Are you really going to yell over someone accidentally taking the wrong ham and cheese sandwich?

We use node.js with puppeteer for some of our web crawling at work. It's pretty straightforward once you have a basic script to launch it. If you havent already I'd highly suggest installing vs code. You install node.js, then using npm (node package manager) install puppeteer and whatever other dependencies you might have. Someone out there probably has a basic js file out there that will open chrome, or just ask an LLM (I just use ChatGPT, they're all the same shit). From there you just need to navigate to your pages, then use a queryselector and .click() to click on your elements. It's all javascript from there.

Pro tip: write your queryselectors in your browser using the inspect element/console tab, then put it in your JS file. Nothing is worse than being 10 minutes into a crawl and you've got a queerselector.

You're going to want to do a lot more reading ahead of time then. It's not hard, but you really need to know some basics about javascript before you start.

Maybe after reading 30 pages of the manual it might make things clear. But IDK about you, but I don't want to read through the owners manual for 10 different printers before buying one.

And a raspberry pi will do a hell of a lot better job at doing that than the printer.

Our brother printer at work is otherwise a fairly great printer. But dear god does it have the WORLDS WORST wifi connectivity. I had to put it directly under an AP at work so it wouldn't try to connect to one on the other side of the office at 0.1Mbps and constantly dropping packets.

Now they’re are doing it? There is nothing new about this, this has been a thing for YEARS.

There’s a lot of things you can do though. Big ass Walmart parking lot? Park in the very back. Office on the 4th floor? Take the stairs. Shit I’ve started practicing taking the 30 flights of stairs up to my office personally.

There’s a lot of little things you can do that add up.

Sorry, this is an AppleTalk household.

Oof, in only a couple years it was worthless.

Are you on Windows or Linux? On windows 11 go to settings > power and battery > power mode and if you set it to high performance it almost doubles the TDP of the CPU. On windows 10 click the battery and drag the slider to high performance. If what I read online is correct the T14 and the T15 are the exact same heatsink and motherboard so unless the 1" gap from the end of the heatsink to the vent is that much of a problem they should perform exactly the same, just like the later T14 and T16 models. But 4 years is more than enough time for the thermal paste to be toast. My P1 ruined it's paste in less than 6 months, but that's also an i9.

But that's the world of modern Intel CPUs. Turbo boost as far as you possibly can until you can't turbo anymore. Then in 6 months when the thermal paste is ruined you're searching for a new machine.

Change your thermal paste. These machines (as do all modern machines) run hot, and their paste doesn’t last long if you’re a heavy user. Find a thermal paste that’s thick in particular.

The pump out effect is really drastic on these modern CPUs if you’re constantly hitting 100% load.

The only thing I'm really curious about is how far back the CPU gets throttled with the dGPU active and busy.

On both of my machines when I render a video using my GPU the CPU is still the limiting factor because of the codec I chose. On my 11th gen machine it took like 5 minutes before it was power throttled down to 25 watts. My gen 6 takes longer to power throttle and only goes down to 35 watts, but either power level that sucks. I already know the gen 7 dials back the clock speeds, but I'm mostly curious how far it goes and how quickly?

The easiest way to test this is just open a video game that's taxing on the CPU and GPU, I don't think the CPU throttles with light loads like if you opened furmark. Maybe benchmarking software would cause it to throttle.
