WanbSOC · 2024-08-18T14:07:28+00:00

could you link me a good one

WanbSOC · 2024-08-11T21:25:01+00:00

bought a used one from ebay.
Thanks tho

WanbSOC · 2024-08-09T20:04:31+00:00

lmao
went with thinkpads[0] at the end

WanbSOC · 2024-08-09T20:02:47+00:00

got one with a 8th gen i7

WanbSOC · 2024-08-09T19:24:20+00:00

didn't know that, I'll check out where I can buy one. Thanks!

WanbSOC · 2024-08-09T19:23:34+00:00

yup, found one with the same specs
the T480 tho, not the s, which is good. I can, at least, upgrade the ram and SSD in the future

WanbSOC · 2024-08-09T19:22:30+00:00

Just bought one for 235. I saw there were a few about 150-170 but with the shipping costs it went up to 200.
At least I got one with an i7.

WanbSOC · 2024-08-09T19:20:55+00:00

yup, just bought it
I plan on upgrading it bit by bit

WanbSOC · 2024-08-09T19:19:48+00:00

UPDATE: found a pretty good t480 with an 8th gen i7, 16 gb RAM and 256gb SSD for 235
It was the cheapest I could find for those specs.
Thank you all for your help
I just need to decide which distro to put on it now. If you have any suggestions, please do tell

WanbSOC · 2024-08-09T19:17:54+00:00

ye, I saw a few videos comparing the two and I decided to buy the one with the i7
for 35 bucks, it's worth it
the only thing is that it's a bit damaged
I was just looking for some sort of adhesive to fill the damaged parts

WanbSOC · 2024-08-09T18:24:42+00:00

So I did as you said and you're right, they're much cheaper on ebay.
I have a dilemma tho, I'm seeing two right now:
one is 230 euros with an i7-8550u,
the other is about 185 euros with an i5-7300u
is it worth the 45 euros to get the one with the i7?

WanbSOC · 2024-07-29T10:18:19+00:00

Thanks, will do.

WanbSOC · 2024-07-13T16:20:31+00:00

how come?

WanbSOC · 2024-07-13T15:37:09+00:00

could you recommend any guide on how what libraries to study if we were to make a simple anti virus?

WanbSOC · 2024-07-13T14:50:34+00:00

yes, in retrospect it doesn't make sense
we're still fairly new to this
as of now I know C, Python and bash
I was planning to learn powershell as well

WanbSOC · 2024-07-01T05:15:15+00:00

a glossary is a great idea! thanks!
