It’s mostly when you’re trying to optimize for power on a non standard distro. By default, they’re kinda a hog power but you can sorta turn off the gpu when not in use, it’s just fininky because Nvidia doesn’t want open source drivers that can go that low level. Thankfully don’t have to worry about it anymore after getting a non-Nvidia laptop for my latest daily.

Hey, hey, hey: Mushrooms before acid (although honestly trying to make friends with shared interests is probably the best idea).

I mean, for a phone yeah, but a small, relatively cheap waterproof device with a battery under a watt will probably start having issues at 5 years, more likely much before that. Waterproofing something that small will probably not be easy after replacing the battery, so while you probably will be able to eventually, it probably will be a little more fragile afterwards. I’ve got a fitbit, and I’ve seen the videos of replacing the 0.25 watt battery, would for sure doubt it’s water resistance afterwards, probably easier to replace.

Yep. And mazda has physical climate button/knobs, with a physical dial to control the infotainment (it’s pretty convenient, if a bit of an older design on most of their vehicles).
