I have successfully backed up 143GB of TempleOS videos / Terry Videos. There are about 700 Videos in total.

I'm fixing to use a bot to scan through them for key words (images perhaps).

Other business laptops are also welcome in /tpg/ (e.g. Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook).
----
If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W/P SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™

Recommended models:
T420 - 14", normal size
X220 - 12.5", ultraportable
----
Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap.
>Excellent keyboards - tactile feel and quiet.
>Great durability: chassis uses a magnesium rollcage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels.
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing in the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

Alright, I accepted my admission into university for computer engineering. I am going out in the fall, but I want to get some things straight first. I am not going to lie, I based the option that will affect the rest of my life off of this /sci/ meme, although I took all the AP comp sci I could and an individual study in HS, and have browsed /g/ for probably 4 years now, so it isn't like I am a normie just majoring for the money. I just to be honest and say that I really don't know what computer engineering is like other than that it deals with hardware more the CS. Can anyone give me some good info on what is in store for me? Also, will I still be learning a good amount of CS? I enjoy learning about hardware but I want to still have some patrician-tier CS knowledge, so if CE doesn't teach too much advanced programming/software stuff I would like to know how to go about learning the more advanced stuff either on my own or in university. Thanks in advance.

Anyone else still holding on to that /ONETHING/ that just won't die or you refuse to let die?

A friend of mine had an old iPod Classic that got bricked a few years back. I spent around 5 minutes and managed to restore it to full working order. I've always known that these things were built to last. I'm thinking of buying one myself from the used market.

Why are the *BSD less popular than Linux? Both are FOSS *nix systems who can run almost the same applications plus the underlying system is similar enough, so you can easily get a hang of it.

Also a /bsd/ general, I guess. Tell me why you use *BSD instead of Linux.
