Anyone here ever have a Thinkpad L series? I'm looking at the L14 as a daily driver for Linux, and I'm curious if it is as solid as the T series, like the T14. I don't want something that's going to break and be unfixable.
I have decided I'm aiming for a #Lenovo #T14 or #T14S for my birthday. I spent $400 on my current machine, a used #T480s, but the screen sucks (and camera and speakers, but... enh), and I haven't bought a *new* laptop for ten years.
But I'm going to buy *used*, dammit! There are a zillion pre-owned laptops in the world, and #Linux runs on all of them.
So this year, I'm giving myself the gift of being really fuckin' smug about my computer.
Mhm, gar nicht so einfach ein #Thinkpad #T14 mit Ryzen 7 und Original deutscher Tastatur in #refurbished zu bekommen.
Was haltet ihr von der e Reihe?
For information, Lenovo seems to be rolling out a firmware update for "embedded controller" for Lenovo T14 AMD Gen5. This firmware is managed by fwupdmgr, and is seen as version 0.1.8
. It leads to the Qualcomm Technologies, Inc QCNFA765 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) beeing not seen anymore at all even with recent kernels.
Reverting to 0.1.6
with the bootable image from https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-t-series-laptops/thinkpad-t14-gen-5-type-21mc-21md/21mc/21mccto1ww/pf556999/downloads/driver-list/component?name=BIOS%2FUEFI&id=5AC6A815-321D-440E-8833-B07A93E0428C (which doesn't tell you, because it would be too simple) solves the problem.

Too expensive to deploy = useless tank

The new #T14 is much more advanced and functional than Russia's arsenal of existing #tanks, but it is "too expensive" to be fielded in #Ukraine, #SergeyChemezov, director general of the defense conglomerate #Rostec, told the RIA state news agency. #Russia

لينوفو تطلق جهاز ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 بسعر يبدأ من 950 دولار #MWC2024
I love #Slimbook, #Tuxedo and also #Starlabs! #System76 sell great machines, but importing one would mean a 21% VAT price surcharge.
Currently still very happy with my #Thinkpad #T14 (Gen 1, AMD). At the time, ordering without an OS wasn't possible, so I settled for M$ Wind*ws, which I immediately replaced with #Fedora. From the ordering & payment procedure I got the impression that #Lenovo didn't really want to sell anything to me at all. Delivery took 8 weeks.
Da ist mir doch tatsächlich heute Morgen das Netzteil innerhalb meines Lenovo T14 gestorben. Jedenfalls erscheint es so: Lädt nicht mehr. Das weiße LED neben der USB-C-Buchse ist aus.
Das externe Netzteil und Kabel sind definitiv in Ordnung. Die laden gerade mein MacBook Pro, das ich ersatzweise verwende…
Irgendjemand mit ähnlich Erfahrungen?
Habe hier ein "#ThinkPad Universal Thunderbolt 4 Dock" das ich mit meinem ThinkPad #T14 Gen 3 nutze. Das Dock benötigt ein #Firmwareupdate

Auf meinem ThinkPad läuft kein Windows!
Hat wer einen Tipp wie ich das machen könnte? 🤔
Ne Firma wollte 90 Euronen 🙀
Die Präsentation des neuen #T14 Kampfpanzers zur Siegesparade 2015 in #Russland traf den Westen wie ein rüstungstechnischer Donnerschlag. Aber hält der T-14 #MBT das ein, was er als Panzer neuester Generation zu versprechen scheint? Oder ist er gar zu teuer & fehlerhaft, eher ein potemkinsches Dorf der russ. Rüstungsindustrie?
