  • Occasional cleaning in the dishwasher is probably fine, as long as it’s occasional. Dishwasher detergent contains enzymes that eat away at the food on your dishes. Just be sure and do it with a full load of dirty dishes, otherwise those enzymes will start eating away at whatever else is in the dishwasher. 

    It’s why if you read the manual of your dishwasher, it will usually tell you to not rinse your dishes before putting them inside. Those enzymes need something to work on, and if there is no food for them to munch on, they will start munching on your glasses and dishes, dulling their finish. 








  • So it looks like the touchpad problem is a known issue with that particular model. A web search turned up an Arch Linux forum post from 2017 with the same issue. Unfortunately, there was no solution posted.

    Your touchpad shows up as a PS/2 device, right? I have a ThinkPad A475 with a PS/2 trackpad that won’t function at all in Linux unless I add i8042.reset as a GRUB argument.

    Maybe see if that helps?
