In that case, count my recommendation as a framework. I loved my 13” 11th gen (I was in wave 3 initial ordering) when I was using it mostly daily. The battery was not great but did improve over the first year as BIOS updates rolled out. I retired that machine as a laptop by 3D printing their mainboard case and jamming all the internals inside. Currently using it as a network appliance but the case I printed did not have room for the battery. I’m gonna do that later so it has its own “UPS” so to speak. For now it’s on my makeshift stack of machines that I call a homelab and it powers several network services and runs Debian. I did not run Linux on it while it was a laptop however so I’m not able to provide data on its hibernation/sleep reliability or WiFi/ battery performance.

Would a Steam Deck be a viable option? Built for gaming, functions well when using a dock (the official one is really nice).

astrsk@kbin.socialto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•A burger being "100% Beef" is not a good thing4·1 year agoI love a good meatloaf sandwich. Take a couple slices from meatloaf dinner and put em in the fridge overnight. Next day pull out a frying pan on high and throw those suckers on. Get a good crispy sear on each side and make sure it’s heated through. If it’s too dried out, learn to make better meatloaf first but also give it a steaming with a splash of water and a lid. Throw it on a warmed bun with whatever toppings. Classic American meatloaf goes well with ketchup or steak sauce. Can even add grilled onions or bacon.

The test stand is likely undamaged (In anysignificant way at least) and it was just an engine test of likely raptor 2 design. This has nothing to do with IFT4 or starbase as far as we can tell.

Right, well testdisk has worked wonders in the past for me. It might worth a try especially if this is a spinning rust drive. It has helped me recover broken partitions and lost files so if you know where you’re looking you just might have a chance. I’m no expert but it seems like one of your last options with all the info provided. Best of luck!
astrsk@kbin.socialto Science@beehaw.org•“Nothing” doesn’t exist. Instead, there is “quantum foam”1·1 year agoShrodinger’s cat wasn’t some simplified lesson for the layman. It wasn’t even an explanation. It was a commentary about the quantum model itself and how the current state of the model is laughably incomplete and unable to adequately answer or predict anything of value (yet). It wasn’t until more recently that some Newtonian physics might be explainable as emergent properties of quantum mechanics, but we are still a long ways away from a unified or blurred model.

But admittedly it makes as much sense as the current common explanation of brain cleaning during sleep.
What are the chances the header is stored in the partition map? Could you use testdisk to try and recover the old partition map and its data?
screen2gif. Peek is really good on the capturing side but it lacks all the editing tools like resizing, changing speed of each frame, removing specific or ranges of frames, inserting frames, drawing on frames, and of course exporting in different formats with very good compression options. I really miss being able to fine tune my gifs without having to open multiple tools or scripts.

Yup, it really depends on if you want to specifically get experience with CAD or have a working thing in your hand. Blender is perfectly capable of working in scale and is how I’ve designed / printed anything custom with perfect results.
Dealbreaker for me. Such a shame because I’m in the market for a small hatchback-like EV, being a sonic owner and all.
