I’ve got a Clevo laptop that covers most of your list. Mine’s a bit older, a 7th gen i5, but was very cheap, and easy to upgrade. If the newer models are built the same way, it’s what I’m going to go for when I eventually upgrade 👍

Uncle Benned, or Obi Wan Kenobi Benned? 🤔
I don’t know, you can get Photoshop and Lightroom for £10 a month, which is very cheap when you compare it to a night out or a takeaway, and at the moment, they’re better than the equivalents.
I do need to have another look at DaVinci Resolve though. I’ve heard loads of good things about it, but it was overkill for what I needed when I last tried it :)
I think I sat next to him on the bus once
I can’t decide if that would be too sweet with the apple sauce base. That might have to be an experiment :)
That’s a good point. I haven’t cooked anything with apple that could go soggy for years, so I hadn’t thought of that. Pulled pork and apple pizza is sounding nice though :)
Why is apple a bad idea? Apple with pork and cheese is delicious :)
I don’t know, I find that my hyperfocus doesn’t kick in until I start doing something
Thanks for replying :)
I managed to get it working with the answers from @Max_P@lemmy.max-p.me and this link:

I must have been testing it when you answered :)
I’ve got them up and running, and working for both users, thank you :)
That’s brilliant, thank you :)
Usually
/mnt/whatever
for static mounts and/media/whatever
for removable mounts (those appear as drives in file managers, whereas /mnt doesn’t).
Just to check, if I mount the drives under /media, will that still treat them as removable, or will they appear as permanent drives?
Ext4 everywhere.
Linux is obviously very good, but you are right, we give Linux a pass sometimes because we ‘build’ it. We tend to overlook its flaws because we want it to be better than the competition.
I’ve recently had an upgrade fail to the point of a reinstall, a folder that I can’t share between two users on the same laptop, and shutdown buttons on two computers that disappeared. If those problems happened on Windows, I’d be really annoyed, but because they happened on Linux, I just fixed them and carried on.
You’re being downvoted, but you’re right. Every adapter I’ve bought for a full sized hard drive has needed its own power supply. I’m not sure if I’ve seen one for a PATA drive that didn’t come with one.
I wonder how much something like that would answer the why too. As an example, if a person threw something across a room and broke it without an obvious reason, could you look at a complete record of their history, and the history of the people around them, and figure out the reason. Would you be able to see signs of anger building through the day and look back to the root cause?
I read an Arthur C Clarke book a few years ago, and it was based around a device that could see anything, anywhere, some sort of microscopic portal I think. One of the characters used it to look back in time following someone’s DNA, so seeing their mother, then their mother’s mother and so on, and eventually saw the intelligence disappear from the distant ancestors eyes. I’m wording it badly, but the idea stuck with me.
I’d love to know when that first spark of intelligence showed up, that separated us from animals, and what our ancestors either side of that divide did differently and similarly. I doubt that there would have been any significant differences at first, but those subtle differences could be fascinating :)
I have nothing to add but Cartman

Did anyone see what I did on a may 16th 2011 at 7:16pm?
Wait, that was you?! 😱
Ah, sorry, I didn’t think of that side of things. I was thinking more along the lines of it could solve things that everyone agrees is a crime, like murder.
My line of thought was more just would you want the easy answers, or would you prefer to have to work for them.
Mine is a Stone branded Clevo, a Stonebook Pro p11b, but as you say, there are others out there. I bought mine refurbished for about £150 and upgraded the SSD and RAM.
