What are some older laptops that have nice form factors that might be cheaper now and fun to mess with?
I gave away my Linux machine to a friend and I'm not willing to mess with my windows laptop until I'm out of college.
Thanks in advance!

(Looking for more than just thinkpads which I love as much as the rest of you!)

AnySoftKeyboard has gesture typing now as a beta feature that you can turn on! It's terrible, but I'm excited that they're working on it and hopeful that they get it into a useable state eventually!

Anyone used mailbox.org for email? I tried Posteo but the web interface was super buggy and didn't allow me to send mail or view the calendar.

Booted into windows and it made me so so happy to see "Microsoft Compatibility Telemetry" coming in third as the application with the most disk usage. Hurray for Microsoft. Don't you love it when Big Brother is nice enough to tell you how many resources they use on your computer?

Oh so very sad. They look so nice... Apparently milkweed acreage is declining so they have difficulty surviving. Californians with gardens: plant milkweed!

@kev I strongly disagree that the algorithm for duckduckgo is bad. It's just not google's and when you've used it for more than a decade its really hard to switch to another one.

It takes more than a month to train yourself to use duckduckgo.

DuckDuckGo is switching to use Apple Maps instead of with Mapbox. I'm ready to leave ddg now, but don't know where to turn yet.
Come to think of it, I normally went to openstreetmap.org to use maps anyway but this still makes me sad.

I really want to like and but I'm so accustomed to AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Inventor, and Fusion 360. I wish they were more similar. After learning Inventor, SolidWorks was a breeze. Unfortunately FreeCAD does not follow this rule and neither does LibreCAD and I don't have the time to learn new (unfortunately workplace irrelevant) software. 😥

I'd even settle for Linux ports so I wouldn't have to boot windows

@brandon I've seen you talking about LibreOffice's UI and it looked as ugly as you make it out to be on my and installs. I've been running Solus (Budgie) for about a month now and have not changed any themes/icons/etc and it looks much nicer. Not sure what makes it do that, just thought I'd share.
