Well kinda both. Got it used from my brother and I think it was the second gen made. It's dead since a few years tho. The battery died.

To be honest my old 2 gen iPad started showing cracks several years ago...
I'm really looking forward to the reddit trained AI that answers like this: This

Edit: Thanks for the downvotes kind stranger!
For us it was 'faces of death' (don't know if this is the exact title in English, but this is what the title would be translated literally) on copied VHS tapes. Glad I was a teen already when these circled around...
Just my experience as I started from a similar background. Some weeks ago I had the urge to try TWM myself for the first time. Long time DE user, mostly Ubuntu and switched to fedora some weeks prior. The way I did it was to install sway on top of my fedora installation (with gnome). This way I could and still can choose which session to start at login. And it gave me the opportunity to work out some things using gnome until I grasped what is going on and needed in sway. Over time I was able to build up my sway settings/apps that now I would feel relatively safe use it without a DE installed parallel. Next fresh install I will probably skip the DE and just use a TWM.
While I think that 5h of battery life with yt videos running is ok for a t490 you could still try to recalibrate the battery with tlp.
I have a t470s (has two internal batteries) where suddenly the performance of one of the batteries somehow got really bad. After calibration it works as good as before (upower says it's at about 80%). I did the calibration in windows tho with Lenovo vantage as I'm still running a dual boot setup and didn't know about tlp before.
Haha same here...
Respect for the dedication! And welcome on Lemmy!
Bittä und Dankä!
