Moonshot today - I think there were still about 20 possibilities on guess 3:

Back at work after a long layoff. Feels weird. Somehow got it only one word left in two guesses.

 

[storrsroars]

Apparently knocked over a glass of water onto my chromebook while nodding off last night.... fried the thing. Had to break out an old lenovo powered by an emaciated 3-legged gerbil with polio to get on web this morning. And it seems I can't get my wordle stats, even though I logged into the same NYT account. So it's been a rough morning.

More dumb luck antics:

Annoyed by this. After guess 3 I said, ahh of course, a beer related word and I stupidly missed it. Then that misses too.

At least I'm not the only one who thought LAGER was a good guess.

 

[storrsroars]

ugh

I stick by my approach. It avoids misses. I'm not guessing double letters until it's clear I need to. I'm not guessing oddball letters when I can eliminate common letters.

Not the two letters you want to get right....

Moving the I is indeed the trick today.

Ha. Hope your Chromebook is back up, I'd give you mine but shipping them probably costs more than a new one. I got the nice, business class Dell one for my daughter, she used it a year in 8th grade then her High School required an iPad.

Still fried. I brought a Macbook back from the dead once. Took a couple months. So I have some hope, although this is the third Chromebook I've drowned.

I think they are intentionally disposable. I think Dell makes the only real business class version, although Lenovo might have a decent one. Most of them are crap from a hardware perspective. ASUS has a ruggedized Chromebook.

I love the things. Been using them as primary computer almost since day they were introduced. Don't need for work except occasional writing assignments. Had 2 ASUS models that were great. Current one was HP and I wasn't fond of keyboard layout. Might go back to ASUS, which has a "water resistant keyboard" model for klutzes like me.
