It’s OLD, but it still works!
I have a lot of fond memories using the laptop, traveling, and producing content. It’s too old for me now, and Microsoft cut off updates for Windows 11.
It IS still a decent piece of hardware though, and it’s more powerful than my daughter’s school laptop. Funnily enough, she’s more familiar with Ubuntu than she is Windows.
I think it’s time to swap the operating system, and hand this machine down to Lexi! Continue reading “Reviving My Ten-Year-Old Razer Blade Laptop! So Long Windows 10…”

It’s not always easy to figure out how big a battery you should buy to run your appliances. The refrigerator is especially difficult to measure because it can cycle on and off. The best way to measure this is with a watt meter that has a memory function (affiliate link for one below), but if you dont have one handy, you can still figure out a loose estimate on how much battery you should buy.
