Tablets are more useful than laptops in 2017 and if you disagree, you're mentally challenged.
>more efficient hardware
>stay cooler
>less expensive
>much more portable
>more durable
>typically fanless
>doubles as a really nice e-book reader, including textbooks unlike a kindle
they literally make laptops more like tablets now because of these exact reasons. a 10" tablet with a nice case is way more practical than a laptop ever will. everything about a laptops design is a compromise.

Dell keyboards are in 3rd place.
First Model M
Second most things Logitech.
>>
>optical drives
>expandable storage
>powerful graphics chips
>better processors (4 x86 core+/xeon tier)
>can run things tablets can't (e.g. VMs, see above)
>larger screens
>more connectivity options (LAN, VGA/HDMI, more than 1 usb port)
>relatively easy to fix
>keyboard (doesn't take up half the screen)
>keyboard (physical)
Probably a lot of things I've missed.

You're right but the pic you posted is only good for playing angry birds.
Surface pros on the other hand are far better than a clunky laptop.

this is good news. I can definitely live with that, I'm used to my 7s26 taking hours and I had read somewhere that all of Seikos affordable movements were refinements on the 7s26 so I assumed they wouldn't work on that much

I want to use a webcam to remotely monitor my washing machine and dryer so I know when my clothes are done.
A normalfag would just skype call themselves, but I also do not want any traffic to go to some (((remote server)))
I've tried motion, but it doesn't appear to support sound. The same for cheese+VNC. So what would be the best software to accomplish this?
Both devices use GNU/Linux

There's gotta be some free software equivalent to Skype, try googling for something like that. Also install Gentoo.

I heard that shoving your feet into a shoe 2 or 3 times too small is pretty fun.
After a while, your feet permanently mold to the shape of the shoe and you can start putting on smaller shoes!

hey /g/, is there a de-facto best dvd burning software for windows?
mkvs, mp4s specifically don't work with the factory win7 burner, but it's a full length movie and if I can avoid long conversions that'd be ideal.

Fuck them, I call my MBA my laptop.
When I bought the thing I kept instinctively calling it my macbook, and thought that was fucked because shill shill shill. Had to force myself to just call it a laptop, after a month or so it was completely natural.At first people where all "Don't you mean your macbook?" and I was all "No, it's just my laptop", then they stopped asking, and eventually stopped calling their own devices macbooks.
