  • Previous research has shown that environmental factors affect memory and that information learned in one environment is retrieved better when the retrieval occurs in the same context.

    This part made me think about how sometimes “retracing” my steps, going back to the other room, suddenly makes me remember what I wanted to do.

    So, not sure how solid that study is, but it’s certainly quite an interesting idea, thanks for sharing!










  • Yea I feel like Windows is making it even ten times worse… I didn’t test it with linux unfortunately! One guess would have been that Windows 11 is the issue, but I didn’t dare to install Windows 10 in fear of losing the right to return it (not much of an expert in that field haha). I just find it a bit weird, my old Asus (Win10) gets loud easily too, but there I am able to throttle it down to stay quiet if I only need it for office work. With the new notebooks none of those tweaks had any effect, sadly (except for Windows becoming a slideshow…)
