Or the OG factorio

Where did you hear about a reputation for durability? I’m familiar with the phrase “if you can’t afford two BMWs you can’t afford one” because of how hard it is to maintain them

Yes please, I use my quest 2 sparingly but would love a to hit it with custom firmware

I’m going to add my +1 for framework, I got the batch 5 original framework 13 with pop os on it and a windows 10 copy on a 250gb expansion card. Its been my main work and play laptop and I enen replaced the main chassis after it got smashed (long story) involving the sidewalk. Anyway I love what framework is doing and the decision has arguably already paid off within these last two years.

I agree, it takes a lot of copium to believe that all of this “phasing out by 2050” shit itsnt straight pandering. Its like a smoker with lung cancer saying they’ll quit in a few years. We are hopelessly addicted to our lifestyles that depend on fossil fuels. The only one thats ultimately going to shift our society is mother nature when she eradicates us through famine, extreme weather and chaos

The point is if they do it for this there is no reason they wouldn’t do it to other forms of media. Youre either introducing a strawman argument or missing the point

Sacrificing privacy because you have nothing to hide is like saying you’re ok giving up free speech because you have nothing to say

Hmm, tracks. I will continue using nothing from them

Unfortunately I wish I could disagree with you, but I agree- its probably best to make the most of what we have while we have it

I think I’ll just upgrade to sailing the high seas rather than paying these clowns

I don’t know if youre being facetious or are genuinely unaware of how devastating this is on our natural and societal foundations. The further our climate slips away from the predictable seasons our agriculture was built upon, the increasingly likely our society as we know it runs the risk of abrupt collapse.

One of the best mind bending and heart wrenching video games I’ve played in a long time-Soma

Since they were purchased by epic games last year, roughly half of the original staff were laid off. Being bought by a corporate entity that values profitability over all esle is devastating to a website like this where music (and culture) have thrived

They’re not doing these jobs for fun. These are people that have themselves and their families to care for. Its possible to be mistreated at your job while also needing the income from your job

I suppose that depends on how urgently you need a new computer. I waited several weeks for one of the first releases, but have been using it the last two years and it has been well worth it. I accidentally smashed the case when it slipped out of my bag on concrete and was thankful I got a framework when I was just able to swap it with a new shell of their marketplace within a week

Regardless at the end of the day microsoft is a business. By that fact alone their decisions are dependent on what is best for the company. If and when this deviates from what is best for the consumers, we will learn to regret the acquisition

Where? I haven’t been able to find it

Who watches the watchmen?

I mean… While that sounds good I can’t imagine that would have any practical advantages when the front and back are still made out of delicate glass. You wouldn’t even be able to tell the difference from other types of metals at a glance

Damn thats some sobering real talk. I don’t know how to drive manual, and frankly you make a strong point about how little point there would be to try
