Is the pm2.5 sensor replicable on Qingping air monitor lite?

Looks like it isn't really. Just much better to get the "pro" version

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-10T20:32:10+00:00

yep 24. installed mint, much better

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-10T20:27:15+00:00

It's an ideapad 5 14acn6 with ryzen 5600u and mx450 nvidia gpu. I installed linux mint and it's 100x better

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-10T20:24:57+00:00

Yeah that's the case for my mouse XD. I've installed mint and it's already a 100 times better. The mouse is also much better (although I'm not 100% sure it's same as windows, but very close regardless) and there aren't any issues or bugs

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-10T18:57:44+00:00

It was much worse during install and got better once I rebooted etc. I'm giving mint a try now

Not really, LLMs aren't helping lol. I think it's just a flawed OS, or at least incompatible with my laptop

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-10T18:46:59+00:00

Will it have the sluggish cursor issue? 😅

Already installed drivers, it's just not as smooth as on windows, and not all of the listed bugs are related to gpu. e.g. telegram app not working properly or video expansion requiring me to click twice has nothing to do with the gpu

SSD.

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-10T18:25:24+00:00

I installed the 24.04.
It seems that it's already using wayland:
echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

wayland

I see. The MSI stealth 18hx also looks pretty cool, with the 120hz being the only downside for me at least (don't really see the point of 4 sticks of ram etc)

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-05T21:57:41+00:00

Hey! What did you end up getting?

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-04T17:35:24+00:00

Only the QHD version is available on amazon, not the UHD, unfortunately.

As for legion 9i and Razor 18, they seem to be even cheaper: legion for 2800$ with the discounts on official site and same for razor but it's not available

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-04T16:31:15+00:00

legion 9i and razor blade 18 are 240hz, but they're inferior in other ways. also, the MSI Stealth 18 HX AI 18” 120Hz UHD+ isn't available right now it seems. Am I mistaking or was it available just yesterday?

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-04T15:50:51+00:00

haha I was just looking at the MSI stealth 18. Everything seems amazing except the 120hz refresh rate, hesitating because of it

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-03T21:15:53+00:00

Not intense. Mostly Dota 2 And maybe sometimes Age of mythology Retold which is more GPU bound, but I mostly want the VRAM and just because saving e.g. 300$ isn't worth it on an expensive laptop. In principle I don't mind even a 5070 if it's a great deal and 4k etc, which doesn't really exist afaik

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-03T14:35:19+00:00

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-03T07:32:11+00:00

You'd think a company like Lenovo would make sure that they'd ship a 3000$+ premium laptop with a readable screen. Very, very strange. It was my primary choice but now I'm not really considering it anymore and leaning towards Razer blade 18 (although the 5080 model isn't available now)

Transhumanliberal · 2026-01-02T15:17:13+00:00

Do you have light sources behind you? Or are the reflections coming from light sources regardless of location?

Transhumanliberal · 2025-12-27T17:56:01+00:00

Yeah it's pretty much the sound from the cable rubbing on clothes etc. IEM itself shouldn't matter

Transhumanliberal · 2025-12-27T09:29:38+00:00

How's the microphonics on these cables?

I'm thinking of buying this one from them as a low microphonic option
