I’ve been doing PC hardware for over 25 years. This is likely related to your laptop display - either the cable connecting the panel to the motherboard, the panel itself, or some motherboard component connected to the display output that has failed.

Try pivoting the display back and forth and see if the glitches change in response. If they do, it’s the cable.

Beyond that, you’d need to do some testing to find the hardware component that has gone bad.

FUCK ISRAEL, and FUCK Netanyahu. The descendants of victims of genocide have themselves become perpetrators of genocide.

America should have stopped giving them funding decades ago.

Fuck Netanyahu right in the ass with a 2x4

About a year ago, I trialed both Proton Mail and Tuta mail. Proton mail worked out better for my needs, but YMMV. 

One nice thing about switching providers is that it gives you the opportunity to rid yourself of years of built-up cruft and spam.

I use Ventoy to boot everything but macOS. Those installers need their own partitions on the SSD.

Do yourself a favor and skip the USB drive - they are ridiculously slow compared to a compact external SSD. I found a cheap m.2 enclosure on Amazon and put an old SSD in it and the speed difference is breathtaking.

My SSD has a bunch of Linux distros grouped into folders along with Windows 10 & 11, every macOS from 10.13 to present, along with Rescuezilla, Hiren’s and a few others I can’t remember at the moment.

Rescuezilla was my #1 go-to during my days of distro hopping. Makes it super easy to try out a distro on bare metal instead of a VM.

Israel can fuck right off. Clearly, “never again” doesn’t mean fuck all to the Israeli government who are doing the same shit the Nazis did, only with bombs instead of gas chambers.

Fuck Israel. The US should have stopped giving them money decades ago.

All of that war and they are right back to where they were before we invaded.

Your tax dollars at work.

Why would you continuously record? Just record motion events and you won’t need a card that large at all, plus it will last a lot longer.

I feel like this is a product looking for a market. Why would anyone ever trust that much data to something so fragile and easy to lose?
