Fucking stupid ass dumb cunt editor with ragebait article titles making me mad in the morning

Does that mean the TrackPoint is dead? No, thankfully. It will still appear in the other ThinkPads made by Lenovo, said a company spokesman. But for the 14- and 15-inch ThinkPad X9 Aura Editions launched at CES 2025 in Las Vegas, the TrackPoint has been removed entirely.

Senior Editor Mark Hachman I hope you have a terrible day and stub your toe today

Thank you for this comment, it makes me happy to know Lenovo have not removed their nipple.

A fine addition to my collection pcworld blocked from loading using adaway

[–] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I do miss AdAway, favorite part of rooting. I might be due for a trip down memory lane.

Make sure to read the Magisk installation instructions carefully (in case you choose Magisk).

Some things have changed, I messed up once thinking "I already know how this works" :D

Thankfully my Sony is supported for LOS, but I've been on the fence about getting an older pixel to try Graphene, just haven't gotten around to it with life being life

[–] alphapuggle@programming.dev 1 points 2 weeks ago

#1 Reason I still root is for adaway #2 reason is spite because Google thinks they own my phone

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Ironic, my collection is working well too

"Ragebait"? Really?

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 2 weeks ago

It seems like they intentionally used a misleading title that'd get some people on pitchforks, so yeah I'm calling it a ragebait

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

Yes! They're threatening to take away my clit mouse
