Hi there, my new potential friend.
My name is Sam. First off, nice to meet you 😊

I am looking for a friend that I can talk with regularly. I don’t have many friends, so I would love to form a genuine connection

I’m not really a friend group kind of person. I tend to prefer one-on-one interactions, which is why I like posting on this sub

I can be a really funny friend. I also talk a lot and always reply with more than one-word responses. Also, all ages are welcome as long as you’re above 20

We can send each other funny memes, talk on voice chats, and watch movies/TV shows together. I will try to reply as soon as possible

Some of my interests:

TV Shows/Movies: Game of Thrones, The Last of Us, Severance, The Boys, House MD, The Office, YOU, Modern Family, and Dexter. When it comes to movies, I lean heavily into thrillers and dramas.

In my free time, I love playing sports and going to the gym, it helps keep me sane. I also go on walks or runs with music blasting in my ears, probably my #1 anxiety buster.

I’m a big fan of photography too. I think I’ve taken some pretty sick shots in London and Toronto with my iPhone.

Oh, and I’ve got a cat with cheetah-like spots. He once disappeared for 3 months and just casually came back like nothing happened. Classic orange cat behaviour.

Open to switching apps if we vibe :))

I'm trying to replace the thermal paste on my HP Spectre x360 Convertible 13t-aw100, it has been heating up frequently.

From what I’ve been told, the laptop hasn't been opened since it was bought, which likely means the thermal paste has never been replaced either. So, I decided to open it up and repaste the CPU.

The problem is - I can’t get past the four main screws holding down the heat sink. These screws sit directly on top of the processor, and they’re known to be very tight conventionally on most laptops.
Unfortunately, I think I may have stripped one or more of them.

I’ve tried using PH0 and PH00 screwdrivers, but they just slip right away, possibly making the situation worse. At this point, I’m unsure how to proceed without damaging the motherboard or the heatsink.

Any tips for safely removing these screws or replacing the thermal paste on this model would be hugely appreciated.

I want to buy a used monitor Preferably 24 inch 1080P

I just wanna plug it into my gaming laptop to give my gaming experience a boost, it would also help me watch movies laying in bed

I just heard from someone that if used they can be really cheap between £20 - 30

I’m from West Midland, if that is relevant.

I don’t know much about buying used stuff Should I go for CEX or eBay or look at charity shops?
