gollark: Yes, they have become Apple in all their badness.
gollark: Laptops have bigger batteries and fans and less of an expectation of battery life/portability so they aren't constrained as much. Desktops can just draw stupid amounts of power and have giant fans and nobody minds much so they can use waaaay more.
gollark: Better, but it also is designed to run off battery for a while.
gollark: The thing to remember is that laptops have things like "fans" and "actual competent cooling".
gollark: Probably not well except briefly.
