They kind of did explain it. If they cashed it in then there would be coverage about who won it and the fact that they were American and were placing bets with a system would have surfaced.

Windows 7 goes EOL maybe?
ohyea··on Dell Unveils Updated XPS 13 with Intel’s 10th Gen Core CPUs and 4K Panel
I had something similar happen with a Macbook. It ended up being the battery expanding and pushing up against the case/trackpad.
ohyea··on Show HN: IOU – Split shared expenses

ohyea··on Calculators for Contractors, Builders, Remodelers, Carpenters, Woodworkers
