    My advice is to generally opt for integrated on mobile, unless you absolutely need them. I did on my last computer (training ml models can often be sped up with Cuda cores), but the trade off was it breaking three times when updating my Nvidia drivers (had to chroot in an manually update, huge pain to deal with), so I specifically went away from Nvidia drivers on my latest laptop.

    It’s mostly when you’re trying to optimize for power on a non standard distro. By default, they’re kinda a power hog but you can sorta turn off the gpu when not in use, it’s just fininky because Nvidia doesn’t want open source drivers that can go that low level. Thankfully don’t have to worry about it anymore after getting a non-Nvidia laptop for my latest daily.






  • I mean, for a phone yeah, but a small, relatively cheap waterproof device with a battery under a watt will probably start having issues at 5 years, more likely much before that. Waterproofing something that small will probably not be easy after replacing the battery, so while you probably will be able to eventually, it probably will be a little more fragile afterwards. I’ve got a fitbit, and I’ve seen the videos of replacing the 0.25 watt battery, would for sure doubt it’s water resistance afterwards, probably easier to replace.

    Depends on the type of shoe, and manufacturers. Louis Vuitton generally use better materials, but often the knock offs aren’t too much worse, similar with a lot of fashion shoes. That is excepting stuff like traditional dress shoes, which often do require a skilled craftsman to make. The most pronounced difference however, is generally in work boots. Expensive work boots are usually expensive because they use better materials and longer lasting designs. Knockoffs usually don’t last very long in comparison because they don’t use good materials and skim in areas that affect longevity.

    Then maybe Harris and her team should have listened to some feedback about their widely unpopular stance that seemed to somewhat equate them with the Republicans during an election which they absolutely couldn’t afford to be seen as remotely similar to republicans.

    It would be in theory, but mostly it’s just spread around as how any protest against Israel cost the democrats the US election (despite how it was considered widely unpopular to support Israel’s genocide by most democrats).
