  • I don't disagree with you, but there are loads of technical issues for laptops in the range between 100W and 240W where it just isn't feasible to do it this way.

    240W is 48V and creates massive amounts of heat, which is difficult to deal with in a small laptop.
    You also run into problems with cable length if you want to connect to a dock and have that power with high bandwidth data transfer. Longer cables makes the bandwidth fall of a cliff, and the ones that follow the specs are insanely expensive.

    So I'd say yeah, it would be nice, but we're not there with the tech yet for more power hungry laptops, sadly.

  • Heat up is slow for me, around 20 minutes, but I have it connected to a smart plug so I can fire it up remotely before I want it.
    That's the downside of dual boilers and E61, I guess...

    Making the coffee itself is quite quick: Probably 3-4 minutes. That "slow" because I have the machine far away from the sink so I need to go back and forth a few times extra.
    If I have a nordic roast, I would probably have to add a minute on average just to clean up the potential spray.

  • Honestly, for the price and reliability, it's hard to beat them.
    Personally I am unhappy with what they are doing, but acknowledge that buying a "no-fuzz, just works"-printer was the only way I would ever be allowed to have one in the house.
    Now that the missus and kids love printing, it's easier for me to get another that is open source.
    If RatRig can get their Vcore 4 sorted, I'd love to grab one and have a project in the future.

  • Totally agree.

    The only rule I have in the kitchen is that there are no rules. Rules on what is allowed to mix in cooking are stupid.
    You like pasta with boiled eggs and Nutella? You do you!

    Taste is 100% subjective.

    I've tried it on burger a few times and it just doesn't fit me well, but on I always use it on pepperoni pizza and in my tacos.
    That or mango.

  • That would be a mirror of my setup. GMKtec N100 with 16 Gb of RAM doing all the heavy lifting with Jellyfin (transcoding), game servers, HomeAssistant and so forth. Not once has it had a hickup.

    It's a brilliant little thing for really very little money.

    Remember to activate C-states in BIOS to achieve the super low idle TDP people talk about, around 6-8W.

    Good luck on your journey!
