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?

I have a bike I put together with this mindset and it's pretty awesome. If any component dies I can replace it individually, even if it's not made by the same company. No reason an electric car couldn't have the same benefits except that the average consumer doesn't care about planning ahead

I literally asked, you implied.

I would guess he’s thinking money. Design, production line, and legal are all going to be extremely expensive. Bezos is a name and face but if you replace his name with JP Morgan Chase, BNY Mellon , Blackrock, etc is there really that big of a difference. The large financial institutions have done far more for far longer to people all around the world

Yes and no. There's a YT video of some guy fixing anything on any car. The catch is that for components for easy things are getting harder and harder to reach. I always used to change my oil myself because it takes 20 minutes and I know the filter got replaced. Harder and harder to do every car I have. So even basic maintenance I can't do myself anymore.

Modular components could be workable in terms of you pick frame 1, 2, or 3 with batteries. Then you pick wheels/motors packs A, B, or C. Then you pick more and more options. If you own the A and C options, it's a 45 minute swap out with a system that confirms things are plugged in right. Not every configuration would work together. Toyota uses a lot of interchangeable parts between cars. I mean do this with a whole back end or front end. So like 5 swappable zones that work in maybe 15 possible configurations per frame.

Maybe you want a battle wagon. And want to grow out of that to a pickup. Or start with compact car and expand to a compact SUV.

While this is, as you pointed out, not entirely inaccurate, I appreciate the small writeup, as I would plan to run Fedora or other similar distro on it and like to know it's flawless in this regard.

Same with my 2017 Thinkpad.

If they release one with a TrackPoint and mouse buttons, I'll upgrade early.

Makes me sad that I know exactly what you mean, this new glass shit has me nervously eying the Linux door.
