Depends on whether a GPU is present. But yes, all the things. Encoding video, modelling and rendering, compiling large code bases, sleeping for a week at least. Good. EDIT: Oh, your question was about the GPU, not the CPU, soz Well, I don&

Not so, and here's why: Apple is chasing a target, and so does Lenovo. But Lenovo is chasing the way a MacBook used to be, which is good in my opinion. And Apple is skating wherever THE PUCK ARE THEY SKATING NOW SRSLY

That was a significant development, six years late to the table my personal count. So yes, I'm aware. If only it did not come packaged in a sissy mirror powder-box I'd love it. They flimsy keyboard with no travel, and the fragile

They are basically an iPhone digitizer in landscape mode, so yeah, they are very much OK. Trackpoint is still preferable for when editing text.

Heat mostly matters when charging or discharging rapidly, if wear is concerned. So might be less significant than you'd think.

Yes, they are better for going back. No, that's not going to do. I don't even live in a town. There are literally rafts (barns) all over where I live. I can not escape sand. And a single speck is all it takes. To poke a hole in th

I've seen those and touched them. One speck of sand is all it takes, keyboard or screen. Bust. No thanks.

Or poke a hole in the screen by leaving a single speck of sand on the keyboard before closing the lid. There used to be a thick glass panel in front of it, but no more.

Yeah, that really happens. And it's not like there hasn't been enough time for a whole new generation to come up having those things around them from the start. So it's not about education. People don't care to know the

Alt. Q. Why did God make you? A. Sit down with your back straight, close your eyes and shut up for like 3 minutes. Then ask the question. You will get an answer.

That's a good and noble purpose. How has that been going for you, if you don't mind me asking? Got something to share? Something to show? I'd love to find out more of what you've done with it.

On the first point we agree. I'd add that you shouldn't actually use your analytical engine when doing that, but rather your intuition. Because if you actually start measuring and evaluating your progress you'll come up again

If you can do all that in the space of a week, week after week, then sure. I found out that no, I can't actually manage that. Maybe you can though. Are you trying right now? How's it going, if I may be so familiar?

That's a good direction to set one off. Love it. I don't enjoy that question the OP voiced in the framing that he used. I think it's a misguided framing, that does not limit the question sufficiently that it might have a chan

That endeavour would be pretty much futile, would it not? The momentum in the other direction is built into the world physics, the rules of the game, is it not? Would that not lead to a frustrating life?
