Doubt it was the thinkpad's fault. Sleep and bluetooth is still a shitshow on linux.

Where is it, if I may ask?

There are no similar APUs in the same price range. Unless you consider regular i5 CPUs as APUs, which they technically are.

I don't understand data caps, is it a US thing?

> I always see people remark "wow look how snappy old computers were" when they're essentially built like $10,000 machines if you were to actually have those specs at that time.

But the question is that, if you were to spend $10,000 or more today will you experience the same snappiness.

I would argue that it's impossible to replicate the low-latency experience of "retro" systems today with the overhead of modern software; no matter how much you are willing to spend.

Anyone considering to switch should keep in mind that these are projects with very different philosophies.

Neovim is always chasing the shiny new things; while that's exiting it comes with breaking changes, general instability and the possibility of changes that you might not like.

Vim is the exact opposite. You can drop in a .vimrc from 20 years ago it will most likely work fine. It should be noted that this focus on stability does not necessarily constrain innovation (eg. vim9script), it just sets a conservative pace of improvements.

I've got 1 word for you.

Metaverse.

> I don't want to offend anyone.

I like your intention, but that is impossible.

1337x is a very good alternative.

In a video with Will Tennyson he mentioned that he keeps his body fat at 5%. Such low numbers will naturally give you a sunken look.

Using the word _capitalism_ here might be too much of an umbrella term. We cannot describe everything that is wrong with the world as capitalism.

So the only way Linux can become relevant is by becoming a dumb terminal for a web browser?

> Sounds familiar.

I cannot decide whether it's an honor or an insult to be called a _fascist sympathizer_ for opposing the authoritarian suppression of speech.

> Anyone claiming to exist in this middle space is in practice a republican, just without the conviction that's typical to that party's base.

So it's basically, "If you're not with us, you're against us?"
