Had I been here upon your first annunciation, I would've warned against the sale or relinquishment of such a useful tool, and advised you to cultivate some discipline to eschew online activity when you'd rather read and draw. Otoh, I'm glad that you're more interested in books than sites.
I don't believe getting rid of your personal belongings will help achieve your goal, for me, being completely honest, that's a bad way to cultivate self control. especially with your objective because it doesn't make sense at all, if the computer is something that is in your way, the laptop will be just as much in your way lol
It's fine; I don't do anything on the machine I gave away that I can't do on my old trusty laptop. Not being nailed to a single place will benefit me, and I'll reclaim a lot of space occupied by the screen, keyboard, etc for more useful stuff.
And, well, although it's important, self control is not even my main goal. It's just I don't see much use for it anymore. It's a big bulky powerful machine that I don't use for anything but to update my site. It's a waste! I might be whimsical, but this is something I've been meditating for a year or so.

@ongezell No, because I can't be fucked to use my laptop for anything but work. I get home and I forget it exists.

All else aside, any summer is well spent reading :)
