I got mine 2 (or shit, is it 3 now) years ago - 10/10 best laptop purchase in a long while.

GPD have done well for themselves in the small screen laptop space!

I think you qualify as undead now?

2 short of true headline greatness.

1. Shift over to open source.
2. Invest 25–50% of what you currently pay for proprietary software into helping maintain and enhance open source software.
3. Enjoy the economic benefits well maintained free software brings to every aspect of your digital infrastructure at no extra cost.

Quality article - thanks for sharing!

I used to make (very bad) ASCII art as a hobby during my PhD (it’s good for relaxing), and a lot of the “smoothing” I learned but I think the method for good contrast would have really helped back then!

What they think these tip lines will give: “My professor is dangerously woke, he used someone’s pronouns today and is clearly some kind of terrorist”

What they’ll actually get: about 1000 variations of “This course is too hard; I shouldn’t have to attend the classes to pass”

Source: I teach at a university and we get a few if these every year; “ghosts” who think that paying a fee magically entitles them to a passing grade regardless of the quality of work they submit.

Windows on an external drive isn’t officially supported if I remember right. Your screenshot seems to support that.

Honestly, I’d be leery of installing an OS on an external drive as they tend not to age well with heavy use.

Are you trying to necro a laptop with a dead drive? If so, depending on the model, it might just be worth replacing the internal drive so then you can go ahead with your dual boot plan.

Also, quick tip, install windows, then disable fast startup in windows, then disable safeboot in your bios. Otherwise, when it comes time to install mint, you might hit issues with windows saying “NO, MY DRIVE”.

If you install mint and get no grub screen, just boot mint with your live usb and look up repairing grub - should be nice and easy.

Fish eye is another
