The local vendor doesn't know how old these T480 are, it would be clear on place, upon order delivery. The supplier provides 2 year warranty for this refurbished Thinkpad T480 and a 6 month warranty for the battery. Given these warrant

512Gb SSD is preferrable if the thinkpad most probably comes with Windows, for dual booting with Ubuntu.

I don't know if I should care a lot about soldered RAM, there is 2 y guarantee from local suppliers on both new E14 and used T480. But it seems for a price under 600 euros I won't find +backlit keyboard, IPS FHD display, 4 cores,

I googled a bit, and [1] shows that: Here are all the current models without soldered RAM: • E14 / E15 Gen 2 (1x SO-DIMM, Intel only) • L14 / L15 Gen 2 (2x SO-DIMM) • T15p / P15v Gen 2 (2x SO-DIMM) • X1 Extrem

Emulator can be a program with some type of linked list, whose core can emulate computations, which may be stored on various types of memory. In some types of emergencies when all CPUs and RAMs are busy, it can be handy. Maybe part of compu

"it" = some type of linked list. You can have the truth table, for example, for an "AND" gate be statically defined as 4 cells each for every possible result in the list (like 1 and 1 is 1, 1 and 0 is 0 etc). So when th

Of course it would be slower, but suppose time is not a priority while performing computations. CPU could start and stop the emulation, perform some memory management, but not the computation itself. Like, some type of linked list on an SS

Do you mean that any time when, for example, some electronic circuits CAD software simulates the working of a logic "NOT" gate, it needs to actually access this logic gate circuit instance in the CPU?

He needs at least ketamine to test this hypothesis, otherwise it's just another one overfitting of overgeneralization.

He should try to rewrite this topic in ketamine and/or other dissociatives and with appropriate combinations of set&setting, otherwise it's just another one biased opinion.

For flicker etc they offer some "Health Guard", but with totally zero description and features. I use Iris (iristech.co) free version with redshift for this.
