… wat? What’s with your hate for a keyboard?

Outside of missing the windows key there’s nothing wrong with the model M. PS/2 interface is fine too. Most boards support hotplugging it and it basically work or it doesn’t unlike USB which can get weird.

That’s still theoretical speeds, I doubt any drive will be that fast.

Device ships with good emmc storage, it’s all pretty dire. The surface go my friend has got about 150MBps writes and 250 reads. That’s what I’d expect from a “good” emmc machine. I bought some $100 Walmart special a year ago and it gets like maybe 150 reads and 50 writes. Hard drives are fast than this.

Some USB drives are actually pretty good. I have a drive that sustains over 350MBps reads and 150 writes, and bursts almost up to full 400MBps.

That that drive is the exception, not the norm. Those micro center flash drives with white labels? You may get 1 gig of writes in before they crater to 20MBps or less. And the newer black ones? I’ve seen single digit MBps transfers. Putting an OS on there is suffering. Shit just writing the iso on there is bad.

Emmc will be consistently mediocre. If OP had an EMMC laptop then I’m going to guess they didn’t pay extra for a fancy flash drive so the experience is going to be DIRE. If you want to play with the live environment it’s fine.

My Thinkpad P1’s is soldered :( At least that came with a good Intel Wireless card.

But somehow on my T14s (a much smaller machine) it wasn’t soldered.

But then on the bigger T14 it is soldered. So I have no clue what is going on at Lenovo. At least the machines with good wifi cards are soldered, and the shit ass ones are

105c is the max operating temperature. It’s not going to run away the second it hits 106.

Your CPU starts throttling at 104c so that way it almost never hits at 105c for long If it can’t maintain clocks then it drops them until 104c can mostly be maintained.

Seagate has more than bad batches. When every single one of their 1tb per platter barracuda drives have high failure rates then that’s a design/long term production issue.

Why? It’s designed to run up to 105c.

I think it was when AMDs 7000 series CPUs were running at 95c and everyone freaked out that AMD came out and said that the CPUs are built to handle this load 24/7 365 for years on end.

And it’s not like this is new to Intel. Intel laptop CPUs have been doing this for a decade now.

AMDs 7000 series CPUs were designed to boost until they hit 95c, then maintain those temps. 9000 series behaves differently for boosting, but the silicon can handle it.

Not all laptops have replaceable wireless cards. If you have a thinner machine they probably soldered it on. But I can’t find any rhyme or reason to what manufacturers do and don’t solder.

Those really low capacity cards have DIRE read speeds though. I wouldn’t want to cheap out too much on them.

We have one SD card at work that seemingly works fine, but has read speeds of like single digit Mbps. It’s plenty for the arcade machine it runs with no more than 10mb roms at the max. But oof is it bad.

Was your bios updated in the last few years? Not when you updated it, but when the manufacturer pushed a newer update.

If it’s older than 2023 then you’re screwed. If it’s been updated since then then you’re probably fine.

About 90 degrees for me

Unless you manually configured a bunch of things you shouldn’t need to do anything at all. AMD generally has great open source drivers so everything should just work™️

OP wants a “laptop Grade” processor which generally means x86. The pine tab has a rock chip arm CPU which is… dire? It’s 5 years old and even then was based on a like 7 year old process node. Very Linux first for an arm tablet, but not a laptop grade CPU.

Don’t forget battery life. Most of those systems get some pretty awful battery life, or are comically large.

It is the only part of the body without a blood supply. Instead, it receives nutrients via aqueous humor (the liquid between the cornea and vitreous).

Instead, oxygen dissolves in tears and then diffuses throughout the cornea to keep it healthy.[5] Similarly, nutrients are transported via diffusion from the tear fluid through the outside surface and the aqueous humour through the inside surface.

And because that seemed lacking still and I’m too dumb to figure it out ChatGPT’s response:

The palpebral conjunctival blood vessels and the capillaries of the eyelids supply oxygen to the tear film behind closed lids. Oxygen diffuses from these vessels into the cornea.

Because youtube was so much better in that regard?

Might sell your data in the future is a hell of a lot better than currently selling the shit out of your data. Nebula is a side grade in terms of privacy, but an upgrade in terms of creators not getting their shit deleted for no good reason.

Nvidia for compute* has always been fine on Linux. It’s Nvidia for an actual display that’s been the biggest problem.

They’ve gotten away with it for 10 years now. I’m sure they’ll continue to get away with it.

unless you have some exotic hardware

Or very recent hardware. 22 is based on Ubuntu 24.04, which shipped with version 6.8 of the kernel which is from March 2024. That excludes all of Nvidia’s 50 series, AMDs RX 9000 series, AMDs 9000 series CPUs/boards, Intel’s Core 200 series/chipsets, Arc B series GPUs.

Sure your 5090 might boot and display a picture, but that thing aint gonna work right.

Look at it from the flip side: Linux is so bad people would rather deal with this than deal with Linux.
