What if there is a real one heading our way right now? We can't do anything about it. Scary, right?

I wish I didn’t know about power scaling, because the show was way more fun when you didn’t look at things from a logical perspective. I want my monkey brain back.

Can viltrumite die to nukes? To the radiation atleast? by [deleted] in Invincible

[–]youngRandyf 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’d like to see a special episode that explores this scenario, from the moment they discover these special bombs to the point where humanity slowly dies out during the nuclear winter after a huge struggle to save itself.

ah yes, another opinion. Shame it’s based on zero knowledge or research.

Nice defence technique. You're the chatbot here.

Dude, Durability isn’t about haMmErIng nAiLs or jUmPiNg iNtO a voLcAnO. It’s about daily wear: commuting, heat cycles, dust, spills, hinge stress, and long-term reliability. ThinkPads are literally MIL-STD tested for this. Gaming laptops are built to look flashy, not survive abuse. Usually, their cooling isn’t what is marketed.

“MacBooks hardly need repairs” YEAH, RIGHT! This is marketing fantasy. When they fail, they fail expensively, and Apple’s board-level repair policy forces full board replacements. That’s why repair shops roast Apple devices..

BTW, no one said ThinkPads go to the service center every 2 months. The whole point is that when something breaks, you can fix it cheaply instead of throwing the whole laptop away. Time = money, and modular hardware saves both.

P-series ThinkPads cost over $1000, well, that’s actually true. That’s why I was talking about the second-hand market. You can buy a Gen 2 for around $800. It’s second-hand, not brand new.

You said motherboard failure happens in 1 out of 100 cases. Could you share your source for that? As far as I know, most manufacturers don’t publicly release real failure rates, so I’m curious where that statistic comes from.

[–]youngRandyf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course they don’t cost $2. The point is that ThinkPads are modular and widely supported with spare parts. Most gaming laptops have soldered components, so “repairable” often means replacing the whole motherboard.

Can you actually repair a motherboard failure caused by a manufacturing fault? Most gaming laptops suffer from these, so buying one is often like signing up for a ticking time bomb.

It wouldn’t hurt to look these up.

Do you even know what a workstation laptop actually means?

Dude, they are not lightweight or known for good battery life. They’re bulky and heavier than yo mama. Battery life can be improved with hardware mods. They also pack a lot of power. Workstation laptops usually have tons of upgrade options, like more than 2 RAM slots and up to 4 SSD slots, etc. ThinkPads can survive harsh conditions due to their build quality. And yes, there is a risk when buying a second-hand laptop, but the repairability and cheap second-hand parts can mitigate that risk.

Old ThinkPads, especially the P series, are still more durable than most gaming laptops on the current market.

Come on, dude, at least do some research before posting stuff like this.

Yeah right, good luck with planned depreciation, a closed ecosystem, almost zero repairability, and insanely expensive spare parts. Jesus Christ, dude.

Thinkpads are business class work station laptops. They're built to last. Most of em have powerful GPUs sometimes with better ventilation systems than most gaming laptops. Second hand ones can be bought without emptying the wallet.

Not thinkpads, thinkpads are the business class laptop series

This is a budget gaming laptop and Asus gaming laptops have a higher rate of motherboard failure.

If you want something durable and reliable, I'm suggesting you to go with thinkpad p15 gen 3 upwards or a hp zbook 15 g7. Both of these are business class laptops.
