Who here uses his Thinkpad laptop as his main machine ?
Are you able to do all you need (software development, etc.) ?
Where in the house are you working on your Thinkpad mainly ?

Here, T420.
With 16gb ram, 3 drives and eGPU yeah, upgrading to a quad core soon for housefire temps.
Docked most of the time.
Ayo b0ss. T460.
Can't run Photoshop as well as I'd like but that's my fault for being a cheap fuck with high expectations. I mostly use GIMP anyways.
Usually outside of the house, either on my deck or somewhere else entirely. I guess if I am in the house it'd be my bedroom when I'm doing research for this scientific paper I've been working on since I turned 13. It's top secret though.
4chan and reddit is using ubuntu as their server OS whats your excuse for not using ubuntu?

It's august already and still no Zen leaks. Is it safe to assume that AMD is dead?
Its just going to be "like a Haswell i7" but then have serious performance issues in certain tasks, have shitty chink tier motherboards, and set your house on fire all at the same time.
Only purpose of it is to trick Poo in Loos into thinking they got better price/performance when Intel's offerings destroy AMD in price, performance, and efficiency.

AMD is doing better than it's been for a long time.
Zen was pushed back to 2017 though sadly.

Like there's something to be leaked.

Any reason why I shouldn't buy a Sinn 6000?
It has all the features I want.
Date, multiple time zones, chronograph, under 40mm.
Price is around $3700. Is that fair for the number of features and quality?
I plan to get my first rep. Does this look okay to you guys?

if you can afford it, i say go for it. that piece looks really nice
Are they completely retarded? You don't REMOVE access to back navigation via backspace key to due blithering idiots who are incapable of using a keyboard properly without hitting backspace while inputting data. I've been using backspace navigation for over 15 years without an issue. No, extensions don't solve the problem they bog the browser down. Running software just to be able to use a key as always is not a valid solution. The solution is to make it a flag in chrome:flags or make it an option in settings. How can you pea brained chrome developers be so fucking stupid? Hang yourself from a palm tree you god damned morons. I'll be joining the masses in applauding you as you crash and burn, faggots. No intelligent person accepts your form of "logic".
i completely agree, they didn't even due it for a good reason

If you want to try BSD, PC-BSD is best for beginners. Not sure about GhostBSD, never tried it.

>pkg
- no flexibility with what options things are built with
- must wait on the project to rebuild/update things
>ports
- it can take a long time to compile things, especially web browsers
- multiple unrelated tools involved (portsnap/svn, portmaster/portupgrade)
Both the ports system and pkg will do a lot of things as root where it's not
needed at all. I brought this up to a member of the ports security team and
he just shrugged it off. Simply because portsnap checks the snapshots it
fetches against a public key, he figured there was nothing to worry about.
I have to question their credibility sometimes. It's true that verifying
the files it fetches would indeed be a good countermeasure... if that was
done before the more dangerous operations. But it's not. The data integrity
check is done very late in the process, giving plenty of opportunity for
exploits against the other tools, all running as root and taking untrusted
input from the internet. Both portsnap and freebsd-update have a serious
design flaw here that could be easily fixed. Perhaps they have the utmost
confidence in the tools being bug-free. I try to be a bit more realistic.
But there's a lot more risk involved than just letting root go out to the
internet to download files. Perhaps a short summary of how building ports
works is needed for clarification here. The steps involved can be condensed
into the following:
- Fetching and updating the ports tree (a collection of makefiles and patches)
- Fetching the software's source code
- Verifying the checksum of the file(s)
- Extracting the source tarball
- Configuring, patching and building the application
- Creating a package from the built files
- Installing the package to your system (if desired)
So how many of these actually need to be done as root? Only the last one.
And how many of these are done as root by default in FreeBSD? All of them.
