Can’t wait to get fresh baguette here in Rostock over the next few decades.

I have two Xeon E5-2697A v4’s in my system. 32 cores. My machine runs the latest AAA titles like Indiana Jones on maximum settings flawlessly.
Microsoft: “Just throw it away, bro.” Bless Lord Gaben for making Proton so good, I can run 95% of my Steam library on Linux, with better performance.

Just copy
C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/to/home/yourname/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/and Steam will recognize those games are already present when you try to download them. - Comment on CSS moment 3 months ago:
- Comment on Germany’s four-day work week proves to be a massive hit 3 months ago:
It’s only a test run done by a few companies, though. I’m a German and having a four day work week is still highly unlikely. Most people work 40h/week or more, from Monday to Friday.
I’m in the very lucky position to have a 30 hour work week. 3x8,1x6 and Fridays off. None of the people I know work like this, they either simply can’t afford it or they don’t have enough leverage against their employer to make it possible.
Also, the conservative parties in our political system are actively pushing against it, demanding even more work to compensate for our rapidly aging population and they will be back in office after February. What a time to be alive.

Also it will release fumes that you don’t want near your food.

This. Especially since they still have the worst hinge designs on notebooks I’ve ever seen and they have continued to build them so shoddily for years. It must be deliberate at this point.

Same here. If I start around 12pm-ish, it’s totally and I guess nobody would even bother if I slept a little longer. At my previous job I got my ass handed to me if I didn’t show up early in the morning, and no one cared that the office was at the ass-end of the world or that I put in a night shift the day before…it was horrible.

It’ll probably be a brick in a few months, when the company goes bankrupt and the servers it relies on get shut down. So even getting it for free would be too expensive.

Mine has neither, it’s a challenge.
- Comment on My refurbished ThinkPad (L390 Yoga) came with wrong rubber feet (too thick) not allowing it to turn into tablet mode. 7 months ago:
Yes I bought it ~3 years ago directly from Lenovo and the rubber feet look just like the ones in that photo.
- Comment on My refurbished ThinkPad (L390 Yoga) came with wrong rubber feet (too thick) not allowing it to turn into tablet mode. 7 months ago:
I have an L390 Yoga (i7) and these feet are indeed way too large.
The device is painful to use even with the correct feet, though - at least if you’re using Windows. It’s constantly overheating, because the cooling system is just reused from the L380 and can’t handle the heat of my i7 8565U processor. But hey - at least the marketing people where able to put “4.6GHz” into the specs.
I have to undervolt the CPU to make it run cool and prevent thermal throttling, which is not possible anymore if you’re running a current Windows version.
That thing is probably the last Thinkpad I’ve ever bought, to be honest.
