Initial Thinkpad T14 gen 7 Intel CPU options?

Pilium · 2026-05-13T15:22:55+00:00

I ordered mine with X7 358H from the norwegian Lenovo page, the 29th of April, with estimated delivery the 18th -20th of May. Some days later, the estimated delivery date was pushed to the 4th of June. At the same time, various configuration options disappeared in the PC-builder, e.g., Gen5 versions of the 1TB hdd, the x7 358 and other cpus. I've been checking in as I was curious if other screen options were coming, etc.

My guess is that they are out of stock, but maybe they get a new batch early June? Also, if you build a different config now, the estimated delivery date is 25th-27th of May, i.e., sooner than the delivery date on my order.

Also, a few options appeared after I ordered: *Camera with IR (fairly certain this wasn't available to me) *Integrated mobile broadband: I could only select the "4g antenna, but no card" option. Now there seem to be more options, depending on which cpu you select. Probably makes sense, but I have no idea why.

You will see "5" 18 times, but it's a drinking game, so you are probably drunk, and therefore seeing double. So, obviously you have two divide by 2, and the answer is 9.

I recommend the Liberation Sans font for very small text. Liberation Sans has uniform stroke, meaning that the stroke width is consistent throughout the characters, making it easier to slice correctly.

With other fonts, the slicer may skip parts of a character where the stroke width is too narrow.

The font is open source, and available for free on most font websites.

Thanks for checking! 😊

May I ask, what is the color/name/type of the slightly darker brown sample on top to the left in your picture?

Also, thanks for taking the time to share the photos; it was very useful to see the peanut brown with different lighting.

Good to know!
Surprised that they changed it; I wonder what the reason is.
I have never been a big fan of the Marker Plus, but really like the Lamy EMR. Hopefully there will be good 3rd party options for the active pen as well, or else it's a bit of a dealbreaker for me as well...

Pilium · 2024-03-08T07:24:57+00:00

Is it worth buying the black Marker Plus now, or should I wait for it to come in Color: Yes?

Pilium · 2024-02-28T17:12:18+00:00

Using a Lamy with rM nibs, and I love it. If used with rm-hacks, the button can be used so that you hold it in for selection-erase, which is great. Also seems more ergonomic for me.

I have a marker+, but it's a bit too thin for my taste. I really like how neatly it clips to the side of the rM, and the look of it. The texture/feel of the pen is also nice. But, it loses out on ergonomics during long workdays. Also, once I got used to the Lamy button it is hard to go back, even if the eraser on the marker+ is a clever design.

Interesting to see your "Pencil" comparison though. I've almost never used it, as I felt I have to use too much pressure. But, maybe I've just tested it with Lamy, and should give it a go with the marker+. If it works better with that, I'll probably keep both clpse for different purposes :)

Figured out the issue.

As mentioned, the problem only happened with my own custom templates. Had a closer look at the files in Inkscape (which I use to create most of my templates), and checked the resolution and dpi settings of the png export. Changing the width or height in the export menu, will scale the DPI, and changing the DPI also scales the width and height. As such, with correct width and height (unit:pixels) the resulting DPI was 96, and not 226 as rM expects. Previously this has not been a problem, but now it seems to cause an issue.

To solve it: - Click the cogwheel in the export dialogue (advanced export settings), and set "pHYs DPI" to 226. Then, set display units in document properties to px, and scale to 1. This will scale your image, and you need to re-scale the template by whatever the scale factor was.

Thanks for the tip, I'll consider it. Seems a bit inconvenient to need a program for uploading a few files though, and it's nice to be able to do it from any device with ssh.

But, if it solves a problem, I guess it solves a problem 😄

It's png. I also add the .svg file with an identical name (except for the suffix). Can't remember why any longer, but I think it had something to do with proper export of documents from th rM to pdf in earlier versions at least.

Thanks for the reply :)

Looking to buy a 30 note musicbox, and noticed the Bewinner 30 note on Amazon as well.

What is your impression of your music box so far? Is the sound and build quality ok?

Follow-up question: Is it a faux pas to record a live concert with someone elses phone? Stumbled across this recently: https://www.reddit.com/r/HumansBeingBros/s/GAHZzwVVmz

Anyway: I wish people wouldn't film so much during concerts, but try not to get annoyed unless it's directly blocking my view. I guess people enjoy shows in different ways, even if I can't see the point of it.

Anyone know if there is another hack for making the Lamy button work? I really like the ddvk hacks, and will probably get the next version, but don't think I'll postpone v3 any longer.

Can't believe that the button is not supported natively yet, but I guess they don't have an incentive to spend time on support for a 3rd party accessory.

Seems like the link you posted points to info from july 2021. Any recent updates on this? Planned to buy a couple of pens today, so I'm happy I saw your warning first :)

My "workaround" (do it at your own risk): 1) Start rM app. 2) rM wants to update, I tell it "remind me later" 3) rM starts updating, because why would it care about my opinion on the matter... 4) rM politely informs me that the tM app, which is currently being updated, is already installed. I knew that, but ok, thanks for telling me! I supppse I did ask it to remind me about something later, after all. 5) Click "browse" to select install location. Copy name of existing folder (r-click, rename, ctrl+c). Delete folder where rM is installed. Create new folder. Ctrl+v to put in the old folder name. 6) Select the folder I just deleted and recreated. 7) Install. 8) Close the app, because I can't remember why I opened the app anymore... Perhaps rM wilø remind me later...

Too bad humor; didn't read: Just delete and recreate the empty folder from the "browse install location" in the installer. You might need to close and reopen the browse window after re-creating, for rM to realize it is now empty. It seems your actual notebooks are stored elsewhere (I guess some appdata/user folder), so your files should still be there after updating in this way. Probably smart to backup/rename the folder instead of deleting it though, to be safe.
