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

Looking for a media player that..well just werks. One that has native support for just about every major codec and format out there as well as an easy-to-understand GUI.
I tried MPV, works fine just no UI.
Fucking Rhythmbox is shit.
Tried using Banshee, seems nice but it didn't have any support ffor any of the formats I had.
Help me /g/. I see all of you with nice ricey desktops maybe you can point me in the direction of a nice media player.
Use meme player v with gahnoo plus leenux.

about $25 for 1990 mechanical with legit white alps. backslash key not working.
worth getting it? how hard fixing that one key would be?
>>51194283
If it's just the switch that's broken, replacing it should be quite easy. You'll just have to take out the pcb and desolder the broken switch and solder in a new one.
I'm not sure where one finds alps nowadays, the easiest would probably be to take a switch from another key on the board.
If the flaw is in the PCB, then you probably can't repair it, though that seems unlikely since the adjacent switches probably wouldn't work either if that were the case.

The internet is broken. This isn't nostalgia for the past just hatred for ads. Especially those ads that block the content by filling the whole screen until you address them. Ad blockers suck now

I bought an iPhone 4s some time ago and I had this WLAN problem after the 7.0 iOS update, where the WLAN button was just gray. I repaired the WLAN antenna and now after the 9.0 update I got the same problem. I'm officially fed up with Apple. Soo I would like to buy a new phone that's reliable, stable and well built and doesn't cost more than 150 euros.
Could you guys help me out?
What smart phone would you recommend?
iPhone 6s
a dumbphone
>4s
>I repaired it.
>4 year old and refurbished.
You have a lot more problems then apple here.
Might I suggest something other then part time after high school and higher then minimum wage?
Have you cancelled your pre-order yet?
nope
Why would I? Is that image meant to mean something to me?
stop caring about benchmarks of a phone. different phones are for different people. its a fucking phone, not a rendering PC.
let's be totally honest here, who plays non-emulated graphics heavy games on their phone while they're out? no one. the new nexuses are great because they're fun to fuck around with, and especially this year, they have awesome build quality.
/g/entlemen, how many tabs do you use on average while browsing the world wide web?

Does it really matter having a new smartphone rather than an old one?
What do you mean by old?
>>50841897
No
In fact the N9 is better than every single smartphone that comes out these days
What do you mean by new?
