I honestly regret buying my gaming laptop. I barely use it since I don't have space in my room, so I need to attach it to the TV, every time I need to use, move my series X and unplug it... And I need a wired controller. Then, there's always a pesky update, drivers, stuff... When I'm playing on my X I don't have to worry about any of that, is more of a hassle to use (the laptop).

Ngl I basically bought it because I wanted to play Spiderman and other not available games on Xbox but even like that the regret is there.

Amongst several other reasons, I get hot very easily, every little bit helps. Evaporative cooling (ie, sweating) doesn't seem to work well if there's a jungle containing the humidity. Full body, it grows back fast. And long enough to tangle and snag. Painfully.

What do you do about chafing? I prefer having the hair as a cushion even if it does get humid down there

Hasn't been an issue for me, weirdly. Which is weird as my skin is dry AF and I'm fat.
