define "they" or u wrong !!!!!!!!
no he isn't he's just at a cliff !!!
Thing is everywhere i look says otherwise, reviees say the SP11 is quiet and doesnt overheat, and is quite performant. Plus, my main use case is going to be development, which i cant find anyone writing about, but I've heard the DX is on par for Windows. Rust doesnt seem to have issues with ARM as you have stated the heaviest I'll be running in games is going to be ULTRAKILL at most, which runs on a T450 smoothly so there is minimal doubt the x86 emulator can't take it. I'm not keen on buying an Apple laptop, but I'll consider it should a guy I know who has an M1 Macbook convince me well enough, and if I'm buying x86 again its either a newer Thinkpad (as in, not with a slow CPU and seemingly a long lifetime with a precious user). I'm increasingly eyeing up the Thinkpad P1 Gen 1/2 ( I know another guy who had one and even in 2024 it would RIP AND TEAR UNTIL ITS DONE ), is it still good?
Also, since I feel I haven't dismissed your "M4 is better" point: There isnt an M4 Macbook yet, and the M3 is beyond my price range, costing over 3k€. The SP11 is 1.25k€ for comparison 1, 2, 3, while an M1 Mac is 1k€.
Finally, a small side note: you haven't really "backed" or provided sources for any of your arguments, whereas I've linked sources for as many statements as I can. If you want, I can also provide screenshots of my friends' testimonies)
EDIT: Weird, you stated the M4 makes the X1 bite the curb, but that doesn't seem to be the case[X1] [M4]
replacing the thinkpad
that's why I said "by 2015 standards", thats when the t450 released.
any in greece?
replacing the thinkpad
explained in the description, random graphical artifacts and glitches that seem to persist across OSes

"peak build quality and repairability" not anymore. repairbility by 2015 standards isnt great, by today standards its average to good. that's a problem because the aging CPU can't be changed.

failing igpu (igpu == gpu is part of cpu) but the cpu is soldered on
replacing the thinkpad
of course i did
Apparently, it isn't as good as Apple's ARM processor
Not from what my searching shows, the X1P curbstomps the M1.
AMD processors are almost what you’re looking for - low-power processors, highly performant iGPU, bang for buck
I've used a laptop with a (i think it was) Ryzen 5 5500u and it was the complete opposite of that. Lags on midnight protocol (game), it cost almost 1000euros, aka the same price as the Surface Pro 11 here, and it hit peaks of 101C, averaging at 70.
I've started looking more into getting an ARM laptop. I know a bloke who has an M1 Macbook and it has indescribable battery life without sacrificing performance. Apple is out of the question due to their walled garden, though (I don't want to get sucked into their ecosystem and end up with an iPhone, Apple Watch, and who knows what else), so Snapdragon X series it is for me.
They don't ship to where I live ¯(ツ)_/¯
edit: nvm they do now
Not only TiVO, IIRC Tecno (the phone company) is in violation of the GPL-2.0 too by not providing device trees.
...and the two heads.
Nope, it's my own fetch ( github mirror )
it's refreshing
