Quoted from Robert Timsah I am probably the only one who uses a Chromebook. Explains everything, really. But, believe me when I say Chromebooks help you to focus and less goes wrong. You really do need to adapt to cloud computing, but that's a feature not a bug.

Something BigTech put out? Oh oh… red flag #1, lol. I don’t really know anything about cloud computing either, rapunzel. However, after the forced inoculations, the nanobots that will arrive with the toxins injected into me will align to plug me wirelessly into the grid; and then I’ll be up to speed… I joke cause I’m an egghead.

Quoted from ajr So my laptop screen went all kablooey...

Yeah, mine too (laptop). I went out and bought a nice Toshiba laptop back in 2012 when I started screenwriting, but one that had a killer ‘Bang & Olufsen’ sound card/system installed to work on a DAW’s (Digital audio workstations) as well; audio rendering chews up more RAM than graphics for no apparent reason. Anyway, that damn thing (touch screen) shit the bed, like… 2 or 3 years later, after the warranty expired of course.

So in a fit of rage I went out and bought a nice gaming PC (I don’t game at all), but I wanted speed and stability, plus it has a solid state drive which is insanely fast versus spin-drives… this system  I’ve had for about 6 or 7 years now and it runs just like the day I brought it home. So definitely money well spent in this case, err… which is usually not the case.

Quoted from ajr What do you use to write, and why?

Final Draft cause it’s easy to use and takes the guesswork out of formatting. Seriously, I can’t even imagine how frustrating it would have been to write and properly format a screenplay on a typewriter back in the day.

I gave up trying to avoid Big Tech. At some point you get sick of fighting the man.
