We got lenovo's in my last job. I did support software tools for internal usage. Pay was low but work was not overbearing and I could have spent my whole life there. Current job, I got a MinisForum mini PC, what does that mean?

You will never receive any acknowledgement or raises.

Special rule:

Thinkpad but with 1600x900 resolution on the 24" screen and full hd on a 22" screen in the office.

That buys you only around 2 years from personal experience.

Still gonna get laid off, but at least your index finger gets a little more action.

What about a Framework laptop?

Edit: or a desktop that you can remote into from your personal machine if you want to work outside the office?

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Wouldn't it either be a really new start up or a non profit foss group? Talking about framework
