A white #FOSS nerd twitches nervously.

For a moment, on some level, he understands. The hidden surveillance systems in proprietary software are working to *defend* his privilege, not attack it.

A right fashy little shithole.

capitalist economic theory: no one gives anything away without asking for something in return, and anything offered for free will be exploited by selfish people trying to profit from it

Hey there, I'm thinking about selling my T470.

CPU: Intel i7 @ 2.70GHz
RAM: 16GB DDR3
Storage: 512GB SSD

Webcam, Fingerprint sensor, card reader are all fitted.

The laptop is in almost-new condition. Casually used for ~8 months. No stickers and 1 year of warranty left.

I'd want maybe 750€ for it.

Boosts appreciated
