It's FOSS

for last tuxedo laptop, i did not nuke the hard disks. it didn't have windows at the first place.
but previous two, i wiped hardisks byte by byte.
mbeddedDev@zetabeta What's your experience with Tuxedo? I'm interested in their Infinity Book 14" but I can't find any tests in the internet which are talking about the fans in detail. For example: Can I work a whole day programming without hearing any noises (multiple IDEs, compiling, running containers and VMs)?
The notebook of my client is driving me crazy. The ans are running 100% the whole day. Even during boot..

i bought only one laptop, TUXEDO InfinityFlex 14 - Gen1. it seems to be unavailbale at the moment.
basically, my opinion is limited.
i don't think battery lasts whole day, 20V battery banks may help for that. generally speaking laptop seems to be silent, but may not apply for other laptop models, especially if they are more powerful.
i have this feeling that tuxedo is little bit pricey.
@zetabeta Thank you for your insights :)
derptron@zetabeta @itsfoss If it has Windows on it you should really take out the "hard drive" and just replace it with a new one.
Failing that though, you can maybe burn it off with a thousand cycles of dd if=/dev/random
The taint will always be there though--down under the bits. No exorcism is complete. It's best to just never be possessed to begin with.

BoloMKXXVIII@crazyeddie @zetabeta @itsfoss Derrick's boot and nuke (DBAN) is good stuff for ensuring data is permanently wiped.
