Chris Barnatt is one of my favourite people on the internet. His vocal cadence, his humour, his editing choices. It's perfection. Thanks for sharing.

Damn straight. Well, good luck out there. I hope you only have good experiences on Lemmy. And you can feel good knowing you gave this guy the warm and fuzzies.

Also, I would like to say that this is why I love Lemmy. The community is just so much friendlier and more empathetic than a place like Reddit. Thank you for reinforcing my perception.

Thank you for being sincere in this reply; you could easily have gotten defensive. And sorry if my reply seemed overly snarky. I'm not very good at social media.

That is very strange. I wonder how that decision got made. But funnily enough, that is the exact reason I went for the T16 over the Z16, which was priced similarly during the sale I took advantage of for this. I could have swallowed the lack of USB-A ports, because docks are not that expensive where I live, but for fuck's sake. Give me rj45 or give me death.

Thank you; I am enjoying it very much so far. It blows my 5-year-old Acer Nitro 5 out of the water. I hope you enjoy yours too.

Ah, that's unfortunate. I haven't really had a chance to push this machine very much, so I can't say from experience whether it's really better.

[–] Maerman@lemmy.ml 1 points 8 months ago

Awesome. Now here's hoping neither of us drop our brand new machines on the ground.

This is my first ever Thinkpad, so I can't be disappointed by the comparison. What I can compare it to, though, is my old Acer Nitro 5, and it is miles ahead of that one. The build quality, the keyboard, everything is superior on the Thinkpad.

Naturally. I have the Arch logo tattooed on my forehead.

[–] Maerman@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago

I might die of excitement now, though.

Why, is the Intel option sub-par? I just got the AMD version because my older laptop has NVIDIA hybrid graphics, which is a serious pain in the ass on Linux. I also wanted to play with Wayland. But why do you dislike the Intel version?
