There will be a more comprehensive update tomorrow

My very hardworking desktop computer has decided it no longer likes me after nearly 9 years of loyal service. It's too old to upgrade to Windows 11 and today every application on it keeps crashing, including my web browsers, which does not bode well for the future. It looks like I may have to bite the bullet and spend money on a new desktop, and since several places still have extended Boxing Day sales, it seems like now would be the more logical time to proceed.

*sigh*

Why does everything have to cost so much money?
