blowing my mind, i think this thing might make a good smartphone replacer

Assume you mean the 13, I've had mine for a few months and love it too. Also really dig the refinements they've done with the 12 like the pogo pins and even more easily replaceable display

It is. On their YouTube channel there's a very interesting Q&A on their event earlier this year, here: https://youtu.be/os_fHy1mB_M There was a question specifically about making a smartphone. They explained it was very unlikely they'd ever do that and explained their reasoning behind it, so I'd highly recommend watching the video of you're interested in how they think.

And a printer too.

Bout to nut

You can't stop me from dreaming!

I got a Framework 16 a few months ago and I've been loving it. Super happy these guys managed to make this concept of a repairable laptop work. Though, one thing I wish is for them to make a storage case for the expansion cards. I've built up a little collection of them and obviously filled up all 6 slots pretty quickly. I'd like a better place to put the unused cards than in a random drawer.

I just want an electric car that can do exactly this.

Modular components on an option of 3 frames. Reparable to a degree. Bare bones functionality. Physical buttons, no screens. Open source software. Upgrade not the whole car, but components as you go. Literally what video games taught us.

If I had Mark Cuban money, it's the first thing I would do.

I would look at Fair phone. I imported one to the US and I love it.

I've thought about it, but in really holding out for a proper Linux phone, but we'll see.

This is a fantastic idea. If anyone ever does this then you should ask them for a cut of the profits

Sounds a bit like the Slate truck to me.

Yeah, has that gotten off the ground yet? Or is it still just investor stage pipe dream?

I thought it was further along that a pipe dream with the demos and videos I've seen. I think I'm cautiously optimistic until it officially comes out and I see reviews.

It has the modularity I like at a reasonable price.. We'll have to see if it can deliver.

Now that’s a username I can trust.

Hot damn that looks amazing, will get one for my kid.

The closest thing to that that currently exists would probably be fairphone with /e/os

No thank you

I plan to put postmarketos on this bad boy once I know the 5g will work. Cellular reception will be crucial more than anything for Linux phones to succeed.
