I would get a laptop as well in that situation. Just make sure it is one that supports setting the charging threshold. Having it on all the time will kill the battery quickly if it keeps charging from 95 to 100%. It’s much better to keep it below 80%, which should still give enough “UPS time”.
The battery will also not electrically protect the motherboard from voltage swings. So get a good power adapter that can handle the voltages.
- Comment on Five Men Convicted of Operating Massive, Illegal Streaming Service That Allegedly Had More Content Than Netflix, Hulu, Vudu and Prime Video Combined 1 week ago:
If they had more content on offer than the big legal streaming services combined, should that not tell us something about the quality of legal offers?

So, does it „import“ the photos to the cloud immediately?

Proper search is for people who know what they are doing. Translation is probably there to get more traffic from google

It was pretty bad in the beginning. I suppose they have improved it.
- Comment on More and more people are ditching carrier roaming in favor of travel eSIMs 2 months ago:
IMO they should have just made any roaming on non-EU-terms strictly opt-in. It’s madness that you can get billed ridiculous amounts of money just for being too close to a border or ship.

- Comment on COVID: German man vaccinated 217 times had no side effects 3 months ago:
Who says that it is allowed? It is however very easy to do as long as you have statutory health insurance. You just book an appointment with a doctor or a pharmacy that does vaccinations, give them your insurance card and get the vaccination for free. Again and again. Nobody will (or even can) check your previous vaccinations. All they can do is ask the patient.
After the vaccination they will bill the insurance, which can take months. Then someone or most likely some fraud detection system at the insurance company has to notice that something strange is going on. And since the vaccine is cheap and not a controlled substance it will probably take quite a few vaccinations to trigger a review. And even then they can not prevent further vaccinations. The only way would be to cancel your insurance entirely, which I am not even sure they are allowed to do.

- Comment on Apple Develops Breakthrough Method for Running LLMs on iPhones 6 months ago:
Well, if that commenter had more than just a vague idea of caching and/or swapping, they would know that the right algorithm can make or break performance.
That paper is not “we invented caching”, but “this is how we make some certain models work well despite constraints imposed by RAM and flash storage.”
It’s a worthy job for an engineer or researcher. Not quite as innovative as the invention of the wheel, but still enough to write a paper on (and read it, if you can manage to understand it).
- Comment on Ubiquiti Users Somehow Being Fed Access to Strangers' Security Cameras 6 months ago:
If you want cheap and good cameras: Some Annke cameras like the C800 are rebranded Hikvision models. Add a NVR like Frigate and you have a cheap and powerful local surveillance system.

Nah, keep the free games. All they need to do to gain serious market share is to use the key store money laundering economy as well.

Fair enough. Give me a clean windows without ads, auto installs from the store, telemetry and other data theft, Cortana/copilot/clippy, onedrive, edge, teams, Microsoft account and nag screens and I will gladly pay 1€ per month. Otherwise, Linux it is.
