Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I own one thinkpad laptop, the p15v gen 3, I daily drive it for school. So far its been working great. My only issue with it is that since i have an i7-12800h, the thermals suck. Its an amazing laptop though. Running arch btw.

Might be time to swap the thermal compound. Also look into a laptop cooling pad, though that’ll reduce portability.

Its only a 3 year old laptop, and I got it practically brand new. I will look into both, but for now it works great for school.
