Here's a good visual comparison of the X1 Nano vs the X1 Carbon

My wife discovers coil whine:

PSA: The new @[email protected] Pro 6 APs have terrible coil whine (or "piezoelectric effects in multilayer capacitors" as their engineer on Reddit put it). They are very noisy even from several feet away when they're pushing WiFi traffic.

The "soft-rim" TrackPoint cap from my X1C7 made by @[email protected] appears to clear the keys on my X1N1

I don't remember crying the first time I watched Interstellar, but the movie feels a lot different now watching it as a father

Apparently dachshunds are trending on Twitter for being jerks. RIP Carl :(

Here's the inside of the X1 Nano

Trying out OpenBSD on the ThinkPad X1 Nano

Works so far: Wifi, video, touchpad, audio
Not working: Suspend (no S3)

Keyboard is a short throw but feels good, not much different than I remember my X1 Carbon feeling

Doesn't seem to get too hot or have a loud fan, no coil whine

Am I the only one that really likes stickers but is afraid to commit to putting the rare ones on something permanently? I never keep laptops long enough to cover the lid with them and I don't know what else to put them on.

I previously mentioned using the Creative BT-W2 for Bluetooth audio on OpenBSD, but there's a new USB-C model that has hardware volume control
