I have a second hand surface still running windows that I draw on. With a paper like screen protector I find it quite pleasant. Mines a 6 I think, runs Krita great I imagine it'd be even better if I ditched windows bloat.

I finally got my wife to stop frequenting them with a moka pot and some flavored syrups. Homemade is comparable in flavor, bit less fat and sugar, and $1-2 per cup all in.

I use a Kingrinder, $50-100, milk warmer/frother, $30, moka pot, $30, and light roast Ethiopian beans. I just order in a big bag of beans for pour over and use the same for other drinks out of convenience. I've had cheap espresso makers before and the moka pot is close enough for mixed drinks.

On Subaru and CVTs, I hate most modern automatic transmissions due to the rough shift and indecision but the Subaru CVT ain't bad at all.

Yup, in the office we regularly hire engineers and scientists with a bachelor's, I've never seen anyone even care what tier of bachelor's. Some people go on to get licensed or a master's on the company dime but we also have lots of unlicensed never going back to school people in very technical demanding and high ranking positions.

I'm just a geologist with a bachelor's and am regularly supervising and training people with engineering PhDs. My work place quickly becomes task specific and degrees are worth less than years in the field a lot of the time, your mileage may vary.

I'm running a rog ally and the latest update has changed sleep from hit and miss to consistently good. I also bought it because the price was 1/2 of a comparable laptop(secondhand market) so handheld form factor wasn't a selling point to me.

I like my kingrinder, quick and consistent. It is manual but mine came with parts to hook up a drill if one doesn't like manual.

I picked up a 2080 super, ryzen 3600, motherboard, and 32 gigabytes of RAM 1.5 years ago for under $400 used. I already case, PSU, and SSDs so close to your premise.

Both! Best advice since there's a couple different types of stones is to drink more water.

I'm loving the game, about 18 hrs in. A lot of the complaints are a positive to the right people like system tutorials are "hey this exists, have fun" rather than making you sit through long explanations, you can ignore tons of content if you want. Don't want to do outposts that's fine buy or mine yourself, don't wanna build a ship buy a premade. The game is a Bethesda RPG with a lot of area separate from the main quest, if you wanna explore there's 1000 planets, if not there's a handful of really cool ones the quests lead you to.

Performance wise she's a hungry game. I'm at recommended and I get 50-70 fps, 1080p, medium settings, FSR 2 for most spots. Even when it dips into the 30s I only notice because I have an overlay counter. Few minor bugs and hiccups. If you liked Elder Scrolls or Fallout check it out. Some people will love it for years to come, others will hate it with a passion.
