Just bought a laptop with Mint, shows errors on startup (lemmy.world)

So I just bought this refurbished laptop with Mint pre-installed, and it's showing these error messages when booting. Boots just fine afterwards and seems to work normally. Is this normal? Should I get my money back, or should I do a fresh install?

I would suggest a fresh install, regardless.

I did buy this as a hobby project to learn Linux, so I might as well.
