News from Uberjack:
If there’s one thing that’s more annoying than malfunctioning hardware, it’s fried hardware. In a laptop.
The Nvidia card in my Inspiron 9300 (my main development machine) is fried - the display is a mess, and the system hangs shortly after starting up. I’ve already ordered a replacement card, but that’s probably going to take a while. For the last couple of days, I’ve been relegated to developing on a remote machine via NoMachine NX, then downloading the compiled binary for testing. This is ridiculously inefficient, but it hasn’t been without fruitful results.
