They're more secure (albeit in many wsys security through obscurity) than private, although the privacy aspect is probably among the best you can get by default as far as I can tell. On the other hand, if you're willing to do some relatively simple steps and buy specific hardware, you can achieve better privacy and security on both mobile (graphene) and desktop (qubes) devices.

I personally dislike them for building unrepareable crap, tho.

I suspect those may depend on choosing a particular response to some of the previous questions

Sure, because more java is all they ever needed, apparently 🤣

CPUs are also somewhat choked. I had to use throttled to make mine run above 2.4 GHz under load. (You need HWP_MODE and possibly Disable_BDPROCHOT, if anyone's interested).

But other than that, waaaay better compared to ..70 laptops, and some models seem to beat maxed out t440p-s. Also quicksync massively speeds up video decoding/encoding, so I'm overall happy with mine so far.

Phew, count me relieved. The keyboard on that clone was pretty linear as far as I can remember with no variation in force applied whatsoever

The error shown in the image is unreadable. Can you take a pic of it specifically?

It's good and everything (although it was a bit rough around the edges here and there), but is a no-go for me personally, unless they've changed their license. When I last checked it wad not open source, but merely source available since the license basically said you're not allowed to modify the source code period. AGPL would've been a far better choice

How can one even prove or disprove what's unprovable? Well, unless like any god shows themselves and does specified extraordinary crap in controlled environment (and even then it'd be pretty much impossible to test if they created the universe/life/whatever or mb all the trickery relies upon "sufficiently advanced technology").
