And they’re very happy, but after two years together the transition’s been a bit awkward.

The BIOS update came just over a year ago, but I’d long since given up checking the drivers and updates page. I’ve gotten so used to not being able to sleep the thing that it’s going to be a little odd having a real laptop again. I would have preferred the kernel hackers to do a workaround rather than just yelling at Lenovo and passing the buck back to the people who created the bug. That’s the problem with intractable institutions: it’s often tempting to stop fighting and just work around them.
