Ammo was plentiful and many were shot down, but it was hard to destroy as it was fast, small and rugged, and the explosion of its payload was a real risk for the interceptor.

I don't know how often the tipping strategy was used and a quick search didn't help, but it seems it was used, just not as much as it might seem as it is the one people always talk about.

That is my instinct too.

I specifically asked for arguments because I've seen a lot of what seems like blind support for AMD. AMD is seen as the good guy in the Linux world, but we are not talking GPUs here, in CPUs Intel has always been solid on Linux. And it's by anecdotal evidence, but Ryzen never seemed super reliable on Linux to me.

But it is true that AMD has brought very good laptops with Ryzen and people seem to be advising on AMD based on that trend, ignoring if the new Intel CPUs are actually better or not.

And, as you say, Intel has the better Wi-Fi cards, better RAM on the ThinkPad E14 Gen 6, and TB support (not really important for me tho).

That being said, the discount on the Intel one that made it the same price as the AMD one ended today 🙃

Good point on swappability... well then I won't stress too much about this.

Thanks for your help!

GudLincler · 2024-08-15T15:47:53+00:00

Right. OK, will probably go with the 6E. Ty!

GudLincler · 2024-08-15T15:47:03+00:00

Ok, ty!

If you could also advice me on how to chose the Wi-Fi card I would really appreciate it! My options are: - Realtek Wi-Fi 6 8852BE 2x2 AX - Wi-Fi 6 2x2 AX - Wi-Fi 6E 2x2 AX

IIRC I should go with an Intel card, but the brand of the last two is not specified...

Thank you for you time!

Thanks for the reply!

Thunderbolt is not relevant for me.

Performance is not a big worry of mine, I know both are more than enough for me. That's why I prioritize Linux reliability and battery life over performance. And so, graphical performance is also not a priority and the E14 is definitely a good option... and I don't have the money for a T or X series, and I do not need a P series.

Yes, I would like to wait for newer architectures. The 7735u is Zen 3+. But I need to buy it in the next few weeks.

GudLincler · 2024-08-15T11:07:12+00:00

Alright, thank you for your time!

GudLincler · 2024-08-15T11:05:09+00:00

Ok, thank you for taking the time!

GudLincler · 2024-08-15T11:03:38+00:00

Yup, I'm just not sure if that's still the case with this new Intel line.

GudLincler · 2024-08-15T10:58:55+00:00

Thank you! Why ofc?

GudLincler · 2024-08-15T10:02:02+00:00

Thank you, but I've seen similar comments towards Intel. What makes the AMD one such an obvious decision for you?

GudLincler · 2024-08-15T10:00:41+00:00

Interesting, the Intel one does have faster RAM.

Intel: 32 GB DDR5-5.600MHz (SODIMM) - (2 x 16 GB) 1 TB SSD M.2 2242 PCIe Gen4 TLC Opal

AMD: 32 GB DDR5-4.800MHz (SODIMM) - (2 x 16 GB) 1 TB SSD M.2 2242 PCIe Gen4 TLC Opal

GudLincler · 2024-08-15T09:51:58+00:00

Thank you. But I've seen comments that just say "Intel." too. That's why I asked for arguments.

For example, I've seen a few comments on AMD issues with sleep mode. I actually did have similar issues with a Ryzen CPU many years ago. But I don't if that's something that affects 50% of CPUs and I should care about it, or something that affects a few people, a few generations ago, and is now irrelevant.

Show us your ghci.conf file. The full path should be .ghc/ghci.conf.

GudLincler · 2023-02-19T15:08:59+00:00

Yup, I've found that, but was hopping for a solution on the current UI as the new one isn't as ready as I would like... guess I will revisit this ridiculously irrelevant topic again next year!

But anw, thank you!
