I'd figured that - it's all glued to the screen, so any attempt to open it for repair is likely to break it, which is going to be silly money to replace.
So all I need now is a win 10 touch screen tablet / lappie that doesn't cost more than most of the cars I've bought over the years... I'd go for a Surface Go 2, but they want silly money for the keyboard, and again for the pen... I think Ms has been taking lessons from BMW and Mercedes.

Ouch, welcome to the era of disposables - I understand it is close to impossible to fight programmed obsolescence, but something must be done to avoid wasting so much electronic devices...

I have as personal a Samsung Notebook 9. Not cheap but awesome to use. The Keyboard I like. Works very well.
At work I have the Dell foldable thingy. IT works pretty darn well. But I don't like the keyboard as much. They put the power key where the delete key should be. I end up powering off when I hit it alot.

It's not much of a problem as long as they only knock on the door. Things get interesting when they knock in the door and try to drag you out of the house.
Even the Klingons know that only fools fight in a burning house, but in Texas they never heard of that. There it's a tradition to defend your house to the bitter end, especially when the firemen seem to come from Mexico.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Don't they have to pay for any replacement walls that are needed?

Guess I'm not "people", then.
Sure, I've gone to an online diary, but it's shared among exactly 3 devices... ALL MINE.

I think the intent of writing has also change a bit.
Earlier it was keeping things way personal - whatever the case.
Now, most of the people don't hesitate sharing about their personal life socially.
On tech side, Handful write blogs/articles about what they learn or what to share but you get very few readers.

There's a video of him playing ice hockey with pros and being allowed to score a goal. At least he skates as well or better than me, which is to say not that well. Later, he's skating along the boards, doesn't notice the carpet rolled out onto the ice, and does a face plant.

From The Telegraph today:
Quote: Murky weather, heavy balls and slower French Open conditions leave Rafael Nadal downbeat
So that's why he wears those tight shorts.

But they must be too tight, because he's constantly picking his butt, probably because it's eating them.

... that there are no canaries in the Canary Islands?
The same applies to the Virgin Islands as well – there are no canaries there either.
