oh i mean lemmy.zip is a pretty big instance imo, I think it’s barely smaller than shit

am i a bad citizen :((

I personally like being on a fairly large instance though, it guarantees reliability and trust to an extent

really weird, my touchscreen laptop worked fine

what’s the problem? if you want bigger buttons and stuff you could try gnome?

lost on lemmy?

I think a better place to post this is somewhere like !fediverse@lemmy.world , this is a shitpost (meme) community

did anyone actually read the pdf?

here is the wikipedia article about the organisation doing the “research”. read their partners list and see if your conclusion changes

what’s the problem with syncthing?

the chinese aren’t worse engineers than americans, they’re just usually more incentivised to reduce cost than increase quality

anyway I think the thinkpad design team is still in japan

they’re built way better than their t14/p14s counterparts though, iirc they use the magic alloy for the chassis instead of plastic

so?

i bet the “foundational changes” are all vibecoded

the windows file explorer and terminal have horrible performance, it’s one of the reasons I’ll never switch back

holy shit that’s actually competent hardware, and you can get them for way cheaper than an equivalent pc

i think I might have to start looking for one

would be interesting but I bet the FSF won’t like it

i quite like the cinnamon theme in mint, I think it looks really nice, especially with a vibrant wallpaper. In my opinion it’s modern but simple and relaxing to look at

c for smartphones

Brand new tech powered by Proof Of Shit instead of Proof Of Work?? how wonderful

bro 3 hours wtf

apparently they use small stepper motors for the dials, it’s why there’s a homing sequence at the start (where all the dials go to 0)

for now
