PART 1
While
sweeping up dust bunnies from the kitchen floor, I found a tiny screw. I have
posted a photograph of the screw along with a pen for size reference. Normally,
such a screw would baffle me. "Where," I would wonder, "did that
come from?"
PART
2
If
all goes well, FedEx will deliver a new laptop computer to my doorstep today.
The new machine has a gigabyte of storage and is (for better or worse)
manufactured to cozy up with artificial intelligence (AI).
My
old laptop has become touchy. If, while working on a document, my palm
inadvertently presses down on the left side of the machine near the touchpad,
my cursor flies off and lands somewhere else on my document. The shell of my
machine has developed a crack near one of the hinges for the screen, and it is
literally falling apart.
PART
3
The
screw on my floor? You guessed it. My computer is unraveling wholesale.
