Just watched a YT videos by CJ The X and damn it's amazing, these videos are just so much but also so good at the same time, in a way I can't describe, it's a performance, it's almost a bit of stand up comedy while also philosophical
I recommend starting with the following videos of theirs.

yeah it seems the OEM of this terrible windows machine has somehow fucked it up so that the USB driver doesn't load when you're in the recovery environment.
and it's a tablet. guess what bus they used to connect the touch screen? THAT'S RIGHT, USB!
this is on top of them shipping a windows 8.1 tablet with a 16gb SSD.
