      Some people seem to get off on calling others mentally challenged for freely made choices that they disagree with. This comic mocks them.

    My Thinkpad T14s Gen 4 has a few annoying bugs still on linux…

    The WiFi chip will randomly be stuck at make 1kbps download speed after waking up from sleep

    And occasionally on waking up sleep as well the screen never comes back on.

    I wish I had something more compatible with linux even if I do love this thinkpad

      I had an S76 (Darter pro) through work and I really really wanted to like it, but it was loud and just died whenever I had to run minikube and a screenshare at the same time. :/

    for the initial comic, one should be aware that if a thinkpad comes with preinstalled windows, you indirectly pay the hidden cost of it to microsoft through the manufacturer. so when you then install linux on it, you gave them money for nothing in return.

    so it kinda depends on what “better” means for you.

      The Windows Key is saved in the bios and visible in config, though. You should be able to use it on a different computer or to sell it on some questionable markets. I don’t think it’s strictly legal to resell it, but c’mon… who has never bought a 10€ OEM windows key on ebay?

        Initially read that as you were talking about the physical windows keyboard key and was quite confused
