I spent about 10 years working in IT and HP won the worst laptop in the world every year. They used to be designed to fail in about 1 to 2 years, depending on the warranty. That was about 10 years ago, but they were such shit back then that I will never buy a HP anything.

Lenovo and Asus used to be rock solid, probably still are.

I've been doing this for decades. I just get bored easily. But every now and then I find a game that works for me and I spend 1000s of hours playing it. At this point I probably have a 1000+ games and 70% of them I played 2 to 4 hours..

Years ago when I worked in IT, HP were the worst computers ever made. Maybe consider looking at Asus or Lenovo. It's been a while so maybe HP isn't as completely worthless as they were before, but I still don't trust them

I live where there's 1 isp and 10 mobile/satellite providers

Good luck.
Every few months I'll fire it up and the results are the same. Lag, fps stuttering and eventually if I get my ship going it will crash. If you're not rocking a 3060 or better, it's not really playable.

It's from season 2 of the IT crowd iirc

I guess I'm playing different games because I've been on Steam like 14 years and have only seen a handful of issues, all reported and banned.

Well my coworker is considering a PS5, but is leaning towards a more powerful prebuilt gaming pc for about $100 more.

Working at a call center and we had bonuses for people that could book the most hotel rooms (hotels.com). This one lady suddenly started winning all the bonuses day after day. This went on for almost 2 weeks. Then the FBI showed up. Turned out she was just stealing people's CC numbers and booking them hotel rooms without them knowing.

I assume this was the last American election.
