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
its 15$
lol
that's cheap for a remote
