add keepassxc to the list. I’ve avoided it for the longest times because I remember the horror that was the OG keepass. this is modern software, minimal footprint (miniscule compared to bitwarden’s electron crap), easy to use, the db is one file that’s easily syncthing-ed around, browser extensions, etc.
I mean, the american idiotic narrative of outraise, outspend, outcapitalist can get bent. when you’re faced with such an immense force of vast resources, you don’t raise a similar sized force and roll the dice on the outcome - you engage in asymetric warfare.
disperse all that shit in P2P networks with multiple redundancies with no single point of failure. who are they gonna sue, the i2p stack or whatever? fuck those fuckers.
I’d finance something like that with my meager resources, instead of filling some coffers to finance lawyers and whatnot.
I honestly never considered powered bikes as anything but a motorcycle alternative. they got nothing to do with bicycles and I don’t care about their potential demise (which is kinda overdramatic, that is nowhere on the horizon).
I know I have nothing but disdain and resentment when they hug bike paths, sidewalks, etc. and in my view those things should be in regular traffic lanes, same as mopeds and motorcycles.
as to the combustion part, no idea how prevalent that is but I wouldn’t keep this thing in my home or near it.
you already stated both options, there is no option #3. snapdragon support isn’t there yet, you’ll have to make do with Intel and AMD options; for the stated use cases, even 5-year old models will serve you plenty. ideapads, thinkbooks, whatevers are consumer-class models and shouldn’t be gotten used (not even new, in my opinion) as they have nothing in common with T-series thinkpads.
if you’d like to hang on to your hardware for longer, go with the T14 (no S-suffix) as those things are easily expandable, serviceable and cross-generation compatible (same docks etc.).
