Performance difference between the slowest [0] and fastest [1] "i7" processors is ~100x so it's best to specify the model. I suggest >9000 passmark score like the 10th gen i7-10710U [2] or newer, or earlier if it is a high

How about BYO tuner while you're at it? See the LG 48 CX OLED television versus the Gigabyte AORUS FO48U OLED monitor. The LG was a jump in quality and performance (4K 120Hz) and many people bought it to use as a computer monitor. But

Rafts leaving Libya are incapable of reaching Italy on their own and are scuttled when they see a ship that could rescue them. The expected value of this gamble is higher when search efforts are high. Migrants would not take this gamble if

McDonald's heavily discounts its items nowadays, but only through deals in their phone app. In my mind that makes the last few years of the Big Mac index unreliable.

Beware, laptop heatsinks don't apply pressure strongly and evenly enough for graphite thermal pads. I adore graphite thermal pads for desktops. I will never attempt to use graphite thermal pads in a laptop again.

Maybe someone put gum/something to block return coins. Then as people used the machine, the return coins built up. Usually the thief would return days later and remove the gum, along with the coins behind it.

When Assange went on Colbert he said WikiLeaks would release another video showing dozens of civilians being murdered. I'm familiar with the video. Unfortunately, I don't see that WikiLeaks ever did publish that one.

This is strange to hear. Model 3s are the cheapest used electric cars in my area, and with FSD included they look very tempting. The only disadvantage I see compared to other electrics is the bad turning radius.
