#73> For the past year, I have been searching for a replacement for my Lenovo Ideapad. Its 8 GB RAM couldn't keep up with the bloated software I run these days. I have the same laptop (using it right now). You can add another 8GB, even though the specs say you can't. (thanks, lenovo...) The big limitation seems to be CPU, despite having an i7-6500U in this one. Opening Google Maps makes the machine crawl, but most other…
You can buy used Lenovo USB-C docks very cheaply but I've had some issues with those. I also tried those big rectangular HP USB-C docks, but those things break so quickly they often arrive DOA. My point is: it's a _great_ idea but I haven't found a dock that works relaibly yet.

#74I'm guessing the author's website is misconfigured. Every path except the root returns an HTTP 404, but the 404 page loads some JavaScript that fetches assets based on the URL. For example, the ThinkPad blog post loads https://utkarshsingh.xyz/assets/thinkpad-p14s/thinkpad-p14s.... This mostly works, but some browsers will display a warning or their own 404 page. Also it means his site won't be indexed in search engi…
Last I checked, this was inevitable if you publish a SPA on GitHub Pages, like the author is doing (GitLab not GitHub, but probably similar): https://gitlab.com/utkarsh181/utkarsh181.gitlab.io/-/blob/ma... There's an open GitLab issue: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages/-/issues/57 Workaround: Publish the artefacts from CI/CD to Netlify or similar, where you can configure URL rewrites.

#75I really appreciate "hardware reports" like this. Tangentially related, I've never seen this symbol before: ≍, apparently it means "equivalent to". Is this common notation in certain communities?

#76The CPU power state issue is resolved in the latest BIOS update. It's not on LVFS until they resolve some certification issue, but you can burn the update ISO to a USB stick and boot from that. Also, mine is outfitted with 64GB of RAM; not sure if this is still available from the Lenovo store.

#79Earlier quoted context omitted.
Currently i do exactly that. I have a ATX box (AMD 2700x + Nvidia 3090) and access it remote, but i hate that it is idle most of the day and to transfer the data that i'm working on to it. (My notebook is my daily driver with company access) I just bought a eGPU case and will give it a shot, will report back :)
Please do! I'm looking forward to hearing how it works out.
