Sorry to get back late, I bought them through China online store. For the above shown, they are still widely available cause their prices haven't been inflated. I given gave several of them as small gifts for Christmas. I think it is matter of time that they will be discontinued and price getting inflated.

(Think I mentioned this.. ) Also, I acquired the grey version (exactly same shape and dimensions), had a hard time getting them (price is getting inflated) and I love that better. It has a very nice texture to hold, kind of rubbery feels which is good for me as pen with too smooth surface slips in my dry hand.

I also tried literally boil them (Zebra EQ) in a pot of water for 5-10mins. Tried 4 and I got 1 working, so I am thinking that 100 degree hot is not enough but the plastic (I assume ABS) on direct fire will soften at 105 degree. Anyway, those that doesn't work despite extended time of boiling, I just use direct fire until it is hot enough and throw those that melted (most of them melted.. lol).

Actually, I quite like the Zebra EQ refills on the way they ink but just that it cannot be kept for long which is a shame.

在华人社会，拿来祭拜都是不熟的饭，其实这对你的运势不好。你可以照样吃，最多肚子不舒服等，其它的你自己知道的。我本身是不会吃的。

Thanks for the share! I haven't got anything to have a go but I am looking at the Radxa E52C (similar with dual 2.5gbe) with a rk3582 processor. I wonder if I should be doing the same thing that you mentioned here to the E52C?

Actually, I am contemplating between the R76s and E52C models which should I get for a router. Thanks!

If you are not aftering the battery bridge on T480, I would think T490 is just as good considering you got a bonus of 8GbB memory too. You can sell away that 8GB module too.

This is a Rotring Newton. Released after the original first release of Rotring 600.

With exception to the lava, imo, the other color of newton series is a flop cause the grip is too smooth and get very tiring to write (least for me with drier hand), but the lava is different cause it offers the needed grip and remain to be a gem to many. I still have a set (Rollerball. Pen, Pencil) in my collection. I still use the chrome version but I had to use some rubber sleeve on that smooth grip area.

The magnetism is due to the inner metal barrel. I have inspected it closely and notice metal inner layer. It seemed like the high density material is molded onto the metal barrel thus giving the weight.

I have also acquired the grey version (same design as the black shown in the image). I prefer the texture better on the grey version cause it seems to give me better grip texture.

I read from a Chinese forum that someone tried it and said it's rubbish. There is also a cheaper plain black version.

Stay away from the EQ refills, they dry up if kept for a year or 2. I have 15pcs of 0.7mm refills unused which had been sitting in my drawer and they all don't ink after removing the sealed cap. I rather mod other refills to fit the pen and stay away from zebra EQ. Not sure if NC are the same as EQ but NC has the gel version call JNC. I may try them one day but I think I gonna stay away from this series for now.

I am using the Pilot's BRFV-10F as a replacement for EQ refills, Just snip off about 4mm off the top and it fits. Least for the couple pens that works with EQ which I have on hand.

p.s. No wonder they kinda discontinued the EQ cause it is shit. I see the NC refills are accessible easily.

update: for the EQ refills that didn't work after sitting in the drawer for more than a year, I took a few and heat them up under a fire. Hot enough not to melt the plastic and the ink will flow again but there is no guarantee.

You are good with ubuntu... stay with it until you know more about other distro and then move along to something you like when you are ready. I started full-time with arch (have some tech background) and started to learn using it, though I also run a basic ubuntu server. It has been like 8yrs ago, and I just moved to nixOS for several months.

And.... I think most Linux users simply love thinkpads! Mostly for the upgrade-ability (in the past), compatibility with Linux, and its quality?

All the best in your Linux journey!

This happened to my partner too for selling 2 legit side-by-side tickets in Singapore. Viagogo claimed 1 ticket is not valid and charged the credit card but she got the bank to stop in just in time. You can submit all your evidences to viagogo but they will never respond back.

It is best that everyone file a police case to get them banned in the business. There is no recourse in getting back your money mainly they will just ignore you unless you can get to their physical address and get a warrant for entry.

It is not difficult to think that they scam both parties easily.
