A good friend of mine gave me these stickers in a package for something else a year or so ago, custom printed and sized to fit the ThinkPad logos on his laptop.

Unfortunately, my ThinkPad logos are a bit bigger than the ones on his model, so I'll have to think of some other uses, but look at them!



I desperately needed a cheap refurb laptop for some very important life stuff, I got my small inheritance last week so I bought this from a local refurb place.

It's a ThinkPad T14s with Core i7, 16GB Memory and 512GB NVMe storage. I paid a lot less than what it would normally cost on the used market because it seemed to be part of a job lot with a bunch of busted keyboards and screens, but this one only had a minor keyboard problem (trackpoint doesn't work), which means its still usable out of the box and I can replace the keyboard later if I really need to.

After briefly making sure it worked in Windows 10 'Pro', I immediately went to installing Fedora on it. There are some snags in the details, but it mostly installed fine!

It's nice having GNOME on a computer full time!

(The name is from an orc name gen that I used to make my other name (Dzuk), my desktop is called 🌸 Plompy💫 lmao)
