Thinkpads so hard to find in the refurbished market?

I’ve been trying to find P1/X1 Extreme (Gen 1/2/3) and X1 Carbon laptops (Gen 7/8) that come in the configuration of Intel 8th/9th/10th gen (newer is better) in i7, or the AMD Ryzen equivalent of it, 16/32GB of RAM, 512GB/1TB of storage space, FHD display and preferably 2xSODIMM, if possible. No dedicated GPU, because I’m...

My assumption was that if I get a iGPU variant, I could save some money, and also because I’ll not be having to deal with the headache of having to configure Nvidia with non-free software. FHD because a 4k screen will probably use nore battery, and require more computational power.

About the RAM, the X1 Carbon has soldered RAM, and I can only choose between 8 and 16GB. No OS, again for saving money. And finally i7 because older processors are a bit weak, so I wanted it to run for a long time.

I also tried doing a vague search, eliminating most of my restrictions (except the iGPU requirement), but I could not find anything.

RSP is a proper communist party, with it’s root in the HSRA, the original revolutionary communist party in British India. Communist parties break away a lot, because they disagree with each other. Coming with names is hard, because they’re already taken, so they have to use the word related to ‘socialism’.

velox_vulnus,

It’s almost there but, it’s still lagging behind my preference. Needs more retro and sharper corners. I’m not a fan of accent, but I also don’t like monotone scheme, like in Adwaita. Maybe something like CDE, but better colors.

velox_vulnus, (edited )

Yes, but only if you have separate partitions for root, home, boot and swap. Otherwise, it is going to be painful.

velox_vulnus,

There’s probably some generic tutorial out there, but since I’ve started to separate partitions after moving to NixOS and Guix, and self-learnt this, I’m not sure what would be a better resource for you.

velox_vulnus,

If you were not aware of it before, “murja” as a derogatory word is being weaponized towards courtesans, bar dancers and sex-worker, most of whom are women, or in some cases, transgender, by misogynists to dehumanize them.

I get it, we are conditioned to words from society that are sexist, and misogynist - I am also guilty of this, but we can make an effort to stop this, by using it in the right historical context. In accordance with the lemmy.ml site-wide rule #2, I will have to remove this post.

velox_vulnus,

Two soulless companies fighting for the first position in a monopolistic platform. Is there something to talk about?

Is it just me, or was the opening song for God of High Season 1 not that great?

I remember listening to Fly To High by Younha, and around that time, I started reading the manhwa and I was in love with it. And when I learnt about the anime becoming a reality, I was so excited about this song being used, or maybe something as good by her. Contradiction by Tyler Carter sounds like a repetitive rip-off of...

TIL that the people living near to the Ram Jhanmabhoomi had their houses destroyed and were forcibly evicted.

In all seriousness, please don’t blame me for being ignorant - the current mainstream media is filled with the vilest, most vitriolic bullshit, so I’ve stopped watching the TV, and then there’s hardly a few legitimate news sites with proper Atom/RSS support that I can keep track of.

velox_vulnus,

It is a right-wing bucket of diarrhoea, so I avoid that. If you check their YouTube videos, it should be evident that they’re not ashamed of spreading hate speech and fake news.

The backing leads have more of a low-pass, polyphonic and detuned sound, as is seen in deep house than a synthwave. The low-beats and the soothing arpeggios make them sythwave-ish. Maybe some new form of synthwave. Pastel Synthwave?

Example for a deep house lead.

There’s already Emacs, Vim, Kakoune, etc for that. Nano is supposed to be the system default for non-advanced users.

velox_vulnus,

That’s a subjective take. GNU Nano has always been the default editor for so long alongside vi. But when you say that Emacs keybindings are good for Mac user - I can’t help but wonder - what type of generalization is that? Do you have a source to back this claim?

Now, don’t get me wrong - I love Kakoune. But no one outside of the developer community will make an effort to learn atypical text editors with chords and modes.

velox_vulnus,

I’m a little mad that they have influence in Karnataka and Telangana. The communists need to do their best to retake Dakshin Kannada and Udupi back, like they did in the 1980s. Their reign improved the lives of beedi workers and poor farmers.

velox_vulnus,

That’s like saying Tetris had nothing in their game?

velox_vulnus,

The Ghost Train fight in Final Fantasy 6 is by far, one of the best part of the game. Too bad I didn’t get to complete the game entirely.

It’s different because…I’ve yet to touch grass and talk to real, breathing human.

At least it’s not a bear in the woods.

Joblessness and social isolation? After graduating at September 2022, unlike other students who already secured their jobs around March, I had nothing. And it’s still the same for me. I dread applying to jobs. It fills me with so much fear, I don’t bother. At one point I had a really bad panic attack, that I deleted all my Git accounts online, and every project backup, shut down my laptop, doing nothing for almost two month except staring the roof, because I was so done. I could not believe that I had sacrificed my teen, getting isolated, losing out on socializing, partying and all that shit. I convinced myself that this would reward me, because those cringey grind-set YouTubers told me, and that I was probably the main character or something. I completed my engineering degree with such great difficulty, because I was severely depressed, I lost all my sleep, I stopped attending classes, waking up at 12 in the noon. I’m going to be 24, and I’ve successfully wasted two years without any experience, nor any degree to back my use of time.

Now, it’s left to the INDIA coalition to convince JD(U) and TDP to leave NDA and join on their sides:

  • Nitish Kumar wants a good role to satisfy his ego. I remember how their bargaining failed because he wanted to be the prime minister - which is weird - I mean, a minority ally demanding a higher position is fucking stupid - why would the Congress ditch Mallikarjun Kharge for this doofus? Besides, he’s a Hindi imperialist bastard, who can’t respect the diversity of culture in India.

    Asserting that Hindi was the national language, Nitish Kumar reportedly launched a tirade against English which he said was imposed by the British; some later speakers switched to English after his outburst.

    The context here being that English was used as a common language, and not because of a colonial mentality.

    He’s been offered the role of deputy prime minister, which holds no special status in the Constitution, but parties are free to choose one. I hate this person so much, but there’s no choice.

  • TDP might probably demand special status for Andhra Pradesh, because the division of the state into Telangana and Andhra Pradesh resulted in the state losing the city of Hyderabad, which affected the area tremendously - and from that day, they haven’t voted INC or it’s allies.

Ruling party loses absolute majority in elections to the Indian Parliament, but likely to form government with support of allies (www.thehindu.com)

Preliminary results for the 2024 Indian General election suggest that the Bharatiya Janata Party is set to lose its absolute majority in the lower house of Parliament. However, the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) it leads is projected to cross the halfway mark. The opposition INDIA alliance is projected to more than double...

You forgot to add this - three controversial independent candidates have gained candidacy:

  • Amritpal Singh - a Sikh separatist
  • Sarabjeet Singh Khalsa - son of Indira Gandhi’s assassin, and a hardliner Sikh
  • Engineer Rashid - leader of a separatist party

Two of them - Amritpal and Rashid, may not be able to exercise their rights as members of the Lok Sabha, as they’re behind the bars.

Is it possible through 0x0.st? Or do you have the link for the same in Anna’s Archive?
