Well there's your problem. I heard Windows works perfectly on Skylake.

No, it doesn't. Just yesterday I was running my latest C#.NET implementation of the Fibonacci numbers on Windows 10 and my Skylake laptop halted and caught fire.

Laptops are shit, and always have been. I've been on Linux on Skylake since they came out, and the only issue is some IGP acceleration didn't work at first, but that's what nVidia is for.

Not nearly as shit as tablets, though.

Laptops are indeed shit. Every laptop I've owned died a month after the warranty expired. Three laptops in 6 years. Fucking planned obsolescence garbage. Never again will I buy such trash.

Meanwhile, my 7 year old desktop is still going strong.

What laptops have you been using, Lenovo? Tell that to my 7-year-old Toshiba that still works fine even though I've never changed its thermal grease.

I'm talking about speed and reliability.

My 7-year-old Toshiba laptop is physically falling apart, the ribbon cable through the hinge is dying, the touchpad is confused, the fingerprint reader has not worked for years, the keyboard is flaky, it's constantly blasting heat, and of course it's god-awful slow. It's not completely dead, which I guess is something, but it's unusable. Similar tale to any other laptop around here that's not brand new.

Desktops do their thing and do it well, are cheap, have longevity through upgrades, and don't fall apart with use. With modern internet speeds, ssh, VNC, and remote X11 put them into whatever portable disposable form factor you want.

And my Commodore 64s still work fine at 30+ years old.

Oh, and that Toshiba has spent most of its life sitting on a desk in an office, not being thrown around by kids or tossed through airplanes.

Only ricers waste time fucking around with thermal grease when some scraped off an old heatsink is as effective as new one.

Meanwhile 2.5" HDD of all brands die randomly compared to 3.5" drives, even when used on desk-anchored laptops and with adequate cooling.
