>>106375801Wake up.
>>106375801Use the provided MacBook for work only. At home, I have my Windows AMD+Nvidia machine to have fun on.
>>106383866>amdoof
>>106383942Yes, you should always buy the best performers, unhindered by such childish things as "brand loyalty".
>>106376883>That keyboard>Those bezels>M4 ProShirley you jest
>>106375801ThinkPad obviously
>>106375801Can I put something other than Ubuntu on the Thinkpad
>>106384936No. You also can not attach any dongles to the Macintosh.
>>106384987Probably still the thinkpad then desu
JUST
left will be easier to install linux on so id chose that
>>106375801eh, I already have my own T14, but thanks. I'll grab both
>>106375801a job could never be this based. instead you get a non T series W11 chinkpad with specs that were recommended for W7. also when you search your network drive the entire start as bar will be porn and dildos.
>what you actually get at your new job>there is no choice>you might get a better dell in the future if youre cool with the the guy who orders hardware
>>106385837Can anyone tell me why all modern laptops just look the same?
>>106376883The x200 is from 2008. How do you not know this?
>>106385982>hurr one is from 34 years ago, not 38 years ago
>>106385937because
>>106386366When you make a smug remark, you have no right to be wrong about something that is common knowledge.
>>106386438>You have no right to be wrong about something that is common knowledge.The ironing . . .

>>106386438>>106386489
>>106386482>>106386489>hasn't browsed /g/ enough to at least know about the x200Worthless newfags.>>106386514>line introduced in 2006 = everything from the same line is from 2006Putting aside this stupidity, you are again missing the point of the x200 being introduced in 2008 - their chips could be from 2007 at most. And the one in the picture is a x220, which is from 2011.Idiots.
>>106386543>is wrong>doubles down and is still wronglol
>>106386568Hypocrite.
>>106375801>ancient mac or ancient thinkpadI'm getting a new job anon
>>106386578Are you retarded or just a chat bot?
I had a choice between thinkpad p1 gen 7 and macbook 14 pro (m4)I chose thinkpad.
>>106386590Ad hominem all you want, what you did won't stop being stupid.
>>106375801I'll ask if they'll let me use linux on the thinkpad. if the answer is no, I pick the macbook
>>106386514>>106386606>what _you_ did won't stop being stupidlol
>>106386623Denying reality is not an argument.
>>106386632Look homie, I get it. You want to play stupid games all night about semantics.Core 2 != x200Core 2 is from 2006You fucked up and no one here expects you to admit it. If you aren't some shitty chat bot, than I hope you live a long time.
>>106386496That's the new standard.
>>106375801i would poop on the hr woman's FACE
>>106375801Wonder why they're giving me a 2011 ThinkPad or a 2011 MacBook. Is this a poorfag corp?
>>106375801I chose the P14s because I have actual work to do.
>>106385837If your tech job gives you a Dell, you need to find a better job.
macbook every time. imagine looking at a shitty low resolution panel when you could be looking at a clear, social class superior macbook display
>>106375801how cucked are you that you need your boss to buy you a laptop lmao
>>106386600because you're a 0.5xer
>>106388961More like 0.08xer, and my goal is to become 0.03xer by the end of the year.
>>106388959How cucked are you that your boss makes you buy your own laptop for work roflmao
macbook. They're absolute shit, but the vast majority of the other guys likely all have fagbooks and if I run into weird issues with corpo shit, at least there won't be "maybe it's just a linux problem" excuses.
>>106389281Oh also, when it inevitably shits the bed, I'm not the one that has to pay for it, I just give it to IT and they can throw me another one.
>>106389281retard take
Macbook, no doubt. Windows is so fucking bad now.
>>106389272i dont interact with computers for money op
>>106389791Then what are you doing in this thread?
>>106375801Get the mac and sell it, buy the thinkpad with some change
>>106389861making fun of you pathetic faggots that get excited about having your boss buy you shit LMAO
>>106389983I don't see anyone being excited about getting work tools
>>106375801gigachad is a clear sign of someone trying to shill poor tastes.For the record, I wouldn't work at fagman even if they paid me Epstein money. I'd rather be a poor NEET than an immoral techbro.
>>106385937virtually every piece of hardware has to be a clone of a macbook because insectoid chinks just copy the best competitor
>>106391032does your wife get turned on when you come home from work and show off the new computer your boss got you?
