how the fuck do you have time for that

I don't think you actually like technology or you'd be sucked into its amazing fucking beauty all the time. For fucks sake my dude. Grow your fuck up!!! Gaming is for the children and do I look like I child to you? Of course I am, on the inside, but I express this in exploration of the technology, not of gaming. Gaming is waste of everyone's time, except VR game, I spend hours in VR game its great. Anyways point is fuck you you fucking custy fucker

Nigger what the fuck.
If the x200 has anything going for it it's the top notch cooling. I've compiled Gentoo on it for around 17 hours straight and not a single fucking time did it go over 75°C and never fucking once did it not run at its 3.2GHz dual core turbo.
I've run Prime95 on it for an hour and never did it go over 80°C.

Clean your fans and reapply the paste.

>>60480953
I run it on pretty low settings. Medium textures I think. No performance tweaks. I don't check FPS but its good enough for me when I'm away from my desktop.

It's called basic time management my man.

>1PM: Play some games/play with projects
>3PM: Start work
>12PM: Leave work
>12:20: Do some reading, housework to wind down
>2AM: Sleep

I emulate games on my T420, but a lot of indie stuff works fine, and even some games like GRID Autosport works like a charm. I mostly play F1 Challenge full with mods during breaks.

>>60487329
>10am-11am to shower and eat

Nigga I wake up at 6am for work and I shower and eat and leave my house by 6:40 and I get to BART at 6:50 to get to SF which takes an hour and so I arrive at the office by 7:55 and I start at 8:00

>>60478916
Games like this are fun at first, but them they get very overwhelming because I want to micro manage everything, and eventually just give up. Same thing happened with Factorio.

If you bought a Thinkpad to play any sort of high end game you're most likely uneducated. An i5 t420 has about the same CPU power as a Q6600. Intel is shit at making integrated video cards and this is a known fact. Thinkpads are for work and specifically are desktop replacements. They're reliable, durable, and easy to work on; they're not for games. Anyone who says thinkpads are shit completely miss the point of them.

>>60487392

>>60487392
Most people don't have a 1 hour 10 min commute. The median is something like 20-30 minutes.
Plus, when I was working 6AM-4PM, I woke up at 5, shower/eat/dress in 35ish min, and was at work by 6. Working an evening shift gives me the luxury of taking my time when I wake up, or sleeping in if I choose

>>60487534
Just bic your head every morning, ez.
For real, I generally can go 2 weeks between haircuts before I'm out of regs.

Must be nice working in a world class city.

>>60487854
I lol at those who jerk off over working/living in SF.

Sure, I'd love to rent a 200 sq ft apartment for $2000/mo and pay $10/day to ride the smelly cramped train for 1 hour each way, not to mention the standard California buttfuckery with taxes and regulations and whatnot.
But hey, muh silicon valley and world class city and ocean!

Just live in Denver/Milwaukee/Pittsburgh/St. Louis if you want the city experience, except you'll actually have money since you won't be spending 60% of your income on rent and transportation.

>>60477934
you fucked up. X230 is objectively better.

>>60487854
It sucks. I do refrigeration so it's a pain in the ass to not be in the way of business. And everything is fucking cramped and parking sucks. The city makes shit near impossible to not get a parking ticket. The people are nice but are assholes when driving.

>>60487995
I pay 15:50 daily for BART. $12 for the ride and $3 for parking. But they haven't ticketed me for parking yet because I never pay. I just charge the extra $3 so I can say I payed for it and pretend to be confused that I didn't realize there was a parking booth.

>>60477934
>Using anything but this running Libreboot and expecting to not to have a backdoor on your mobo

>>60488212
>I pay 15:50 daily for BART.
Jesus, that's a $250 car payment and gas for the month, which would get you a quite decent used car.
It's not the same though, since I park for free at my work and in a city there is no free parking.

If you say it sucks in SF, why don't you move?

>>60488291
I live close to San Jose and I got a job offer after school. I wanted the experience and cash as I was jobless and as I just said, hungry for experience plus SF pays more than east bay. I'm on vacation right now but when I go back to the US I have a friend in a union that talked to his boss to hire me so I will get payed more and have benefits. I will have work all over the bay but every Tuesday and Thursday I will have to drive to SF for school for several years.

>>60488008
No.

>>60478180
Obvious bait, but still more or less what this board is all about. There's a new /b/ but no one cleans this shithole.

The Dell™ XPS™ 15 doesn't have this problem.

>>60477934
I play CSGO and rocket league on my t420

Don't be a bitch

I want to keep playing Darkest Dungeon on mine but keeping it running at 97C seems like a really bad idea. I get about 786 in glmark2, someone who was probably a shitter told me he got twice that with the same cpu/gpu. I'm willing to bet he actually had a 2500K. If not though. I assume there hasn't been a better driver out for old intel cpus in several years?

>>60478129
I put the textures on low (they're fucking blocks, who cares what they look like) and the render distance at 4. The low render distance can be a pain if you're scouting new biomes, but you don't even notice in mines.

but no, you fell for le best keyboard meme when in fact the new keyboard is almost that good, i do 95wpm

I've got an X230 and play games on it all the time. Indie games all the way.

La Mulana
Iji
Cave Story
Spelunky
Touhou 1-13
MAME (Dodonpachi, Mushihimesama)
VNs (Katawa Shoujo, Sengoku Rance)
RPGmaker games (Yume Nikki, Ib, Witch's House)

Most importantly; these games don't need a mouse so you can play them anywhere.
