oh and even with their screens at max brightness it's still difficult to read over their shoulders. and for some reason many of them keep it at like half brightness which makes it essentially impossible. idk why they all do it i'm assuming for battery preservation reasons

i love thinkpads but lmao at them putting a usbc in and not using it for power just lmao

USB-C loving sucks for power though, especially when apple changed out their best power adapter for a lovely one like usb-c, just lol.

I hate the idea of having to sacrifice one of the my usb connectors for power though. It has nothing to do with the amount of power I will say that magsafe was already the best connector, usb-c is a step back.

the trashpads are only there so that literal children can interact with the computer until they learn to clitmouse

in fact i’m butthurt that you can’t spec a thinkpad to have no trashpad and have to diy it by snipping the flex

the x61 and some older models have no trackpad. it’s sucks for graphics / unity / GIS software etc. those are things you should have a mouse for, but you can’t even half rear end it with a nub like you can a trackpad, so it’s much worse

Does Lenovo still load them with spyware or did they stop doing that after getting caught the third time or whatever?
