I have seen a ton of P52 laptops used in the architecture and engineering industry. I would lean that way or a more modern option depending on budget. P1 laptops are also pretty cool. Not as powerful but more portable and slimmer.

I am pulling this totally out of my ass, and I might be making assumptions to aren't necessarily true or accurate. But, maybe you can run a powered USB 2.0 hub on one of those 3.0 ports. My assumption would be the chain would only be as strong as the weakest link (2.0 hub) that you might be able to get 2.0 performance on those 3.0 ports.
This would at least possibly eliminate or confirm down stepping to 2.0 as a solution
But I have not had this issue and could not tell you if it would work or not.
I distro hopped. i mainly used pop, but I had poor performance with gnome so I started hopping again. And after using arch and opensuse, but after several updates causing issues, I moved to Fedora mainly to try atomic distros. After loving Kinoite and bazzite, I put fedora KDE on my main machine and I don't see myself leaving.
I disagree with my mah and old man a lot. But, when I was having hard times as a kid, giving them headaches and heartaches, and when I struggled as an adult they were there to tell me they loved me, hug me, feed me regardless of what I believed. They have always loved me unconditionally.
If it ain't illegal. I'll host it for them, no questions asked. If I ever needed anything, those are two people I know will be there every time, without fail. It's the least I can do to try and pay them back, even if I know I never could.
The toxicity is awful. I tried to learn once since I had a buddy that loved the game and I was looking for a game to dump some hours in. This was about 10 years ago or so. My buddy told me he would help teach me the game so I could at least understand what people were saying. It took him one game to start trashing my playing. I fucked off of that game and never played again.
I do not understand how anyone continues to stay in a toxic fanbase even if they really love the game.
I will keep an eye on that. But that is good info to have. I appreciate it!
That's a fair point.
I think Linux phones would be super cool. And I dream one day it will become a properly usable reality. But what I really want is a properly supported, powerful ARM based laptop. Something approaching apple M series performance with the same kind of battery life. If Ubuntu can nail that, or another distro like asahi Linux, I will be happy with that and using graphene OS.
Wish I could help. Unfortunately the newest cards I have is a laptop 2080, and a desktop 1080ti. Once I can upgrade (likely never at this point) I will be moving to team red.
Ubuntu 11 netbook remix. Currently on Fedora Onyx on my laptop and Kinoite on Desktop.
Sounds like you prefer windows. If you do not have any moral conundrum around using it, go back. Makes no sense to use an OS on your computer that you do not prefer.
I love Linux, sometimes I have issues, but for the work I do it is much easier to do on Linux than on windows. Also I have some moral qualms with Windows and Microsoft and I would rather have a broken machine than one with Windows.
If that is not you, then I would just use what you like.
That is a fair point. But for CAD work I am unsure of a better option with used ThinkPads. Currently I am running an x11 DE with proprietary drivers on mine and it is acceptable even though it isn't perfect.
