I'm in the market for a laptop. Will probably run Linux. What's a non-pozzed option? Are Thinkpads (T line) still good? My last Linux laptop was a T470s, and I got nice mileage out of it. Also should I look at arm processors? They seem to be quite good.
>>109105948any laptop will be finethe only arm laptops that work with linux are apple1 m1 and m2 and maybe some chrome books
>>109105965What's a good option with at least 20 cores and 32 GB ram? I enjoy my desktop with a 7950x, would love some kind of comparable performance, but that's probably not realistic
>>109105973focus on battery efficiency, aesthetics, screen quality, strong chassis, nice keyboard and touchpadchasing performance in a laptop is a fool's errand
>>109105990You're probably right. I'm just salty about the work laptop I've been using for the last 3-4 years being absolute shit that can't even open a few tabs without choking. But probably at least 75% of the fault is just Winblows.
>>109105973probably some piece of shit macbook which sounds like it should suit you perfectly considering you're a fucking faggot.

>>109105948>im in the market for getting a hunchback>im in the market for buying ewaste>im in the market for frying my balls with hot x86 mobile processors get a macbook instead if you’re gonna undergo the humiliation ritual might as well get good quality
I got a Lenovo T14s Gen 6 ThinkBook laptop (Intel Ultra 7 … not the AMD Ryzen or Qualcom Snapdragon versions) back at the start of the year and I put Linux Mint on it and it’s been working great so far. This isn’t the very latest Mint but whichever one was current back in January.
>>109105948just buy a macbook poorfag
>>109107113But I'm not gay
>>109107113>Apple acquired several Israeli companies and conducts limited R&D activities in Israel focusing on semiconductor technologies. Apple matches worker donations to IDF and illegal settlements. Apple got all subcontractors in Israel. They are fully supporting state of Israel.
>>109105948I like my p14s g2agot refurb on ebay for 280 bucks
>>109108128How is this shit even legal?
>>109105948>Also should I look at arm processors?For ARM, only the macbook m1/m2 are worth using in Linux or possibly the CIX based cheap shit. some tinker trannies reverse engineering macbook hardware is somehow beyond the capability of Qualcomm engineers.
>>109108128Just a "funny coincidence" goy!
>>109105948
>>109105948doesn't matter, every os is pozzed(except for grapheneos)
>>109106003>probably at least 75% of the fault is just Winblowscan confirm, I tested this last week at work. my daily laptop is 2 years old, grabbed an 8 year old laptop with less RAM. then compiled sqlite, took 3 minutes on windows on the new laptop, 54 seconds on linux on the old laptop, its absolutely ridiculous
>>109105948arm is a meme as of {present day, present time}, get x64 or go the full mile and get a riscv framework
>>109105948I still got T420.If you want to upgrade your T470s is still good.If you MUST upgrade, got for T14 then.