>>106385837>what you actually actually get at your new job >you have a choice (this vs. another snapshit laptop from HP)>you are not allowed to have x86 because someone in the c-suite who uses nothing but office 365 for his job says "it works perfectly fine" and it's the FUTURE so everyone's forced to use ARM regardless of software compatibility >the guy who orders hardware is in another continent and only speaks mandarin
>>106375801Project my superiority over others by using special snowflake laptop imported from Japan.
>>106391098why are indian and chinese so bad at original creation?
>>106391301Chink stuff is pretty kino lately.
>>106391366example?
>>106375801Exactly what I do now. Remote into a work VM I set up under Proxmox using my M4 Macbook pro. Thanks for the laptop I am going to pawn it now.
>>106391296>that tiny space barlmao even
>>106375801>a fagman joblollmao even
>>106391634Looking at the wear mark it could be half the size.
>>106375801I'll have a dell or an hp thanks.
>>106392525imagine working at a place that poor
>>106391634still longer than your penis
>>106375801Thinkpad, removable battery, plenty of sockets, cute picture of birds.Macbook, glued battery, probably just usb-c, picture homosexual man meme.
>>106393381works on my machine
>>106375801The one on the right is correct. Just gotta let the ducklets cross the road.
>>106375801t. poorfag itoddler using old and used fagbook larping as someone having job
>>106375801I'll take the cute ducks over the faggot reddit meme
>>106391296*India
>>106375801>ugly ass shitbook vs elegant macbookez choice
>>106375801That must be some government job in some fucking Podunk because both provided options are ancient and in sorry state. Cleaning streets would probably pay no less, be more stable and provide non-zero chance to find better computer laying around some trash container.
>>106375801Obviously the one with the ducks, what a retarded question.
>>106399276That is cute as fug.
>>106375801It doesn't matter which one I use. What matters is which AI I use.
>>106375801I take both. Because Thinkpads and Macbooks are the only good laptops.
>>106400748Damn......
>>106375801cute ducks so I pick the left. why do you have my pic on the right bro thats weird.
>>106375801Take the fagbook, sell it, buy 5 thinkpads.
>>106375801Cute ducks
>>106385837literally work on this with 64 ram and integrated gpu 24/7> rendering 4k in after effects almost melts the fucking keys> my t520 thinkpad is fasterrmaj with 16gb ram
>>106375801I'd pick the x220 and pray that it comes with the IPS panel option. The next workday I'd sneak a precision Philips head through the metal detector and keyboard swap that qwertz with a co-worker's freedom-layout in under 60 seconds while they are out getting their complementary onions latte.
I choose the nipple.
>>106404373IPS looks weird and hurts my eyes after a while.
>>106402018and still everyone uses a MBP for work. kys pajeet.
>>106404680>everyone>kys pajeet>>>/plebbit/
>>106375801Both are trash, but the IBM is less trash.>but anon, whic-System76 caught my eye.
>>106404541Then you have the wrong IPS panel. The factory TN truly giving passive matrix a run for it's money in terms of dogshit tier.
>>106375801I WISH thinkpads still came with 7 row keyboards.
>>106375801>ancient IBMvs>ancient applewho cares they're both shit.
>>106391272>everyone's forced to use ARM regardless of software compatibility What are some notable software that are incompatible with ARM?
me on the left
>>106376838no
>>106385837Have this at work. Year before me they got thinkpads. Year after me the laptops were all shipped configured with windows cloud. All my work is done through RDP anyway so don't care about the performance at all.
>>106375801quit
>>106412737fpbp
>>106375801I HATE OSX, i hate it with a passion. every time i touch that fucking OS, i hate it more and more.If i had actually use it daily, i would quickly turn into AM.So yes, give me the ubuntu aids laptop.I probably would swap for cinnamon if i could tho.
>>106375801>you've just landed a fagman jobI would set everything on fire and leave, so the laptop option is irrelevant.
>>106408572basically every software you need for work which are almost always invariably made by literallywho b2b micro-monopolies
>>106375801both are still an upgrade on the dell i have from my job
>>106375801lenovoreplacing the battery wont cost me 6.666$ + my left ballim a DT guy anyways, i wont use it as much more than a dumb terminal
>>106375801Me and beaver? We go way back. January 2025 was a good time.
>>106415583>lenovo
>>106414081why don't you answer the question:What are some notable software that are incompatible with ARM?
>>106375801>what do?Build an actually decent computer that can also play any game amazingly, buy a gpu with a fuckton a vram """for running local llms""" and write it off as a business expense
>>106415583t, faggot
