Title:
  repeated 'Problem in chrome' pop-up messages every 3m

Status in whoopsie package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm filing this bug against chromium-browser, but it might be better
  against whoopsie?

  I'm getting two popups (which steal my focus!) every three minutes
  with the text:

  ```
  Problem in chrome
  Sorry, the program "chrome" closed unexpectedly

  Your computer does not have enough free memory to automatically analyze the problem and send a report to the developers.
  ```

  This happens with google-chrome-stable and chromium-browser (which I
  just installed via apt).

  The popup happens with a single blank tab open.

  Chrome/Chromium doesn't seem to be affected by the crash. Everything
  seems to continue working fine.

  This issue started this morning, I'm attaching my dpkg.log from last
  night (google-chrome-stable)

  
  Description:	Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS
  Release:	24.04

  I have 32G system RAM and I have closed all other programs. It still
  shows the same error message.
