schestowitz[TR]                                        <p>And so I decided to get myself a new laptop - a Slimbook Titan no less. Why? Well, first I wanted a powerful mobile system that I can use for all sorts of purposes, including gaming. After all, that's what the Y50-70 did for a fair share of its life span. Second, I wanted a Linux-only machine so I can fully and totally prepare for the inevitable move away from Windows sometime in 2025 or soFeb 22 09:51
schestowitz[TR]. I already did a lot of preliminary work in this regard, and even just recently turned the previously dual-boot Y50-70 into a Linux-only system. Highly encouraged by that experience, including the hybrid graphics support, I decided, yes, I want a new machine, a powerful machine, with solid graphics, and it's going to be Linux only, and I'm going to tweak it into a total productivity host equivalent to what I get with Windows.

schestowitz[TR]Internal Appeal Template - 2022 Rewards ExerciseFeb 22 14:31
schestowitz[TR]"Dear Colleagues,Feb 22 14:31
schestowitz[TR]Last year SUEPO provided a request for review template (RfR) to challenge the Rewards Exercise 2022.Feb 22 14:31
schestowitz[TR]Some of you submitted a RfR and received a negative decision from the administration. The deadline to submit an appeal is within 3 months from the date of your RfR rejection. For some of you it is therefore already the time to file an internal appeal.Feb 22 14:31
schestowitz[TR]SUEPO has prepared a model Internal Appeal Template that can be adapted to your personal case.Feb 22 14:31
schestowitz[TR]The template is available to SUEPO members -Feb 22 14:31
schestowitz[TR]Please contact the SUEPO office at your place of employment if you are a SUEPO member and did not receive the template via email or if you would like to become a member and receive the template.Feb 22 14:31

schestowitz[TR]Dear colleagues,Feb 22 16:12
schestowitz[TR]Despite it only being February, we are already facing a surge of the ever-present production pressure. The message from above is that we are behind target, and must all dig deep to make up the deficit. Many colleagues are having the urgency pressed upon them from their line managers, with the message that we just aren't individually doing enough.Feb 22 16:12
schestowitz[TR]But what is the root cause of this problem? You can find an answer in this publication.Feb 22 16:12
