Comments on Trump lawyer Alina Habba's use of "gaming laptop" - eviltoast

First of all, this is not criticising or taking a cheap shot or really political at all. I am fascinated that a lawyer uses/brings a gaming laptop to trial and I can’t help but think it was contrived as another distraction.

What do y’all think? BTW, how expensive are they generally?

You think she plays League?

    The impact is negligible. It’s a few extra seconds during boot. You won’t even notice during use except maybe for specific IO-intensive workloads. FDE on a modern computer isn’t like the junk from 15 years ago with third party security apps. There’s no reason not to use it.
