STOP ALL OTHER (non-X220) LAPTOP THREADS. This it it. This is /ourguy/ 2018

looks gay

Name 2 laptops that can be spec'd without a mic.

Also all thinkpads I've dealt with could disable any individual peripheral through BIOS.

>kiketel
*dabs on you*

The X260 could be spec'd without a mic or a camera.

Trusting BIOS to disable hardware functionality is as retarded as trusting hardware switches. In fact, even more so.

1440p isn't bad
>muh font rendering

>I don't care if I can physically block the camera I don't want my machine with it why won't manufacturers cater to me alone while everyone else doesn't mind or wants a camera on their business laptop to have video conferences with REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Literal autism. If you don't 'trust' hardware switches you don't fucking know anything about tech and you're just a paranoid brainlet who's scared of shit he doesn't understand.

>Name 2 laptops that can be spec'd without a mic.
Everything in the Lenovo Thinkpad line prior to the inclusion of the Thinkshutter.

I'll wait for the AMD version

What's the AMD version? Is there one actually coming? I want that too.

As far as software is concerned, disabling something in BIOS is the same as physically disconnecting it. It's not going to be visible or usable to anything outside of the BIOS.

AS far as you know.

he's implying what I've jokingly said for years. gubment spyware is hard coded into all hardware

When even the battery in a laptop comes with it's own controller that requires firmware, trusting hardware explicitly is retarded.

>disable thing in BIOS
>OS can't find or use it, regardless of whether it's running Lincucks, Wincucks, or FagOS
wow

so this is the power of autism

>Thinking that disabling something in closed source BIOS does what you think it does.

If the OS cannot see it, only BIOS, then the hacker must have access outside OS. That most likely means that they were involved in creating the BIOS and/or hardware. It's not certain that the hardware is actually disabled but it narrows down the people who could exploit it. The script kiddie from next door wouldn't be able to activate it but some agencies might. You wouldn't be safe from the government but you would be safe from hackers. Not the person you replied to, btw.

Probably not anytime soon, but my laptop can last another 3 years. By then AMD should have enough market share in laptops for something like this to have it.

You're preaching to the choir.

modern bios can be configured from windows and most people wont even have a bios password and thats the only thing that protects it.

a government agent will peek at you for the lols just like the script kiddie next door would ha ha ha
like don't tell me you're an incel who doesn't lurk former high school qts on facebook

Stop using shit DEs.

>Lenovo
Enjoy your terrible build quality.

>shitting on lenovo build quality

name one laptop with better build quality

Literally Apple. Apple's manufacturing tolerances are the tightest in the industry by far. Nigger my W530's trackpoint buttons don't even sit exactly in the middle of the cut-out. I have a bunch of ThinkPads all with slightly odd or out of place panels and gaps. Lenovo's QC is a joke. If I put them all in a bag and shook them around it would sound like a fucking rattlesnake. Weird creaks out of nowhere.

Literally everyone you read. You can literally cut your fingers on the edges of the new yoga 920, a fucking convertible they expect you to hold in your hands

I will never ever understand the point of touch displays on laptops

>i7-8650U

Does it thermal throttle hard like the T480?

probably anything that goes to the military or companies that care about that stuff

>Intel

I'd want to be able to put it on my lap without the risk of 3rd degree burns

>like don't tell me you're an incel who doesn't lurk former high school qts on facebook
I'm European and have a gf and I don't really use Facebook even though I made an account years ago. Incel isn't very accurate term in my case. I wasn't really talking about myself anyway, I was talking in general. People could weigh the pros and cons of either of those disabling methods and decide how far they are willing to go without being inconvenienced too much. Do they care about being spied on by agencies as well or just script kiddies?

help im trying to build a lil rig. it'll be mostly for editing 4k, and RED footage as well as some motion graphics and C4D. Please advise

Truth?

Qualcomm isn't there yet.
Either way, AMD will never be, faggot.

Let me guess, it has a dual core ULV processor.

Tripfag completely missing the point again. Yawn.

He is right tho. You don't need to be an applefag to aknowledge this fact. Just because their production quality is great doesn't mean their engineering isn't shit to begin with.

t. Used to work at a repair shop

Step 1) Don't get a laptop

I didn't miss the fact that you disagreed with the assessment that AMD laptops being garbage was more than enough reason to buy Intel.

Was there some other point? I'm asking rhetorically because I already know the answer.

Good luck trying to replace the hard drive, RAM or wireless card. Lenovo whitelists that shit so you have to to buy it through them for a high price. The exact same one from some other vendor won't work.

Lenovo is occasionally shit, but Apple is consistently shit. They repeat their engineering mistakes for decades.

Is this an attempt at satire? Nobody is seriously this dumb.

i have to, my job requires me to work on location and while traveling

Actually Apple always goes with the absolute cheapest parts.

If you want an AMD dgpu and a low res screen Apple is fine, but retina by todays standards basically means 480p or dvd rips.

My fucking 5" phone has a higher resolution than a Macbook Pro.

That you would still tout Apple as a superior product in a situation like that is fucking ludicrous.

It wasn't an attempt, nobody is dumb enough to not realize that it WAS satire.

I'm literally so bored with your responses that I have to pretend to be someone that cares enough to refute them.

Good quality control ≠ high value of used parts.
Stop being a dipshit. Apple has(had?) amazing quality control, this way they distract from the fact that everything they use is trash. Don't get so triggered.

Was that a question?

Because they didn't have amazing quality control in quite a number of products. They had screens burning in, phones that lost signal if you held them a certain way, keyboards that damaged screens, cords that failed, batteries that failed, literally released multiple versions of the same phone with inferior hardware, pretty sure there was a fucking training video telling geniuses to never admit apple was at fault with a fucking literal list of scenarios...

The reality distortion field is real. Its called marketing and your a fucking victim.

Good quality control ≠ tight manufacturing tolerances.
Apple doesn't have amazing quality control. You'd have to be delusional to believe this. They have tight manufacturing tolerances which gives their products a good external fit, but aside from that they're garbage.

That is what I was talking about, their manufacturing quality control is good. Their engineering quality control is terrible or just deliberately bad for the sake of planned obsolence.
They pulled that shit since the 80s, Steve Jobs prevented engineers from adding fans to their Macintosh line because hearing the computer would make it seem "less advanced"
That's my entire point, they deliver precicely manufactured turds to give their customers the subjective feeling of high quality.

The current X1 has an amazing display, unironically. It's their premium flagship, but you're right about that most of their displays are trash.
