I thought you just got hired as CEO?

@Pat I did but i have to leave the country for them to get my work visa. And its EVP & CIO

@freemo 3 weeks in 2 days. Sounds like you need a new Panasonic Toughbook with all the options. Hot swapping batteries, communication in a warzone and ability to be used as a weapon. The world's only true all in one laptop.
I loved mine and throwing it down stairs when people asked what kind of laptop it was.

@freemo I'm using a laptop with a removable battery and processor slot.

@freemo HP Pavilion something, it's a desktop replacement form factor. It has an AMD A10 5750m CPU, more ram than the system is allegedly capable of, chassis mods for better thermals and performance.

I'm proud of it and the 8 years of heavy use.

@freemo If you are trying to not say something bad about the OEM, I had to send it in for repairs in less than 2 weeks of buying it. HP is for Unix, servers, printers and calculators.

@freemo HP Pavilion 17-e119wm is the model and it was made in 2013. I hate most things about the laptop but it has a ZIF CPU socket and I could potentially swap the CPU.

I removed the plastic around the exhaust vent and removed the optical drive so I can get air from the other side as the vents on the bottom aren't sufficient. Thermal paste is Artic Silver 5 because of proven performance and science. I can hold full 3.5GHz clock at 100% utilization for hours without issue. It might reach 70C on the CPU during such workloads.

@freemo Well, you're American. You're supposed to only have 10 vacation days in a year or something like that!

@trinsec Nah, americans are too rich for that shit.. anyone too poor to spend half the year vacationing dies in a few weeks anyway.
