My laptop has become so slow Its starting to piss me off.
I can't even watch a 10 minute video without it lagging or the sound breaking at least one time during it.
I also always use my laptop at work I prefer it to the pc's we have there because at least on my laptop I can still visit this forum but the program we use for work freezes at least twice a day and I have to save my work a lot in fear of losing it if it crashes.

The thing that pisses me off the most is the sound. It glitches a lot and no matter how many times I click the volume down or mute button I get ear raped by the sound and it sometimes takes 2 minutes for it to stop and no button I press does anything, it won't even turn off if I click the power button.

If I wasn't a poor homelesscel I could easily get a new one but I can't afford it since I really need to safe for a stable place. I have been looking into people who rent a room but don't fully trust it btw I don't know, thoughts?

Brutal. I fear mine might soon.

Maybe they'll have functional computers at a nearby library

They do but it requires a membership. Which may be worth it if it means getting to do my work without slamming my desk.

How did you become homeless in Dutchland?

When I was 13 years old I got taken away from my home because my parents were drug addicts. I lived in a youth centre until I was 18. After that its been hard to find a stable home.

Terrible. It felt more like I was being punished the helped. The caretakers treated us like problematic children, when I was 14 I got moved to a stricter centre after getting into too many arguments which was even worse, barely any freedom and too many rules.
