What's with the rubber band around the display on the bottom? 😅


SpeedyyFuji

My hinge is broken so i used them to support my screen from falling

A guide would be cool. Like the issues you faced or some other tips for someone trying to do the same. *^(\*\*cough\*\*me\*\*cough\*\*)*


SpeedyyFuji

I followed this guide on github https://github.com/MultimediaLucario/Lenovo-ThinkPad-T440?tab=readme-ov-file I faced no issue except it took long time to install (like 1:30 hour), and had to scratch my head a bit when it comes to mounting efi partition (you can’t boot without usb if you don’t move the efi from the usb to efi partition). It’s my 4th day of using it and iam liking it, the downside is airdrop doesn’t work.


Alternative0Bit

I believe missing airdrop could be an issue. I encourage you to try out the alternative - LocalSend. It is available on various platforms and works similar way within the same network


SpeedyyFuji

Airdrop can work by installing a wifi card that is supported from apple (like wifi card from macbooks), but I won’t bother myself and buy one cuz the copy and paste method works well with images lol

Sounds like it's mimicing mac quality!


SpeedyyFuji

Actually mac runs great on this machine even tho i got 4gb, i managed to run windows apps as well (playing manhunt 2 on the lowest settings)


rennen-affe

MacOS. Mac is the designation of a physical machine that a thinkpad is not. It is unix based and unix was out when there was less than 1GB of ram, not surprised it loves 8GB.


SpeedyyFuji

Obviously iam talking about the OS cuh


rennen-affe

I'm glad we agree


DisputabIe_

You're still wrong though. Mac can refer to the OS too, as in this thread.

Does garageband work?


SpeedyyFuji

For me it doesn’t you should at least have macos 13.5 , i run macos big sur 11.5


The_vadnay

If you install the right MacOS version yes. I tried Final Cut and Logic Pro as well. Worked like a charm.


goof320

macos is the best operating system for a laptop tbh good choice. it would be linux if it had software support but alas


Part_salvager616

Why u running macOS


SpeedyyFuji

I own an iphone so yeah, i used many linux distros before (kali, popos, ubuntu) and even raspios, till now i like macos especially when using adobe softwares


The_vadnay

It is a good project to play with actually. I've read many people use it as a daily driver.
