Except if you live in a third world country with a dial-up type connection

What are you trying to achieve
And I know he doesn't.
Really
Just describe your use case precisely
Otherwise it's just gonna be running around on both sides
Even for things that requires mandatory GUI you got possibilities to do stuff as of today that are completely acceptable
Sure it **might** not be 180+ FPS silky smooth 4k
But as far as I know, almost no productivity / business apps requires that
Might require a bit of extra work, yeah, but that's still reasonably doable I guess
it does not even need to be 180fps etc on laptop
for example you need to edit something while using CNC what you realised while there
laptop next to you what can open the software required and do all of it right there and now
or whatever remote box what you need first start vpn,connect,start software,think why the fuck you cant directly send the data, find usb stick for said data,download it first from remote desktop to machine you are using to remote into said desktop
then move the file either via usb stick or hope that it can boot the software just so you can send it to cnc via cable
ohh.. and paying from 2 software licenses instead of 1
I assume you're talking about profesionnal CNC right? Not hobbyist?
just cnc hobbyist of professional
at least here is machine shop what lets you run CNC stuff as hobbyist too (for the cost)
yeah or*
Hobbyist and pro are very, *very* different contexts for CNC
i know
If you're going to have to do that for "10+ hours," you've fucked up. Hard. But sure, it's a reasonable scenario for a quick fix.
but both have similar needs for right there and now changes without extra jumps
As a hobbyist you could go with a single desktop because you only have one/a bunch of machine to control, not a huge fucking factory
thats why beefy business laptops are
^ business? 😉
business laptops as line
And maybe a laptop to do adjustment if, let's say, your setup is far from your computer
If it's pro, then it's a whole different story
:D
😉 😉 😉
In that case, yeah, using a high end laptop is gonna be acceptable *but* usually those are expensive as fuck
also as hobbyist your desktop would be at home not at that random rented carage/hall where you need it
Yes. Unreasonably expensive as far as I'm concerned.
Yeah, that's why I said a main desktop and a remote cheap laptop for additionnal stuff

used business laptops cost sub 1000 easily
