@irene I was only enlightened about 1.5 years ago and didnt buy this laptop with GNU/Linux (or GNU blus Linux) in mind 2.5 years ago. I just wanted a convertible with decent specs (i7 / 16GB or RAM). Back then that was the only decent choice. The 4k was just an added 'feature'

@CodeMasterAlex Nah, for once it aint Windows fault. I may dislike Windows for its... Quirks, but that one was on the maintainer of the package and on me 😅

@Root I'm fucking blind, that's why I even upscale 1080p sometimes 😂
But many highend notebooks come with 4k displays nowadays... -
@Haxk20 What good is 120Hz on a Laptop tho? So you can watch the terminal output scroll by even faster?
Found this in our codebase, apparently one of my co-workers had written this
So I spent the last two days wondering WTF I did wrong, because my Laptop (Debian STABLE mind you...) would only boot in read-only mode and therefore only TTY (which btw sucks donkey-balls on a 4k screen (see image for visualization)) but on the earlier Kernel 4.9.0-7, everything was dandy.
So apparently laptop-mode-tools managed to fuck shit up in a way yet unknown, but as soon as I yeeted that bitch off my harddrive, everything was working flawlessly again...
