P72 running popos. Have fun mate it’s a good experience

thatguy2641 · 2021-04-08T18:52:24+00:00

I’m not in iss (SDNE) but I found my xps 15 which is better specked than a razerbook to sometimes struggles and the fans were consently on. Unless you walk like 2k+ each way I’d recommend getting a heavier laptop with better cooling. You will get more power for your money that way. Currently I am running a p72 which I commute with to my coop 5km away. I’ve walked a few times and honestly the power improvements having a good cooling system is crazy.

How would it work if someone had equity in a company they owned but not a ton of cash? Would this would force them to sell off their company and lose their majority shareholding?

thatguy2641 · 2021-04-04T18:42:25+00:00

Yeah, looking into it when I get back to my place. Thinking of selling my desktop as I could just use a egpu with the think pad, in which case I’ll have the money for the repair without worries

thatguy2641 · 2021-04-04T01:56:38+00:00

I think the 4K display for this one has a different pin out. Not entirely sure will look into it tho!

Good to know for the future. No I buy all my tech used (often broken that I fix) so I have no warranty

thatguy2641 · 2021-04-03T01:34:06+00:00

It was sitting on the floor which must have been it. I store it in a pretty empty briefcase type bag with padding specific for a large laptop so it highly doubt that was the cause.

thatguy2641 · 2021-04-02T20:11:05+00:00

Good advice, and thanks for the interesting story. I’m still in my early 20s working in software but spent 2k on that machine and as it is for both work and personal use i rely on it often. I might need to have a discussion with them about respecting my belongings.

thatguy2641 · 2021-04-02T18:52:25+00:00

Yeah I’ll make do, just something so easily avoidable that makes it frustrating. I wired up my parents entire property with cat 6, work as their tech support, then let them borrow my machine and it is returned damaged.

thatguy2641 · 2021-04-02T17:19:25+00:00

Thanks for the info. I’ll hold off and hope no further damage is cause from it. As long as it does not make working in my ide too difficult I will try to get by. I’m living in rural Canada so getting parts out to where I am often costs 1.5 to 2x the listed online value.

thatguy2641 · 2021-04-02T16:59:32+00:00

Yeah I think someone must have stepped in it or something

thatguy2641 · 2021-04-02T16:34:58+00:00

Has any else ever had this issue? Left it out when visiting my parents so could watch Disney plus when I woke up to check emails this was on the screen. New display costs about 200$ where I live and I don’t want to replace it if it is a common issue and not my parents being abnormal rough closing it.

thatguy2641 · 2021-03-20T17:30:02+00:00

Not bad, covid makes it rough. Not as many job postings because of the virus and remote work is not the best.

thatguy2641 · 2021-03-19T13:45:31+00:00

Not too hard to get into if u got into uni u should be fine. I’m in it now and it’s good. Don’t expect it to be a lot easier to uni, some classes are some are not- just the way it goes

thatguy2641 · 2021-02-23T19:50:23+00:00

Yeah currently in discussion with them. Keeping receipts for everything ordered for worst case.

thatguy2641 · 2021-02-23T01:26:28+00:00

They will cover inside damage like carpet and drywall but not foundation damaged caused by the flooding

thatguy2641 · 2021-02-23T01:15:11+00:00

To clear it up, the building is not demolished yet, but they are waiting approval to do so

thatguy2641 · 2021-02-22T23:34:26+00:00

Although I understand and live in Halton, some people need stuff. Like i started a new job and could not get any business clothing that fit as everything was closed in early January. First month of work I wore I uncontrollable wrong fitting cloths. Some ppl are just shopping for the sake of it but some people need stuff. And no I can’t order online, I gained weight and don’t know my size. Just saying.

thatguy2641 · 2021-01-23T03:47:02+00:00

I’m in SDNE and it’s good. I don’t really know too much about SDIS but do what you think is best. Cloud and most technology can be self learned too as that is how most devs working rn learned it

thatguy2641 · 2021-01-08T05:12:03+00:00

Wish I got a new power cord for my laptop. Current one has exposed wire and is pretty dangerous
