At least you did post an excellent meme because of the painful, terrible event.

That’s why you buy a thinkpad - mine dropped several times down. Just a bit clippedy dew and a restart and everything is fine, again.

Or in my case, my Thinkpad T490 is absolutely brain dead and shuts itself down / crashes during idle sleep mode every time.

Similarly, my Yoga C930 battery drained in 2 days while powered off and fingerprint scanner stops working after waking from sleep.

Lenovo used to be good…

Let’s hope it’s a framework laptop and you can just buy replacement parts.

What’s the context of the original picture? That guy seems like he isn’t having a great time.

“Ivan the Terrible and his son Ivan”

“It depicts the grief-stricken Russian tsar Ivan the Terrible cradling his dying son, the Tsarevich Ivan Ivanovich, shortly after the elder Ivan had dealt a fatal blow to his son’s head in a fit of anger. The painting portrays the anguish and remorse on the face of the elder Ivan and the gentleness of the dying Tsarevich, forgiving his father with his tears.”

It’s one of my favorite paintings

It’s really hard to see in this image, but they’re definitely there in higher definition pictures

A lot of higher end credit cards also include protection against this kind of thing as well.
