Intriguing, care to say more?

Edit: Disregard. I have the 13, not the 12.

~~Normal laptop formfactor. You can have a touch screen as an option but it doesn't do the full 360 fold round into a tablet.

I own one and the hinge goes 180.

It's an excellent laptop, I grabbed one when the first AMD board was available and it runs Fedora flawlessly and has windows on an SSD when I need it.~~

That's batteries of the past. The rate of change in batteries has been so dramatic it has left people's understanding behind.

Batteries will far outlive when a ICE car would have been scrapped.

I see 80s 90s era cars and trucks running around my town all day every day.

Try again.

my hands are not agile enough to accurately use a 5 or 6 inch touchscreen

when i use a phone one handed, i am struggling through about a 35% mis-input rate and then the general unresponsiveness of Android on top of that

Averages are much better than edge cases in this sort of comparison.

20 years vs 14

EV Batteries Can Easily Outlast A Typical Gas Car’s Lifespan: Study

The average car in America is 14 years old. EV batteries can last longer, according to a new study.

I think that has more to do with safety laws and emission standards than anything else. How can you properly crash test a fully modular car?

I'd love it if cars were more repairable, but modular would be a really tough design problem.

Heck, you NEED a screen in the US on any car due to backup cameras being mandatory. If you need a screen, I can see why companies would just use it for the infotainment system.

Hey, my client doesn't show that your comment contains anything, I think you're missing the exclamation mark before the link.

Yeah seems like lots of good opportunities for old boards of a smaller form factor with diy projects etc

What's the best way to order a print if you dont have a printer yourself? Is there a site you can order from?

You're right, nothing compares to one man's anecdotal evidence.

My right? Indeed.

There are services online. I don't use any of them, so I'm not comfortable making recommendations.

That being said, printers are getting cheap and really easy to use, so it may be worth looking into buying one for 200 bucks. Even without knowing how to model, there's a ton of free designs out there.

When AMD???

If all you're doing is texting, browsing the web, and making phone calls obviously specs don't matter, but to suggest that they don't matter at all is weird. After all specs includes the battery.

Obviously anything that needs higher end hardware is going to be adversely limited by the lack of that higher end hardware. It's a bit like asking how the lack of wheels affects a car. Obviously it affects it a lot.

With printers the thing that tends to go is the software. You wouldn't think that was possible but it happens, somehow they just stop working for no reason at all.

But of course you could always just buy a brother printer and be done with it.

I was a kid in high school just around the time that laptops were becoming available to the general public, somehow my parents actually managed to convince the school to buy me one. The one I had you could use to beat people to death, I certainly use mine as a weapon. We need to go back to that, I'm not interested in having an ultra thin laptop, I want a huge chunk of metal and plastic that I can use for self-defense.

I have been wanting one since these were released. My old Asus laptop from 2016 is still kicking, so I guess I'll wait till it craps the bed.

Dont they run x86_64?

So you coukd use qubes, if they gave a chip with the hot virtualization features?
