That looks far too polished with locked in specs for them to not have any prototype. I’d trust companies that have actually made a product that has a janky Linux implementation that’s improving, than one that doesn’t exist yet relying on crowdfunding.

Carbon monoxide, not dioxide.

When it works it’s fantastic. I was entirely unable to use kde under xorg on my laptop, but with Wayland it’s quite usable.

I’ve also experienced kde-Wayland with an Nvidia gpu on a much more powerful desktop and I could barely log in, the mouse would move every 5 seconds or so. I did manage to find a distro with properly updated drivers as I knew it was coming down the line, but holy crap did I get to understand why Nvidia gets the hate.

Yeah, that’s a weak ass sandwich

No, they have a degree on Facebook. Not from Facebook.

And in the case of a microwave, it makes almost no difference if you’re running longer than 30s

Jostens is cancer

Man I stopped watching during season 5(?), whatever the Miami vice season was. maybe I should give it a try again.

Collabora isn’t libreoffice, they contribute to the development of libreoffice, but they are a separate entity. As far as I’ve seen, collabora works more toward collaboration on documents and online stuff rather than the function of the office suite…While also being the largest contributor to libreoffice.

It’s not really worth anyone’s time to argue about the difference, though. I already feel like I’m making the GNU/Linux stallman statement.

You’re comparing a laptop at idle to the power supply for a pi that needs to power it at full load plus overhead and inefficiencies. That’s like comparing apples to an orange tree.

There’s a little bit of a difference in the police response to protests between the two

I come home and just turn on my laptop and look at it when I get home from work. Just to remind me that there’s better things in the world.

Yeah, but the crux of it would probably lie in the fact that they’ve never had money to manage. From what I’ve seen, everyone mismanages their money. If we had basic income, I would guess 90%+ would eventually get their shit together. 10 people needing food because they can’t manage money is better than 100 people needing food because they don’t have money.

Pretty sure they meant the package, proper bubble wrapping would handle the abuse. That’s on the person boxing it all up.

FedEx lost a $500k case of equipment for the service techs who maintain the instruments we use at work. They work nationwide and have two of these cases for the entire country, they keep thousands of labs running. FedEx just… lost it. Eventually it was found a few weeks later or something. The cost is not really a big deal, it is basically just instrument components they use to verify the running components, but they’re the components that all instruments are compared to, so they can’t just put together another case as it suits them. There’s extra testing that goes in to make sure these components are exactly to spec.
