mmh imo all the main manifacturers cheaps us out in the laptop category (unless you go into the expensive side i guess). There's always some compromise somewhere :/

But to be fair, i'm not some reviewer and haven't seen all that the land of laptops has to offer. My advice would be to go looking at different youtube reviews on different channels too.

In my experience:

Microsoft devices while not too good on repairability (hard to open) are often solid and reliable, they tend to be able to keep up with the time. Ex: my surface pro 4 is still used and is surprisingly keeping up. I'd say the same on the surface laptop side. They are more work oriented and less for gaming sadly.

Asus has a nice gaming oriented catalog, but they feel cheap material wise. I've got the ROG Flow Z13 tablet and it's amazing the amount of power they managed to put in there, the casing is all metal so my previous statement doesn't apply to this one, but the screen is plastic(?) and has some damage already. I've use a Strix laptop a few times and that's where i found the quality lacking.

I used to think HP was a brand to avoid, but with the ones we ship out, they seem to be decent. I have yet to use it.

I had an Acer aspire that had a pentium in it, probably got it around 2008-10. Used to game on it until it overheated itself off, and rinse repeat many times. Great laptop for everyday use, suprisingly still running to this day. I'd recommend for people who dont want to get a chromebook, as some form of step up.

I've no experience with other brands.

They better be repairable, 2-3 in 10 of them will need it out of the box. smh Lenovo i used to have better expectations of you.

For the curious: My work has us get batches of them, some have camera issues, others simply don't turn on.

I think note 1 answers your question (so office 365 proPlus)

update: i dont see anything about copilot on the MS site for that plan, seems it might not be fully released yet (also it's for MS 365 not office 365? love the naming scheme ms thanks for that /s)

Think that'll push the piracy scene to come out with some patch like the reVanced group? Cuz that'd be nice

I mean yea, but the post is asking about the PC version

I dont have the game installed to test it but:

Look into the cs.rin forums for "Goldberg Socialclub Emu", I think Darck used goldberg's emu but it might have been updated since.

You can find the forum link in the megathread listed in the sidebar here. In the post there is a zip file with the goldberg gta4 files, you should be able to click and drag them to the same folder as the gta exe.

Hope this fixes it

Nah m8 you throw the article link you posted into the second input field on archive.is and if it doesn't find any you can put it in the first input field and it will scrape the webpage for everyone

Here i did it with your article: https://archive.ph/iVekq (huh seems fitz above already did it, but we used a different article link, here's hopping archive has good dedup filters)

True, I prefer having a dedicated download manager, also it's got a remote web interface so I can have the download on my server

https://jdownloader.org/jdownloader2

This site should be good, I refered to the FMHY list (Insanely useful & extensive list of curated links). Also i recognize this site from when i last had to download it.

I use RD with Jdownloader2 to get premium dl speeds, as it removes the worries of a dl hanging due to some premium bs

(Also I noticed https://qiwi.gg/ getting more popular, fast speeds, no limits it seems. Anyone have something to say about it?)

by the time i retire i'm hoping we perfect brain interfaces (which looking at what we currently have isn't too far-fetched)
