Laptop computer Specs required for bioinformatician

Hello all.

I would like an honest and accurate answer based on real life bioinformatician working either as a freelance or in a research lab (research institute or company). What are the required specs to have in a laptop (macbook pro specifically): CPU/GPU, RAM (unified memory), and ssd storage?

Moreover, do all bioinformaticians (freelance or in research institute/company) work on cloud / HPC cluster servers. If it’s the case, should we rely on minimum specs (especially for RAM /unified memory which is extremely expensive if we upgrade it).

Many thanks in advance folks

Would like to know the weight (in grams) of empty bottle of Valentino UOMO born in Roma intense 100mL

Hello all.

I would like to know the weigth in grams of an empty bottle of Valentino UOMO born in Roma intense 100mL.

The reason is that i already have a used bottled (around half of the perfume used) and would like to estimate as accurately as possible the remaining volume in mL. By knowing the density. I can weigh the remaining volume on scale and then deduce the volume using the density formula. But for that i do need the exact weight of this bottle in grams.

Many thanks in advance.

Nespresso Citiz stuck in descaling mode!

Hello all.

This machine is an old Nespresso Citiz model C110, it has been stuck on descaling mode after running two descaling cycles and 2 rinsing cycles (for each descaling cycle, i used 500mL. And the rinsing cycles for each i used 1L). I tried the 3s, 5s and even 30s and 1min two buttons pressing to exit the descaling mode without success.
I was also trying to do a factory reset to force exiting it, even that is without success. Normally the machine should be turned off (by clicking both buttons once quickly simultaneously) for the factory reset to be triggered. But when pressing both buttons once, the blinking keeps forever. As shown in this video tape.

I seriously need help!
