It's like 8 years ago or so, I had the InfinityBook with a skylake processor.
Bluetooth stopped working, send it in then it worked and stopped again, then send it in and it worked and stopped again.
The microphone had broken noises, tested it even under windows to be sure it's a hardware problem.
Discoloration where the hands are left and right of the trackpad.
Plastic bezel around the screen fell off, the tape was bad quality.
Ah I wrote it down last year here:

I really wonder if they got any better, I had such a bad time with my tuxodo computer, had to send it for repair twice and replaced it with a used ThinkPad after less than a year.
You're right, it's a stick which is almost like a pipe because it was hallow inside. You can't see it very well in the picture.
You can't see it very well in the picture but this stick has a hole in it at the top.
My son found it on the playground and was carrying it the whole time. His mom didn't understand why he is so obsessed with this stick. Actually he had two in the beginning but threw away the other one but kept this one.
I tried to explain to his mom why this stick is cool but she kept saying she doesn't get it.
What are you talking about? You are digging yourself in a trench against me for some reason and you dig deeper every time. I have no idea what your agenda is, but I am stopping participation in it.
I don't know about you but I have always been a free software advocate, see
But anyway, I'm not interested in whatever this discussion derailed into.
Very disingenuous of you to fight a strawman and proclaim victory by claiming that I said things which I never did. But if that's what floats your boat. But for everyone else, try to find any mention of anti-libre software in the original claim.
My whole point is that you can not point to a 3rd party checking for you and claim that it secure because someone else already checked. And I brought two examples which contradict this claim.
I agree with that.
I don't agree with how it has been presented by the grandparent here as if open source somehow automatically makes it secure.
Yes, that is true, but let's not pretend that just because some one is theoretically able to, that all source code is constantly monitored by 3rd parties.
Yes, but we don't know what we don't know. There are many problems like that in open source too, and even if we can look nobody does.
Therefore I find it problematic to say that just because you use open source programs you're safe like the parent tried to.
This only would work if you check every line of source code, even the dependencies and build chain, and then build it yourself. See xz utils backdoor or heartbleed, etc.
We had a good run of two weeks of cherry blossoms everywhere, but now there are only a few trees left.
Probably any of the ThinkPads I had. They were sturdy and just ran everything I put on them. Second place would be the Dell XPS 13, I like it because it is very small and light, but in the one I have now they already had to replace the motherboard after a month and when holding it with one hand it bends and sometimes does a click on the trackpad, but I don't want to send it in a second time because I normally don't use it like that.
