    I don’t use Plasma, but in Mint Xfce, you click:

    • the whisker menu (aka Start),
    • System Information,
    • Copy,

    which includes all this and USB and Repos sections.

    If your mouse/touchpad is broken, then doing it with a keyboard only may be a bit tricky for a newbie, because you have the Shift+Tab to get to the Copy button:

    • Super (aka the Windows key),
    • arrow down to System Information,
    • Enter,
    • Shift+Tab 4 times,
    • Enter.

    While CLI is superior in many ways, sometimes even for newbies, I’ve found that for them GUIs are usually much easier and safer. I recently struggled to get someone to type spaces in the correct places in a terminal, over the phone.
