And I bought a speaker for the TV.

I bought this monitor:

It's not huge because it's meant for right next to my bed. I need to clean the spot for it.

Next I'm going to buy a GBA SP and a Blu-ray player.

I bought a Google Chromebook. I find it annoying.
What's annoying about it?



A Pixel Watch.

I wasn't really planning to, I figured it's one of those things I'd get in another few years when they got better/cheaper. But a couple years ago a friend of mine was upgrading their Fitbit and gave me their old one, and when the strap finally went, and I checked on replacements, I realized even a fairly basic one was close to half the cost of a "real" smart watch, so I went for it. I like it pretty well so far.



What's annoying about it?
It is very touchy so it does things I didn't intend, especially the mouse pad. And the sliders (I don't know what they are called, the things on the edge of the right edge of the screen are hidden, so it is difficult to know where they are if you have used them to scroll down the page. It gets annoying.

Yeah, sorry to hear that, I can see how that would be annoying

My super old laptop HP Pavilion stopped working,
so I've just bought this brand new Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 15.6" + Windows 11:

Here's the monitor I bought in action:

It's a Genesis game using an AV hookup. I tested the HDMI hookup with my computer earlier, and it worked great too. I am stoked with my purchase. Well... aside from the stand being too flimsy to hold up the screen. I'll figure something out. I had an idea to get a mouse for it too since I can connect it to my computer when the computer is closed and have it as a screen except there's no current way to control it, so I want to see if a mouse would work.
