letsgo bins are now a free source of 18650 cells for my thinkpad battery??
not really
Depends entirely on what you’re using the device for and how (if at all) you utilize networked (NAS, cloud, etc) or external storage. For me personally 256gb would be way more than needed, since I have nothing that would take large amounts of storage on local device.
I guess that might be true but for me just installing all the random proprietary crap like matlab takes up a lot of my storage (even more if you need multiple versions), so for using laptops in education I really doubt that 250gb is comfortably enough. I'd honestly rather pay the extra $15 than constantly worry about running out of storage.
1x 16gb would allow cheaper upgrade to 32gb later if that’s something OP is concerned about.
I don't really like this argument because by the time they'd be upgrading ram the price of ram (of that speed/spec) would probably have depreciated a lot and it would be just cheaper to buy it in the future. It also kinda limits you to staying on that generation/speed of ram which is bad.
imo 250gb is not enough at all, at least spec a 500gb or 1tb. I don't even have games on my 256gb machine and it's out of storage because of proprietary software bullshit.
Buying storage directly from framework is expensive though, I recommend just buying it from a local hardware store. The cheapest out of the sn550/570/580/750/850, crucial p5, kc2500 should do.
Also, 1x16gb will halve your memory bandwidth, get a 2x8gb kit

not if you have total internal reflection

I feel the same way but Brodie's usually fine
trams at street level are convenient though
also costs much less than grade separating everything
do we actually know how performant the Snapdragon chips are or is it just all speculation?

Made some replacement parts for the T430 because I had a broken T430 that was missing these. None of them require screws so they should be ideal if you find a broken T430 on the side of the road or something.
T430 doesn't turn on - Help with troubleshooting?
I just bought a used "faulty" T430.
It doesn't turn on at all (no lights, no sounds, no fan spin) and when I tried to turn it on with only the critical components (motherboard, power adapter and speakers), I got the same result.
I've also examined the power area on the motherboard, and it seems like 20V is getting delivered to the motherboard just fine.
But I've looked at the motherboard thoroughly, and I couldn't find a single part of it that looked bad.
Is this definitely caused by the motherboard, or could it be an issue with another component like the CPU?
Could we get a "delayed new" sort on Lemmy?
Because of the time it takes for mods to moderate content on Lemmy, the"new" sort's been prone to abuse.
Could a "delayed new" sort, where the newest content x hours ago is shown be introduced to help suppress this problem?
Any way to turn off the KDE task switcher animation?
Coming from Windows 10 (I switched 6 months ago), I find the task switcher animation in KDE extremely obnoxious, as I expect it to pop up instantly.
Still, I enjoy the other animations in KDE, so I don't want to turn off all the animations in the global settings.
I searched for a solution but all the relevant posts were on the now defunct KDE subreddit which I cannot view.
Is there any way to turn off just the fade in/fade out animation?
