Boycott US

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

Depends on what would have happened. I've dropped it multiple times, and I even once stood on it accidentally. Luckily, the Laptop is built very well, so it didn't got damaged.

In the first 3 years you're covered by the warranty if you don't accidentally damage it.
And for 5 years you can get spare parts from Lenovo for the T-Series, which aren't very expensive. So I would have probably fixed it with them. After that it would have depended on the availability and the price of the spare part vs buying a new laptop.

I even considered replacing it when I bought the last new battery a few months ago. But the new Thinkpads have really small batteries (only 50Wh while mine has 96Wh) and shitty battery life. So it wasn't that enticing to spend 1300+€ (and that's usually the crappy base configuration. They charge obscene prices for more RAM/SSD) to buy a laptop which is less useful for me.
