| tomreyn | TJ-: maybe you should find some other buttons to debug in bed. :-P | 19:28 |
| TJ- | tomreyn: !! | 19:28 |
| tomreyn | we're (especially now) going OT in #ubuntu, so i switched over here | 19:29 |
| TJ- | tomreyn: then the duvet could fall out of its cover :D | 19:29 |
| tomreyn | oh yes that sounds too dangerous | 19:29 |
| daftykins | you could be trapped for hours going in to investigate :) | 19:30 |
| daftykins | TJ-: \o hope you're well, i was just looking at your (almost) FDE guide recently, to use for creating some ubuntu server VMs for a friend's business | 19:30 |
| tomreyn | i have a hp laptop i run 20.04 on, which has a touchpad which i use occasionally, but this system has suspend issues of its own, so that's not useful input to your question | 19:31 |
| Bashing-om | TJ-: Updated touch recognizer of value " https://fossbytes.com/touchegg-2-0-0-released-a-linux-multi-touch-gesture-recognizer-app/ >> A Linux Multi-Touch Gesture Recognizer App ? | 19:32 |
| tomreyn | it even gets stuck when i connect or disconnect or just power on/off the external monitor during uefi startup (pre-boot, i think) | 19:32 |
| TJ- | tomreyn: ouch! We've got Thinkpad E495s with AMD Ryzen 7s; so far been really good with no problems | 19:33 |
| tomreyn | aaw lovely | 19:36 |
| tomreyn | i didn't get a say in what was being bought, as you can tell by the brand name | 19:36 |
| tomreyn | 1600 eur for... crap | 19:37 |
| daftykins | :( | 19:37 |
| tomreyn | 400 of those probably went into the hipster uefi additions | 19:38 |
| tomreyn | now super secure because we have all kind of totally awesome sekuriti software running in ring -2 | 19:39 |
| TJ- | ouch! we only paid £425 each for 6 E495s in February. Once Covid hit and demand for laptops shot up they doubled in price | 19:39 |
| daftykins | pesky scalpers | 19:40 |
| tomreyn | mine was a standard (pre corona) retail price, but they probably got 10 or 20% off. | 19:41 |
| TJ- | That is the Lenovo price :) We got in when AMD were still offering rebates to buy Ryzen 7 mobile devices | 19:41 |
| tomreyn | this lenovo price is indeed reaaally cheap if you compare to intel models | 19:42 |
| TJ- | we went for no OS, 32GB RAM, 477GB NVME, full-HD | 19:44 |
| tomreyn | https://www.notebookcheck.net/Lenovo-ThinkPad-E495-Laptop-Review-Inexpensive-office-device-with-a-lot-of-power-but-without-keyboard-illumination.434877.0.html | 19:44 |
| tomreyn | maybe you got the campus model | 19:44 |
| tomreyn | did you have problems with the gpu initially? | 19:45 |
| Bashing-om | UWN: On the streets: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue651 :D | 19:46 |
| TJ- | No, no problems whatever | 19:46 |
| TJ- | put 20.04 alpha/beta on them from the start | 19:46 |
| tomreyn | oh ok | 19:47 |
| tomreyn | oh the 's' is the campus model, right? students? | 19:47 |
| TJ- | not sure... don't think there was that distinction when we ordered | 19:50 |
| daftykins | usually the s's in the other ranges are slightly slimmer variants with some sacrifices | 19:50 |
| tomreyn | it has an rj-45, usb-c + usb-a v3.1, hdmi 1.4b. all you need. | 19:50 |
| tomreyn | oh could be slim as well | 19:51 |
| TJ- | my main aim was to buy something with AMD not Intel CPUs, and wanted latest Ryzen mobile | 19:52 |
| TJ- | They're a bit plastic-y and we're about to do a warranty claim on some that appear to becoming banana shaped but we've not had problems in performance | 19:53 |
| tomreyn | oh hehe | 19:53 |
| TJ- | mainly because my apprentice, Cal, doesn't like that the corner of his screen when 'black' has a white tinge unless you press the bezel :D | 19:55 |
| tomreyn | this sounds like decomposing-too-early | 20:00 |
| TJ- | looks like poor chassis design allowing the case to flex | 20:02 |
| daftykins | kinda what i'd expect of a value series :> | 20:06 |

| guiverc | :) looks like I've new wallpapers being installed ! | 23:40 |
| Maik | groovy? | 23:40 |
| guiverc | yeah.. | 23:40 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: \o/ eye candy :D | 23:40 |
| Maik | cool | 23:40 |
| Maik | saw the post by OMG!Ubuntu earlier today | 23:41 |
| guiverc | :) | 23:43 |
| Maik | i'm almost tempted to do as i did in the past, instead of sticking to LTS releases just follow and install every new version that comes out. | 23:43 |
| guiverc | As I'm heavily testing (esp. Lubuntu), it just makes sense for me to be on dev cycle... I try and last a week before I bump my release, I got ~26 hours on stable focal; so didn't do well that time | 23:46 |
