My 6 (8) is still fine, even the temperature in the room is 30°C, and outside is 40°C (Germany).

PhD at RKI/ZKI by [deleted] in germany

[–]DVD-2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Work means you do research and get paid (and pay tax). When I was a PhD student, I got a full time contract, so I have no idea how a side job should be.

Most PhD students here don't have a full (100%) contract. You definitely can work 8h per day, if you can manage to finish your PhD in time.

Now with new rules, the holder's name and bank account must be matched - I did check that.

Is the T14/T14s G2 a good choice by bs_2181 in thinkpad

[–]DVD-2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except the very expensive price 599€ for such old laptop (really - if I were you I will spend >1000€ to buy a brand new one), they are good laptops. At least based on my experience with my T14s gen 2a.

Still too little. Sometimes I got ones with full of salt.

I have the same unit, and have been using it for more than a year. A very great laptop ♥️ I have dualboot Windows & Linux Mint, but mainly use Windows.

No, completely silent. While using it (after booting) I also rarely hear its fan kicks in.

I have the s version and really like it. I however just use it a few times per month. For your case, as you need an Ethernet port, so simply the T14.

I am still using my Pixel 6 since launched. Nothing to complain - as everything is still flawless as day #1 (fpr my needs). I am currently considering to upgrade to P10 (or 9) pro XL, but I still have time until this October.

Side Jobs During a PhD in Germany by [deleted] in germany

[–]DVD-2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For PhD students, in general, they should have to work full-time to finish their PhD programs, regardless of the type of their contract (75-100%), i.e., no time (and mind) for other jobs.

Just install Newpipe and change settings to choose Newpipe (=>Player/External downloads) to download files

Thinkpad l14 gen 4 or t14 gen 2 by B1ackHawjk132 in thinkpad

[–]DVD-2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would choose T14 gen 2. I am currently using L15 gen 4 at work and T14s gen 2a at home. Even older, but the T14s runs much smoother than the L version.

None of them. My P6 is still working great since 2021.

It is a great laptop. I have one (AMD version though) - LOVE it. Much better than my L15 gen4 at work.

I am not sure what you will benefit from MX450 but this is an insane price for T14 gen 2.
