They’re pretty insecure anyway, my current P14s Gen1 has a working fingerprint reader on Silverblue but I haven’t really used it.
Nice. Software developer, gamer, occasionally 3d printing, coffee lover.

I haven’t used a T14, just the E14 and the P14S.
New ish. My current Thinkpad is a P14s Gen 1 with a Ryzen 4750U 16GB of RAM, and it came with a 512GB SSD. I paid just under $300 for it on eBay and well worth the cost. I wouldn’t get anything that is still a TXXX variant anymore though (e g. T490), they simplified the product line. So T490 was replaced by the E14 Gen 1, and the P14s Gen 1 is an AMD variant.
Highly recommend. One thing worth noting though is to double check the fingerprint reader if you desire that, the E14 Gen 1 has a reader not compatible with Linux in a functional way. The P14s Gen 1 however does.
I use Groupy by Stardock for this. It’s a neat little tool that lets you make pretty much any application into a tab by grouping them.
It isn’t open source nor free though, and I didn’t even realize there was a Groupy 2 until I searched it to get you a link. For something I use daily, it was worth it for $10.
Kids are stupid xD. My bike memory like that is our parents for one of those BMX bikes from a garage sale. The ones with the bars coming out the wheels for tricks.
My sister, brother, and I decided those were for carrying additional people, so obviously having one driving, one standing in the rear, and one standing on the front would be fun. But in our infinite wisdom we decided going down the concrete driveway was a bad idea, so we decided to go down the dirt hill (which had a steeper incline).
We had one tame wipeout and decided to go for round two. This time we made it to the bottom of the hill (where the trees and branches/debris are) and wiped out. It wasn’t pretty lol. No hospital but a few road rashes (or the dirt equivalent) and other various cuts and bruises led to us going inside to our mom for intervention.
She was not happy. The next day, the bike was gone.
For me personally I don’t have much control over my empathy. Sure I can look at someone and glean their emotional state based on conscious guessing, but my “affective empathy” as you put it, is more my brain subconsciously picking up on their emotional state and then sharing it.
For most emotions, including anger, it’s not targeted. Not until I actively participate in the emotion. It’s also not something that applies to everyone and every situation, with my own personal emotions easily overriding the empathetic emotions.
Of course, everyone experiences empathy their own way.
I’ve only had to contact them for trust and safety reports and they’ve been pretty responsive, despite usually not telling you the outcome (the outcome is pretty easy to find out anyway). I’m glad I haven’t had to contact them for other stuff though, since I’ve heard it’s a nightmare.
When working with transient data, streaming it (as opposed to saving it to the disk first) is preferred to reduce clean up requirements.
The complexities involved, even with solutions, are just too much for current humans. Genetically engineering ourselves could work, though I’m more in favor of just digitizing ourselves ha.
I’ve had to carrier unlock two devices from T-Mobile. You’ve already returned it, but if anyone else faces a similar situation: for whatever godforsaken reason, DMing them on Twitter is the way that has always worked for me. There is back and forth, but usually they set you right.
The law is for devices that come out of the box with a weak default. Like buying a wifi hotspot where the default is “admin123” would be bad. The default being random and printed on a label in the device is probably what this is aiming to usher in.
Just download it from a third party and compare the checksum with the official information. Granted, the official checksums on their website are behind a few steps, but you already tried on public Wi-Fi - once you generate the link a “Verify your Download” section should appear.
As a software developer, more frequently than I’d like. Pouring a couple weeks into an epic only to see the entire thing scrapped… At least I got paid.
Happens with personal projects too sometimes, I’ll start refactoring and decide at the end of the weekend I really don’t want to waste me next weekend on it and it’ll go to the archives lol.
But even in those cases, not entirely worthless. I still learned and grew my knowledge. Same applies to similar scenarios not related to writing code.

Growing up my parents had a Jesus on the cross statue carved out of coal. Does that count?
Yes and no. A custom kernel with a patch usually referred to as a “ttl fix” can, but a good amount of ROMs have that in their kernel by default.
Still works for me as of last year. Now I use rooted android with ttlfix.
I’m not actually and you tell from that. Did you follow a guide / what precise steps did you perform?
Or those scummy click bait ads disguised as related articles? They make my blood boil with how they prey on the vulnerable.
Copilot / LLM code completion feels like having a somewhat intelligent helper who can think faster than I can, however they have no understanding of how to actually code, but are good at mimicry.
So it’s helpful for saving time typing some stuff, and sometimes the absolutely weird suggestions make me think of other scenarios I should consider, but it’s not going to do the job itself.
