Had a shitty week made all better by cat hing up with two good friend for beer wine, pasta and chats. Home now and feeling the stress drained away. About to go to bed because I am old. And that's ok

This is what makes me so mad about the fake nuclear debate. We had that debate 20 years ago and renewables won. Yes the grid rollout is behind and we need regional zones for connection and storage management but we are so much further along then people know.

Nah I know a few permanent WFH people at atlassian. The company makes a big deal about it so I would be surprised if it changed (this is in Aus)

Recommendations for a good developer (Ubuntu) laptop (aussie.zone)
 

My old xps13 is old in the tooth and the new ones have some things I don't like. So I am after recommendations. My preferences

  • Linux (Ubuntu/Debian friendly). Happy to wipe and install and will check compatibility beforehand but if anyone has a Linux daily driver they love let me know
  • good CPU and decent RAM (32gb would be nice)
  • Lightweight - smaller preferred (currently on a 13" and happy)
  • Touchscreen would be nice
  • Usb-c
  • Decent battery life

I have access to other machines for heavy GPU stuff that's not as important as CPU and RAM.

Uses:

  • Programming/terminal use
  • Reading docs and papers
  • Watching movies etc
  • No gaming

That's my wishlist. What do you suggest, Aussie tech friends?

Yeah the only people I know who have gone to Starlink have done it because they are rural and can't get close to 100Mbit speeds if they have NBN access at all
