    Not to repeat myself from when I saw this posted last, but:

    Seeing thinkpads running Windows feels just wrong.

      They do tend to start out that way, until they come off-lease and have Arch installed on them by a Blåhaj-clutching, thigh-high-wearing FOSS enjoyer

      Like 90% of professional laptops in America are this exact set up? I have one sitting on my table right now. You Linux people seem to think there are a lot more of you than there are.

        It’s true. There’s a lot of wickedness in this world.

      In my past 20 years in investment banks, i saw only one a guy with a Mac. He was in communication. Everybody got a Thinkpad X, T or X1 Carbon for the execs.

      The only person I know working in finance couldn’t even afford their own ThinkPad. In fact, they are a bit malnourished as they can’t even afford food some of the time. But they do live in this big, mostly empty house, which I could never afford in my entire lifetime, and towards mortgage for which most of their money goes. Something-something appreciating assets yada-yada

    By her own math, this would be slightly more than one week’s worth of stolen laptops. So…

    I wonder what kind of shenanigans you could get up to with a rack of 30+ thinkpads linked as a cluster computer…
