The kind of people who would spend $1700 on something like this aren't the kind of people to track down/install custom firmware.

Does it still have issues with the Office suite? Like Excel just flat out dropping the ribbon and window decorations?

Just came from seeing it, and while you're absolutely right at least it's well written and self aware of all that. Could only work with Deadpool.

There are two Democrats inside me.

Maybe I could, but I'm not using it for gaming so battery life, portability, and fan noise don't have to be sacrificed for a few more FPS when I wanna play something light on the road.

The Tim Taylor approach to hardware was great when I was a kid, less so in my 40s looking to do some moderate coding and radio projects on the road away from my massively overbuilt gaming rig I already own. This lil guy checks all those boxes. I was just wondering what specific hate there was on newer models.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I finally retired my old laptop for a ThinkPad X13 a few weeks ago and it's been perfect for my use case. Build quality is solid, battery life is alright, it's small and light, and everything worked out of the box with the preinstalled Ubuntu. After testing it all I slapped EndeavourOS in there and have had zero issues. Specs are solid and I got it for like $1200. Even the AMD integrated graphics are punching way above what I expected.

Just curious about what folks are complaining about with the newer Lenovo models.

It's the only real way to push back that other folks will notice if enough of us do it.

Last time I went through DC a few weeks ago they were using these. I saw a sign saying you're welcome to opt out. Nobody even questioned what they were doing and were just going along. When it was my turn I politely said I'd rather not do the scan. Dude just glanced at my ID and waved me through. The next few folks behind me blinked and said they didn't want the scan either. If enough people push back it can at least maybe slow down the normalization of constant surveillance.

It sucks so bad people still pay to play it today!

I love OSRS.

 

I recently spun up a server for some friends that have all been playing with me since the alpha days, and wanted something fresh. Saw AutoCraft mentioned somewhere and checked into it. Basically a full blown kitchen sink pack with so much to do I can't get anything productive done, but it's been great!

Pack admin is responsive and trying to grow a community on their Discord. I've been impressed! It's not perfect for us, mostly around removing some of the client side QoL or gimmick mods that didn't fit how we play and not having any inventory organization out of the box (they're adding it), but more or less stable and good performance.

Anyway, just wanted to participate in the instance haha
