The Framework (repairable, upgradable) laptop getting a 10/10 repairability score from iFixit is a great endorsement for the team who worked on the product.

@Corben78 @boilingsteam "The team is working on supporting more APIs and enabling more games by default. Our goal is for every game to work by the time we ship Steam Deck. We are constantly working on Proton and there is a lot of work that's been done that doesn't yet effect the public version of Proton, including testing thousands of games, engaging with third-parties like anti-cheat providers, work targeting game compatibility, and more," -- Valve software developer Eric Lieberman .

@boilingsteam no. They said that was the *goal*

@Seferi I did install LineageOS on one a while back, but I just don't have a use for it.

@piggo Yeah, I have a Nexus 7. It's oh so slow.

I bought a 1st generation ipad in 2010. It's almost completely unusable as anything other than a clock. Can't sell it because I stupidly got it engraved with my name and phone number 🤦. Can't sign into games, lots of things won't install or update. Netflix still works tho 🤷

Weird coincidence that I noticed the graphics stack went weird (couldn't launch new GL apps) after 33 days and ~5 hours, twice. I had to reboot to get everything working. Is there something about that duration that makes #Linux / KDE / Ubuntu systems go wobbly? Very strange.

Interesting video review of the "JingPad A1" which is (their words) "The worlds first consumer level Linux tablet". Worth a look. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rq6TE2nZz3M

When I'm on a Zoom call, and every single participant has a mono microphone, I still put my headphones on the "right" way round. This is despite the cable crossing me to get to its destination socket. I should stop this. One day it might be nice if everyone is "panned" left/right

Wife has been playing this word game for a couple of years now. I just noticed the level number: 15234. I don't think I have ever reached levels above fifteen thousand in any game, ever.

@Sleepbag 🤦🏻

@rik Pentium II class of CPU. https://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:560Z

@RyuKurisu I like to keep these old ones in somewhat original condition

@Sleepbag I don't use "GNU + Linux" on *any* of my computers.

@ted the house has already had this sign on it for a year.. (a result of this stupid thread .. https://twitter.com/popey/status/1249011290896576519 )

Then there's the compact couple, 560Z and X40. They're just adorable for their compressed computing capabilities! 🥰
