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.

Speed limits go up to 130 (80mph) in Australia so seems like they think it’s OK.

Mind you, in Australia the speed limit is usually followed pretty well.

That’s because Australia has realistic speed limits. The US doesn’t, and thats why people drive over it all the time.

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

There’s no drm on band camp

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.

Unless you have memories of the 90s you’re not a 90s kid. If you were born in 97 you are objectively not a 90s kid. You’re a 90s baby.

Turning 30? They’ve all turned 30.

I’d find a comfy job that’s easy to do even if it doesn’t pay the best.

Those 200gb games take a while to download, even on a gigabit internet connection.

Pretty much no manufacturer is going to sell you parts besides maybe replacement feet. But the only things that fail on mice are all jellybean components.

Left mouse button fails? Buy another from mouser. Middle button fails? Digikey. Side button? Some other components selling company.

Outside of those super light mice there’s nothing special about any of them other than the exact layout, and the case. And the cheaper the mouse usually the simpler they are on the inside, and the easier it is to solder. Most PCBs will be single sided with through hole components.

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.

Reading has never been a problem for any solid state media. Once it’s written you can read it as many times as you’d like with almost no wear. Writing can be a problem, but they say the SD cards are read only once they’re made so unless you’re constantly swapping software on the card then you’ll be fine.

My dog likes licking armpits. It’s usually only my own, but when he’s mauling you if you put your arms up and he sees pit he’s going for it.

and most of them are better that the windows-only options. Gimp

Lmao.
