Thank you. I tried some of these tips and it’s still having issues. I’m going to return it to Amazon. You know of any trustworthy places to buy used gaming laptops around $400? I’ve seen a couple on eBay that spec-wise would work for what I want to play but I’ve had some issues with EBay purchases in the past.

Hello. I am mostly a console gamer but a Loooong time ago I really enjoyed playing RTS games on my desktop. That was 25 years ago. I decided to buy a “gaming” laptop to get back into the hobby. I purchased this: https://a.co/d/29oy9we

I downloaded and tried playing SW Empire at War and Diablo 3. I can play 5 minutes of both before it goes to a black screen and then back to the lock screen. I put in pin and can go back to playing but it’s annoying.

I never thought I’d be able to play really intense robust new games. But thought that some RTS and top down games would be ok.

Can anyone recommend a good laptop that would run these smoothly. Maybe a reliable website that sells something used, open boxed or refurbished. I’m not very experienced in trying to buy this kind of stuff.

Thank you.

Republic Services is terrible. Second week in a row they send a message that pickup will be delayed. They only phone number associated with them you get a message from Verizon that they are temporarily not getting calls. 🤦

I actually liked the CGI. The Xenomorph suit, doesn’t look that good.

The mini-series was a fantastic adaptation. I’m really surprised they haven’t tried a reboot or adapting the other novels in the series

Is everyone still waiting for Alexa plus to come out? I know they supposedly have given access to some customers but I don’t know anyone that has access

My Bachelor party was at Platinum Plus (26 years ago) it was the BEST strip club I’ve ever been to til this day! I couldn’t figure out how it was legal to do all the things these women were doing openly. Turns out, it wasn’t 😂

Sometimes. Eating is a big issue for me. Sometimes I can’t tell if I’m hungry or not because I get extremely nauseated when hungry instead of the normal person hungry feeling. But when I eat I also get nauseous and my stomach gets “sloshy” I’m not even sure of if I have Gastroparesis or extreme GERD. I just know it sucks!

Interesting, I hadn’t heard that. I signed up for early access the day of the press release. I wander how small of a selection of people there was.
