in

Battery icon shows plugged in but not charging, stuck at 79 percent. Is that the battery optimisation doing its thing or a fault? Using the original charger.

can't leave a group text on my android, the option just isn't there

Someone added me to a group chat with about 15 people, a few of them on iPhones. In Google Messages there's no leave button, only mute. Any way out other than muting it forever?

Mouse cursor randomly vanishes in Windows 11

Every so often the pointer just disappears. Mouse still works because I can click things, I just can't see where it is. Moving it hard sometimes brings it back. Happens with two different mice so I don't think it's hardware.
