Decided to see how the WiFi was on my #ThinkPad P14s Gen 1 AMD using an AX200 and it works perfectly ! I get 300 x 100 on WiFi versus 970 by 100 on my lan FTTH connection. So I'm quite impressed. #OpenBSD openbsd runbsd

Well I've only gone and done it now ! Yep you guessed it #OpenBSD is successfully running on my old #ThinkPad P14s Gen 1 AMD albiet a tad slower than my i5 Dell Optiplex desktop on boot. I've still to finish getting things the way I like but that's no issue.

Bonjour
mon laptop vient de décéder (clavier dead, écran dead) 😭
est-ce une bonne idée de racheter un #acer (j'aime bien l'ergonomie des acer) qui tournera avec une #debian ? Ou je risque d'avoir des soucis d'incompatibilité ? (j'ai un souci de carte wifi avec l'acer du boulot, avec debian, je ne peux pas avoir de wifi du tout)
Sinon je prendrai un #thinkpad récent, si je trouve ce qui corresepond à mes besoins
#linux

My new #ThinkPad nubbin arrived! Very comfy and responsive.

Close-up photo of a black 3D-printed trackpoint nubbin between the B, G and H keys on a Lenovo TrackPoint Keyboard that, by the shine on the keys and schmutz in the gaps, has seen regular use. The nub is concave with a raised rim and little bumps inside.

@RetroFox Lovely collection, which is your favorite? Probably the W701ds, right? Very nice machine.

Im afraid, there is no such thing as having too much ThinkPads 🥸

#RetroComputing #ThinkPad

A cupboard full of roughly 85 ThinkPads, next to another cupboard full of retro machines and software boxes.

I just installed a two months old bios/firmware on my 2018 #ThinkPad T480. Meanwhile HP DevOne - zero firmware updates since it was released. Good job HP! Excellent example on how you support #Linux users.

I am very happy!

It took me two hours to figure out how to work around #ThinkPad T480 keyboard backlight firmware bug on #OpenBSD but I got it where I wanted it. Now it lights up on cold boot, on reboot, and on resume.

Yay! blobcatdance

Inspired by this https://piaille.fr/@Zenie/115337522067362666 @Zenie toot and corresponding blogpost, I rewrite my #Emacs configuration in the "old style" and wrote a blogpost about it:

It works, my problems with some configuration bits are disappeared, but Emacs now starts slower. But this is not a problem for me because I'm using Emacs daemon and all my configuration loads in 8 seconds even in the #Thinkpad X220 with i7 drgn_happy_blep
