Intel mulls cutting ties to 16 and 32-bit support

Considering many modern machines don't have a BIOS CSM anymore, you'll probably have bigger problems running e.g. ArcaOS than x86-S...

The ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 10 as a Linux laptop

Re: Optional

Sadly, that option wasn't available for the X1 Nano Gen2, but I bought one anyway. Like the X1 Carbon Gen10, everything works but the MIPI webcam out of the box (though I did manually patch the kernel to fix it, so it now works too). When I bought my X220 years ago, I could still buy from Lenovo with no OS; now, unless they specifically choose to support it with Linux, you have to pay for Windows.
