Forget the shitposting, is it actually any good yet? Is it at least good enough for casual development and sshing into other systems?
>>
>>57164974
It is actually really good. They have wireless now, which works perfectly on my T60.
What I'm actually excited about though is that they're porting it to ARM, which will be fucking amazing.

>>57165030
What's so exciting about that? For SBC use?

I'm trying to move a motherboard on one laptop to another, identicle laptop. I got down to this cord, does anyone know if you can safely remove this type of cord and plug it back in without breaking it? It's different from all the others connected to the motherboard in terms of looks and disconnection i guess.
I have no idea what im doing

OBVIOUSLY it's final production hardware and software and this is definitely going to happen for sure on the actual console. And it's DEFINITELY being rendered on what is probably an empty shell mockup and not just a post-processed video. Which is CLEARLY not whats going on in this shot where the camera is totally still at a completely awkward angle that would ordinarily result in reflections and very dim displays if it were an actual screen and not something added in Adobe Premiere for presentation's purpose.
In /v/, someone even pointed out that the sports title they featured was a year and some change old, and probably pulled from a WiiU or something.
And Bethesda also confirmed that Skyrim is not confirmed for the Nintendo Switch, which entirely means that they provided video/clips for the promo...

Now that consoles are x86 too, why aren't games written in assembly for ultimate maximum settings 60 fps 1080p on both desktop and console?
Think of the performance gains!

Apart from how it would take 100x as long, no reason.
>>
>>57164490
Because 98% of people can't write faster assembly than a compiler and it will take them 50 times longer to do it.
>>

>Now that consoles are x86 too, why aren't games written in assembly
For the same reasons they weren't written in assembly before they were x86? I mean, what the hell does the ISA have to do with it?

Ok that keyboard isn't the best example. I'm just fucking sick of keyboards I like not having a proper UK style enter key. I'd really like one of pic related to control a TV connected computer from my lap for instance, but they don't seem to make a British style one.
>>
>>57164360
yours is bigger vertically, ours is bigger horizontally. I rather like the US layout since it means I don't have to reach as far over with my pinky to hit enter.
What >>57164383 said about lshift is also true.
The thing that pisses me off is that layouts from all countries continue to waste prime real estate on a literally useless key. I speak, of course, of caps lock. Anything else on that key would be an improvement.

What is a current good ultrabook to buy? Are there any good in sight to be sold within the next months?
I mainly need it for development, and the occasational browsing, playing a weaker game and that kind of stuff I have a decent laptop at the moment, but I need something with battery life that I can take somewhere and do not need to plug into the wall for at least 6 hours (and not only under the best conditions). I'd like to dual boot win10 / ubuntu or some kind of Linux generally, optionally I could just run win10 and virtualize Linux.
I am kind of playing with the thought of getting a Lenovo T460s with an i7, 20 GB RAM and the 1 TB NVMe SSD.
I also read about the Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition coming up in a renewed model soon, not sure if that's worth it.
Any experiences to share?

If you asked me when was the last time Chrome crashed on me, I'd tell you I couldn't remember.
If you asked me when was the last time Firefox crashed on me, I'd tell you five minutes ago.
If you asked me how many times Firefox crashed on me this year, I'd tell you that I lost count.

do you actually care what people think around you?
for me it's irritating and i can't properly focus this way.
i just make use of that opportunity to be productive, rather than idling around waiting for the train to get me from a to b
