If it’s 1/10 of the cost of purchasing them from TSMC, it’s viable

Yes

You spend a lot of time fighting snaps. I wanted to install GrapheneOS which needs direct access to USB from the browser. Snaps can’t do that, so I had to hunt for a chromium .deb on the web. Might as well use windows if I’m doing to Google “$software installer”

Not showing engagement is a choice, they don’t want people to interact with the most popular things

But everyone just wants Twitter, not someone’s ideas of what social media should be

Because it doesn’t have search (at least my instance doesn’t), doesn’t show engagement so the whole thing feels empty like people are posting into the void

I don’t know what that would do for me, though, what can I do on the LAN when the internet gateway is down? Also, why should the gateway reboot? I would like it to be up all the time

Why would I? I just want to run OpenWRT for the features, I don’t even use ethernet other than the port in

Definitely in the vein of what I was looking for, but for almost $90 I am going to ask for WiFi 6E

I believe it, but in a different scenario

Imagine the worker does some work, but it takes ten hours more of other people’s testing to find all the bugs, and ten hours of someone more competent to fix them. Even though he did twenty hours of work, if he never showed up the pace of the work, someone doing it better might not affect others by just being more correct and actually might save others work by organizing the code in a way that is easier to understand.

It is not obvious that people who do a lot of work are actually positively benefiting the overall effort. I’ve certainly had to go and rewrite terrible code before. If it wasn’t there, I wouldn’t need to read it to see if it needed to be rewritten in the first place.

Right now the handhelds with Windows cost a lot more since they are paying for a license

So for the cheapest models it’s still Linux

Desktop mode, I use it every day to watch videos on the TV

When it’s released on other devices it’s going to be huge

If SteamOS is the default choice for gaming because of handheld devices, desktop linux may well be adopted.

Windows doesn’t do what I want out of the box. Does it come with an ssh client? Wireguard?

So you must care quite a bit, then

TikTok is banned in China

That feel when you switch languages to chat and the hotkeys don’t work

You can have 6 ports of any kind you like on the framework 16

Then just buy a framework like I did and switch ports whenever you feel like it

That’s why I bought a framework 16
