  • This, the headline, bothers me so much. It is intentionally wrong (“can’t” means it is not possible or capable, which is false and incredibly easily verified). “aren’t selling enough” is what they actually wanted to say, but then every single company ever created can say ‘we aren’t selling enough (because we want all the money in the universe)’ and that as a headline is boring as fuck. So they lie with “can’t”, and this shit pisses me the fuck off.

    This shit - whether it is a post title on lemmy, or the article title itself - is not journalism, it’s just lying to coax in readers and then explaining away the lie, like ‘oh no you don’t understand, we didn’t mean it like that’. Explain the shit truthfully and clearly, front and center, or get the fuck off the stage.





  • Only with certain models, sadly. Mine was not available with anything but W10 Pro, 3y ago. Zero support for Linux.

    Also linux support for cellular models is atrocious, so I had to go with (k)ubuntu, even though I didn’t want to. Even then, it was more difficult than it should have been (didn’t work out of the box). Everything else worked fine on all distros and flavors I checked, but none else got the modem working (eventually).

    But also, after that TP and then buying and returning two more (known cooling issues that Lenovo denies, and a custom build that they didn’t activate or provide a key for W10 Pro!), they will have to give me a free, top-tier machine to potentially get me as a customer again. Cs was nice but everything else is a dumpster fire.

    The TP is on its second battery too - the first was replaced after 6 weeks. I never left the house with it, and yet it went from 3h to 20m capacity in that amount of time. The replacement did the same thing…
