The Framework Laptop 13 is about to become one of the world’s first RISC-V laptops

  • Just buy one if you need. I don't understand people who prefer forced bundles over deciding what to buy.

    Unless you think an included charger is free. It's not, it's factored in the price.

    • Forget about Windows on Arm, wheres Windows on RISC-V?

    Jump

  • Also when Mac went from PPC to x86

    • Here's what's happening to ad blockers in Google Chrome (and other browsers)

    Jump

  • Use Firefox if you want but don't donate to Mozilla. Money doesn't go to Firefox development anyway.

    Also if they can afford to pay their CEO $3 millions a year, they don't need your donations.

    • AI took their jobs. Now they get paid to make it sound human

    Jump

  • It's probably replacing garbage written by humans that nobody was reading either.

    So in this case, garbage content that nobody reads, AI is probably a good idea.

    • America’s assassination attempt on Huawei is backfiring

    Jump

  • Yes, on the licensing front RISC-V is better.

  • How can you have a preference if you don't understand?

    • America’s assassination attempt on Huawei is backfiring

    Jump

  • It's neither. It's a specification that you can use to build your own chip.

    So it's more like MPEG where you can read the doc and create your own implementation.

    Jump

  • No it's not, anyone can get a license to create an ARM chipset but you do need to pay for a license.

    • I banned my daughter from using the iPhone she bought. It made her a better person | Em Rio

    Jump

  • Read the article. Her mom agreed to it, and they set rules. It's after that that it went bad.

    • Lockdown mode in Android 15 protects your phone from 'juice jacking'

    Jump

  • This is only useful if you're not using your own cable. Otherwise you can simply use a "power only" cable.

    • Pebblebee Tag for Android review: I couldn't Find My Device

    Jump

  • I thought the Apple network and the new Android network work together? Meaning it just work just as well as an apple tag

    • Solar modules deployed in France in 1992 still provide 75.9% of original output power

    Jump

  • It's still a good joke!

  • Just read to the top comment saying it's profitable to replace them anyway.

    • Nvidia is now worth $102M per employee

    Jump

    • GOG will let you bequeath your game library to someone else as long as you can prove you're actually dead

    Jump

  • The title is wrong. It's not about proving that the owner is dead (which is easy, you get a death certificate when a relative dies).

    It's about proving that the person requesting access of the dead person account is actually the person legally receiving the dead person's possessions (or GOG account specifically).

    • Why are arcade cabinets so expensive?

    Jump

  • The hardware in an arcade cabinet is either a raspberry pi or a regular desktop PC.

    • What is/was your distrohopping journey?

    Jump

  • Nothing in particular, for the past few years I didn't like the direction Ubuntu was taking but I stayed because I was too lazy to switch and it didn't feel that bad.

    So I'm not sure exactly what was the last straw, maybe part of it was me getting a Steam Deck, discovering flatpak and understanding how bad snap was compared to it.

    • What is/was your distrohopping journey?

    Jump

  • It just works, just like Ubuntu before they started pushing snap down everyone's throat (which is what made me switch eventually.)

    I had a bad image of RedHat/Fedora's package management from the time deb was much superior, but no they caught up and are on the same level (I know, it's probably been a while).

    I also like how they mostly package upstream without too many changes. When Ubuntu started upstream was a bit lacking so making changes was necessary to get something that looks like a consistent OS rather than a patchwork of packages, but now it's no longer needed. Ubuntu is no longer the only distribution with that level of polish.

    • What is/was your distrohopping journey?

    Jump
    • In the 90's: Slackware, then RedHat, then Debian, then Progeny (Debian based), then shortly Mandrake (RedHat based)
    • Early 2000's: RedHat Japanese edition, TurboLinux (because I was in Japan and Japanese IME was almost impossible to get working on non-Japanese distributions)
    • Then I had fun with Gentoo looking at my terminal compiling stuff everyday and fixing broken package because I followed advices to activate crazy compilation flags
    • 2004: Ubuntu, that I used for nearly 20 years
    • Last year: switched to Fedora

    • Spacetop G1 is a $1900 laptop that uses a pair of Augmented Reality glasses as a display - Liliputing

    Jump

  • There is xreal, nreal, rokid... Plenty of manufacturers to pick with, and you can spare money for a regular laptop.
