Lost pen, need replacement

It's been less than 2 weeks, I lost it. It must have slipped of the back of the stupid magnetic thing (pro 12 inch) and I think my cats hid it somewhere. I have no clue where to find the fucker and the find my device in settings is telling me there is no information. I lost it at least 5 hours before I realized and I don't know where it could be.

Now, rant aside, does anyone have solid recommendations for an off brand pen? Specifically one that doesn't hit the wallet as hard? I thankfully found one "open box" at bestbuy so it was "only" $70.

Brand new but laggy

I'm not sure if I used the right flair for this, I'm referring to the pro 12 inch, but I'm wondering why it's so laggy and slow. It's the 16 gb of ram and 512 GB of ssd (I think that's the term). I'm not very tech savvy at ALL so any info anyone needs to get a better grasp as to what's happening id be glad to give.

An example is that I can be writing on one note and the writing appears a good 3 seconds after I actually wrote it. Or I'll be trying to maneuver tabs and windows and it's incredibly slow, I don't have a lot of windows open, just 2 with maybe 3-4 tabs each and sometimes it's laggy when I only have one window with 2 tabs open.

Hopefully this made any sense at all, it's currently 1:30 am so I'm a bit all over the place, but thank you for giving your time to read and respond!

Edit: my windows hello also recognizes my face 20% of the time, idk if anyone can help me with that issue ethier

Bluetooth audio help

Hi, I JUST purchased my pro 12 inch today and I've discovered my first issue: audio seems muffled/cloudy. I've tried googling it already but it hasn't been much help unfortunately. If it means anything I occasionally had the same issue with only YouTube on my old device, but here it's (at least) Spotify, YouTube, and Google drive audios

Any help would be appreciated

One of the million

Nope, not one in the million, one of em. HOWEVER, I'd like to think my questions are more unique.

With that being said, I'm wondering if anyone thinks it is super convenient to take handwritten notes on and if so what platform they use to. I'm hoping that I can set it up to have different "folders" for different classes and possibly have sub categories within that, and when writing with your palm on the screen, does that mess it up?

Does anyone consider the time it takes to turn on, sign in, and log in to take a long-ish time (I'm currently using a $150 school issued Chromebook so my standards are low)?

Also is the screen really adjustable like a normal computer? Like, it seems like it wouldn't be but at the same time it seems like it should, I just have trust issues lol.

Edit: am I going to be able to prop in open on my legs if I sit criss cross? Will I have to fenagle it a bit but it's doable?

What is the typing experience like, does it feel off or relatively normal, and are the keys backlight?

Finally, what are some downsides I should be aware of?

I'm currently relatively set on getting the violet 12" with 16 things of ram and 512 things of storage (it's past midnight so please excuse the vagueness)

I get that that's a lot of stuff so I understand if people don't want to answer everything, just an answer to one or two of the questions would be nice. Thank you for reading!

Rain on 7/7

Sooooo, with the rain coming the concert is going to be miserable and no one would want to EVER be in that, right...

So like, if anyone decides that the weather is clearly terrible and they don't want to attend anymore, just let me know if you have any tickets you don't want anymore and I'll gladly sacrifice myself and sit in the bleachers for you 🫡

Edit: what's with the down votes y'all? It's a silly post talking about how it looks like (according to my weather app) it's going to rain and me joking about getting tickets. I'm kinda confused

Wtf Google

I got the charge 6 because it was a cheaper watch with a decent enough hr monitor (if it seemed wrong I would manually take it and it was always close ish) and the ecg because I was questioning pots when I got it.

​

Anyways, with this new update it never shows me my spikes, I can check my watch "170" check the app later and the highest is like 120, and yes, it would be up there for a hot minute, definitely long enough to register. Today it said hr of 205 (I'm taking a shit, there was no way) so I took an ecg and it was wonky on the screen so I went to check it out in the app and THE FUCKER DIDN'T REGISTER IT. It is synced and idk how to troubleshoot it, and now the rhythm is gone and I don't have a record of it.
