Are the m40x a meme? Because I'm about to fall for it.
>>52216042
Not any more of a meme than the 50x, if you have a good deal on it then it's not a bad buy

Why would anyone want to buy or use ThinkPads?
>Incredibly overpriced when new
>Shitty screens
>Poor battery life
>Comes with clunky Windows as standard, can't opt out
>Terrible touchpad with no buttons
>Heavy
>Plastic chips and cracks when dropped
>Speakers are unusable
sage.
>Incredibly overpriced when new
Everyone who shills for them on /g/ buy them used
>Shitty screens
Debatable
>Poor battery life
Thats because the battery is small as fuck
>Comes with clunky Windows as standard, can't opt out
You can install whatever OS you want
>Terrible touchpad with no buttons
Your picture literally has buttons
>Heavy
Not really
>Plastic chips and cracks when dropped
and the roll cage on the inside protects the components
>Speakers are unusable
Most laptop speakers suck
>with no buttons
idiot
but yeah the trackpad is kind of shitty
Under the desk or on the desk?
And why?
Under the desk. Short power cables and risk of falling.
>>52345282
There is a downside to having a computer on the desk, and that is less room and more noise (in most situations). Under the desk or behind the desk gives more deskroom.
>>52345282
For airflow on the desk
For sane people and the desk being usable as desk (work and not having to worry about spilling shit) it goes under

Buying anything other than an iPhone is a reactionary act: you are choosing not to buy an iPhone for some reason (spoken or unspoken): either because you hate Apple, or are trying to save money, or harbor philosophical beliefs of what your technology should allow you to do, etc. No one chooses to buy an Android or what have you (obviously). There's always some psychological turmoil lurking just beneath the surface of that decision.
But not just at the time of purchase. No! Then you constantly need to bother your friends and family about how XYZmessenger is way better...

Counterpoint: it's just a phone.
>>52343519
If you view it as just a phone you would by the shittest model. If you buy it as a smart phone you buy it as a status symbol, and no matter how 'flashy' your android phone might be, people will still think you're poor.
There are much cheaper android phones, good for burners, etc. Not sure why somebody would buy a non-iphone for the price of an iPhone though, as iPhones have been unanimously rated as the best smartphones on the market, every year since release.

They run perfectly smooth on my Core M machine. You must be having like 1-2 GB of RAM.

>When the fuck did simplicity become outdated
You don't understand, desktop programs are slowly getting deprecated, with a few exceptions for professional ones.
For most ordinary computing tasks, web apps running in the browser are pretty much the future.
What you're asking for is similar to: why did humans complicate their lives with cars, when stage-coaches were just fine? Urban life based on oil just made everything so complicated. We could have just kept...

No. What OP is describing is like the horrendous flash websites in the early 00's and the terrible GeoCites sites of the 90's.

amd cpu's:
>fx 8350
had it overclocked to 4.4ghz. it was truly a house fire but it overclocked like a champ.
>phenom II x4 965
overclocked to 3.8ghz and ran nice and toasty but the thing was a beast.

i like screwing around with hardware?
k6-2 300 mhz - hated it every day and wished i could afford a real pentium 2 450 mhz or something nice.
2.4B northwood pentium 4 - raped and pillaged all of the villages
amd 3620 llano apu - cheap quad core i never should have bought but it was a cheap HP machine and i still use it occasionally to game away from home. not with the apu obviously.
amd bobcat core apu in a laptop - absolute dog shit but would play ut99 and ut2k4 on the go which is all i cared for
amd 4500m - would actually play skyrim on medium and pretty much any game up to 2007 on...

Yes, it is a good degree. However CS is incredibility saturated with new kids thinking they can be the next Zuckerberg or create the next Reddit. When you get this degree and look for a job ask yourself a these things:
>What do I want to do?
This is something you can be asked in any high paying job such as Google, Apple, etc. Many people don't have the answer to this or at least a proper one. A common...

Does anyone have that video of Linus from Linus Tech Tips freaking out and breaking things? I never saw the video, but someone posted something about it a few days ago, and I forgot to bookmark the post.
>>52333319
he looks like a fudge packer
Google Linus drop tips
Search "linus asus ces 2016" but be forewarned: language
He destroyed a laptop/external video card solution and an external monitor at asus' own kiosk at the tradeshow
Whatever meager fame and riches the internet brought him has finally gone to his head
didnt see a battlestation thread in the catalog
