And of course I’m installing Linux on it. Install went well, even the fingerprint sensor built in to the laptop works.
Mostly this will be a school and DND machine but always nice to have a functional laptop for whatever else I may need it for.

Be careful of USB C ports. They are unreliable but absolutely required to charge.
Yeah, valid, but the BIOS upgrade (fwupd) that is normal with linux fixes it. Still, an issue to consider if buying second hand.
Oof will keep an eye on that. Thanks for the tip!
Gentle on disconnect. Im using a 90 bend connector that is permanently on the remaining USB c connector.
If that fails too, will just spend a couple hundred and buy another Lenovo laptop. No huhu
Is this an issue for all thinkpads or that particular model?
And can’t be replaced. Sister has a t580 with a mangled USB c poet. Only one left to charge.
