Apple support sent me to the Genius bar because my Macbook intermittently has flickering horizontal lines on the display, where they told me that it's either the display itself or some connection within the computer but they can't diagnose it because my laptop is too old (and said the solution is to buy a new one).

Anybody know of a decent repair store? I don't want to dump a bunch of money into an old Macbook but I'm interested to know what's going on and get it fixed if it's not too complex/expensive a repair. It's happening on and off so I think it's something getting jostled in the computer rather than an issue with the display.

Any leads appreciated!

Hi all! The skin around my mouth/jawline on one side has been flaky for a little while now, and has started to do the same on the other side.

I have a very minimal routine:

AM: cleanse with cold water only, AO skincare elemental sunscreen SPF 30+. Occasionally (maybe once or twice a week) I use Timeless Vitamin C 20% serum.

PM: cleanse with AO skincare glacial melting cleanser, Cerave PM facial lotion.

I was using Drunk Elephant lala retro whipped cream moisturizer for a while but wanted to switch to something less expensive (I didn't have the flaking while using it though), so I started using Cerave Moisturizing Cream which is when the flaking started. After that I switched to the Cerave PM lotion because I'd previously used it without issue, and I think maybe the flaking got a little better for a while but now is back to the flakiess.

It is very dry where I live (my knuckles are often bleeding and cracked! But a big part of that is having to wash my hands so often) so I don't know if I should just chalk it up to that and wait for the summer humidity to see if it improves or if there are adjustments I can make now to see if it helps!

Any advice appreciated!
