I have one 32GB DDR5 SO-DIMM in my laptop that runs at 5600MHz. Right now it’s worth about $500 (can’t find a price for an equivalent in my local european webstore, they’re all slower), I bought it at 180€. I bought said laptop months before the price skyrocketed. (it’s one of the reasons I’m glad I didn’t wait for FL16 Gen 2 and bought a Gen 1 even though it’s already “outdated”)

This meme is… more real than one would expect.

to elaborate, i think that when she got tricked by the solver into letting it in

isn’t this practically canon because of ep 5’s intro?

Furthermore, i think that the version of Cyn we see in Uzi’s tail at the end of the show is simply pure Cyn, none of the solver’s influence for the most part.

well, the solver would have nowhere to “go” if this was the case and i doubt it can just be deleted because it’s an eldritch horror thing, so i have to disagree

I almost thought that it was an ADHD joke. Dammit.

the “biology” knowledge in this post is as advanced as elementary school

(see: intersex people exist)

Specifically if you’re in lower Manhattan.

ruledy

graciously surprised?

the EDIT: This aged like milk was about that. Also, this post is almost a year old, why are people still commenting?

The advice is very human

I feel like Uzi doesn’t get to make fun of Cyn’s intelligence and shallow personality nearly enough.

Pretty much the only time they got in front of each other was spent fighting. Maybe if we had a season 2 ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Wheatley was literally built to be a moron (if PotatOS wasn’t lying about that, which would have required her to lie about not being able to lie, which seems a bit farfetched) and he still made an almost-perfect plan. Cyn had everything she needed to make her life perfect and she decided to… destroy everything without thinking about the long term.

nice! what software did you use?

the device is too large for a mobile workstation

I’ve seen up to 19 inch laptops, so I don’t understand that.

Guess we’ll see then.

I don’t really see the point of the FD with how standard ATX Desktops exist, to be honest

Wouldn’t call it up to date, but that’s fair. I just hoped they would focus more on things like the FL16 instead of making stuff like the FD (which has barely even launched and is already flopping).

I don’t remember there being a generation between 7000 and HX 300.

Yeah, I get that, but shouldn’t they have focused on making the existing products live up to their promise of upgradeability before releasing new SKUs?

Looks like a MiG-29 to me

You could look at some more used ThinkPad options like a T470 or a T480. They can often be found for cheap refurbished on eBay. I would also take a look at online benchmarks to see what fits your requirements. In my experience, that works better than looking at spec sheets.

A T480 is about 500 euros, just as much as a T14, but with a worse CPU.

the prices you’re quoting are absolutely insane, T14 Gen1 AMD should be around the $/€200 mark, that’s old tech (those are actually 3000-series Ryzens), you’re entering battery replacement territory with that age - and those things are expensive.

yeah, i was expecting people would lose it over that price. 200 euro is the price of a T450 here btw. for some reason, it seems they’re DOUBLE the price in Greece, with 5000/6000-series (gen 2) T14s costing about 700 euros. It’s insane, but it’s my only shot.

durability - well, as you’ve learned first hand, that’s an easily breakable/losable/stealable device, all the milspec bullshit notwithstanding. babying the thing obsessively is a losing proposition. what you should do is make this device as fungible as possible, i.e. set up a good backup/restore system so when (not if) something does happen, you’re up and running in no time.

well the primary issue isn’t the data, it’s the hardware itself being replaced. i could keep the t450 around for that, i guess?

fixing the things in any semi-normal market is a non-issue, as they’re easily opened and the parts are standard and plentiful. I’ve sourced and replaced screens on a T420s, T480s, T14 AMD Gen1; you get them either from local junkers or from aliexpress.

no shit, i had the t450’s screen repaired same day. the problem is the repairs cost (the 1080p panel was about 80 euros), that’s why i want to cut down on repairs.

as to your spec that it needs to be a store - maybe rethink that. I haven’t been to greece in a decade, but I remember the then burgeoning alt-market of phones and similiar stuff, being resold, decoded en masse, repaired, etc., I doubt it’s that much different nowadays.

eh, last i dealt with a device i bought online customer support was total dogshit (skroutz.gr iirc) and they kept sending RMA pickup guys despite me telling them I don’t have the box. they literally don’t have any humans to talk to about any problem you might face.
