if you use a laptop like this unironically as a portable device you will $100% be labeled as an autist to basically everyone, techie or non-techie
like i used to think carrying a thinkpad was autist enough but
@Windatica Dude... man... 😦
I have a ThiccPad with an Arch sticker on it.
I attract autisticos left and right.
I regret everything.
take the stickers off
somehow this doesnt surprise me
Earlier this semester some dude came up to me, all gayflirty-like, "Hey, I noticed your Arch sticker. I use Ubuntu myself. Do you use vim?"
And a week or two ago some guy went "Hey, I use a ThinkPad too! [proceed to chat about ThinkPad things]"
😐
maybe you just looked lonely and they thought you might need some friends @kontroll
🤔
That last guy... you might be right.
are you in compsci? compsci has a lot of weird kids in my uni
The usual nerds I talk to hadn't showed up yet as I was waiting outside the lecture hall.
Nop. Basically as far removed from that as is "reasonable."
(I'm taking English and History)
I barely play any gaymes anyway...
And before you tell me it's only 100 USD cheaper, your laptop have a way better deal than most of the components I chose
And except for the RAM (which is obviously not the most expensive thing in the setting, and only have a 16% rebate), almost everything is full priced
CPU is way better, GPU is a tad lower
That's mainly because I couldn't find a GPU that wasn't disproportionately more powerful and expensive
Who is that link for?
Tux sticker on the x60
Also Amazon.com only because I'm very lazy

I'm blind.
Buying a huge gaming laptop hurts the laptop part since its a pain
That + your back but if you're young enough you probably don't care about that (yet)
The x200 is literally perfect for note taking
Also probably couldn't find the best deals ever because I'm not murican so I don't know where the good deals are
Small, light, durable, 16:10
Yeah
I have an X270
This thing is fucking great
Based
The only downside is that I don't have the most advanced model (no 2nd battery and no fingerprint reader)
