Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Ten year old laptop is 2013 (this post seems to be from 2023). That's really not old at all. I use a 17 year old machine and it works great for basic tasks.
17? As in 2007? What are the specs on that thing? You running a lightweight linux distro on it? Surely you have an SSD in there and have upgraded the ram.
It's a ThinkPad T61 running Gentoo. I upgraded it to 4GB of RAM and an SSD. Works fine with 10 browser tabs and youtube
linux on an ssd without a DE goes hard as fuck on anything that has no beans in it what so ever.
WM are the shit.
I can run KDE just fine on a ThinkPad T61 from 2007
It's interesting how light KDE has gotten. It used to be the big, bloated desktop environment that you wouldn't even try using on old hardware. It seems to have traded places with GNOME.
Gnome isn't really bloated either. I've seen people run Gnome on a T400 (2008)
probably? Kde is a little spicy, but i'd be surprised if it wasn't usable to be honest.
I mean it's not like I have a choice. If I stop using KDE then Konqi will come to my house at night and kill me in my sleep. I've sold my soul to them
i've used KDE for 4 years, jumped off prior to KDE6 to move to i3wm, and he hasn't killed me yet.
I'm also a furry, so that's probably why.
TL;DR just be a furry and it won't be a problem lmao.
i have a couple of 11-12 release year thinkpads, they're super capable, not productivity monsters, but they're fine.
