Yeah I've been moving stuff into a vanilla config, only thing stopping me from finally making the move is i'm too used to evil-mode and I want to stop using it. So every time I try to use my config I can barely move the cursor when editing.

Been watching Prot's videos on mark/register and also looking into using avy to do more.

There's literally nothing wrong with evil mode.

Consider switching careers?
Leetcode isn't tedious if you're actually good and enjoy coding.
If you see it as a chore, then, well, being in software is definitely not for you. Which is great, I don't want to keep working with retards like you.

Do cooling systems "age"?
My 10 year old laptop's fans are constantly on and it's very loud even at moderate load. Did I just not care in the past or is it possible for cooling to just be worse over time?
(yes I recently swapped heatpaste and cleaned the fans)

>>107658046
>2nd gen
Those are rough to use today. 3rd gen is the minimum, 4th is comfortable.
And that with linux, if you use windows then get the newest possible with the most memory you can possibly afford.

>>107658046
do you have any specific grievance?
when you don't have an urgent need, you can often score great used deals by waiting a bit

>>107665390
Every moving part is susceptible to mechanical wear. The fan bearing can go bad, the symptom is that it doesn't spin smoothly and freely as it should and it draws more current as a result of that added load (potentially running at a reduced speed if it can't get enough power for that).
I've saved desk fan bearings before by just redoing the grease, but once the grease goes bad the ball bearings can start tearing at their tracks and scratching it, so you gotta catch it early to save like that. Maybe worth it for computer fans just for testing purposes, if it starts working as it should after that, then you know the fan is bad. Spray grease would work fine for that test. Then you buy a new fan.
Heat pipes, dissipator fins and whatnot can only corrode depending on the environment. Otherwise they don't age.

I have a E540 thinkpad, did i fuck up? guys

Just saying that doesn't really mean anything. You can say that in any conversation and it would have the same effect.

Like just taking that at face value its pretty strange to make such an assertive generalization about someone. Like I'm making claims about you and the other people, but they are very specific claims in response to specific behaviors. and not just a overused generalization.

Just taking it at the value of trying to be an insult it really is ineffective because its obv just trying to be an insult with nothing backing it.

So either way I don't really see what this reply achieved and its interesting to think you thought it would achieved anything.

>>107665809
I see you have mentally tapped out of the interaction and can no longer form novel replies.

You know there is a self awareness angle you could definitely play, but I am not confident you would be able to actually thread it all together.

How shitty is snapdragon on surface pros? I need a tablet and I want one that allows me to read VNs in bed, so was looking at the intel OLED surface cheapest model.

either it's mac formatted or Windows is doing its usual bullshit where it randomly doesn't auto assign a drive letter
right-click on the 57gb partition in disk management, click "change drive letter and paths", click "add" and pick any letter you want
if that's not available then it's formatted for mac
