Lol,

Batteries are perfect for load balancing.

Please, know your facts

Total is $398 bundle with lower end fan. It is comparable.

The choice will be driven by hardware characteristics for me. Power vs performance questions. If performance is roughly the same, then I will prefer lower power consumption.

Reaction to this post is quite telling of audience.

A few years from now we may be seeing US tariffs on these just like EVs today.

China is developing fast and it took US trade war seriously.

A couple generations don’t mean much anymore.

Performance gains have been slow.

I’d rather understand where exactly is its performance in comparison to AMD and Intel.

Then I can make a call if it is worth it.

After all there’s plenty of Raspberry Pi level performance and people are happy with it as long as price is right.

Does it run Linux?

Give us some links for combo of motherboard, CPU and fan. I assume it needs a fan.

Russians predicted this before special military operation.

For example, Putin mentions this outcome many years ago, if Russia decides to take on Ukraine.

Someone explained it to me this way:

If knife is a newest feature, then

• cutting edge has newest features
• bleeding edge bleeds from knife cuts, because it doesn’t have the newest features.

Any snapshot distribution by definition is on bleeding edge.

Any rolling release is by definition on the cutting edge.

I had sluggish experience with SUSE. Updates were slow. Installation was very slow.

Starting apps was not as snappy.

Promise of snapshots was great, but not unique.

Overall slower than my regular distro experience killed it for me.

I simply asked myself: will it bug me every time I use the laptop? The answer was yes, and decided to end it.
