Can't convince mom to use laptop
 

Hello all, I'm having trouble convincing my mom to switch with me and use my laptop and allow me to use the desktop gaming computer I built that she occupies. I need access to this gaming computer as my laptop runs on an intergrated graphics card and cannot run most games(the processor is 2.0ghz dual core and it has 4GB of ram and 500 GB of storage so it should do email and all that fine for her.)


She says she hates laptops because of the screen keyboard and just about everything. I explained to her she could use the same display/keyboard/mouse she currently uses, but she just wont listen. I also explained that the laptop is perfectly fast for lagless email,web browsing and video watching, which is pretty much all she does on the computer. Any way I can convince her to switch? I told her I could move all her files to the laptop and everything would work the exact same and she wont even notice a difference as the same interface devices would be connected to the laptop as the desktop.

Tempted to overclock my laptop's processor/disable fans and overheat it so she'll let me build a new computer, as she won't let me buy a new computer as long as this one works. It's really outdated and cant run any new 3d games T_T

I'd just take it away from her

easy steps:-
1) Sleep in day
2) Wake up in night
3) Play the games
4) Change the password
5) Enjoy!!!

Convince her your gaming computer is broken so she'll have to use the laptop. If your gaming computer isn't a laptop try removing an important wire that keeps it starting up. If it's a laptop say that it overheated or got a virus. She'd have to use the laptop either way. Keep pretending over time and see if she gets used to the laptop.

lie to her.

Buy your own, better computer.

1) Don't overclock a laptop.
2) Why does a laptop have an onscreen keyboard? Hook up a mouse to it(and keyboard, I guess?) and show her that it functions just like a desktop but takes up a lot less space.

no, she hates the small keyboard on laptops for some reason. I told her she'd be using the same keyboard plugged in though.
I tried that btw.
also @twinny she wont let me build one for myself even if I pay for the parts. She sees that my laptop isn't broken and is making me stick with it.

1)show you'r mom this thread.


HEY YOU MOM GIVE HIM BACK HIS DESKTOP

******.

shut up.

******.

why is your mom occupying the gaming computer, you built?
did she buy all the parts? IF thats the case she does have the right to use it.

I honestly don't know what else to suggest, I would say destroying something on purpose is not the answer.

Sounds like your mom is stealing your stuff.
