Oh it works now, but that charger you got is iffy at best and you’ve got probs another hour’s worth of battery before it stops working and you have to go buy a new one.

Lets hope all these updates thrash the SSD and deplete the storage health. That’s how I got to take home my last work laptop

  ahahah a couple years ago a mate’s workplace was decomissoning a site. They said “Take what you want, we’ll ewaste what’s left after this weekend” All the millenial coworkers grabbed maybe a chair, maybe a monitor or two.
  
  Me and said mate (a fellow genXer) rented a truck. And we cleared that fucking joint out, including “broken” laptops and entire comms racks.

    My problem is I want all that stuff but don’t know what to do with it. I have an optiplex in a server cabinet and an RPI knockoff I get stuck with every time I try to do something

    Start playing with home automation. HAOS is free and Ikea have cheap matter devices
