Hello, I've written a more detailed post about it https://www.brt.fyi/posts/prime-flow-field/

and also put the code in a public repo for anyone to use https://github.com/brtmax/prime-flow-field

Thank you!

Can't name any concrete place but maybe try a local Hackerspace? They often help with that for free and you can give a donation

I would rather pay money.

That reminds me, I should have mentioned an even more backwards design which is that of the vent placement on my older Thinkpad X1. It has the air intake vents on the bottom, they relied on the little rubber feets to lift it up for correct airflow. I pretty much could not use it on my lap because of that, it got too hot even during smaller tasks. But to be fair, I've noticed similar placement on several HP/Dell laptops (or notebooks?) that I had at work too.

So I've weighed it with my cheap kitchen scale, that says it weighs 1222g now. Sadly I did not weigh it before. I did look online and saw 1240g for the same model/specs.

Take of that what you will, but I can't imagine that I filed off that much. I'm assuming my kitchen scale is just not well calibrated

Thanks for sharing that story! That is a nice way to think about it.

I've read online that some people use the corners near the indent for opening the lid for "pain stimming", so you are definitely not alone with that :D

Ah, that's a good spot.
