Judge: “Counsel, why is your laptop running so loudly?”
Lawyer: “It’s…uh…fuming at the witch hunt that my client has endured.”
Jimbabwe ( @Jimbabwe@lemmy.ml ) 50•9 months agoI choose my facts carefully and this one is the one.
MudMan ( @MudMan@kbin.social ) 101•9 months agoSo, alright, in her defense, I have that particular laptop and a) it’s not that heavy, b) at least the AMD versions can go up to 8-9 hours with the mux switch off, and c) it actually has a great typing keyboard. It is absolutely a kickass mobile workstation, especially if you need the performance to do other stuff like edit video (or game, obviously).
Now, would I have switched the RGB off during court proceedings? Yes, I would have switched the RGB off.

LeylaaLovee ( @LeylaaLovee@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 2•9 months agoRoG laptops are legendary for quality, I don’t blame her for having one.
MudMan ( @MudMan@kbin.social ) 6•9 months agoLet’s not go nuts here, either. ASUS software is genuine garbage and there are lots of bad polish details all over the place.
But they make pretty weird, nutty choices that are often unique and cool, so I sometimes put up with their nonsense just for that.
ImplyingImplications ( @ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca ) 25•9 months agoYeah but imagine she asks the Judge to a 1v1. That’d be a real gamer move

flamboyantkoala ( @flamboyantkoala@programming.dev ) 16•9 months agoAsus RoG laptops are so underestimated for productivity. The AMD chips have fantastic battery life and performance.
Recently set up an office on a couple of them, granted it was not this high end of a model but it’s stupid to ignore them for office use.
Also I guarantee she didn’t pick this. This was 100% advised to her by her companies IT group after she repeatedly said her computer was slow. It’ll run all the spyware she downloads with enough cores left over to run excel.

She’s gonna grind that final judge.
