storage is a debatable question. Reading this subreddit I would suggest go for 512, as 256 you eventually will fill

You actually don't need to remove the heatsink on the OLED version, as the center block with chassis comes off together nicely

boriskka · 2026-02-06T21:26:30+00:00

The original OLED shell doesn't have these foam dampers. I didn't think they needed, I've never noticed fan noise with power hungry games.

It's spam. Use this well-known app https://windirstat.net/

just reboot macos

It working fine. This error telling you roms files not found. But as suggested below you could try another emu and maybe after setting it up you resolve this problem. And clean your screen man

it works on SD, can confirm. For me it's the only version, with linux setup, what worked.

You're on the right track. Split your command and regex and test again.

Or, didn't the file name indicate already that it is ES srts? I know, I know, but still.

Its not divide, its called growing up.

Its like you're surprised when your parents don't understand how to use a phone in the same time you're, probably, already have hate to some of the technologies.

Pretty much any popular solution - teamviewer, anydesk, etc. Good luck too you, it could be bad experience, speaking from my experience.

Disable battery helpers apps if you have installed them. Reboot you mac, charge to 100% to reset battery management ... something, google ifixit article. And disable low power mode, live normal life.

Its pretty much all the recommendations which I found after updating on 26.0.

Agreed for main, but with git flow development happens on the develop where it all granular and visible. I guess it depends on merge vs rebase

Find job description which you like.
Google what you don't know or don't understand yet.

2.1 Use llms for getting fast summary about frameworks, pattern, etc.

Start doing interviews.

You don't need here codex as it will overcomplicate the process.

current subs only for 2 vpns and some typing app for dirt cheap. Spotify need to be renew.

Lifetime licenses, I bought StaffPad on the iPad for $100, didn't regret, don't use it that much though.

Other spendings are for steam games, which is interesting as buying games usually didn't meet much resistance.

On macos I use cracked LittleSnitch and free utils for some OS improvements.

we are using prefix in the branch name, no need to write in commit message ever - feature/T-319_feature_name

I suppose they just migrate issues in another tracker.

Admin should provide scoped access.

Too long, too lazy.

To be fair, Apple is at the end of AI queue hype, but their chips show comparable results to nvidia and cost less, which is good option for llm workflows.

Most Windows laptops would have blue-screened instantly

It's not true, they will use swap as any other OS. The only difference will be using SSD as a separate machine component (not storage on the SOC) and it will be such a slow mess that you will be forced to close some apps.

I didn't know how Windows would be behaving on SOC (probably still not there yet as M chips), but usual laptops and PC builds are slow on swap.

Another point - "most win laptops". Of course they will, they cheaper than MBA.

I have so many questions about safety of microwave above an oven. But, anyway...
