you can get real keys by putting the t420 ones on the t430

eternity is amazing and works really well, I’ve had no issues so far

at least he doesn’t look like an amphibian

wow that’s so surprising cant believe capitalistic profit centric big tech would do that oh my god no way

it works on my kde neon by default

then MOVE.

they’re too micro soft to acknowledge that bash is better than cmd

I don’t think debian is good for first time users because:

• the downloads page 🗿
• sudo isn’t setup out of the box
• most guides refer to ubuntu 20.04/22.04

what??? why do you lose credit by getting hit by a car? that’s insane

tbh I like mint, but for people that want to learn linux I think ubuntu is better.

There’s more people using it, so you get better support, and there’s other flavpurs available so things like kde and xfce are supported well right out the box

I don’t recommend wsl because it bodges the worst part of windows (windows terminal) onto linux. Also, it’s much nicer to learn in a vm where you are learning actual linux, instead of MS’ interpretation of linux.

It’s like playing with clay in a bag, versus playing with clay with your bare hands.

yeah, but also account for the cost of a battery replacement

ThinkPad T430

pros:

• old
• extremely cheap
• usable performance, can be upgraded to average performance
• libreboot compatible
• very compatible with Linux
• great keyboard (if you mod it with a t420 keyboard)
• trackpoint (controversial)
• hot swappable batteries
• repairable
• display can be upgraded to IPS if you manage to find a converter board

cons:

• old
• bad battery life (if you keep the stock one)
• TN panel
• not blazing fast (more than enough for the tasks you mentioned though)

i would recommend the 13 but not 16, it literally hasn’t been released yet and there’s no reviews to base opinions off of.

I have a mk3s+ and it’s so good, definitely more capable than I need

god i hate gates and wish he never did this whitewashing bullshit but these vaccine dumbasses have as many brain cells as their iq value

t430 would probably like to have a talk

lemmygrad existed before all the reddit people

I see, but I’ve never encountered that in my life.

I’m not American, I’m from Australia and watch a lot of overseas content. I guess I just didn’t encounter it then.

Not really.

Norway has 5,391,369 people, and assuming ~40% use facebook, that’s 2 million people that use facebook. 36.5 million dollars per year of fines mean that it’s 18 dollars per user per year.

Facebook has 2 billion users worldwide, and has a revenue of 33 billion every year. If all of those 2 billion users fined facebook for 18 dollars per year, that’s their whole revenue gone.

It just doesn’t have that much effect right now because it’s only norway doing it.
