Most laptops that ship with windows 10 are capable of running 11. I recommend finding out if the schools provides a license. When I was attending Phoenix online a couple years ago they supplied me with a windows 10 education license through Microsoft.

Wow I feel a little stupid, thanks friend.

Excuse my ignorance but who is wes Davis and why is he so stupid?

That google play HTC m8 was chefs kiss, I also loved the m8 for windows.

This guy gets it. No need to gatekeep either way you let it hang.

I believe an others have said a nice 1 or 2tb SSD that is PCI based should help out. Picking up an additional 16GB of ram isn’t necessary but neither is any of this and would likely let your system last even longer. There’s also a good chance your b450 motherboard supports newer x3d variants of the 5000 series ryzen CPUs through a BIOS upgrade. If you have a microcenter you can try to snag one of the 5600x3d processors or snag a used 5800x3d or maybe one on sale.

I’m in an interesting camp because I mainly reside in apple land, except for my desktop and tablet. I have the galaxy tab s7 plus and that thing is all I could ask for out of a tablet. As a media consumption device it does one thing well and that’s emulation. I love using an 8bitdo controller with it too.

Sadly this is how I feel too.

I assume they can do this and I think they plan on something like it (pretty sure I heard this from Mishaal Rahman on a podcast). But yeah the way pixel devices come apart is way more granular which is a good thing but can end up in more issues from things breaking. Google doesn’t have the best rack record with build quality unfortunately.

I’d like to piggy back in this. I worked for Asurion and Assurant Both are authorized for Google in warranty and insurance repairs. They have to have your device factory reset. Google claims this is a security measure which it is to a degree but it’s mostly because the pixel diagnostic suite requires full access to the biometrics on the device.

Fellow Michigander here. I’m located towards Flint in Mount Morris and I can agree that public transportation is a joke. Where I live it isn’t as feasible either, as there is more rural homes.

Omg yes! I remember the uh oh button and the explosion that would clear your page.

Did you ever use windows phone by chance? It was so beautiful and surprisingly easy to navigate. It was very inspired by the Zune design language.

Thank you for unlocking that memory. I remember using yahoo music and the draw program to make video projects.

Dude! That dinosaur game where you collect eggs?

I have no idea, I feel like the screen would be tough as it’s pressed with glass and the keyboard is riveted in I believe. It would probably be more doable for older iBooks and MacBooks that are plastic.

I know it’s off topic but I’ve always thought it would be cool to put a MacBook into a transparent plastic shell.

This was me! I remember being in 3rd grade at a school with old technology. Using the Mac SE? The monochrome one with an external floppy drive. The next year I went to a new school and all the computers were the iMacs that had all the fun colors. The school ordered teal and pink ones. I still adore that clear and color matched keyboard with transparent dark grey keys.

I wish the zune community was this extensive, maybe it is? I loved the zune too, honestly didn’t get the tribalism towards one or the other. An og model zune with a massive battery and some flash would be very cool.

This is super awesome. I’ve always wanted to do like a 1tb personal music archive one with a huge battery. The enclosure makes this one extra special.
