When I went backpacking through India more than a decade ago I remember trying at least six clearly distinct types of banana. Most of them taste very different from what we're used to in Europe - richer, sweeter, etc. If those deep red ones in the second pic are the same kind I tried, they're so sickly sweet and incredibly dense that finishing even one is a challenge. And the variations in size, shape, and density make them poorly suited as a standardized measurement, sadly
Nah, they're not that sweet here, the really tiny ones are the really sweet ones. But yes, very different texture, especially the short and fat ones.
Much more flavour across the board than the boring stuff in Europe though.
Then there's plantain, which is also a kind of banana...
Ugh. This is as dumb as those DTR laptops that weigh 6 kilos and require a pair of 200W power bricks.
Laptops that can use >300W aren't really portable, and don't really have batteries to "charge", they have miniscule UPS units that can buy someone five minutes to find a different power outlet.
IMO these massive gaming laptops should just do away with the internal battery altogether and use the space for larger speakers and cooling surface. If they have to have a battery for aforementioned short trips to a different power outlet, they could just have a small one in the power brick itself that literally holds up long enough for you to unplug, move to another room, and plug back in again. That's just about the only thing a DTR battery is good for.
Well, it could be used for powering anything really, but I guess they are targeting the 6 kilo laptop crowd...
My first laptop was a 15" Dell that was around 4 kg with a 500 gram charger. I think I took it on a trip once.
I'm very much a fan of smaller laptops, but even 14" is pretty reasonable these days in terms of weight and size.
these 2 last thread i read in the news made my weekend much brighter ... thanks (about banana yellow bright... ok, i'm out ... )
