This just proves that US tariff policies are unstable.
Why would any company move production to US based on tariff then? Imagine spending money to move a factory from China to America, and the next month tariffs flip flop and your competitor laughs at you all the way to the back counting earnings from their Chinese imports.
It will be first ever orbital launch from European soil, and first ever orbital launch for the company. I think non reusable is good enough for now.
I must say I am impressed with Organic maps already. OsmAnd, and Google maps for that matter, are much slower.
One year ago I treated how long it takes to get Gimp to install on various distros in distrobox:
Results:
zypper@Tumbleweed: 3 minutes, 22 seconds
apt@Ubuntu 22.04: 1 minute 26 seconds
dnf@Fedora: 1 minute 2 seconds
pacman@arch: 0 minutes 21 seconds
But that’s just installation speed. It simply shows that there are quite big differences depending on use case.
They are very difficult to break. Even if there is a problematic update that would normalny kill your install you can just roll back too the previous working version.
Great for systems that you need to ‘simply work’.
Consider OpenSuse Aeon if you want to dip into immutable systems.
I’ll parrot the others. I have a Windows PC issued by my employer. The only way to have some Linux is WSL. I use it to sync notes with server at home, python stuff, and w3m when I want to Google something without looking conspicuous in the office.
General Linux tools also help. I needed to make video half the speed - one liner ffmpeg solves it in a jiffy. On Windows I need to install some hive software.
Loaded fine here

If the goal is to have the most up to date bleeding edge software, but have it on a critical machine, consider immutable distro like Fedora Silverblue or OpenSuse Aeon. Especially the latter will be just days behind Arch, and if an update breaks something you just roll back and try updating again in a week.
I used Silverblue as my main work system and this saved me a few times.
There is a free tier with limitation that your designs are open for others to see. Not ideal, but perfectly fine for tinkering.
If you have a choice - use Onshape. Fully featured CAD system, on par with SolidWorks and such, works perfectly on Linux out of the box.
I ordered one. First units should be shipped early December. Right now they seem to be some out - just few days ago you could order with 7-8 weeks delivery, now it’s just ‘notify when available’.
Wanted to buy framework laptop for the longest time, but they dont ship to Norway :(
Yes, finally something better than 1080p!
No pen. I used to have one with Surface Pro but in the end I never used it.
Plus if I decide I really need it the StarLite uses this open standard meaning you can use whichever pen later.
Per latest updates people should start getting their hands on first units early December. I have pre-ordered mine almost 3 months ago now and can’t wait!
The problem with older machines is the web browsing, not the system itself. You could use a browser with Java script disabled but a lot of websites will refuse to work.
You have to sacrifice with browser functionality to improve performance.
I think the biggest benefit is for people that cannot code or are just learning. Before a python script to do X or Y was a real problem. Now it is easy.
Plus it may help with Linux adoption - LLM can describe few commands in terminal plus some text config easily, but will struggle with Windows-like graphical configuration.
Windows will not allow me to attach a file to an email because it is opened in Word 🤷
