@Kyle Gospo could you update the alternative handhelds part of the readme specifying SimpleDeckyTDP is AMD only at the moment?

and I thought "maybe the claw will have battery life advantage over amd handhelds"

Aru

Aru•3/20/24, 5:59 PM

It's like they knew the Intel was bad at low TDP. Officially the claw's min TDP is 20W
