TimeNaan OP ,

Love their concept but I just can't afford it. My problem isn't finding a machine that works well with Linux. It's finding a machine that I can afford. And the stupid windows fee for something I will immediately uninstall is a big deal to me.

TimeNaan OP ,

Yet they don't sell laptops without windows in my country.

TimeNaan OP ,

Yes, but all the budget laptops from them I can find don't have that option. Only a few select higher-end gaming models come with Linux.

TimeNaan OP ,

Thank you, it seems the point of this meme is lost on some Lemmings :D

TimeNaan OP , (edited )

I already have a used ThinkPad and have been using it for many years. I'm trying to get a second laptop, but for reasons I can't choose a used one. Only new machines and in a low price bracket. There's just nothing that comes without preinstalled Windows and associated tax.

EDIT: Why is this getting downvoted?

TimeNaan OP ,

Only select top-end models in my country unfortunately.

TimeNaan OP ,

Unfortunately Framework doesn't retail in my country and that's the requirement. But that does sound very enticing, I'll keep an eye on their B-stock. Thanks!

As for the flashed chromebooks that sounds like a pretty cool weekend project but I need something with a little more power.

TimeNaan OP ,

Yes, I'm a huge fan of second hand as well, but this has to be a brand new laptop for external reasons.

I'm in fact writing this from a 12 year old Thinkpad that I restored.

TimeNaan OP ,

I am in Europe but these laptops are rare in the low price end unfortunately.

If you’re in need of a new smartphone and have a budget of approximately $200, there are numerous excellent options available. Surprisingly, some of the best Android phones under $200 come...

I know, but it's still worth it to not use spyware.

Liberal != leftist. Also, the right wing could not care less about optics, because they are the ones who dictate what is acceptable. Why would we play by their rules, especially since they always change them?

TimeNaan ,

Well then you shouldn't use them as synonims because they are fundamentally different ideologies.

Again, why would we care about their game and scoring goals in it or not when we know they can move the goalposts at any time? The whole optics game is rigged in their favour, so don't play. Leftist ideas are sane, they are the ones misrepresenting them as insane, no matter how logical they are. They have massive funding and a giant media machine to push it. Fuck them.

Do what is right. Simple.

TimeNaan ,

How are we not acting smart by saying "black lives matter" and "trans women are women"? These are great, simple and to the point slogans.

The only way they can be seen as controversial is of you don't agree with these statements because you believe that black lives dont matter and that trans women aren't "real women". So that would make you a right-winger.

TimeNaan ,

Yes, says a lot about where you source your information and that you don't fact check enough.

TimeNaan ,

Usually, religion is just a front for different political interests

TimeNaan ,

And if it would be federated, there would be no cycle.

The other has been attacking them for decades...
