no but there are fucktons on dhgate @Nekros

took me over a year to convince myself to buy one but it was worth it. Buy it goys

it's more pleasant to work with that any ThinkPad I've had

you got a really good deal on it though, wouldve you paid the full price for it?

that's a good question

I would probably have gone for a higher performance version paying the full price for it

not the core m3 version

the core m3 version is very bad from a price/performance point of view

which one do you have now?

the lowest end version

are you gonna add more wam

can't, it's soldered

flip it for more and invest that money into a higher end version, fren

I've run docker and monodevelop on it today, it runs fine

that's about the most performance-hungry thing I do on a laptop

also the battery lasted for almost 6 hour of software development with 3 docker containers running

higher perf version will take more battery

I didn't take pictures of the open laptop but about 50 % of the laptop guts are battery and it lasts really long

I think if I actually stopped those containers when I didn't need them, which were running MS-SQL, Kestrel and Elastic Search, it would have lasted longer

the CPU on the other hand sucks, I converted a 2 hour movie with ffmpeg to burn-in the subtitles because VLC was unable to stream subtitles over chromecast, it took almost 5 hours to burn in the subtitles into a 2 hour 1080p h.264

while my desktop computer (Ryzen 7, 32 GB Ram) took about 15 min

of course we are comparing a low-end laptop to a higher-end desktop but 15 min vs 5 hours for the same task

how do I go about finding a remote for a home cinema speaker system that went out of production like 15 years ago?

you dont

just buy a univrsal remote and hope the codes work tbh

^

how to know what universal remote might work with it

do you have an old xiaomi phone? Like, redmi note 3 pro?

the old redmis have an IR blaster

yeah I do and I use the ir blaster for it

mi a1

you can teach them all codes

but Im not the only one using it

I kept my old RN3P just to use it as a remote for basically everything

a remote that you have to recharge every other day?

I found one on ebay but its 1. expensive 2. is the ugliest thing in the world

No in flight mode when using it only a few times a day, without apps in the background, it lasts 4-5 days

you can even charge it from tvs anyway so i guess its alright
