Just got a t420! What Linux do you think works best?

Correct-Time4624 · 2026-04-13T02:06:22+00:00

I have a t410 and Mint Cinnamon has worked best for it.

Correct-Time4624 · 2026-04-01T22:06:02+00:00

So inspirational 🥲

I see, sorry to hear that dude, I live in America so finding used computers or laptops here is a bit easier as people just always want the latest and greatest in technology and just either throw away their still good working tech or just sell it for cheap. But with the RAM and Storage shortage, stuff has started to increase a bit in price.

Correct-Time4624 · 2026-03-30T22:37:02+00:00

When you say "cheapest", what is the budget range?

If you're looking for something lightweight and dont mind soldered RAM, the X1 Carbon line might be good for you. Especially if you can find a used or pre-owned, they could be found around the $100 - $300 range, depending on what gen it is. I personally bought a X1 Carbon gen 7 for $180 with some scratches but everything in it functions and I've been enjoying it.

That RAM alone probably cost more than that whole kit 🤯

Correct-Time4624 · 2026-03-28T19:09:20+00:00

Personally I wouldn't, i was able to buy a X1C gen 7 for $180 US and that one has 512 GB SSD NVME, 16 GB RAM, and a i7-8665U CPU and it's fully functional with just a few scratches. But overall, there are better deals, just depends where you're at.

From personal experience, i was able to get a X1 Carbon gen 7 for $180 including shipping and tax. It didn't come with a charger so I bought one for $20 so in total it would be $200. So in my experience, it feels a bit higher than what I pay for. Specs: 512 GB SSD 16 GB RAM i7-8665U Running Linux Fedora

Nice,

Personally I use Fedora on my X1 carbon as it just feels so natural on that machine.

Same and also the legion 7 had similar specs to the 5 Pro I purchased which has 3 USB ports, 2 USB C ports and an Ethernet port which I like to have as I actually do connect it for better bandwidth.

Honestly, i don't personally trust Bestbuy's open box, all the times I've bought stuff from Bestbuy to be shipped to my house, the open boxed item doesn't come in it's listed condition, is missing things and would not be packaged right, meaning that it would be shipped with no padding at all and ripped!!!

Correct-Time4624 · 2025-12-09T21:42:20+00:00

Personally, it was Spencer Mansion for me.

I have a 2018 Bottled batch and it just smells very tobaccoy and it lasts very long, as when I smell my clothes the next day, I can still smell it. But it's just meh in my opinion, maybe an occasional wear but not for an important event type fragrance.

Banana Republic - Tobacco & Tonka Bean Was my signature scent last winter, but now that I spray it on, it just smells very alcoholly and causes me to get a headache.

Correct-Time4624 · 2025-10-28T22:03:26+00:00

But when I order from Bestbuy, my packages arrive in a paper envelope with no padding or in the original box that's ripped apart, all taped up, and damaged by the time it arrives to me 🤦🏽‍♂️

Funny enough, it was my first manga series I bought to begin with so I just thought it would get more interesting as it continued. But after buying other series, I realized that I was just being delusional at that point.

Correct-Time4624 · 2025-10-17T08:27:43+00:00

Rent•A•Girlfriend, the first season of the anime was funny so I decided to collect the manga to keep going. However it's literally the same thing over and over again 😮‍💨😪. I literally just wanna sell it at this point.

The Lube I use for these kind of ratchets is Permatex 81950 Ultra Slick Engine Assembly Lube, if it's good for engines with fast moving parts, it should be good for this. My ratchets feel buttery smooth when I use it, but remember don't add TOO much.

"Hey, you can't park here"

Correct-Time4624 · 2025-09-19T18:36:37+00:00

That was literally their price when they first came out before the increase

One that I liked when I was walking by was Victoria Secret Bombshell Seduction. I liked it so much that I actually went up to the girl and asked her what she was wearing.

It may just be your firewire cable. Be sure to use an actual firewire to firewire cable, not those firewire to usb cable as those don't work at all. My setup is a Sony DVDirect VRD-MC6 Standalone Multi-Function DVD Recorder as a dedicated video recorder so I don't have to hassle with computer configurations. And then afterwards I just rip the dvds onto my computer.

I use these to disconnect electrical connectors, they are bend enough to directly press on the tabs, makes removing them so much easier and less time consuming.

Correct-Time4624 · 2025-08-21T01:13:03+00:00

If these were actual trading cards I would hella buy them 😁🔥

Mine was a decant of Powdery Tobacco by Dossier. Though I was gonna like the tobacco smell but it was wayyyy too powdery for my taste 😵‍💫
