What is the battery life like on Win10?

I whitelist certain websites.

>>57009693
Around the same.

>>57009705
Both websites are shit in their own way.

>>57009693
13 hours.

The Kaby Lake XPS 13 just came out and it's supposed to get 21 hours on a single charge.

>Hurr Linux has greatly battery life

>>57009732
I still get around 8 hours of actual work, 4 if it's graphical stuff.

>>57009725
The XPS15 lets you change RAM and lets you pick between a secundary 2.5" drive or more battery. It's the best work laptop I can think of.

Hes not saying that you shouldn't use an ad blocker, he's saying that you're using a trash ad blocker when superior ones exist.

>>57009763
Like which? I only know of adblock. What are the others better at?
>inb4 at blocking ads

>>57009760
Can't wait for the XPS 15 with GTX 1060 to come out, it would be the ultimate laptop.

And don't listen to the "ublock origin only hides at and doesnt block them at a network level" meme. This has been proven wrong here https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Does-uBlock-block-ads-or-just-hide-them%3F, and coincidently when shown this link the fags just reply with "uhide :D" or "gorshill"

Oh so the HTML element itself doesn't get downloaded from the GET?

I wouldn't say Linux has horrible battery life, but it does seem like you lose like an hour or so compared to the OEM Windows install.

>>57009883
I'm not entirely sure how big the effect of powertop is, but after applying it the battery life is the same (from memory, I purged all things Microsoft from this).

>>57009892
This is a work laptop, I prefer having bloat than lacking features.
>kill yourself for not using what I use

>>57009894
But that's wrong

So what if I can't actually do anything with it, the estimated battery life is much more important!

>>57009909
But I can do so many things. Last night I watched a movie in bed with my boyfriend.

did ypu install TLP ? made a big difference with debian + cinnamon on my mac air

>>57010072
I can smell insecurity even here.

>>57010087
I use powertop. You have to pick one or the other, and I went with the Intel one, can't really remember why.

>>57009659
>muh werks on my machine :^)
Last time I tried, Linux couldn't activate low power states on mobile Skylake processors. Absolutely shit battery life on my laptop

Even with TLP installed and configured, I get better battery life on Windows 7 with my T420.

sudo apt-get install tlp tlp-rdw
