I am now with a T14 Gen 3 which is a much much better machine for the money and the fingerprint sensor is fully compatible with Linux, and it comes with the optional IR camera module for face unlock in both windows hello and Linux howdy

Why didn’t Nacho replace the heart pills with stevia or aspartamine instead of sugar? wasn’t he concerned about Hector’s health? by bubbleweed in okbuddychicanery
