The problem I have is that this covers a very niche use case for me. I want it to be a tablet - lightweight etc, but not be constrained by mobile apps. I don’t want iOS’ version of lightroom, I want to have Darktable and Rawtherapee and a full fledged Visual Studio code, and well, you get the picture.
I don’t need a laptop because I also have a MacBook Pro - I went this way because Apple’s processors are too far ahead to ignore. So I can take AMD but my opinion is that intel’s offerings are just not competitive and I’m not buying any of them.
This leaves me with very few options - I’d be keen on buying an AMD-powered Ubuntu tablet but they don’t seem to exist.
And also my surface works perfectly fine, so spending a non-trivial amount of money and ewaste just to change OS seems rather silly. I’m sticking to that one for now.
My partner and I got invited to a wedding with a funky, everything-goes sort of dress code. For £50 we bought enough clothes for two blade-runner-esque outfits (we added some bits of our own so the ensemble wouldn’t look too cheap) and a big goose plushie (bigger than an individual pillow). The goose was £14 and not cheaply made at all! That one was genuinely a nice suprise.
