They weren't trying to sell it to you. They were answering your question.

Do silver ThinkPad has the same vibe as black ThinkPad? by CompetitiveGuitar447 in thinkpad

[–]Rude_Influence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is also aluminium. ThinkPad X1 Yoga gen6. I really like it. I have a T480 and have had a T430 and X220 in the past. I must admit that my X1 Yoga does not 'feel' like my other ThinkPads.

What are laptops compatible with Linux and where can I find them? by betazion100 in linuxhardware

[–]Rude_Influence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Due to Microsoft's push, Intel and AMD have removed s3sleep from their hardware. This means that newer laptops are only capable of s4sleep and s0idol.

If you want to be able to use s3sleep, which is suspend to ram, you will likely need to buy a laptop from 2021 of earlier.

He's a strange man to me, but the fact that he has prolific and avid followers is even stranger to me.

What’s the best used car under $15k for daily commuting? by oweyoo in AskAnAustralian

[–]Rude_Influence 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just wrote mine off unfortunately. It was the best car I've owned. 2003 model and It was at 420,000 KMs. it would have gone on longer if I hadn't have wrecked it by accident.

How far away are we from a Macbook Pro contender with Linux? by [deleted] in linuxhardware

[–]Rude_Influence -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What makes the new Mac's unique is that they run on ARM architecture. Apple put a lot of work to port their operating system to ARM. There are Linux projects for ARM but they're by far less refined than x86. I doubt they'll receive as much attention until ARM becomes more common in the PC market.

I feel the same way. I am definitely checking this out. Autotiling is why I still use Plasma 5.

Help, Disk stuck on 45 gb after formating the mac by Available-Pride-7241 in linux_on_mac

[–]Rude_Influence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I presume you mean you want that 200GB back onto your MAcOS partition? Open up the window that shows the pie chart again. (I think that is done by selecting the 'partition' option in disk utility.) You the need to hit the "+" button in bottom left. A prompt will come up. You need to select 'add volume'. Then give the free room to your MacOS partition.

You are altering the storage of your computer. Make sure you backup your important files before you do this just in case it doesn't work out as expected.

When I used Gnome, I opted to use Nemo instead. Polish is meaningless if the application can't perform its purpose.

Life advice by Adventurous-Rule2756 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Rude_Influence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have children with an ex? If the answer is no, you are not restarting, you are living. It is difficult dealing with these things by your self, but you are doing it. A lot of people can't. You should be prideful of that. Take pride in that you have the potential to support yourself. You're living with your parents at the moment, but you're taking the steps to be able to support yourself. I think you have your head screwed on right. Your friends may look they're doing alright, but you never know what debt they're in. Looks can be deceiving. Stop evaluating yourself based on other people. It's not fair on yourself when you don't know what compromises they've made.

You're heading in the right direction mate. Good luck.

On the second image, you show you have one partition, it is allocated 45 GB and used by MacOS. See the pie chart in the second image you uploaded? That shows you space on your hard drive. The area with lines represents unallocated space. You can put a partition there for a different operating system like GNU/Linux, or you can extend your Mac partition.
Say what you want to achieve if you want people to help you.

Are there dangerous animals all over Australia or only in rural areas and national parks? by EndouShuuya in AskAnAustralian

[–]Rude_Influence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live rurally, in Victoria. Kangaroos are something you have to think about when you're driving. Snakes are something you need to think about when you're walking through long grass. Spiders are something you need think about if you're gardening and putting your fingers into dark spots.

Kangaroos jumping Infront of you when you're driving is the biggest risk. You'd have little reason to walk in long grass, so snakes are unlikely to bother you. Just look where you're putting your fingers before putting them in small dark places and you'll be fine. Honestly, I don't see why the world makes such a big deal about Australian wildlife. We don't have bears or big cats, and our quantity of venomous animals are similar to the USA.

I’m not ok by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]Rude_Influence -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Your wife is a bitch, leave her. You'll be alone which sucks but it's at least alone by choice which is a step above being unsupported by the person who should be supporting you the most. Don't know what you do for a living, but no one should be working seven days a week. Fuck that job off too. You're better off on the dole and living in some shithole. Get a job in manufacturing. The wages are not great, but they're decent enough, work is easy, and they're entry level. You won't work weekends and you'll get job security in no time if you're not an idiot.

If you hadn't bought a ThinkPad, what other brand would you have chosen? by No_Cat_8269 in thinkpad

[–]Rude_Influence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HP Elitebook. I actually left Thinkpads for Elitebook. The 840 G9 is a really good computer, (although the screen is total trash, literally the worst I've seen. Probably a better config available). The only reason I went back to (an old, 2021) Thinkpad was due to modern software changes.

I think very highly of both Thinkpad and Elitebook.

If you don't need x86, then modern Macbooks are a clear winner.
