It's HP... No hope.

Oh, and it's a tad bent.

[-] iii@mander.xyz 24 points 1 month ago

Install debian it runs on even the lowest resources

[-] odium@programming.dev 12 points 1 month ago

If Debian is too heavy, try puppy Linux for even lower resource usage and because puppies are cute.

Try some WD-40

[-] Kilometers_OBrien@startrek.website 11 points 1 month ago

I've seen Linux fix worse cases.

Ever try mint?

[-] Localhorst86@feddit.org 11 points 1 month ago

Have you tried forcing an unexpected reboot?

[-] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 7 points 1 month ago

The most important part is making sure the computer doesn't see it coming so it's truly unexpected

[-] Railing5132@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

"helloo, I.T." "Have you tried turning it off and back on again?"

[-] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

You’ll need a DeLorean and some plutonium.

I was issued an Elitebook for work. This is truly the best case scenario

[-] frigidaphelion@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

How much force is required to do that to a *laptop? Car accident level?

[-] dch82@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 month ago

not a lot if it doesn't have a metal frame inside

[-] quinkin@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Iron, no steam.

[-] zyratoxx@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago
  • Try to sell it as art

  • Make a shitton of cash

  • Buy a new laptop and still have a shitton of cash

(maybe remove SSDs and HDDs before step 1 if those are still in tact and depending on what kind of information was stored on the device)

[-] And009@reddthat.com 3 points 1 month ago

Genius just paint it

[-] x4740N@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

[-] Coreidan@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Have you tried turning it off and then on again?

[-] ikidd@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

[-] letsgo@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Just wipe it down with a damp cloth (not dripping, just damp). It'll be as good as new.

[-] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

Well, first, you want to get a hammer. Make sure you're comfortable with the weight, you're gonna be doing a lot of swinging.

Next, you'll want this hunk of metal called a dolly.

Now, if you're someone without experience in a body shop, I'd recommend searching "Dolly dent removal methods", watch some tutorials.

If you're familiar already, you know what comes next. Decide if you're going on or off, and beat the shit out of it until the dents come out.

Anger management

[-] thesohoriots@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

A little distilled white vinegar, a lint-free cloth, and some elbow grease.

[-] elucubra@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 month ago

That’s what you get for not upgrading to 11

[-] superkret@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago
