Surface Laptop Ultra. My First Windows PC in a Decade

From the creator

Is a Windows laptop good enough to win over an Apple guy? This is my first laptop for Windows in over a decade, and that's what's kind of nuts. NVIDIA sent me this laptop and got me into the launch event, and it's the Surface Laptop Ultra on NVIDIA's RTX Spark. I had a really low bar for Windows, and I'm actually really impressed. The feature I use all the time is the touch screen. I hold it like a V on my lap and just tap with my thumbs like a giant iPad, and it stays much cooler than my MacBook Pro. It also has 128 gigs of unified memory, which is basically like carrying a DGX Spark, and eighteen months from now a lot of capable models are gonna fit literally on this laptop. Prices on the Microsoft Store on Oct 18, 2026: from $2,599.99, and $5,899.99 with 128 GB of memory. The launch event was Microsoft and NVIDIA's, Oct 7 in San Francisco. Next up, I wanna do a nice dedicated live session for this laptop. Wispr Flow: https://rfer.me/wispr This is my referral link.

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
