Defend yourself with the chair leg of truth.

Yeah, those 1940s kids should have just stayed home by themselves and streamed those movies instead of socializing and making out!

I’ve let it go about a dozen times now, still doesn’t take. Tried updating the system from desktop as well but no luck. I’d hate to factory reset it. I’ll sort it out and post back if I do. Thanks!

Anybody else have an issue installing this one where you go through the update process and are asked to reboot, but when you’re back in setting sit tells you the update is ready?

Fuck that guy though.

Literally the most realistic portrayal of life aboard an American boat.

It’s easily the only thing that makes so many games playable on the Deck.

This is automatic in WA state, and I absolutely love it. Never missed a local or federal election.

I know exactly what you mean! I’ve been on i3 with every build at home for like a decade or something now and it’s easily the most productive environment I can be in. Rarely change things in my config between machines so I end up just slapping the same dotfiles in first thing and I feel like I’m home.

No, it’s fake. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/pray-bow-golden-trump-statue/

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

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.

RJD2 is the shit honestly.

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.

Unfortunately we’re pretty locked down, and it’s not a big enough deal to me to force the issue with our super cool InfoSec team.

Man, I’ve been running i3 at home for years and using Windows for work kills my efficiency so hard. Lemme have my billion virtual desktops and move tiles in half a second so I can stop dragging shit all over! I do use PowerToys to help a bit but it’s just not the same when you’re used to a kwyboard-centric workflow.

You know what? I’d go if I was local just to see.

I always thought it was funny the inspiring poem engraved on one of our most treasured national monuments was made by and sent by the French. We can’t even fake it on our own 🙄

Aww shit.
