>tfw there literally hasn't been a decent laptop made

look in the business class laptops.

Decent for me is "can use Linux" (I'm stingy with CPU/RAM/storage) and 6+ hours of battery life. There's so much of that being made these days for dirt cheap.

I know that feel.

16:9 is cancer on a laptop, and 99% of laptops today are 16:9.

You literally can't buy a 16:10 laptop with a good keyboard (like old IBM-made thinkpads), a trackpad with physical buttons, IPS matte screen, and normal BIOS compatibility, no forced EFI or funky shit like Macbooks or Chromebook Pixel.

They're not good either.

Translator's note: this means he's poor

You just described an x200 with an affs panel

Having $40 on hand is pretty secure by global standards.

Current unemployment rate in USA is 4.7% (14M) and that's just what they count which is basically not even a drop in the bucket.

Well sheeeit, I got $40 and a job. I'm rich bitch.

>>54894795
unemployment rate in the US is altered by a lot of things
"not looking for work" disqualifies you, that applies to people who can't find work after a while, despite them still actively searching

>>54894828
14 Million confirmed poor people and that's just what they can confirm.

I willing to bet the real number is more like 25%.

>>54894861
That's why the numbers dont add up, If they were to really tell people the real numbers there would probably be riots and attacks on the rich by tomorrow morning.

What thinkpads are good?

i have heard the t420 is good.

>>54894465
just get a *10 series ThinkPad. 16:10, decent enough old skool thinkpad kbd, trackpad with buttons, IPS matte screen on the X201 and normal old skool BIOS

>>54894333
use a 2013 or older rMBP anon, or the thinkpad x1 carbon if youre anti apple autistic, if you can find a decent business class laptop get that, but most manufacturers are letting those slide off the quality end since the money isnt there anymroe

>>54894333
rMBP is fucking glorious, dipshit.

>>54894333
The T420 disproves this statement.
