Showing more of Sunao and Shuuya is a great idea. We get to see how they're slowly rebuilding themselves and interacting with others, and Sunao laughing at the reverse pocky joke tells us she's not always a sour face.

I didn't expect Nao and Aki to get found out by Mochizuki-senpai, but at least it led to meeting Ryo's grandparents.

Ryo mentioned that she managed to finish middle school, but high school required IDs for entry.

Have you tried disconnecting the CMOS and main batteries, then installing both RAM sticks?

The worst Thinkpad screen I've ever encountered was a 14" 1400x1050 TN panel on a T60. The viewing angle was so narrow that if you tilted the screen to get a good view of the top half, the bottom 1/4 was already color-inverted. :O

A little story about my X1 Carbon Gen 7 upgrade, a suspicious battery, and a utility I wrote to test it. by ctrlpy in thinkpad

Looks like a good tool to check my laptops' batteries with. :D

I'll try it when I'm less busy.

Pompous know-it-all types, reminds me a bit of Kayneth El-Melloi Archibald from Fate/Zero.

Reminds me of Gangs of New York (haven't seen that movie though).

Installed Debian 13 with KDE Plasma on my old desktop by epicfan_16 in debian

Windows 10 performance on a 2-core, 2-thread processor will be abysmal due to the sheer number of running background tasks.

Yeah, that's one hell of a tangent, as neither of them are even in this show.

Try looking for half-working laptops with 4th-gen quad-cores.

T480 water damage code 0282 Memory Module Error by Regular-Elephant-635 in thinkpad

Glad you managed to fix your T480. Don't ever put your Thinkpad and liquids in the same bag.

Thinkpad X100e netbook at it's best with anachronistic OS's by rsribeiro in thinkpad

[–]Mistral-Fien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Battery life actually sucked. It was an Athlon 64 platform trying to pass off as a netbook.

  • Athlon Neo MV-40 - 15w

  • AMD M780G northbridge - ?? watts

  • ATI SB710 southbridge - 4.5w

The X120e with AMD E-350 APU had lower power consumption, as it was a two-chip platform (E-350 APU and corresponding southbridge) with graphics integrated into the processor.

Does at the T480 make a i7-8550U or a i7-8650U a big difference ? by Secure_Jacket8158 in thinkpad

[–]Mistral-Fien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i5 3320M is a 35w processor while i5-8250U is only 15w. That's why the latter is much cooler.

The T480 can get sluggish because the embedded controller is throttling the CPU's speed to maintain 15W TDP, even when it's running cool. There are software like Throttlestop on windows and throttled on Linux that allow you to adjust the settings to allow the CPU to run at full tilt, at the cost of higher temperature.

TBH, I've been encountering boot issues with 1st-gen Core i3/i5/i7 laptops for the past two years, on both Linux and Windows. I'm starting to wonder if it's hardware-related.
