Haha, yep! 🤣 No more excuses this time. Honestly though, I'm just glad my computer didn't blow up when I tried to open up Paint last time. It's a small victory against the dreaded blue-screen of death.

Sounds like you need a new computer. My last one lasted over 5 years and I was happy with that. My new one will hopefully last that long but they don't make them to last these days do they?

Mine's 7 year old, and to be fair, it's working wonderfully still. I'm going to save up for something hugely better next time, though. Most computer parts these days are built to be slim and compact, which is why laptops these days are featherweight compared to their predecessors.

But as a result, they're usually not replaceable, so repairing and maintaining them can be a bitch. Really different from the old days, generally better, but a bit worse, too 🙃
