  1. Following my previous poking-fun at the Currys site, here's a fun wee sequel.

    Now that those baffling have been unveiled and are available to purchase, Currys made an oops and put a photo of the *wrong* laptop on the product description for their Googlebook 15.

  3. Going on with the craze of using a #Linux-based live sound FX setup with #Carla plugin host…

    … so I tried this on my #UbuntuStudio #Lenovo #Thinkpad #t470 but something on the system would periodically draw power. So I used the spare t470 and installed #Lubuntu on it and UbuntuStudio on top. Which sort of saves the little extra in performance. However, something still is in trouble with Carla which I have to figure out, I can't type into plugins (Lubuntu uses x11, not Wayland).

    The old #FocusriteSaffire runs at 128 samples buffer via #Pipewire / using Apples #Firewire / #Thunderbolt adapter chain.

    Even though I have this #Akai controller with a keyboard now, it's just too cool to use the #Steinberger #bass with the #RolandGK3 #MIDI pickup via the #Roland#GI20.

    This is certainly not the easy way to do things. I will see where this will take me…

    … at least I can sync config files and even sample packs for #DecentSampler with my studio desktop machine using Unison.

  6. There's a redesigned "thermal module" from Lenovo for an eye watering €200-€300, out of stock in most places.

    This includes the vapour chamber, which is however absolutely fine and I just need the fans.

    AliExpress has only the fans for a tenth of that price (plus the aggravating anti-China EU tariffs). Still cheaper than off Allegro though, so your tariffs aren't working, guys. The fans also look like a revised design with a plastic ring connecting the blades instead of the former open blades which fell off.

    Might last longer. This thing is only 5.5 years old, gotta keep working much longer yet.

    Hope they come soon. After prying out all the broken blades, the fan spins but is imbalanced and vibrates unpleasantly.

    At least suspend/resume works again.

  7. Laptop has been behaving oddly of late. Massive clock drift and unable to suspend/resume. Turns out both rely on the little CR2016 "CMOS" battery, which was empty.

    No problem, especially if you have a battery tab spot welder and can just pry the nickel tabs off the old and weld them onto a new CR2032 battery. Double the capacity and not getting scammed €16 for a 20 cent battery.

    However, it was also due a cleanout and when I took it to the air compressor, along with the dust half the fan blades blew away too. Huh, that's never happened before.

    Apparently some problem with a) flimsy fan design and b) aging plastic getting brittle. Apparently these usually failed even earlier.

    There's a ....
