This is not a conversation about guns. This is a conversation about items that have withstood abuse that are near unbreakable.

Some items I have heard referenced as AK47 of:

Gerber MP600: It’s a multi tool

Old Thinkpad Laptops

Mag lights

Toyota Hilux

    Can confirm with the old thinkpads. They’re not great for gaming, but the keyboard, track pack, and eraser head are solid for writing and other office-like work.

      Hmm, yes, “eraser head”… That’s what I call it too.

      I definitely don’t call it the mouse clit. Who would call it that?

      Certainly not me.

      I had one that lasted for 12 years. By the end it was more of a media centre connected to my TV, but still.

        I bought a T14 Gen 2 on eBay for about $250. It can play some older games like Morrowind, but I mostly use it for book writing, D&D games, video downloading/ripping/burning, browsing, and such.

        I put Linux Mint on mine and it runs like a dream.
