Framework is a US company and nobody wants to pay a premium to advance fascism thank you very much.

Thinkpads are a safe choice. I have the same use case as OP and i use one. Battery last 7-8h of light use, plenty for a plugless day’s work.

Thinkpad x1 carbon gen 6, or if you’re willing to up your budget a bit, a x13 is also a great fit.

lol

My disappointment is immesurable and my day is ruined.

People aren’t made that way, but competion incentivizes that.

Why oh why would people be against the very institutions where such behaviours are reinforced?

I mean, considering how many bluescreens Windows is giving these days, you’ll probably have a more stable experience in Arch lol.

OpenSUSE tumbleweed: Up-to-date, unbreakable due to Btrfs+snapper, very secure defaults (firewall), based in Germany. It works perfectly on my Thinkpad, so I couldn’t ask for better.

Do you trust them? The Curve sub is full of people complaining about fraudulent transactions. Kinda makes me afraid of unlocking my card lol.

What do you even need those graphics cards for?

Even the best games don’t require those and if they did, I wouldn’t be interested in them, especially if it’s an online game.

Probably only a couple people would be playing said game with me.

I wantnto say thst i really really like the way SailfishOS looks, those gnome icons are unmatched in phones.

I just don’t think Sailfish OS is ready for daily use at all. Like, it needs a few more years in the oven before it can be even considered for mass consumption. These small companies unfortunately need to play it safe.

Yes Android is US-based but it’s also open-source. Doesn’t mean that fact can’t change of course, but I don’t see better EU alternatives ATM.

cant swap the battery without a screwdriver anymore

The horror. Imagine using any other phone where you can’t take the battery out at all (at least until 2027 when all phones will be forced to have removable batteries).

I think Fairphone has bigger contentions to deal with than having to use a screwdriver.

Indeed.

This phone is so niche that the only OS that it only makes sense to work in being compatible with GrapheneOS, the crème de la crème of custom OSes.

I’d just ship from Pixel immediately if Fairphone ups their game to the point GrapheneOS wants to work with them.

Lmao in hindsight I probably didn’t read the graph correctly. Apparently more people want on desktop. I was looking at the dovosoon by country.

Still, are people watching porn in cafes? Or worse, are they masturbating in public? Hmm…

Well, I’m confused as well. Like, I never ever watched porn on my phone. Only on desktop. But apparently I’m a 6% minority.

Install an update and it’s borked? No worries

OpenSUSE also does this.

New PC and you want everything set up just like your old one?

Install scripts? Of course the individual apps definitions still need to be set up again, but I’d imagine it’s the same for Nix?

Is your hardware always the exact same? Because if it isn’t, then I’m sure you have to do modifications to your config file. And at that point you night as well just use a regular distro instead.

We know what the internet would have been without Google and other corporations closing it down because some of us lived it.

It was mostly decentralised niche forums that you had to know the links for, and you’d receive random emails telling you to visit this or that new site. People would also share links around school.

Sure, there was a chance you’d get Chlamydia if you opened the wrong link, but it was exciting and overall the experience was wholesome.

The Fifteen Million Merits episode of Black Mirror was supposed to be a warming.

But instead it seems corporations used it as a guide, and people just accepted having ads bombarded into their skulls in exchange for content, instead of getting enraged by it.

That guy is a jackass. Probably an American upset that he’s a minority on Lemmy. Don’t mind him.
