Expected laptop hinge lifespan?
I plan to use this program to finish my university thesis. How much can my laptop (A 2 year old dell XPS 9360) help before the hinge breaks? Thank you.
I have extensively used the script and have typed my master thesis via this, my hinge broke after completing around 9571 words. I suggest you use the binary typing tool after your hinge breaks if you need to use more words
@Saren-Arterius My understanding is that a hinge is a muscle that gets stronger as it's used.
I recommend stretches (fully opening laptop past 180 degrees) before using the hinge extensively :+1:
@aaronjanse's point is very well taken. You need to use a full range of motion while training to maximize muscle growth.
And as always, progressive overload is key to improving hinge lifespan, so I would recommend increasing reps and then adding weight once you can do 12-15 in a row without failure.
