Oh I know, but I’m just curious at what else exists out there.

I feel like a major appeal of thinkpads is the trackpoint and I don’t want to pay for something I won’t use.

I’m fine with getting one if no other laptops use that rubberized coating though.

Came to say this. My 13 amd is a champ. Got my refurb and it’s brand new, I see literally 0 scratches or blemishes on it.

Call me basic, but mint xfce. It’s light, customizable, and so damn stable. That’s all I really want. I love messing with other distros but this one is my baby

Hell yeah I love this game ❤️

Hopefully Coros watches avoid this but I’m not holding my breath. Coros makes a solid running watch for cheap and I’m hoping it stays that way. It’s got what I need and nothing else.

Go to Boulder CO and you’ll see plenty of rich morons with that kinda cash. I saw multiple swastitrucks a day over there

My 13 certainly looks like a MacBook and it’s a bit loud no doubt but yeah, I just upgraded a a couple things like more RAM etc and it took all of maybe 5 minutes. Great stuff.

Peer/Freetube baby

So it listens to you and you can “permit it” to read emails and all that shit? I didn’t even know this kind of thing existed let alone that anyone would CHOOSE to allow this. Crazy.

Eating more beans and lentils has saved me a butt load of money. Tofu too but price of soybeans might be going up soon so who knows how long that’ll last.

Yeah, started using it last night and I think it’s gonna stick. No complaints so far

Same. I’m about done with all things big tech. As much as is possible at least. Orion it is! I also saw Vivaldi but I’m not super interested in all the other services that come along with it.

Anyone have any good iOS alternatives? I’m eyeing Orion currently

Zen has been really nice for the few days I’ve been using it. It feels real sleek and just more modern over all.

My computer is a bit old though and I wonder if there is something similar that is even lighter on resources. Zen is still pretty dang light though.

Dude, same. It’s been about ten years since my wife and I stopped buying from amazon. Never have I had a problem finding the things I need on eBay or Craigslist or straight from the seller.

Just order some new headphones directly from Lenovo that were the exact price as on amazon and even had free two day shipping and don’t require me to have an account. Great, no issues.

For other things, people for the love of god please buy used and local as much as you can. I live in a smaller town and can find soooooo much shit locally. Not everything but I’d say most everyday things!

I really don’t get it either, how much shit do people need!?

I didn’t realize Gitea had any issues, I didn’t do my due diligence and look into them much after switching from GitHub.

I’ll check out forgejo thanks!

Just want to shout out my fav note app QOwnNotes for folks like me just needing a super simple but also super customizable notes app. Only downside is no mobile but I get around that with a git repo.

Any opinions on gitea? Idk I’ve been using it for about a year and it works nicely

Geany is a stupidly underrated piece of software imo. I use it for pretty much everything other than my largest of projects. Even then I consider it lol
