I cannot understand how some people are living with this. It is unbearable

Simultaneously the worst and funniest thing I've ever seen - got together with my now ex and she opens up her laptop to show me her bank statement. I look over and I see IN REAL TIME all of the English text convert into wingdings.

"No don't change it, its really funny; I like it!!!" I bet, super funny - but it's your friggin' bank account! Who knows what else it's doing besides being a bit silly?

Was she paying you to come over, lol?

Lol no, I don't recall why we needed to look at her account. Probably plotting rent? It was ages ago now.

my partner's mouse's scroll wheel has been broken for years. every time i've tried to get them a new mouse they stop using it after about 2 days and go back to the busted one. why? "idk it was too heavy/didn't fit their small hands/plastic felt weird" etc. deadass i've gone through about 6 or 7. idk what the point of this rambling post is other than people are adaptable to shitty conditions and most straight up don't care that their hardware/software is shitty.
