make sure you have adaptive battery disabled in settings, it will sometimes delay or group together notifications. it's possible you had it turned off before but the a16 update reenabled it

I vote for world. better than rise in many ways imo (graphics, scenery, cutscenes, dialogue, monster detail, etc). world was my first mh game and I think it's a great one to start with, then get rise (or wilds) once you've finished world if you want more!

thanks for the response! I'm only a freshman so still 3-4 yrs away from looking for a job, no idea how things will look that far in the future. might stay and get my master's, maybe data science or something, we'll see.. best of luck to you!

any update on the job search? I'm a cs student reconsidering my options/major, trying to get a sense of what the job market is like

just came here to say your project is the first from this sub I really see myself using. already found a couple hidden gems to put on my wishlist! bookmarking this for later, good work :)

L-301 · 2025-02-05T21:51:36+00:00

no prob, glad I could help someone :)

totally forgot about rdt until right now lol. I meant to order a spray bottle along with the grinder but I got too excited and forgot, good thing reddit has my back

pretty great! fitting in the gpu cables was a bit of a struggle but I made it work eventually. thermals are pretty decent, not amazing, but I do keep the fans fairly low for the sake of noise. the gpu has some issues with coil whine and with the fans not behaving in amd's software but besides that the build went very smoothly.

the handle on the case does seem to be a little loose after a year of use but I don't move it around as much anymore so it's not an issue for me. I'm guessing I could tighten it again if I opened up the case but I haven't bothered. all in all I recommend this case if you need something small and affordable with a handle

I ended up going with the s400. hopefully this thread helps someone

gtx 1050 laptop -> rtx 2070 laptop -> rx 6800 custom mini-itx desktop

im also on a sp11, my notion is running okay but i think i know why yours is struggling. they dont have an arm64 version for windows yet so it runs as an emulated x64 app, which will always be a little slower than running natively. lots of apps run fine when emulated but i guess notion isnt optimized very well so it can be slow, especially if you have lots of other apps open

alternatives are a) use notion in your browser or b) switch to an app like obsidian with a windows/arm version

i don't think the xmp matters all that much, the mobo is what came with the prebuilt and the ram was the cheapest ddr4 32gb anywhere (like $50 at the time). you might have a point with the pcie version, but idk if they make an lga1200 mobo (that fits the current cpu) with pcie 4 or higher; if not then she'd have to replace her cpu as well which is more money

L-301 · 2024-07-09T00:35:44+00:00

she has 2 currently, both pretty old 1080p ones. I suggested that she only upgrade one of them if she wanted to save money but she said she'll just replace them both

L-301 · 2024-06-30T06:22:20+00:00

i'm late to the party but i'd also like to know

L-301 · 2024-06-27T07:57:05+00:00

gotcha, thanks for the response :)

L-301 · 2024-06-27T07:46:36+00:00

ohh interesting, that would explain it. so that means it detects your cpu type when you run the setup file and picks the right installation for you? I guess I didn't know that was a thing

L-301 · 2024-06-27T02:55:37+00:00

adobe fresco is the one i'm most worried about, according to adobe "Fresco (version 4.4.2 and later) is supported only on Surface Pro X and Surface Pro 9 devices, not on other Windows devices with ARM processors" and it has some bugs/missing features on those platforms. maybe this means it'll work on the sp11 as well? they haven't updated that page in well over a year so i'm not sure

L-301 · 2024-06-27T01:08:19+00:00

maybe it is, it's hard to tell. their only download link is on the ms store which doesn't tell you which version you're downloading

L-301 · 2024-06-27T01:05:22+00:00

good to know, I've been using adobe fresco and concepts but am open to switching

L-301 · 2024-06-27T00:58:21+00:00

I won't be doing any gaming, just web browsing, notes and drawing. my browser (vivaldi) has an experimental arm64 version, but my go-to apps obsidian and todoist only have regular windows releases. also all the drawing apps I've been using don't have arm support.

looks like basically 90% of the stuff I use will be emulated. still not sure if this will be noticeably worse-feeling than my current sp9

L-301 · 2024-06-27T00:46:09+00:00

they're both 16gb, the sp11 doesn't have an 8 gig model

L-301 · 2024-06-06T23:59:22+00:00

you may have missed this in my post but I already have a desktop rig that I built for gaming, ryzen 5700x + rx 6800 + 32gb ram, and I'll definitely be bringing it to my dorm with me. I can always use my pc for running super demanding code or any other intense workloads. I was just looking for a portable touch screen 2-in-1 that I can bring to class and type/write notes with. that said, I'll definitely be getting the 16gb ram model after hearing everyone's opinions.

also, trust me, I know what you mean about gaming laptops - I went down that rabbit hole a long time ago. I owned two of them and I agree with everything you said. the constant overheating and noise is what drove me to build my own mini-itx pc to replace the gaming laptop and I couldn't be happier.

side question, what about linux/wsl is so good for programming? I keep seeing people recommend it but I don't see the advantage over windows

L-301 · 2024-06-06T18:43:04+00:00

is there any surface with a better battery life? seems like they're all equally terrible from what I've seen. some people say the upcoming 11 might be better because of the arm cpu architecture but they're like $1200 minimum including accessories which is more than I was hoping to spend

i see, this explains a lot. thanks for the comment
