A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Ugh, I don’t want to be forced to build a laptop to avoid all this battery blasting garbage.

If you boot aarch64 linux instead, you’ll actually get amazing battery life on these. And probably better app support than Windows ARM

Is the AI hardware all ARM or something?

[–] kibiz0r@midwest.social 4 points 1 day ago

Yeah, almost all of these Copilot+ laptops are Snapdragon-based

Is it even feasible to build your own laptop? As far as I know most of the laptop builds are proprietary.

It was as of 10 years ago, but I abandoned the project while in its infancy because it was such a headache. I’d fully believe that the practice died out, and the market with it.
