The Acer Nitro 5 AN515 is not an old computer. Instead, it is my current machine. It is allegedly a laptop but has become a desktop.

Ever since the NVMe SSD was installed, the computer might hang when restarting. This is a firmware issue since the keyboard light doesn't automatically turn off when this happens. So, instead, shutdown the computer and then start it.
Several keys on the internal keyboard are unresponsive, such as Left Ctrl, S.

The computer is transported to my parents' place from Best Buy.
⚠️ The keyboard starts having intermittent issues with the affected keys.
The computer is transported to my dorm room.
The keyboard cable is reseated, fixing the problem for a short time.
⚠️ My dorm roommate rearranges my desk while I am gone one day, putting a coaster under the still-plugged-in plugs on the right side of the laptop, which results in the ports becoming slightly wobbly.
2020-02-??: 📈 The 1 TB 7200 RPM hard disk is replaced with a 1 TB SSD.
2020-03-??: The computer is transported to my parents' place.
📈 An 8 GiB RAM stick is installed (8 -> 16).
📈 A 512 GB NVMe SSD is installed.
2020-08-??: The computer is transported to my apartment.
2021-10-06: 📈 The 1 TB SATA SSD is replaced with a 2 TB SATA SSD.
