kind of got fed up with 1366x768 and the x230 is fine but just all broken, 2 hours of battery and could be a bit faster. I'm looking at T495

@piggo battery life is all over the place (i had like 5h max when it was new), and the battery itself is screwed into place, which is a downgrade over t480, hell even t490 is better than t495 because it's on intel, zen+ APUs used in t495 are just absolute horse shit

@piggo it's a mix of unsupported hardware (yes, ryzen 3000 APUs are already considered unsupported by amd and so like, amdvlk 2024.q1+ will not work if you want to do games, and radv is just shit ime), and for example, linux 6.5 and iirc 6.2? did crash because of a fuckup regarding handling of the Better Than Intel Offerings™ Vega 8, Linux 6.6 does work okay, idk about 6.7 because i already went to LTS after 6.5 fuckup

@piggo and from what i recall, zen+ APUs have just plain worse perf than intel in t480 and t490

@jeder @piggo We have a T480 and a Ryzen 2500U laptop

Coffee Lake seems to behave better than Zen in laptops

Less hot and faster, but probably a slightly weaker GPU

@jeder @natty hmm... It won't be happy with my rust builds

I mean it's cheap enough to just resell it at a similar price and not think about it if it's too bad

@piggo @natty oh and important note about official lenovo thinkpad usb-c "docks" if you even want to get one:
forget about them, they are absolutely not worth your time, display outputs on 40AS don't even work under linux, just get a random baseus hub with hdmi output, needless to say, thunderbolt hubs don't work on t495 obviously
