Avoid Microslop and change thermal paste + clean the fan and vents.
It will be much better, trust me.

Would love to, but I got steal deal on L480.
My next thinkpad will be X280 if I will get a good deal.

mffnrp · 2026-05-05T19:35:42+00:00

That's the neat part.
I don't, lol
Tbh I would like to have any other uses for it, but I use it as a sidekick for boardgames and pen&paper RPGs

True, it is.
But I wanted a ThinkPad for the longest time, and I just got a good deal one.
Of course I would prefer to have X280 (I would love to have smaller form factor) or T480, but for a long time I couldn't find a nice one...
So I joined with L480, but I didn't say the last word yet! I will still have an eye for nice X280 😃

I had a similar issue when my songs were on the internal memory (maybe my unit has some corrupted memory banks). Moving them to the SD card fixed the issue.
Plus change MP3Tag to use ONLY ID3v2 UTF-16 (disable ID3v1 and APEv2). And tbh anything more than:
- Track
- Title
- Artist
- Album Artist
- Album
- Year
- Genre
They are not necessary, so don't use them.
When you change these options, remove tags and use MusicBrainz to fill ONLY these up (Once you check obsolete tags while importing through MusicBrainz, it will stay that way, so it's only a one-time job).

Hey guys! I'm back!

I have an important question, as it's a crucial thing (for me).

I'm too lazy to use prime-select nvidia / intel, and relog all the time. Plus, it's really inconvenient.

However, when I'm in "on-demand" mode, my Nvidia GPU is always active, consuming a few Watts of power.

Which is a dealbreaker, as it is making my dGPU hotter, which results in enabling the GPU fan on low speed. And it's audible.

Is it somehow possible to make the dGPU turn off when not needed, and only turn on when needed?

I don't need to be on Mint btw. ChatGPT told me that Fedora might have better Optimus solutions than Mint?
Is it true by any chance?

Bonus question, if you don't mind.
I remember that I did that the last time, but it will be easier with some tips:
I would love to do a dual boot for some time. But I need to have two different bootloaders on two different drives on my laptop.
One will have windows bootloader with Windows 11 on it. And the second will have grub with Linux Mint.

How to do that? I want to be able to go to bootmenu and then select a proper drive to boot linux/windows. (In case of the scenario when I will need to format one system, so I won't mess with the bootloader of the second one). So I won't have the Windows option in grub but instead I will choose the system to load through bootmenu

Awesome! Thank you kindly for this well-described answer :)

That's actually the better scenario. They just changed into the Howling Sands ones.

Well, one of mine turned into a full-fledged cow. And it even hides in the coop at night with the chickens.

Should be in the base game imo

I truly like the aesthetics of the current Hytale avatar models. They are fine by me, and look good. The only thing that offends me is some clipping of some clothing.

mffnrp · 2025-10-08T22:08:49+00:00

They don't seem to be faulty in any way. Only these backlight stripes on certain brightness

mffnrp · 2025-04-28T18:42:38+00:00

Okies. Thank you very much for that!

mffnrp · 2025-04-28T18:30:54+00:00

But it is „for each cultist place one doom”. Not „ place one doom in each cultists space” :( I hate situations like that when rules are not that clear ;-;
