I’ve been playing on my 7840U (integrated graphics) laptop, 1440x900 low settings and FSR averaged around 30fps in early game, so not great but playable

Yes and no, I couldn’t get stable frame rates on ps3 and it wasn’t enjoyable. Like my steam deck but it’s not the “end all be all”

I’d look at ryzen 7840U laptops, which should have similar gaming performance to the ROG Ally without paying a lot extra for a graphics card that may push you out of budget

I’ve been a CPA for a decade and don’t use a numpad, though I have to give credit to World of Warcraft for my ability to hit any number with ease. I’ve found you will be most efficient when you never have to leave home row with either hand, so learning to use a trackpoint also helps.

framework said they’re not working on a trackpoint so I feel like my hands are tied, Virgo sounds intriguing but isn’t available

Formal testing no, I could tell the case plate would get hot and my understanding is when the thermal mass stabilizes at a temp the fan would run as normal, so this adds a bit more mass but in a way that’s easier for the heat to passively dissipate

Nothing noticeable the heatsink weighs 15.5 grams

To me calls are more about efficiency, I prefer to have a call and talk through a complex issue for 15 min instead of needing 5+ back and forth emails over an afternoon to get everyone on the same page.

The “front page” experience of seeing general news I should be aware of is getting better but it’s harder to find active niche communities as expected, and I wish there was combined or less fracturing with communities, like having to choose whether to follow [email protected] or @lemmy.world since I would assume they’re somewhat redundant

I went big, mostly indie games I’ve wanted to try for awhile, mainly for playing on Steam Deck
