Well in my case there is always something hideously broken. For example I had a problem a couple of years back where libreoffice would take 3 minutes to open a sheet when my printer was turned on. Then there’s days where if I close the lid on the laptop I had to pray to all the gods of the disc that it’d wake up again without smiting me in some horrible way. And then there’s the usual face punch where I just want to solve a problem, not solve a whole tree of problems.
I don’t work on anything exceptional really. It’s all simple stuff. But there’s just so many broken things all the time that I had to walk away.
I’m writing this on the only tool I’ve got that doesn’t melt in my hands regularly, an ass end 9th gen ipad paired with a fairly old apple keyboard. It just works. This gives me more time to do things I actually derive value from in my life.
