i wouldnt discount the function of having four thunderbolt ports with equal capability, you can plug a charger into any of them and it’s pretty common to see thunderbolt docks being used with any brand now if an abundance of ports is the goal. External SSD’s can be hooked up with usb-c and most users don’t need usb-A anymore. All that is really missing for the average user is HDMI in my opinion, and that requires a simple adapter if the first party dock is too expensive.

basically it’s very practical for the target user,it’s not lacking in function just because it’s missing ports that most of its users wont care about

I’ve gotten both a quest and index working on Linux, running Windows games using proton. Works well.

People should be thrown in jail over a hypothetical?

Thank you for your input - I think a lot of that depends on the specific model and price point as well. Imo at the end of the day it’s good to go for a laptop thick enough to accommodate a heatsink and look up any firmware restrictions on performance beforehand. Plenty of workstation laptops hit point one but I haven’t gamed on them enough to speak for point two

How is it functionally different from running video editing or CAD software?

I’d personally look into Dell and Lenovo enterprise workstation laptops; same tech, but designed to be used instead of just looking flashy on a shelf.

Dude holy shit

AI as a whole is not subject to the flaws of LLMs

I can say that I hate that guy and I also hate it when people resort to playground insults. That’s my piece

My point is it’s really not a difficult principle to adhere to and you simply don’t do it. That’s your right but you’re coping about it
