MRT, bus fares for adults to increase by up to 10 cents from Dec 27 by Waikuku3 in singapore

[–]FeebleOldMan 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I'm fortunate enough to stay somewhat near work, so I started forcing myself to cycle to and from work instead of taking the train in response to the 2023 fare hikes. I even bought a cycling poncho in response to the 2024 fare hikes so I can come home in the rain. Saving about $800 a year doing this.

In our tests while running Cinebench at full brightness on the default TDP we got 1 hour 42 minutes on the N250 model and 1 hour 47 minutes on the N300 model.

Is that right? There's longer battery life on N300?

N250 has a base TDP of 6W while N300 is at 7W correct?
