  • And luckily there are plenty of options out there for people who want to attach peripherals to their laptops. I’m just not one of them.

    My ideal device has two C ports on each side and a solid trackpad like the mac books do, just without all the apple bullshit of locking stuff down. @tuxedocomputers, pretty please 👀


  • Good to know Dell makes these. I am running CachyOS on the 2020 Intel MacBook Air and it’s okay… she runs a bit hot, so battery life is about half of what I would get with macOS.

    As much as I like the look of Apple hardware, I despise them locking everything down. I’m glad there are smart people out there, like the Asahi project, cracking those macs open.


  • I wish… unpopular opinion but I love Apple’s approach with the MBAir. I want a skinny device with 2-3 C Ports max.

    I’m done with USB A, on the rare occasion I need it I gladly use an adapter to improve portability the other 90% of the time. Any hardware made for Linux by non-US companies has several A ports, a few C, ethernet, HDMI, SD card… nope, I got a tower with all the ports. My portable should stay portable.




  • I’m with you there. Got an 8 Pro 2nd hand for this and sold on my iPhone 2nd hand as well. Graphene is looking into supplying their owm hardware, hope they make progress while so many consider the switch.

    I’m planing to do the same with my MacBook Air, got an M1 version that I will swap for the last Intel version. I can put Linux properly (Asahi for M1/2 is incredible but still limited) and the other person won’t give new money to Apple for their upgrade.







  • I guarantee you this is how several, if not most, fortune 500 companies currently operate. The 50k DOW is not just propped up by the circlejerk spending on imaginary RAM. There are bullshit reports being generated and presented every day.

    I patiently wait. There is a diligent bureaucrat sitting somewhere going through fiscal reports line by line. It won’t add up… receipts will be requested… bubble goes pop
