@drew Well, so far. You have to consider the amount of RAM and storage you are working with, and it is getting warm. That said, though, I am running about 8 chrome tabs, not including Discord, Slack, and Spotify; that's just on the desktop side. I have distrobox installed on an sd card with about 4 or 5 docker containers running concurrently.
@fireborn I am also thinking about the GPD-Win mini, which is a windows PC handheld. Obviously it has much better specs, but I do not really need to game on the go, it is murder on the battery life and will not perform as well as my desktop anyway. And apparently the keyboard is awkward or something. And I am really tired of having to fight my device for access. So if this is performant enough to get stuff done and I don't really notice, that would be okay. I have always wanted a good blind Linux device to get into. The Icon... definitely was not that.
@drew I've had a few of these. My current is the Gpd Win Max, and before that I had the win2. Both are good, the Max is the far nicer size though. The Win2 is similar to the win mini and the keyboard is awful, you will need to carry an external one.
@FluidEscence It's actually pretty good. I wanted to travel light, and if I'm going to be telling people to buy these, I should find out what the usable limit is.
@fireborn@FluidEscence Wait... are you writing all your code from the braille keyboard? I mean I wrote a little bit on the book port with thumb braille way back and I thought that was annoying, I can't imagine being in Python and needing to indent... oh no
@TheQuinbox@FluidEscence I am, yes. I do have auto indent, thankfully. The BT Speak editor is based off nano, and on the Desktop side, I do have VS Code installed.
