Wheres the introduction to Rust, choker, skirt, Blahaj, and Thinkpad X220?
-
I ought to make my own programming starter pack meme with all those things.
-
this comment genuinely reminded me that i need to both find my choker and finish installing linux on my x230t
-
Very good Thinkpad, especially with the classic keyboard mod and libreboot :3
-
-
You jest but I unironically want one of the Thinkpads with a Snapdragon X (|Plus|Elite) to compile my Rust on.
-
Woah, I said an older Thinkpad. We dont talk about what Lenovo has done to the modern Thinkpad image (theyve dragged it through the mud). Eveyone knows the last good Thinkpad was the T480.
-
Their Thinkpad T's and X's still seem honestly good, it's just that there's many Thinkpad lines that are shit as well.
-
The problem is that even the T and X model Thinkpads have been chasing thin and light above build quality. They no longer have protective metal cages, the keyboard isn't as good, and its bends/flexes (which makes sense considering its thin). I get thats the "modern" laptop design but I wish they went back to making massive laptops.
-
Ah, I thought those lines didn't make those 'compromises". I'll look into it, thanks!
-
Nearly every laptop OEM has been making comprimises, if you want a true classic Thinkpad style laptop (thats thick and has good build quality) the MNT Reform is the only option. Its massive, thick, has a mechanical keyboard, has an option for a trackball, and isnt particularly powerful (the Raspberry Pi CM5 is realistically the most powerful thing you can put in it).
-
They can come with an RK3588, which is more powerful than the Raspberry Pi 5.
Although it loses by a large margin in performance from even my old Dell XPS's Intel i5-7300HQ, the performance isn't great.
That said, that is right in between a ThinkPad T440's 4th gen i5 or i7, so maybe that's not all bad.
