I have a computer, now. Like, a real one.
It's... geez. Never had such a nice computer.π
Discussion
I made an unboxing video, for the lulz, but then I realized that I'm sitting on my bed in my nightgown and you can see me in the screen and it was like whoa TMI nevermind.
So, here's a fuzzy still. π
Ohh sadge, i like unboxing video. I'm thinking of buying a thinkpad π€ Maybe a used one
It feels so nice. π Like a new car. Carbon.
I haven't even tried to turn it on, yet. Just excited to carry it around and rub it like a magic lamp. π€£π€£
what will your 3 wishes be
Wikifreedia, Highlighter, and Coracle. Simultaneously. Works. No lag, at all.
But Wikifreedia is annoying to log into, with everything getting shifted off the bottom of the screen because of the Categories at the top.
i want to check Wikifreedia and Highlighter these out. a friend wants to make a "Zine" so I'm looking for platforms that might work.
Highlighter would be the appropriate one.
nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft could maybe help you figure out the best format. There's post scheduling and stuff.
shiny new tech is a nice feeling

i am getting a nice 144hz 15,6" IPS display today... i decided it would help my workflow a lot to put all the "fun" stuff on it and let me use the whole of my two 2k displays for work... looking forward to playing games on it because this video card will almost max out on the framerate, and it will be nice and bright for videos
maybe later on will be fun to try and make a 2d GUI that maxes out the 144 frames per second too
oh yeah, you would not have loved my lenovo ideapad 3 tho
endless hassles with the USB... adequate otherwise but that's a real deal breaker for me with my mech keyboard
Aw, too bad you noticed...
I coulda bolstered my "Dev Gal Pinup" collection...ππππ€£π₯°ππ«ππ
Good for you! You must really feel the difference
Thank you, nostr:npub1ak68qfcjj7k95c0jwleu69x72nr8adwv6g80pkwl9xlps6zmkqzqrxy8fx
I will build cool stuff with it. ππ»
First thing I do, I run Primal and Docker simultaneously. π
If you are into GNU/Linux, Fedora runs really well on ThinkPads in my experience.
Debian is on it and seems pretty good, so far.
looks like my T420 which is a beast under the hood. Good thing is, no one will bother stealing it because it looks so "old"
Yeah... like... industrial. You could drive a tank over that thing. And thin and silent.
Good thinkpads, they are awesome, I have an old x230 that is amazing
Yeah, this is Gen 6. The carbon is π₯
I've had mine for 6 years. The speakers are terrible, but other than that it will probably last me another 10 years. Try playing some video games though just to see if it overheats. Tuxkart is a good candidate. I had to repaste my CPU because they over pasted it at the factory and it overheated easily. A little liquid metal paste and I can game on it now. Not that I do, but I could if I wanted.
how does a fake computer look like?
My old one. It looks like a computer, but doesn't actually do anything.
