Does your laptop have an SD card slot? Maybe you could do a backup that way?
Once you get your backup sorted I would just do a fresh install of 22.1 Xia. You'll be fine with that older hardware. I don't think the new stuff from 20.3 to 22.1 would make you notice a severe difference. If you have 4 GB of RAM that's your limiter, but I'd have said the same thing when 20.3 came out.
Every printer I can find is either formatted for A4/USA Letter, or little photo printers that probably require proprietary software which I doubt would work with regular text. I know some of those even require proprietary photo paper modules, which is why I gave up and never bought one.
I had a Canon ip100 years ago, I can recommend it and they still make a newer one, but it looks waaay bigger than your target size. Good luck
One option is to make a second user in Mint, the OS level. This would isolate the Firefox settings for each username from each other. But this would also create separate home folders, so if you're regularly using the same files in your personal stuff and college stuff I could see that being annoying.
Second option is to install a second browser, and just use that browser for your college account. Personal logins in Firefox, and only the college account in Chrome or whatever.
Every year I enjoy the hell out of Left 4 Dead 2 around Halloween. If you guys have never played it, oh you're in for a fun time. Super cheap and runs on a potato at this point if your Xbox brother can find a computer.

Honestly, the apple TV is the least spammy by a long shot. I also hear great things about the Nvidia shield, but it is pretty ancient by now. Or use a computer, but of course that's got its own annoyances. Of course these are all the most expensive options, apparently for a reason.
They rarely get hurricane direct hits, but deal with the remnants of major hurricanes a lot. Not many homes are storm proofed like you'd see in Florida though. Clearly their city storm sewer infrastructures are not equipped to deal with the combination of a high annual rainfall followed by a deluge like this.
Edit: I want to clarify that Eastern NC is more prepared than out west, the eastern half sees stronger hurricane remnants more often than out west, where they still get them but they're weaker from the mountains. Not this time, apparently.
It is public and (relatively) common knowledge that an Abrams tank can fire accurately at speed over rough terrain by postponing the firing of a shell by just a fraction of a second until the gyroscopes and computers determine that tank is "floating" at the apex of a bump.
That tech has existed since the 1980's.
The implementation shown in this gif may be noncredible, but the concept most certainly belongs in the other place.
And they get some "bedroom community" money from people working in and around Boston that don't want to live in Mass. Not an unreasonable commute down i93 or i95, especially if your job is in the north burbs.
Pretty sure none of that applies in North Dakota. Maybe there's folks working in Fargo or Grand Forks that prefer Minnesota? But it's not many.
