My Acer is a gaming laptop. It's hardware is powerful enough to handle most RPG style games. I usually use my mobile device for Answermug. Otherwise, you'll find me using my laptop for either DayZ or the Elder Scrolls Online!
But apart from that.. I do my assignments, I write zillions of emails to my daughter's school and they write even more zillions to me that I read....I look now and then at facebook, I reply to messages from friends on yahoo, skype etc. and I research stuff.. I listen to music, I read books, and I listen to audio books.
Sounds as though it keeps you pretty busy. I've tried reading books on the laptop but I have some eye trouble and find they work better on an eReader or even on my phone. Audio books definitely go better on the phone so I can listen as I'm doing other things.
Have you run across Susan Erickson reading audio books? She doesn't just read them, she performs them. It's hard to believe that one woman could create so many voices.
Watch youtube, other Q&A sites, browse news sites... truthfully, my online activity is just as boring as my real life activities lol.. im a boring person with no hobbies and interests.
I haven't tried any other Q&A sites (apart from Ask, which closed and Blurtit, which might as well). This one feels pretty good to me. Apart from that you and I seem to do similar things on line.
You're certainly getting your money's worth. It's a lot easier to write on a computer than by hand. Back in the day that cut-and-paste was a real drag.
I'd say most of what I've written falls under the "psychological thriller" category. The novel that I've finished is of the mystery/thriller type about two teenagers who go missing in a small town.
I hang out at several Q&A sites where the teenyboppers bitch whine because they don't like my answers, and I have a couple of the fondest games I'm of.

I'll be interested to see how that 'b' word goes. I used it last week in exactly the same context, and was advised that it had been deleted because "swearing is not permitted on this site".
Bit teenyboppers enjoying their ah, whining. It's what they do best.
One of the other things I do is search home exchange websites for interesting travel opportunities. This July and August we are going to Stockholm, Oslo and Copenhagen all on home exchanges. It takes a lot of searching and communicating with prospective partners to coordinate a trip like that.
