People that use laptops all the time, how close do you think the actual battery life of your laptop is to that implied by the manufacturer?

It seems like my Surface Pro 3's battery is only lasting 5 hours or so when Microsoft says it is supposed to last 9 hours with web browsing which is exactly what I am doing most of the time.

Not even close.
Neither on windows, nor on Linux.
Then again, I use chrome, which is a battery drain, and also set the Power profile to High-Performance since most of the time I run off a power socket anways and it makes a noticeable difference in performance, So I'm not remotely surprised that my battery sinks like a brick
I don't think I ever looked at the manufacturer's claimed battery life for my XPS, I just looked at reviews and it seems pretty accurate to that :v:
My X200 lasts about 8 hours but I have no idea how long it's actually supposed to last :v:

I hope you responded with the fact a immigrant is almost guaranteed to spell better and overall be more coherent textually.

The avatars on FP drains batteries like there's no tomorrow, atleast on smartphones, so probably also on a Surface
Hey guys, months ago I was asking for repositories of viruses for a work thing. I was linked to a really nice site that gave a heat map on where virus infections were coming from and what ISP. I cannot recall what that website was, nor find that post.
Can anyone point me in a good direction?

Anyone in an English-speaking country willing to take in a refugee? I'm seriously considering fleeing before things get bad over here. I've got nothing tying me to the US right now, quit my job a month ago and I'm living off savings (which I have a lot of).
Come back to the homeland.

Calm down. Sure, it sucks, but the world's not gonna end overnight.
AFAICT emigrating from the US to another English-speaking country shouldn't be too difficult if your skills are in demand (read: you work in tech).

You can't claim refugee status yet. Just migrate with your savings?

Considering it, but the whole Brexit thing makes me suspect the UK is going down the same road as the US. Maybe you'll be smart enough to keep the damage low but it's a concern.

Yeah, I'm going to wait and see if Trump actually starts doing the things I fear he'll do, I'm not packing my bags now or anything, but it makes sense to at least start making preparations.
Brexit is nowhere near as bad as what's happened in recent events, UK is still gonna be an OK place to live, esp if you have the skills/funding.
Australia's... safe. Boring. Job market isn't that great for the tech sector, but still just safe.

Switzerland is safe and boring aswell. So boring in fact that a while ago, 2 boys refusing to shake the teachers hand made national headlines.
I like me a boring country.

Oh. Good point. Well... just be sure to carry a knife with you and stay in the cities.

I don't go outside anyways, so as long as there's air conditioning and good internet, I'm good.

I lived with a Somali-tier ISP for three years, I should be able to tolerate the bad Australian internet. As long as I can stream Youtube videos reliably I should be fine.

Youtube's fine, just don't expect anything else. Vimeo, Streamable, vid.me, Twitch, etc, etc.
I like Estonia right now. PM got removed due to trust issues, we are next to Russia and well, at least the winter seems to be pretty nice right now.
