I added this to the file /etc/resolv.conf and it's working again.

What can I do to fix the problem here?

Well the machine's time is off by a few hours after I power it off for a night. So the time is incorrect right now. This might explain why it suddenly stops when I wake up and reopen it a day after installation. Should I manually set the correct time to fix it?

Firefox's default in-built download manager is hot garbage. It is so much more reliable to download multiple large files at once with a resource-friendly download manager.

I did perform the self-test function, the long version that says it will take 10s of minutes. Some of the errors were displayed with red text before the test. After the self test, it said that my drive passed and all the red errors showed up as "Old age" in black text, every single one.

(This is in the GUI app for smartctl)

It'd be bad if I were working on something and the entire thing just suddenly broke down before I have the time to save and backup 😅

I used the GUI program for SMART and the list of issues got marked as "old age", all of them.

It's the same error, no matter how many times I reinstall. I assume it's a hardware issue

Yeah the important stuff is backed up, but I am still concerned my entire OS will suddenly go kaput. How fucked am I?

I still browse through the political communities occasionally but I hate how their posts absolutely dominate the main page by default.

Now you can thank yourself for making that good decision!
