Voici un pouet tout à fait impopulaire...
Après 2mois1/2 de galère et un certain nombre d'heures passées à tenter de résoudre les problèmes, le #laptop du boulot #acer sous #debian n'est toujours pas fonctionnel (pas de bluetooth, ne détecte pas le printer). Et 'est TRES galère, et je n'y comprends rien, et je suis découragée, et j'ai besoin d'un ordi.
Je vais donc remettre #windows, à regret.
Je sais qu'on va me donner 1000 conseils pour ne pas, mais je n'ai pas le choix. Mais commet faire ?

I have bought a Dell Latitude E6430 laptop, sight unseen. These are about 12-13 years old now. They have an unusual rubbery sort of surround around the keyboard, which doesn't stand the test of time as well the rest of the machine. On this laptop, it has become sticky, I assume as the "rubber" breaks down. It feels unpleasant to rest your hands on as you type - as if you are touching a dissolved sweet or something.
Any thought on how I may rejuvenate this, either by rejuvenating the surface, or by covering it up, maybe with some sort of coating?
I don't think I can pass this one on as intended, unless I improve the "feel" of it. #Dell #laptop

Elektroschrott-Recycling: Bundestag vereinfacht Rückgabe

In deutschen Haushalten lagern 300 Millionen alte Laptops und Handys. Darin stecken wertvolle Rohstoffe. Das Recycling soll nun vereinfacht werden.

If you had to buy a laptop that has a good battery life and excellent Linux support, what would you buy and why?

#linux #laptop

After much deliberating I've decided to replace my ageing Thinkpad T470 with Tuxedo's Infinitybook Pro14 gen10 (AMD):

https://www.notebookcheck.net/Tuxedo-Infinity-Book-Pro-14-Gen10-Review-Linux-ultrabook-with-AMD-Zen-5-128-GB-RAM.1095463.0.html

Why @tuxedocomputers?

✅ Specs & price match
☑️ EU based, but hardware is manufactured by TongFang a Chinese OMD.
✅ Allow customization & DIY repairs
✅ Offer support & share fixes
❓ Seem to support Linux ecosystem & local community
❓Sustainability is a bit vague

My first non-Lenovo laptop. Exciting!

Okay...I know my followers, and I know most of my followers have like half a dozen spare laptops in a storage bin in their closet, so I'm posting this on behalf of a friend who's trying to help their friend.

"""
I need assistance in the PNW for someone who is in a care facility in Oregon and destitute after being homeless and in jail.

They need a laptop shipped to them to get back online.

A used semi-recent MacBook Air with a charger would be ideal.

If you have a spare that you’re willing to ship, or if you’re willing to purchase one, confirm that it’s working, and then ship it, I will cover your costs.
"""

I'll help facilitate stuff if someone wants to lend (or reasonably sell) a laptop that fits the bill. A non-OSX laptop works too, as long as it can be easily kept up by someone who isn't normally a Linux user.

The more I see pictures of the MNT Reform Next the more I want one.

Bud I also badly need us all to fund them so we can have super premium top notch support for it, so it can suspend and last 9hr on battery.
