What I lack in self-confidence I make up for with humor.

Gonna try the whole "self-respect" thing in 2025.
Yes but...gotta be careful with how I say things lol.

Hope you're doing alright though, friend. :)

Oh just like...certain political people maybe not being around much longer.

I'll give this a go later tonight after work!

No I make it there just fine. I turn it on. Computer shows it needs a lot of updates. I "install" the main one, and it says it needs to restart to fully install. When I restart, it says "oh it messed up, we're undoing what we just did."
December 3, 2025 at 7:51 PM
That definitely looks right, yeah.

It was a gift, so I don't know.
December 3, 2025 at 7:43 PM
Also note, I didn't break the factory seal lol I think that just happened over time.

I mean i have the sku but that's about all the sticker has.

So here is what I have on laptop. Ignore the dust.
December 3, 2025 at 7:31 PM
I literally turned it on and tried to install the updates, I didn't even try to do anything else.

The other stuff I'll look up later for sure.

I got it as a gift 2 years ago (2023), it's a laptop.

It uses windows 11. It uses wifi and Bluetooth. I've turned it off and put it away for now. Might just factory reset later tonight.

There's definitely at least one thing that could happen that would improve morale...
December 3, 2025 at 6:57 PM
Like...what went wrong? Doesn't tell me lol.
December 3, 2025 at 6:12 PM
But there's a lot of updates that are failing to install and I don't really understand why.
December 3, 2025 at 6:04 PM
But I also get worried because the last time I had a brand new laptop, someone "fixed" it, but actually ended up making it worse. That was back in like 2012 though.
December 3, 2025 at 6:03 PM
I really just want someone to get it and remove any unnecessary stuff. There's so many things I'm not familiar with lol.

But one thing that is a current annoyance is my keyboard shortcuts don't seem to work (like dimming screen).

I went from never using it in 1 to using it quite a bit in 2! Such a fantastic change.

Can't wait to listen to this one. One year, for Christmas, my grandmother gave me a box that was just full of Goosebumps books. I loved them so much.
