Can you recommend very cheap laptops with a warranty that is able to both watch video for >= 4 hrs on batteries, and either (a) run Steam Play or (b) OS be Windows (I'd play very old game with the laptop if it can't handle old games)? For #2 I assume the battery would last < 4 hrs...

Can you suggest a Windows 11 lower-end laptop, or a used laptop with a long warranty (eg 90 days), which can run at regular mode (not battery-saving) for 4+ hrs? One of the goal is running a 3D 15 year old game, which I could set to low settings and to a resolution lower than native, eg 720p. I...

Yes; although I have no Apple product; so Windows, Ubuntu & Android. It could even switch tips, an ink one and a pressure-sensitive one, but both able to extract the LaTeX from.

Can you suggest a Bluetooth pen with replaceable or refillable ink cartridge that I can use both * for writing on paper, and * with the cap on or pen tip retracted (the latter if retractable), both recognizing the formula and creating the corresponding LaTeX script? I don't have a large budget...

I've done a single interview > 15 years ago, unpublished. B150M-DS3H-CF "C:\Program Files\Realtek\Audio\HDA\RtkNGUI64.exe" -s

Can you suggest a toggling, possibly in the system tray, free on-the-fly sound normalizer? It's only for listening to interviews; often the interviewee have lower volume and I find myself raising the volume which is hard on my ears when the interviewer speak.

Someone I'm volunteering for bought a used Acer E5-573T laptop without a battery. That person then bought a non-OEM battery, a ZTHY, which looks like an OEM one. The first time I plugged it in it didn't look like it was fully in, but I'm no strong man, so I then used long nose pliers to try to...

I'd be--very--wary if there wasn't a way to either test before buying or have some way of ensuring you may return it. I'd be worried about memory or storage not being good, and especially if there was a power issue; perhaps the system shuts down from overheating when you run it plugged > 6 hours.

I ended up with https://www.amazon.ca/Docking-Station-Monitor-Charging-ThinkPad/dp/B0B9XP56P5/ , with 2 USB A 3.0 and 1 USB C (beside the PD one).

Thank you for those 2 suggestion, which I already seen. I would prefer if there was at least 2 USB-A, for keyboard and mouse, 3 (or more) would be preferable in case I wanted to check something on a USB stick.

yes.
