    CPUs are also somewhat choked. I had to use throttled to make mine run above 2.4 GHz under load. (You need HWP_MODE and possibly Disable_BDPROCHOT, if anyone’s interested).

    But other than that, waaaay better compared to …70 laptops, and some models seem to beat maxed out t440p-s. Also quicksync massively speeds up video decoding/encoding, so I’m overall happy with mine so far.

    I mean, they said they don’t like flatpak explicitly, and appimage is kinda the same thing but bulkier, standalone nix is similar as well except the lack of sandboxing stuff, and spinning another distro in a container seems overkill-ish. Idk, honestly, mb they prefer the windows way of downloading random installers from the web or that clusterslackery of placing stuff in /opt by hand
