Vibration is a pretty big one

Use of pepper spray is typically appropriate in self defense, so in response to a threat of physical violence.

I didn’t see a clear threat of physical violence in the video.

Camera guy probably landed himself an assault charge with that escalation.

I don’t understand why you were downvoted for asking this question. I’ve literally watched techs cause this damage by trying to open the lid with the back cover screws removed.

Most laptops have at least one screw on each side that goes through both the back cover and the hinge. If the hinge is normally affixed with 3 screws and you open the lid with one missing, each mount is taking on that extra stress.

Best practice is to reinstall those screws before opening the lid with the back cover removed.

Got one for my partner during the last refurb restock. It was perfect for Stardew and other small indies, which is all they cared to play.

Not long after, I upgraded my deck to 2TB, they inherited the 512GB SSD, everybody won.

Right now, you can get a 64GB deck and 1TB M.2 2230 SSD for $15 more than the 512GB LCD is on sale for.

Discord has evolved from more or less being a series of chatrooms (like IRC) to having “threads” that work a lot like how a forum would typically be used.

In the repair community, a lot of conversation about component level repair has moved to Discord channels. Sites like badcaps.net or the Rossmann group forums have comparatively low usage. Nested away in Discord, this information doesn’t show up in search engine results and can’t be archived by web crawlers. When a Discord server is deleted or made private, that information is forever lost.

The one I have been using successfully for the last 2+ years is made by “Carlinkit”

Every now and then, it will take a long time or outright fail to pair, requiring that I power cycle it. Happens maybe every 2-3 weeks, I average 2-4 pairings per day.

Otherwise, the experience is mostly seamless.

Was the gameplay video I stumbled across somewhere not legitimate?

Working in IT Support, the fact that Outlook refers to webmail and two distinct email clients makes understanding user’s problems a nightmare.

useless

pre-7th gen i5’s

I’ve got systems with second and third gen i5s that are handling Windows 10 just fine, seems like what the school really needs is some SSDs.

Linux would definitely run better, so that’s worth it too.

If this school is heavily embedded im the Google ecosystem, ChromeOS Flex is an option. FydeOS is similar but without the Google Account requirement.

This is only true of the celery you find in grocery stores.

Grow some in your garden, you’re in for a world of flavor you never knew existed

Not to mention data recovery

Interesting timing, these practices are about to be super illegal under Oregon’s SB1596 right to repair bill that just passed
