Better than them pulling 300W and blowing up tbh

Gaming laptops usually have atrocious battery life, especially ones with Intel i9s and comparatively weak GPUs. Means they put the whole budget of the laptop into the CPU and nothing else.
Whenever you have applications were implementations are plentiful the only real differentiation you can do without creating a different user experience is the technologies used to develop it. The importance of which in people's perspective is several things, mostly supporting technologies they like and want to see grow and possibly being skilled in the underlying technologies to actually contribute back.
Certain technologies are also just hot garbage, I swear to God if I have to install another electron app for some messaging platform I will shit myself.
And you guessed it, they copied that ignored-annotation, too, complete with the comment "//TODO currently broken". The test they implemented was not run, not even once.
Junior dev here, this is the kind of stuff that is supposed to prompt you to ask questions. Literally one slack message when you see it, and give it a few hours for whenever you have time to see it and respond. I know it's annoying messaging y'all with stuff but... C'mon you gotta do it sometimes, especially if it's something you can reasonably predict will come up in review or is a simple question that doesn't require a lot of time to answer.
Honestly use a program like fastfetch, it's a CLI app.
Otherwise, from memory, Mission Center might show it
It's actually being rumored that there's also a bug in the Windows scheduler that's harming performance as well
They put in the absolute minimum amount of resources for it.
It's also littered with bugs as the ZLUDA project has noted
Who would've thunk that big, for profit, tech companies don't care about us :T
Kinda, we're all a little confused here.

Modem hardware.
The default kernel Mint has installed isn't new enough to support cards like the 7900 XT. Though this can be fixed by updating the kernel using Mint's kernel version utility
*I get a kick from not having any professional workloads that require GPU compute
Fixed that for you.
As long as the drive the swap is on is an SSD, yeah absolutely
Nah, it's because $400 for a GPU enclosure is insane, at that rate I can just get the mid-range GPU built in with the regular price of the laptop
Correction: modern C++ is pretty sweet.
Chances are if you're working on C++ in a professional setting it's not modern C++ :(
I would hardly consider high refresh rate monitors to be exotic. They're quite common.
I wonder what distros they tried though. Considering this is a thread on Nobara I wouldn't be surprised if they had issues with the variety of gaming distros available
