Is he doing lines and smoking or just smoking very crooked joints?
He doesn’t know, that’s how fucked up he is.
I love it!!!
makes me think of the good ol’t times when the air was cleaner, roads were safer and our bosses used to pay us in Thinkpads, not this “fiat money” nonsense.
I’m new to Linux; what’s with the ThinkPad hype?
They generally have really great linux support for all of their hardware (touchpads, fingerprint readers, etc.), and provide bios updates via fwdup. They are also just nice laptops.
Yeah back when it was IBM before they sold off to Lenovo. Back when their biggest selling point was their priority was keeping you up & running and getting work done. Nowadays nearly all the products are made with the priority “So, how do we design this so the user will have to pay for it multiple times?”

I’m a gnu/linux noob. I recently installed Pop OS on two older laptops. Am loving it so far. Going to work on getting games functioning on one of them next.
Was blown away when the built-in Disks program was able to easily fix a couple of thumb drives I have that were suffering from logical corruption. They were completely unusable in Windows 11. I tried 4 different methods in Windows 11 to fix them, with zero luck. Disks fixed them in 2 clicks. They are nicer thumb drives and were somewhat expensive. I am very happy to have them back.
These are good at holding all sorts of things like doors.
Nice. I use older lappies to remote control my i7 machine. They can be fairly good dumb terminals.
Libreboot it.
This is from 2004: https://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/ibm-thinkpad-x31 It will chew amps (electricity). Recycle it as best you can. Grab a modern box instead.
Unless sparks are free where you live, this beast will become a liability very quickly.
I totally get what you’re saying, but I suspect the OP is not going to be using this device full-time. Or even part-time.
