It's true. Good? Nope. This thing will burn giant piles of cash in repairs, and that's not even considering battery replacement, which completely obviates the entire point of this thing.

It really is astounding how bad national brands are. Everything loaded with sugar and salt. Lowest quality ingredients in everything, and I do mean everything. I bought a package of national brand slice turkey. Threw it right away. It was d

Exactly this. I own the Framework desktop board. I knew all of its limitations before I bought it, and it's ok to play with on a hobby level, but it isn't much more than a Radio Shack toy. That memory bandwidth is painful. It&#x27

Solo developer just means they developed the game themselves, not made it all themselves. I'm not sure how you could write what you wrote without that occurring to you.

I moved across states a few years ago. In the old neighborhood, people would be drunk and lighting that crap off for hours and hours. Completely moronic and thoughtless. Here, it is illegal. First offense is a fine, second offense is jail.

Nope. Genuinely made my new Mac Mini feel broken. The only fix was going back to Sequoia.

The same Europe where people who criticize the rapist of their child does more time for causing offense than the rapist did for the actual rape? THAT Europe?

OP was not successful because they didn't want to fix the problems he discussed. I have been in the same exact situation, and no level of communication skills would have been successful in changing their minds.

Running Windows in outer space takes some pretty big balls. Gives me a cold sweat just thinking about it.

Yeah. I have one. People buying the Framework Desktop mainboard aren't buying it just for gaming. There are better and far cheaper options for gaming. What this does is everything, though. Good enough for 1440p gaming. 16c/32t pow

That PCI slot has low power output, not suitable for what people would plug into it. Easier to cover it than run into support problems. It won't run a GPU directly. It will run an Oculink card which will allow use of an egpu.

Or the mountain of returns they have to deal with on a daily basis. I signed up for Xmas, bought some things. ALL of them returned. This isn't a counterfeit issue on my end, but the simple fact that everything they sell is garbage.

No one sells $4 lunch bowls in the US because no one wants to work for minimum wage for 12 hours a day. The article makes it seem like a great idea, but people in Japan who run these stores work like dogs and live in poverty for their whole

80 billion spent buying game studios with essentially nothing to show for it. Pretty amazing to think that money holds 0 value to these people.

Yes, it works. The state that I used to reside in has draconian DUI/Traffic laws, and not coincidentally low traffic death rates. Driving with license revoked or suspended was a serious charge and resulted in impound of vehicle and man

Sales drove off a cliff. The larger problem is that Ford has lost multiples of tens of billions trying to do EV's.

I have to laugh at the absurdity of a German company evaluating quality and reliability of vehicles.

Perhaps not, but Linux desktop marketshare doubled in 2024. It is still minuscule, but it doesn't take much for a movement like this to take off. Microsoft continues to make Windows 11 impossible to install for the average user up to a

The same thing we are doing now: nothing. The poor already aren't customers, and what remains of the middle class is already being priced out of basic necessities. Have no fear, they are gunning for the upper class, now. A quick glance

I haven't tested the power draw, but I have the mainboard from Framework that I put into a larger ITX case for better cooling. My main PC is a 7950X3D which has the same core count/threads as the Strix unit, and the Strix benches

I have one. Framework Desktop mainboard that I put into a larger ITX chassis and regular power supply. It's fine for 1440p gaming. I don't use it for that, but it would not be a bother if that was all I had.

That's all there is to it. All these scum know they are buying stolen items, but they do it anyway. Same thing for catalytic converters and copper stolen from just about anywhere. Drop long prison sentences and massive fines on these p

Trained cashier? The local Lowe's and HD have little old ladies running the checkouts. They can't even lift most of the things I am buying, and have to scan them myself. Supermarkets usually have old slow people running them. The

One foolish decision after another. Believing that the loans would be hand waived away was peak naivety. And now, 2/3 of them are not even bothering to pay the loans. Good luck getting an apartment, house, car, or a top job with bad cr

I was going to manufacture a line of useful products here in the USA, but decided against it. I'd release the product, then a month later counterfeits would be on Amazon for 10% of the price. As a small operation, there are 0 affordabl

Aluminum frame with fiberglass panels. I put a cellular GPS tracker in the one I rented and it worked fine.
