I recently upgraded from my W541 to a T470 I got for cheap. And I only upgraded due to hardware decoding features being a tad bit newer on the T470 and USB-C being kinda cool to utilise.
From an colleague of mine, who bought an M1 Macbook Pro when they were new; he told me that there was a Wine fork (don't know the name sadly) for Apple silicon which kinda worked with most (older) Steam games, not as nice as Proton on x86-64 Linux, but good enough for his game tastes. Don't know if it's still maintained or not...
Yes, I understand that GNOME (3+) has a place in Linux/nix world and that, from a common user's perspective, it might be enough or even more intuitive than Windows and MacOS ever were. Blind hating never helped anyone, especially in FOSS.
For me, as someone outside the common user's realm, the weird aftertaste of internal dev drama and their decisions which features are "needed" and which are not needed (server-side decorations, tray-items, etc.) deter me from using GNOME more than the annual one-month tryout ("Maybe it isn't that limiting to me as I thought?").
From what I could witness, most likely the "first abuser" is most likely a close family member, either the (step-)father or some uncle or grandfather - people who themselves believe in such values they call "traditional".
Yeah, depending on when you left "conventional social media", you missed out all of that.
That is the very same mechanism that, as of recent, censors/censored every mention and discussion of the Fediverse, alternative OSes, or any other way to fight back against these corporate forces. How dare people want to communicate freely and in their own way!?
I have a custom script, which changes the fan profile (in my case between two thinkfan config files) depending whether the dock is connected or not. That one gets triggered whenever it switches the power source (AC or BAT0). (AC gets plugged in -> script starts -> check if dock is connected -> if connected run different profile)
