I am looking to upgrade the T480s screen to a QHD one as per this guide: https://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=127439
but i am having trouble finding the screen and cable (and where i live it is preferable to order from aliexpress as opposed to ebay). The possible screens are: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008508444766.html, https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000983549000.html, https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007453220563.html. However i haven't find a cable and still don't know about the screen sellers. Any anons that can help a bit?
>>
T480: 32gb ram, 2tb SATA SSD, i5-8250u, 2 batteries, USB C Dock gen2, thunderbolt 23.0, and thermal paste recently applied. Seems suspiciously well taken care off. Seller is asking about 280-350 euros. Go for it or wait until I can find a T14? So far seems the only reasonable one I can find on the market around here.

>>106525367
that's not an unreasonable offer, especially if it comes with the dock. for 280 I'd go for it personally. kinda sucks it comes with a SATA instead of NVMe but that can be upgraded later if you need to
>2 batteries
one external + one spare external on top of the internal one, or just the normal internal + external combo? what capacity is the external?
>>106525090
for the cable you just need to find a 40-pin eDP cable I believe. just be careful because there are 2 variants for the cable, one 40-pin for touch screen, and one 40-pin for higher resolution. you want SKU 01YR503 iirc

Do you mean babby as in easy or babby as in more minimal?
If you are open to straying away from emacs proper like that then I'd suggest taking a look at lem. It's not really "babby" emacs, but it has very good defaults and many keybindings are the same.
So you can use it like a "just works" emacs.

Linus, Brodie and all other onions redditors are completely in the wrong, as usual.
When you have high IQ talented people, like Elon Musk, Drew Devault, or, indeed, Kent Overstreet, who want to move fast, you LET them develop at their own pace. You don't cripple them just to appease low performers

That is the problem with the Linux kernel, everything moves at the speed of the weakest (slowest) chain, and Linus is too dumb to understand that those slowest chains are the problem, not the excellent programmers like Kent Overstreet who are just leagues ahead in terms of IQ.
Linus not understanding this is why Linux is still subpar to proprietary on many fronts, despite massive funding and corporate involvement.

BTW, Kent Overstreet is the author of BCacheFS, currently the most advanced filesystem for GNU/Linux.

>>106521193
only thing to add is that you and kent need to understand that rules are rules.

linux is developed since decades and kent is only a small part of a massive system of independent individuals and corporations.
the needs of the many over the needs of the few and rules are a way to enforce this.

i'm not advocating politics here.
i'm just advocating some measure of stability and tradition in a highly chaotic world which software development is.

i would love to have bcachefs as an alternative to btrfs and zfs
feels like sperging over rules which everyone else seems to have no problem to abide by is only counter-productive to that goal
>>
>>106524632
i need more file systems, not less.
bcachefs seems to be well made.
btrfs is a good enough system for single drive use, snapshots are great.
zfs is great but is geared more to expensive hardware and is less integrated.

we need MORE. i really hope this conflict resolves into a nothingburger and they can keep on working on it together.

Krita and GIMP don't have much overlap in their userbases, as far as I know. Both are excellent. Krita's workflow is a little closer to Photoshop.
Also, fuck you, GIMP rocks.
Medibang Paint is another good one, but it has ads unless you buy the Pro version.. It is my go-to on Android, along with Snapseed. I really like Medibang Paint's warp tool, it is pretty great, but GIMP's is something else... to the point that I need more practice with it, lel, as I'm too used to Medibang Paint's. I haven't figured out how to accomplish warping like how Medibang and GIMP do it as far as Krita. That's one of the tools I use the most, so I tend not to use Krita often, and when I do, it is mostly for redrawing or modifications that don't require warping, other wise I'd use one of the other apps.. I'm more about modifying stuff, so I lean towards other apps rather than Krita, but any of these three are , for me at least, adequate for drawing and redrawing stuff. GIMP and Krita both work well with my vintage Wacom tablet when I want to draw more, but any drawing I do tends to be related to modifying stuff rather than drawing from scratch like most folks that draw do..
>>
>>106525976
I use GIMP but not for drawing. It's not meant fro drawing. It's literally the first sentence in this documentation. I use it for editing photos, not actual drawing.
https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-using-rectangular.html

I hate ads so no thanks. I might just try Krita or find a crack for PaintTool Sai.

>After almost five decades on air, the future of satellite TV remains uncertain beyond 2029 with broadcasters reluctant to commit to the platform for longer.

A decision needs to be made within the next two years if satellite TV services from Sky and/or Freesat will continue. That’s because the current fleet of satellites are reaching their end of life dates and any replacement satellite needs to be commissioned at least three years in advance.

Why in the everliving shit does GGN not have any competition? There's a ton of tv/film/anime trackers, yet games are rare. You can download any scene release under the sun off of jewsnet obviously, but there's only a single game private tracker that matters. Mostly talking about archival, since general trackers also carry games but anything non-slop is dead within weeks if not days after the initial upload.
