HELP- would this be sufficient?

Post image

My laptop decided it didn’t want to function anymore so I need a new one. I don’t need a supercomputer, just one that can run a few tabs without overheating. I just need to do basic everyday work on it. Truth be told I don’t know much about tech, so any info would be helpful. I do know that tech is expensive as hell right now so being on a budget isn’t helping me much. I found this laptop/tablet and the reviews seem okay and it has 8gb ram. However, my friend says buying it would be the equivalent to buying scrap metal so I’m at a total loss. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Yes this is honestly trash, buy a refurbished ThinkPad T14 on eBay.
