RAM-Preise explodieren weiter, Hersteller hamstern
PC-Selbstbauer haben wenig zu lachen. Die Speicherpreise steigen rasant – 16 GByte gibt es praktisch nicht mehr unter 100 Euro.

That page on the Lenovo website looking at pros and cons of Android PCs was... apparently not about Google's upcoming Android PC platform at all. The web page has since been removed. https://9to5google.com/2025/11/15/lenovo-android-os-for-pc-support-page-statement/ #AndroidPC #Lenovo
With Android coming to PCs, Lenovo outlines some of the pros (lightweight design, touchscreen compatibility and a lot of apps), and cons (limited desktop features, limited gaming support, and many apps weren't made for mouse & keyboard). https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/knowledgebase/exploring-the-best-android-os-for-pc-in-2025/ #AndroidPC #Lenovo #Android
Rumor has it that Lenovo's 5th-gen Android gaming tablet will have an 8.8 inch, 3040 x 1904px, 165 Hz LCD display, a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen5 processor, LPDDR5x-9600 memory and UFS 4.1 storage. Meanwhile we're still waiting for the 4th-gen model to arrive in the US. https://www.ithome.com/0/894/475.htm #LenovoLegionTab #LenovoLegionY700 #GamingTablet #Lenovo
(3/3)…I've spent my entire career using #IBM laptops knowing this…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust
…& then after IBM sold #Lenovo, I was then using laptops made by people w/ strong ties to a human-rights-violating regime.
So, let's have perspective: IBM has still never apologized for *literally* helping the Nazis & #Framework may still be the “least evil” of *traditional* laptop companies.
But, this incident does make me wanna desperately find way to make @mntmn's #MNTReform suit my computing needs.
Just 8 days after I began this thread re: maybe switching to a #FrameworkLaptop, a scandal broke that #Framework directly funded toxic individual FOSS developers.
It's not clear to me yet whether an outright boycott is warranted, but what's already obvious is Framework acts like a classic VC-funded tech startup in making foolish unforced errors in policy decision-making b/c they're too busy “moving fast & breaking things” to pay attention to important details (such as past CoC violations)…(1/3)

According to the #Lenovo M920q specs, the machine can only run 32GB of RAM. However, the 8th Gen i5 CPU can address 128GB of RAM. So I purchased 2x32GB DDR4 SODIMM and packed it out. After some memory training, the machine came to life with the full 64GB running nicely. Excellent #bhyve hypervisor as there is no hyper-threading on that CPU to worry about. #gettohosting

Furries and Gentlegeeks, stop what you’re doing. Reddit pointed out the holly reason for 3D printers to exist: The 6-bays ThinkNAS
Evan Blass has dropped a whole bunch of leaked promo images for the upcoming Lenovo Legion Go 2 handheld gaming PC with a 144 Hz, 500 nit display, 74 Wh battery, fingerprint sensor, and up to Ryzen Z2 Extreme processor. #Lenovo#LenovoLegionGo2#HandheldGamingPChttps://x.com/evleaks/status/1962355111931289871
So, what’s a good used #laptop model? Do you have a fave?
I think the #Dell Latitude’s are swell looking, the Thinkpad’s as well (even if they’re a bit overrated).
Needs an IPS display and should be below 15”. Should preferably not be more than 5–7 years old or so. I need some performance for photo editing on the go.
Should run Linux/Fedora well. I don’t want to mess around with Wi-Fi card drivers, so there should be support for that in the kernel.

"If you bought a ThinkPad between 1995 and 2017, it was probably designed under the oversight of David W. Hill, who served as lead designer under both IBM and Lenovo for those 22 years. We caught up with Hill, who today runs his own firm, ThinkNext Design, to talk about the history of ThinkPad, what drove him to make key design decisions, and the products he wanted to come out with but just couldn't."
