So why're you still using a kernel whose main developer says he doesn't give a shit about security, /g/?

Other business laptops are also welcome in /tpg/ (e.g. Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™
If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
/g/ suggests:
> X220 for Small/Portable
> T420 for standard size

P50/70 release is imminent.

Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>They’re really cheap when you buy a used one.
>Keyboards feel excellent while typing (yes, even the newer ones).
>Great durability thanks to the inclusion of rollcages and use of glass fiber reinforced plastic for the chassis. The keyboard is splash proof and spilled liquids will drain out.
>Utilitarian design - e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking solutions that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for almost every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing on the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

Where can I go to find a used x220 in Melbourne?
Bumping ded thread.
Germanfag here, currently with an x200s WXGA+.
I can buy a T420s with 80gb mSata-SSD, 4GB Ram, new fan and the Full-HD display + adapter (not installed) in very good condition (except for the battery) for 450€, should I do it?
Where can I get the T420s-adapter at the moment? I missed the groupbuy in the german thinkpadforum and it seems I cant get the adapter otherwise :/
Hello friendos, I've been recently getting into the idea of getting an x tablet series, but I'm currently a bit confused.
People are cheering on for the x230T for the valuable specs and battery time, and the x201T for the old keyboard, the great aspect ratio and so on, but I've gotten nothing but regret from people who had invested in the x220T, what's exactly wrong with it compared to the two?

>>51292715
>mfw using kernel 4 since release on fedora
>>51292740
we get kernel updates slowly because meister shuttleworth goes into orbit for extreme kernel testing, to make sure us ubantoo babbys are protected from danger :]]
>>51292715
> Who Else Linux Kernel 4?
Everyone except for a few losers who use outdated shit.
Who else misses the bright and colorful motherboards we used to have?
Computers were just more fun back then.

I can't find any ;_;
I want fun colorful shit, I'm tired of leet gaming bullshit. If you want premium you have to put up with it.
All right /g/. Let's do this again.
What was Apple thinking in putting this out if they are targeting the power user? iPad Pro doesn't run OS X and it makes the iPad Pro incapable of drawing the full productivity suite against SP4.
Why is it that Microsoft doesn't include LTE and GPS modem with SP4 when this is a very common usage scenario? Moreover, why is it that there's no power cover to extend endurance of the SP4?
Is Apple really capable of topping the Intel Iris graphics in 3D? Most won't have much illusion about hardcore gaming...

>Why is it that Microsoft doesn't include LTE and GPS modem with SP4 when this is a very common usage scenario?
Because you can just plug one into the USB port.
Also considering the fact that the vast majority of people own a 3/4G phone that is able to create a hotspot it's almost redundant.
>>51292742
That means Microsoft is throwing its arms up over the convergence in mobility in a way. Their own Windows Phone is a distant third place as it is right now. Apple can reliably do this with iPad given their iPhone offerings, but they still retain LTE modem as a potential option for its users.
>>51292761
You can reliably do this with any smart phone, assuming your service provider isn't some ass that tries to restrict it's use.
Just ordered mine. My first day-one buy ever. How about the rest of you fa/g/s?
Nice, welcome to the Family.
I already have a Galaxy Tab Pro, it's the same size and costs half as much.

is it difficult to code apps? im thinking of doing it for a carreer
>>51292543
not hard to code.
hard to make something good that people like and use.
>>51292543
if you make an app, don't bank on its success. put out a lite version along with the pay version and get some sweet ad money.

Should I get an i7 6700K or save 130 and get a i5 6600K?
>>51292458
What are you planning on doing?
>>51292465
>>51292458
i5, if you're asking this question you're probably in need of an i3 but you'll figure that out later, faggot.
>>51292458
return the 1151 mobo. get a 5820k and a X99 mobo
Are there any support groups for people with computer addiction?
Is there a support group for people addicted to drinking water?
Sure there are.
>>51292211
Yeah, I get the shakes whenever I stop drinking water for more than a few days.
Lately I've been getting triggered by the thought of watermelons.
Spider won't get out of my modem.
What do?
Canned air, flip upside down and freeze it.
Or
Tape, seal hole. Comeback a month later.
Or
Stop being a little bitch

I work for GoDaddy. Ask me anything.
>>51291897
Why after $0.99 for the first year did my domain increase in price by more than 20 times when it came time to renew? When I decided not to, why did the price go up another 10 times, and require a paid auction account? In other words, how is what your company does legal?
>>51291897
Why does godaddy alienate more than half their potential customer base with such crappy advertising? The amateur advertisements by local companies is better both in quality and content.
TL:DR
Why does godaddy suck so hard?
>>51291897
Why do the websites they host for me all hang up on load on one stupid image?
