Technology

My only use that seemed reasonable for transparent screens is for collabertive workspaces where you want to more easily look at something and a coworker at the same time.

This marginal benifit for this niche use case just seems meh to me so far though...

Yeah, my first reaction was cool, but why do I need this again?

I kinda like the idea of the laptop industry coming up with a bunch of wild concepts where only one out of ten is ever useful. The car industry does this all the time.

If you go to car shows, you'll see all sorts of cars with a full glass passenger area. They'll never happen, one reason being that you can't fit an air con unit strong enough to keep the passengers from cooking on a sunny day, but they're neat to look at.

Aesthetic. Like is it good? Probably not. Is it cool? Hell yeah. In my eyes there’s two types of cyberpunk laptops: this, and some old beater running either arch or Debian. Of course Lemmy prefers the latter, but the former is just kinda it’s own variety of cool despite the ludicrous impracticality

It functions more like a drawing tablet, with the ability to put something behind the screen allowing you to easily trace it.

People who don't think about things before they buy.

Sometimes you just gotta build a thing.

Exactly. There's a market for that tech. Laptop ain't it.

The last 2 Lenovo laptops I purchased both caught fire and died same day I purchased them. That officially scared me away forever as a Lenovo customer.

I think the goal of their Yoga line was to suck their dick hence improving self worth.

That is because you got the wrong dick. You need to buy the Lenovo® Certified© Dick™ from Lenovo® directly for double the price, or, naturally, your hardware won't POST.

Alternatively, you can firmware disable the non-lenovo dick in the UEFI options, so that the laptop boots, fOr YoUr SeCuRiTeH.

Try to claim a warranty with them too.

Their tablets also fail to impress.
