make a notch on the head with a grinding pen or similar implement so u can stick a flathead in there

Just tell me what the fuck to buy to replace my M1 Macbook Air 2020.
Damnit I kinda don't want to do this. The battery life is incredible. But Macos suck so much fucking cock it's unbelievable. I also just need to plug my lap to my office's monitor and go back to linux (I already use Asahi on my mac).
Something modern but Thinkpad and not expensive please
My thinkpad history if it matters:
>T420
>T430
>X230
>T480 for like a month
Lost all of them for reasons

all my laptops have been hand-me-downs but I have to buy one for the first time ever

I runlinux, I need it for browsing the internet, usually 20 or so tabs open, watching videos from streaming sites. I don't care about battery life, I don't care about weight or it being clunky - in fact, the sturdier it is, the better. I'd like to prioritize security but I don't want to go through the whole pain of opening the thing up to flash the bios. I just bought a 5090 and 128gb ddr5 ram so I'd like the laptop to be on the cheaper side.

I'm in Australia so my options are limited. T14, T14s gen 1 & 2 are plentiful, there's a bunch of other stuff on ebay but I don't know what to look for exactly.

Anyone had the issue of the mic-mute button being constantly lit on their T480? I think it started happening after one of the recent kernel updates but I am not sure. I can still turn the LED on and off with the appropriate console commands and it still mutes and unmutes the mic but the LED doesn't toggle when I use the button. I use i3 if that is important.

it's true, I ahve a 1TB SSD and don't even know how to fill it

>>108506442
This is actually true. However, people (who are not me) are using up all the space, therefore it's not up to me. You can barely even install an OS and a web browser on that amount of space anymore.

>>108506442
it was true at the time.

Just install it and enable it with Systemd. It just works. Dnscrypt Proxy is great.

>>108506640
resolved only does DoT, it doesn't do DoH.

>>108506666
Dnscrypt Proxy does everything:
>DoH
>DoT
>DoQ
>Dnscrypt
>Unencrypted classic DNS on port 53
You name it.

Another more lightweight option is Adguard's dnsproxy which is very good:
https://github.com/AdguardTeam/dnsproxy

>>108502588
Well you did the exact thing you werent supposed to do!

>>108506680
>>108501369
In fact to answer your question exactly, with dnsproxy you can do something like this to start a shell that uses DoH:

>In one terminal

git clone https://github.com/AdguardTeam/dnsproxy.git && cd dnsproxy && make
sudo ./dnsproxy -u https://dns.quad9.net/dns-query --http3 -l 127.53.53.53 -v

Depending on coding to get a job is retarded. Doing it as a hobby is still nice now and then granted you have a vision of what you're building. Even better to be self-employed. CS has gotten to the point where it only makes sense to pursue if you are an entrepreneur, and you've got experience in marketing.
