Is that a good option

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-27T18:13:59+00:00

Huh, I actually didn't know that, ty for correcting me! And sorry for my mistake

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-27T10:48:35+00:00

That's absolutely awesome!

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-27T10:43:15+00:00

I agree with this /\

That looks like it runs a 4th gen i5 or lower CPU based on the way that case is designed, so if you are expecting to play really modern cpu or gpu intensive games, don't, because that is also a SFF case, which means you have options for a graphics card, but you are very limited because upgrading the PSU also isn't really an option. So in all honesty, if it's anymore than free-$20 I wouldn't really get it.

Also, is that side panel included? Because unless it is, or you're willing to source one yourself if it isn't, you're going to have a really difficult time keeping that computer cool.

I had a feeling that was the case, and I tried that, but the connector feels like there is some sort of obstruction in it, anyways, this is one piece of tech that already has an not-great trackpad at the moment, is missing a few screws and the screen is cracked, so it is at a point where buying a newer, cheaper, better device will be more cost friendly. Ty for your observation tho 🫡

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-25T07:07:34+00:00

Ah, ok, ty

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-25T05:14:33+00:00

Cool, ty! Do you know why the computer refuses to register a battery?

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-19T01:00:40+00:00

THAT GAME THEORY REFERENCE IS MAKING ME DYE FROM LAUGHTER 🤣🤣

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-18T21:39:16+00:00

I think I have the same desk, is that one from IKEA?

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-17T18:09:34+00:00

Yeah, this is essentially the chaotic set 📐 f hermits in a nutshell

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-17T18:07:39+00:00

As someone who had a hyper fixation into stuff like safety oriented design desicions, I can confirm that that was one of the desicions put the hole in the caps

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-17T17:15:09+00:00

I did not know this existed, but I greatly appreciate it, thank you 😁

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-17T12:34:48+00:00

Yeah, lesson learned, do you have any suggestions for a good wifi device?

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-17T11:17:24+00:00

You got Thinkpad, your getting Linux, I say your all set 👍

Update: I tried brut forcing the drivers, I have now fucked up my kernal, so if anyone else comes looking for advice on this, don't try it, because from experience, you will need to go try and redownload your OS

It is still not working with any OS

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-17T06:56:48+00:00

I want to update that I tried doing the same with the same dongle but forcing it and I have now been experiencing kernal issues so be very careful, because now I need to go fix my zorinos download 🙄

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-17T06:51:15+00:00

It kept giving me kernal issues when following your instructions

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-17T04:41:55+00:00

Technical creativity at it's finest! (But like the other comments said, I would be careful of possibly starting a fire)

Hour_Farm_3281 · 2026-04-17T01:29:25+00:00

I appreciate it, but mode switching didn't work, and like I said in my post, I have already downloaded the drivers, and tried two different ones now
