That joke jitterbugged right past you.
- raw_anon_1111 11mo agoYou would be surprised how many people on HN will defend crappy products and servjce because of ideals - see Framework laptops, PinePhones etc.
- leakycap 11mo agoYeah, those products people are passionate about and really like are total junk. We should mock them while not explaining any of our reasoning, thank you for showing the way.
- raw_anon_1111 11mo agoI explain my reasoning on the Franework laptop for instance - they are bulky, shoddily made, loud, and poor battery life compared to even an M1 MacBook Air. From what I read, even for x86 laptops, they are for from the best and that’s a really low bar in 2025
- leakycap 11mo ago> Franework [sic] ... they are for from the best [sic] ... from what I read That's a lot of typos to just repeat someone else's first hand experience you read about. I guess I should have opinions on Airbus vs. Boeing, too -- mind you, I've never flown a plane, but you know, I've read some stuff online so I'm basically an expert.
- raw_anon_1111 11mo agoReally? While I don’t know anything about flying a plane, I do know when they say something weighs $x, how heavy $x is. I also know that if it has a fan that stays on constantly it’s going to be louder than a laptop that doesn’t have a fan or one that hardly ever comes on. I know that if they say the laptop last 3 hours on a battery compared to 13+ hours that 13 > 3. I learned that when I was 4 years old. I also know that if it’s an x86 laptop, that it is going to run hotter than my M2 MacBook Air. If I read the dimensions of the laptop and read the dimensions of my laptop, I can easily say it’s “bulky”.
