Framework makes it their point but also charges for it. Some big make laptops also allow to upgrade parts.
But lets not forget Linux specific laptops. They generally allow upgrading ram and storage. Slimbook even sold me a newer (but also new) keyboard when mine gave up after 5 years or so. Most parts seem to be available still.
Some brands to look for in this group are Tuxedo, bto, slimbook, starbook. Clevo might work too.
You could provide a (separate) email address for that and hope spam detection is good enough. You can use <a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=Direct mail message from PAGE">mail me</a> to have them open their mail client. It is wise to provide the address visually too and you might ask them to include something in the subject so you can filter out mailing list spam easily.

This was a really good suggestion. I enjoyed this a lot. Thank you.
jank is a general-purpose programming language which embraces the interactive, value-oriented nature of Clojure as well as the desire for native compilation and minimal runtimes. jank is strongly compatible with Clojure and considers itself a dialect of Clojure.
Looks like they wanted Clojure to have a smaller runtime.
We run Taiga and it seems to work fine.
If you want to link to external sources in a structured way and you don’t mind tweaking the looks, SolidOS (ot another SOLID app) has a task list/tracker.
I keep my personal tasks in org-mode or org-roam.
I own this. It is horrible. If the specs were real it would be great, but the specs are not real. It is a 3k black and white monitor with a fixed color filter over it. That means you need 3x3 pixels to resemble a color.
I consider it a scam from Dasung.
Boox on the other hand made a sane black and white display. Much better. I own a Max 2 Pro. Sadly they fail to understand that when you report a display as 20px smaller than it really is over an HDMI port and then rescale the image of the computer display on that, that it becomes really uncrisp. Their suggestion is to use the display with 200% scaling (so you don’t notice as much I suppose).
Epaper is really promising and nice. However both of these companies should either get some real competition or lawsuits.
Depends on the use.
The screen protector serves as a blue light filter too, it’s cheaper than a display, and fairly thin. That’s a straightforward addition for my use but if you don’t have issues with your phone dropping then you could certainly do without.
I very much dislike cases and loved the PH-1 for stating that a phone should be solid enough without a case (sadly it did not survive a 50cm drop on a floor so it did not hold up in practice). If you don’t have much issues with your phone dropping then not having a case makes it so much nicer.
I take more risk holding my phone than I should which means it falls more than average. The price I have to pay is a screen protector and cover. Replacing the display should be easy, but it’d also be wasteful.
I had to replace parts on my FP5. It fell on very bad asphalt at speed whilst cycling in a foreign country. The glass on the camera modules scattered. Display protector broke and the case got some good damage. I was instantly calmed realising it is a FairPhone and knowing I could order replacement parts.
Repairs were trivial and it feels good to have created just a tiny amount of e-waste instead of a large amount. The black aluminium case has some war wounds (scratches) reminding me of the trip.
There’s a bit more changing on the web than what you may expect.
The web moves so fast that we ditched W3C standards for the WHATWG living standard because it took too long to release new features. I guess the “move fast and break stuff” stood too much in contention with W3C’s vision of a standardisation track, and it did take a good while in the past. Anyhow, the last updatebto that stabdard was yesterday. https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/document-sequences.html
Features like WebRTC, HTTP/3, CSS grid, JavaScript decorators, … do not come for free. This is just a tiny fraction of what appeared in the past few years. The web is a highly evolving platform which (used to be? is? aims to be?) backwards compatible. This even ignores updates for required maintenance due to base platform APIs or frameworks changing.
It could be very smart to bring its evolution back under W3C so it would move at a more achievable pace with an equal voting process, but that’s not the case today and I doubt it will happen any time soon.
In the coming years, building or maintaining a browser engine will be expensive.
noisetorch does an ok job for video conferences and works on your speaker (easier on you) and on your microphone (easier on them). We often use it to limit keyboard noise during meetings.
When the battery gets fully discharged it degrades much faster.
I’d be searching for what’s draining the battery and in the meantime I’d add a battery disconnect switch for these periods.
Agree. They’ll surely to pay the cost and they have a proven track record on handling any potential lock in.
The Docker runtime is probably ok as it is a tool instead of a community. The registry has a community aspect and is where we’ll likely see exploitation of vendor lock in. Luckily Docker was grounded well and you can set up your own registry.
I have since tried to browse Lemmy on it a few times. The lack of emitted light and terrible color rendition make it more boring. I guess that’s the point, a more boring device. Pictures are a problem due to dithering and bad color rendition.

Updated my comment to reflect this. Thanks for clearing out the confusion.
There is a standard connector which existed before big screens landed in cars, the OBD2 connector. Dongles are cheap and you can read the output from your phone or computer. Some dongles support bluetooth. The connector is mandated in some markets and I guess that makes it less interesting to add a redundant interface inside of the car. It’s fun to try if you’re interested. Manufacturers can extend the error codes IIRC.
Tesla has a service mode on the display through which you can scan the car for faults, run a battery test, … It is password protected but the password is publicly available.
FP5 using e/OS here showing the same artifacts.
I did not touch Windows during or after my CS degree. No clue what people are on about needing Windows. It was a challenge on my first job where they preferred us to use VMs instead (I did not and it became the norm because it is better).
Graduated in Europe. We had a bunch going through the same. Campus computers were running Linux too. You need someone to champion it in the year and others will join.
