>>107881551Nope, I've never had an issue with it. The only reason I started using it was because it included a proprietary wifi driver i used to need, just kinda stuck with it since. Used to have an openRC flavor that got discontinued that was a bummer. I've had pretty good luck with it, but I'm honestly tired of Arch and AUR shenanigans which seems kinda silly
>>107881656It's shit. Basically unusable outside a few really old cards.>With Nvidia dropping support for my GPU I have been scared of updating my systemskill issue
>>107880550>Arch Linux with systemdsystemd in theory is supposed to be faster than sysVinit and OpenRC because it has parallel service startup, however somehow it manages to be slower on both boot and shutdown times due to using start jobs and stop jobs which can sometimes hang. Also it could simply be due to the large number of services that systemd has to initialize compared with sysvinit or openrc.Historically, sysVinit did not start services in parallel but serially using runlevels which made sysVinit really really slow, however with startpar, sysVinit now has parallel startup and can be just as fast if not faster than systemd.As for OpenRC, it has parallel startups but it's disabled by default because it's unstable, you can enable it if you want to by editing /etc/rc.conf.s6, runit and other daemontools based init systems are the fastest types of init systems, s6 is also well designed and 66 takes s6 and turns it into a user friendly service manager. It's a shame that 66 doesn't get more recognition because it is truly superior to everything else.If you're confused about all of this then this might help, this is the creator of s6 explaining init systems:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZqIEstv5lM

OLED is great
>>107881725Lets think about itMiniLED is still just LCD garbage its not gonna replace OLED, infact the name was chosen to sound similliar to OLED just to trick people into thinking its similiar techIts literally scam tech, LCD shit hiding behind an LED name>microLEDIs the natural evolution of OLED idiotMicroLED will replace OLED eventually, its not a competing technology, its an iterative upgrade
>>107881725>and want Micro/Mini-LED to replace it>miniled>>107872512>microled>>107878700>>107872469
>>107881743That's some insecure childlike behavior. Most well adjusted people can be honest with themselves.
>>107881743Holy cope.When I go into someones home and see an OLED I instantly notice how good it isI bought a thinkpad from someone using a C2 as a PC Monitor, mindblowingIf I as a third party instantly notice, I highly doubt they regret>>107881774yep
>>107881725Too bad, it's here to stay for the time being.I don't want it to go or even get better, I like rubbing my nipples to the idea that retards and poorfags are missing out on it. The quality of OLED is truly something else. t. I'll just buy a new one when it burns in.
People always make fun of air coolers. Is it because it is deprecated technology?
>>107881034There's no such thing as perfect silence.But there's different noises, and some are much better to listen to continuously than others.High pitched humming is worse than low pitched humming. Fan noise can be soothing. This shit is not. It really is that simple.
>>107869298It's the same as always Air cooling with a proper heatsink is enough 99% of the time ever since vapor chambers became a thingWater cooling is only necessary if you're running danger-tier overclocks 24/7. In which case, you do a custom loop and you build it wellAIOs are a massive meme pushed by youtube tech shills and should be avoided
>>107875133I got the Silver Arrow during that era still working fine on AM4. Pretty sure AM5 will work given how the mount works.
>>107871997You have to hear the fans either way since your GPU comes with an air cooler
>>107880916No, you wouldve had a pump failure after 5-10 years. So from 2009-2025, you likely would've had 2, if not 3 pump failures in that tmie.

>>107867485Fan shit the bed. It spins but not enough and I struggle to stay under 80 C. I've never replaced a fan on a notebook before, they never lasted long enough for the fan to die. Are they all the same? Do I buy them by size? How do I mount it on the heatpipe? It has a couple of tiny screws and a little copper tab, I think other than that it is glued/taped to it? Do other thinkpad models share the same fan? Are chinese fans good?
My T480, I bought new back when, is starting to die, it is the single best piece of computing hardware I ever owned, internal battery is at 67% and external is 76%, replaced the original 3 cell with the biggest one available down the line. The hinges start to squeak, and the left side is getting stuck from time to time. My backcover has a crack as well.I have the i7 MX150 model with 32GB RAM and currently 2 SSDs, one 2242 512GB and a 2TB SATA.Should I restore it to pristine condition, or should I upgrade and if yes to what? I was thinking maybe a Framework, but I will miss my NewPad keyboard, as all newer laptops have less key travel.
>>107881395>Are they all the same? No.>Do I buy them by size?Buy one that says it's for your laptop model.>How do I mount it on the heatpipe? It has a couple of tiny screws and a little copper tab, I think other than that it is glued/taped to it?Yes. Little bendy copper tabs and tape. The screws are probably for the fan unit case itself and don't need to come out.>Do other thinkpad models share the same fan?Possibly, it depends.>Are chinese fans good?They're all Chinese.You should talk to a [non-jewish] doctor about your anxiety.
>>107881628Batteries are wear items that need replacement periodically. Hinges are fiddley but doable to replace. If it meets your computing needs, you should probably fix it.However, it sounds like you already have the upgrade bug and it can't be cured until you buy a newer, inferior product and realize you hate it. Then comes the coping and regret.You want us to give you permission to CONSOOM and I won't. Others might.
>>107881679I am fine with repairing the laptop, I have a M3 Max 16in MacBook from work and I hate the keyboard enough to keep my T480 around, and I know my way around a laptop to repair it. I am thinking of maybe getting a different MB without the Nvidia trash, but that would bump up the parts cost significantly. From around 100 bucks to 200+. And it is still an old laptop after all.
How far away is medical technology from tetrochromatic implants?If you don't know, some women have a genetic mutation where they have 4 functional color cones in their eyes, allowing them to see a new dimension of colors compared to normal humans.
>>107879575From what I have read, you'd be able to discern more shades in what we perceive to be the color orange, so an RGB value of 0xFF8100 would look noticeably brighter than 0xFF8000 to somebody with the mutant cone.
Add ultraviolet or infrared cones instead those would be more useful

It's so sad that we can't have things like this anymore and instead get RGB slop and glass panels. Imagine, how pleasant to have one giant 400mm fan spinning at a virtually silent 500RPM, which blew enormous amounts of cool air directly onto every single chip, component, and heatsink on the board, as well as your storage devices and PSU. Now we have to deal with 40mm chipset fans running at ludicrous RPMs and oversized fuckhuge expensive air coolers for the CPU.Are there any signs of hope for true aircooling enthusiasts?
