I would say most of the customers of Framework are the kinds of people who espouse the kind of antifascist ideology that that guy that started the thread does.

I don’t think that the fascist sympathizer circle and the “willing to pay more money for an ethical laptop that isn’t beholden to a big corporation for repair” circles have much overlap.

This is easy, “Framework doesn’t support fascism or racism in any form. We support open source software and right to repair. Due to concerns with ideology in some of the projects we sponsor we are reviewing the projects we sponsor to make sure that they align with our values as a company.”

The fact that they aren’t willing to say so says plenty.

Oh yeah if AV1 is so great how come there isnt an AV tw…oh wait…

As a white person, I find this very amusing.

I had a rule where I wasnt allowed to use a gameshark until I had already beaten the story mode.

So I guess the analogy there would be learn how to do the thing the old fashioned way and then only use AI as a tool to do it better.

USB ssds seem to have a lot of weird issues being used for a nas drive. Sometimes its a power management thing on the SSD itself, sometimes its something odd with the USB controller on the host. Occasionally the power supply of the sff pc doesnt have enough amps for all of the peripherals. Using an intermediary like a usb hub makes all of these issues worse since you add another device with its own potential conflicts.

Not to say its not possible to do, but USB drives and NAS’s rarely play nice together.

Does anyone know if there are any plans to port this to raspberry pi?

Been there. Reason I didnt is because other people would bear the shit if I did. Im in a much better place at the moment but I felt exactly the way ypu do about the world.

There is a fuckload of propaganda, and a lot of it is meant to make you lose hope at ever seeing the system change. That makes the opinion that things can and might improve and you are going to be a part of it, no matter how small the most radical thing of all.

Genuinely what helped me through it was volunteering. Everything is shit wall to wall BUT this one tiny thing is better than it was because of me. Its a sustaining feeling for sure.

Keep hanging in there for the ones you love, and the ones that love you.

The main point is that the disk controller gets exponentially more complicated as capacity increases and that the problem isnt with space for the nand chips bit that the controller would be too power hungry or expensive to manufacture for disks bigger than around 4tb.

Relevant video about the problems with high capacity ssds.

The Amount of Ads you see won’t change, just their relevance to you.

Right. Just make a super super good compatibility layer so whatever you have next will be compatible and give up on Windows proper. They can call it Windows 360.

Honestly, it seems like it would be easier to contribute Dev time to WINE and just start all over with a new incompatible version of Windows.

I love that one too! Though my fave is Avianos. I’d love to see a UFO 50 more where they do some follow ups of some of these. Or open up modding or something.

In the song the Sk8r boy is the hero who triumphs in the end so i think it makes sense.

Connected a Samsung smart TV to my network when we first got it. The thing damn-near crashed my pi-hole asking for so many ad/tracking domains. Factory reset it later that same day. I think my % of requests blocked went from 15% to 68% in just the 3 hours or so the Smart TV was connected.

I also have had trouble during upgrades in the past.

I’ll have to disagree about the purple and orange theme though. I’m personally a big fan.

In the Beginning is an anime that follows the Christian old testament up through the birth of Jesus.

There’s also Superbook about 2 kids and a robot who time travel to bible times get involved in the biblical events.

Analogue is doing the lord’s work. Software is easy to copy infinite times but hardware isn’t prevalent or going to last forever.

I hope someday things like this will end up at a more commodity price

I switched to Delta Icons, also open source also on F-Droid. They aren’t as minimalist but they’re neat and flat and pastel.
