   Bought a USB-C hub to use with my laptop and it didn't work. After checking up shit, turns out the Thunderbolt ports are dead, and the same thing happened to 40 other Lenovo laptop models.
   
   And the warranty expired. Talk about fucking planned obsolescence :yae_unamused:

     @OrangeyIs@bae.st Ironically enough the main culprit isn't Lenovo but Intel (apparently).
     
     At this rate my next laptop will most likely be a Panasonic Toughbook, lmao :kekw:
