Bought this T490 a little over 3 weeks ago

I bought this thing for $130 (around $146 after shipping and tax), and I love it! It has 16GB of RAM (may upgrade to 48GB), a 256GB NVMe (may upgrade to 1TB), a Core i5-8365U, Intel UHD 620 graphics, and Arch Linux with Joe’s Window Manager. A good deal too, with the charger and an SSD (inside the ThinkPad) ready to use included. There are some listings on ebay that go for over $150 with no SSD and no charger. This deal came with BOTH.

Anyways, did I cook?

My opinion charts

The “Distro I currently use” is very complicated. I currently triple boot Fedora, FreeBSD, and Windows 11 on my main PC. And use Arch (btw) on my ThinkPad. Though I use Fedora the most out of every OS I run. I’ve been using Linux for 2 months now, and I love it. Also, I have been using FreeBSD longer than any UNIX-like desktop operating system. Since Mint was replaced by Fedora 3 weeks ago. Honorable mention (more like a shoutout) goes to Alpine, which was very fast running IceWM in a VM. I will use a similar setup one day on my old ass HP laptop. Im Personally not big on Debian-based distros, since the packages are a little old for my liking.

Doing the trend

My biggest complaint with most of these is the assumption that all socialists/communists like nationalization. I know I put nationalization on some of these. But the other options assume a market economy, which I hate more than central planning.

I use Arch, btw

I just installed Arch on my T490 this morning, and I’m loving it, and of course, I busted out the Knee-Highs. Now I can say that phrase. Also, I avoided archinstall.

Decided to do the thing

Started watching anime 6 years ago with Pokemon and Sonic X. Then I recently discovered BL.

Just switched to Fedora KDE from Mint Cinnamon

Fedora is way better than Linux Mint for so many reasons: Customizability, More up-to-date packages, smoother, and more modern.

I’m planning to replace Linux Mint in my Triple Boot setup with Fedora KDE

Reason: I’ve been using Mint for a little over a month now. Then I tried Fedora KDE in a VM, and it felt BETTER than Mint Cinnamon. More up-to-date packages, a better look and feel, and more customizable. Linux Mint packages are a little too behind for my liking anymore, ever since I tried distros with more cutting edge packages. Linux Mint’s GIMP package is very behind, with a major update happening since it was last updated. Fedora feels like my dream OS: Unfussy to use, up-to-date, yet pretty damn stable. Mint only checks off two of those boxes, but not the second one. Especially right now with 23.0 being delayed until December. I will put Mint on a VM after I install Fedora KDE, so I could still experience Linux Mint. Debian/Ubuntu-based Distros are starting to feel less and less suited “for me”.

Current setup: Acer Aspire XC-1660G with 1TB internal SSD, 32GB RAM, a Intel Core i3-10105 with UHD 630 graphics, and running Windows 11, Linux Mint 22.3 and FreeBSD 15.0.

[OC] Nakamura and Hirose walking together

Disclaimer: I am by NO MEANS, an artist. However, I’d like to share this with you before Episode 13 drops anyway. Hope you like it more than I do.

A petition to ban AI slop from this Subreddit

If you guys have such a fetish for using AI, just use Winslop 11. Rather than trying to have the AI create an OS for you, even if there’s an OS that suits you perfectly already.
