did get confirmation from my brother that any crackling from the, uh. adapter to my laptop is due to it not being connected properly, so the solution to that is to double check.

and confirmation that any screen glitches are due to the graphics drivers, so i have to keep those updated and restart if any glitches happen.

Ehhh... depending on what you mean by screen glitches, blaming the driver may be a placebo.

legit i can't get proof because i never have my phone with me while i'm pissing about on my laptop downstairs, and no, i'm not going to go grab some arbitrary posts that are essentially me venting about it.

it gets fixed with a restart.

If it gets fixed with a restart that does push the balance towards it being a driver issue, or at least if it is a hardware issue it's something that the driver can work around. That's why I said "depending".

sorry that i came off as aggressive there.

also, yeah, i'm chalking it up to a driver issue because i can't exactly afford to replace any hardware in this laptop. it hasn't happened for some time -- i'd imagine if it was a hardware issue, it'd happen somewhat consistently.

Ah my old laptop. The hard drive went out, so I got another hard drive, but then the battery went out, but like, I'd already paid for a hard drive so I was like, okay, new battery, and then the charger went out, but I'd already paid for a hard drive and battery, so I was like, okay fine, new charger. And then... the new hard drive went out :')

it's possible to keep a laptop on, uh. on the charger, and remove the battery completely -- it pretty much turns it into a standard computer that can be moved, provided you switch it off first.

though, if you're like me and using a specific brand of universal charger that sometimes has the damn charger come out of the, uh. the connector to the port, then you're a bit screwed unless you figure out a way to have that not happen.

yeah, i get you. i didn't/don't really use my laptop off the charger, mostly because of concerns about battery life.

on my old laptop (windows 7, i3 processor), the battery is starting to go. (i.e: windows 7 actually warning me about it and that there might be random shutoffs which can result in lost data. that's practically the only issue, other than it being a bit slow because of, y'know, a lot of junk stuff i kept on it.) i'm sort of planning to keep that for spare parts, y'know?

also because i'm a bit of a hoarder and it's nice to have something that can be used as a spare.

"Spare parts" is generally not a thing for laptops, unfortunately. Basically everything is built onto the motherboard nowadays and even when it isn't it's not necessarily going to be compatible across different models. You can't necessarily even count on RAM being removable anymore. Mechanical hard drives are about the only part you can trust will be portable. SSDs aren't removable on most laptops.

About the only meaningful exception when it comes to parts is the display panel. Display panels of the same physical size and resolution can sometimes be interchanged.
