    Because what if the lasagna monster is the real one and really hates people worshipping the spaghetti monster and subjects anyone who worships it to eternal damnation?



  • I've not had any issues with the stylus - it works flawlessly . It uses the Wacom drivers, I believe, and has all pressure sensitivity. Of course the drawback is that it's a glass screen so it's more slippery than a drawing tablet, but it's still good imo.

    I don't have any issues with the bulkiness, but I use it primarily as a laptop for school and switch it to tablet mode if I need to draw or read PDFs, but besides that I usually just use it as a laptop. If you plan on spending most time with it as a tablet, you may want to go with that duet


  • I use a Lenovo IdeaPad flex 5 14" running Manjaro as my daily driver. Tablet with stylus works fine, and the fingerprint reader even works using some 3rs-party library for libfprintd. Only issue I have is sleep doesn't always work, (though that's a pretty standard problem for most Linux laptops) and I could never get it to rotate into portrait mode successfully (I tried tools to manually change the screen orientation but that makes the digitizer not line up properly with the new orientation.

    Another small note is that the built in keyboard started failing on me, and it's very difficult to replace, so I have to use an external keyboard now. This may be something you have to deal with but it didn't seem to be a common issue online.

    I would recommend threading your headphones through a clip. That way, when you get up, instead of pulling at a bad angle on your port, it'll pull straight out and avoid any damage to the headphones or your port.

    Obviously this heavily depends on how your audio port on your computer is oriented (I have a DAC sitting towards the back of my desk), but if you do have a orientation where it's possible, it's a headphone and port saver
