But once you actually get it right, it looks pretty good, and you get quicker/more proficient the more you use it.
It also gives you extra street cred when submitting shit to computer science or mathematics people.

every time I fell for a /g/ meme it ended with it helping me in some way.
I needed a laptop and everybody was saying get a thinkpad so I got a refurbished X200 for $120 and installed debian on it. still using it today.
if IBM made PCs again the world would be a better place. I hope this one never dies.
>>60076620
Too true.
>>60076655
I have a beaten up X200T myself, but it still works so well internally. Rocking Debian on it as well.

there's hardly any arch-specific configs, and you don't even need to touch most of them
>>60074688
