What kind of laptop are you using?

>tfw i see a laptop pleb

Let me guess, you're running Sup Forumsentoo and are a huge weeaboo.

Nope. I just like business class laptops that you can get for cheap on eBay.

I have a Y470 and an X200T.
Don't use them much anymore though.

I have 2, right now im on my MacBook

surface pro 3

acer aspire: poor fag edition

A t410 with an i5 and 8gb of ram that I got for $175 on ebay. Thinkpads are indestructible and cheap

Dell Latvitude
Dell has good GNU/Linux support and the NSA hardware implants make me feel wanted and special.

Xiaomi Mi Air with Linux Mint on it uezs

>germautist uses linux
typical

I'm a Linux technician, so it's kind of normal to me..

I have a Thinkpad R61 that I rarely ever use.
Build quality is great, battery life not so much.

x201 with i5, 4gb of RAM and new 120gb SSD. I bought it used in summer for 710zł (~160 euro). I tried to upgrade RAM with another 4gb, but it keeps hanging while booting windows.

>ctrl+f Macbook
>no results
So proud of you, Sup Forums, I thought this place had gone full Reddit

>mfw mac uses statistically proven earns more money

What is Reddit about Macs?

That's because Macbook laptops are more expensive on average.

>rich people are more likely to waste money on expensive fashion items
You don't say

Asus K501

I would have bought a macbook actually, if they were remotely upgradeable. Not only is the RAM soldered on, but even the HDD isn't upgradeable.

It's impossible to use one in public and look like somebody with testosterone

>laptop

liar

I filtered M*xican posters

The angry americANO

Thinkpad T420s

>PlayStation
nice. just put that garbage out of the way for a better shot nex ttime

>wastes all his money on a macbook
>still plays a PSX
YOU CANT MAKE THIS SHIT UP

lenovo blaze it

i'm not on a laptop haha

Latitude E6440 with the big ass slice battery.

Loving the ~12 hours autonomy

this

I've dropped and knocked it into things dozens of times, but it still works fine. I also spilled yogurt on the track pad once, it didn't work for a day but works fine now.

I collect consoles m8 I don't play on them
For that I have a custom build PC

I broke all three of my labtops

What's the point of a laptop?

I already have a desktop and a smartphone

Is that an x200 lad? I'm using the same at the moment

It looks nothing like an x200

Laptop is a mid 2010 15 inch macbook pro running 10.11.6

Desktop is windows 7, i7 870, gtx 670, 8 gigs ram

They're both old as fuck but work fine

>post-2012 """Ultrabook""" chinkpad
Lel, enjoy your botnet kiddo. x200 masterrace reporting in.

I have a Acer.

Having issues with my Keyboard. Some letters are failing, everytime i'm typing they fail and i have to hold till they come up and now they aren't coming no more.

Halp.

I fucking love Bill Burr; Lenovo Thinkpad T450S

What happened in 2013? Is that the year the botnet was invented?

Pop the keys off and rub a banana into it, then put the keys back on. It'll help the switches register the pressure from a keystroke.

The year they abandoned old keyboard layout and introduced cancer slim models.
Botnet was invented in 2006, but can be removed on pre-2009 models.
>inb4 we are Sup Forums now

I'd just like to interject for moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realising it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

it's right here you dumb fuck

No, Richard, it's 'Linux', not 'GNU/Linux'. The most important contributions that the FSF made to Linux were the creation of the GPL and the GCC compiler. Those are fine and inspired products. GCC is a monumental achievement and has earned you, RMS, and the Free Software Foundation countless kudos and much appreciation.

Following are some reasons for you to mull over, including some already answered in your FAQ.

One guy, Linus Torvalds, used GCC to make his operating system (yes, Linux is an OS -- more on this later). He named it 'Linux' with a little help from his friends. Why doesn't he call it GNU/Linux? Because he wrote it, with more help from his friends, not you. You named your stuff, I named my stuff -- including the software I wrote using GCC -- and Linus named his stuff. The proper name is Linux because Linus Torvalds says so. Linus has spoken. Accept his authority. To do otherwise is to become a nag. You don't want to be known as a nag, do you?

(An operating system) != (a distribution). Linux is an operating system. By my definition, an operating system is that software which provides and limits access to hardware resources on a computer. That definition applies whereever you see Linux in use. However, Linux is usually distributed with a collection of utilities and applications to make it easily configurable as a desktop system, a server, a development box, or a graphics workstation, or whatever the user needs. In such a configuration, we have a Linux (based) distribution. Therein lies your strongest argument for the unwieldy title 'GNU/Linux' (when said bundled software is largely from the FSF). Go bug the distribution makers on that one. Take your beef to Red Hat, Mandrake, and Slackware. At least there you have an argument. Linux alone is an operating system that can be used in various applications without any GNU software whatsoever. Embedded applications come to mind as an obvious example.

Next, even if we limit the GNU/Linux title to the GNU-based Linux distributions, we run into another obvious problem. XFree86 may well be more important to a particular Linux installation than the sum of all the GNU contributions. More properly, shouldn't the distribution be called XFree86/Linux? Or, at a minimum, XFree86/GNU/Linux? Of course, it would be rather arbitrary to draw the line there when many other fine contributions go unlisted. Yes, I know you've heard this one before. Get used to it. You'll keep hearing it until you can cleanly counter it.

You seem to like the lines-of-code metric. There are many lines of GNU code in a typical Linux distribution. You seem to suggest that (more LOC) == (more important). However, I submit to you that raw LOC numbers do not directly correlate with importance. I would suggest that clock cycles spent on code is a better metric. For example, if my system spends 90% of its time executing XFree86 code, XFree86 is probably the single most important collection of code on my system. Even if I loaded ten times as many lines of useless bloatware on my system and I never excuted that bloatware, it certainly isn't more important code than XFree86. Obviously, this metric isn't perfect either, but LOC really, really sucks. Please refrain from using it ever again in supporting any argument.

Last, I'd like to point out that we Linux and GNU users shouldn't be fighting among ourselves over naming other people's software. But what the heck, I'm in a bad mood now. I think I'm feeling sufficiently obnoxious to make the point that GCC is so very famous and, yes, so very useful only because Linux was developed. In a show of proper respect and gratitude, shouldn't you and everyone refer to GCC as 'the Linux compiler'? Or at least, 'Linux GCC'? Seriously, where would your masterpiece be without Linux? Languishing with the HURD?

If there is a moral buried in this rant, maybe it is this:

Be grateful for your abilities and your incredible success and your considerable fame. Continue to use that success and fame for good, not evil. Also, be especially grateful for Linux' huge contribution to that success. You, RMS, the Free Software Foundation, and GNU software have reached their current high profiles largely on the back of Linux. You have changed the world. Now, go forth and don't be a nag.

Thanks for listening.

T. Russian hacker trying to trick me into buying a 2008 laptop so he can read my emails

is a meh laptop, kinda underpowered. Only thing I liked is its design and that it becomes a very descent tablet, also the battery last a descent amount of time.

I have a custom pc anyways, this is just my shitposting machine

Nice, I have a T420.

Also,

>mfw I see a macfag

right now I'm on my macbook pro but I also have a desktop I built

I use the mac for web browsing because it's silent and portable while the desktop hums and is not portable
