Honestly it might still just be the SOC failing - when I worked in hardware repair most laptops had separate chips for each and note tech has progressed to have them both on one “system on a chip”.
Sorry bro, I’d say back anything you give a shit about up because she’s probably on the way out. If my experience holds, eventually it’ll artifact like this every boot and you’ll be digging out the hard drives to get at your files.
In your shoes I’d recommend fucking with the drivers and your OS, it’s still possible that it’s the drivers are interacting with the hw wrong and causing the issues, but in reality that’s a long shot. Also run memtest86 overnight one night and see if maybe its the ram?
If it does die and you’re feeling hack-y, the dude who suggested an oven reflow is not wrong. If you manage to figure out getting the motherboard out (make sure no plastic that could melt!!) and put it in the oven at reflow temp, you might revive it.

Does it continue playing sound when it does this? That supports the gpu theory if so.
Also, next time it does this see if plugging an external monitor in displays anything. If it’s the same pattern it’s probably the gpu, if not possibly monitor or cable.

Usually a sign of a dying gpu. Used to work in a laptop repair shop.

Did you use bleach? If it’s a light brown looking spot on black fabric that’s clearly lighter than the surrounding fabric, that’s my guess.

Yep, hoping he’s not stupid enough to do that. However, on the other hand brain worms…
- Comment on Did something about mass produced ice cream change like 10 years ago? 2 months ago:
It still has a bit of gum in it (hard to find without these days) but that talenti stuff in the US appears to be real cream still - honestly that’s the big kicker for me with ice cream, too much gum or any vegetable product just makes it not worth the calories 🤢

TIL - Thank you!
- Comment on Did something about mass produced ice cream change like 10 years ago? 2 months ago:
You aren’t imagining it, they add various types of gum and additives to slow real I’ve cream, and a lot of ice cream is straight up fake - “frozen dairy dessert” is a euphemism for fake ice cream.
Honestly now-a-days one of the few ways those of us in the states are going to protect ourselves is to rely on the ingredients list and familiarize ourselves with what products are actually what they claim they are, and whether they contain anything questionable.
Here’s hoping the brain worm dead bear boy doesn’t gut the FDA as badly as he promises, or companies are going to start adding all sorts of fun stuff to our food.

Yeah this is what I’ve heard as well - aging wheels goes into it a bit in this review of a concept car, kinda neat - it has pedals like a bicycle but the energy they add is a tiny fraction of what the thing needs to move.
