  • Your point is valid, if not well presented ; doesn't deserve the downvotes imho!

    Making public transit free instead of making it better, and then use the fact that nobody uses it anyway to demantle it further, is a bad thing. I think Not Just Bikes touched on that in one of its videos.

    But it's not always the case that free = bad. If it's already efficient and continues to improve, it can accelerate the growth of public transit. Luxembourg city is one example I know where it seems to be working, and a "good faith" effort.

  • Thanks for the advice! The 16 is probably as overkill as you say, but I've come to prefer a larger machine to work on.

    I already have Proxmox installed on a secondhand mini-pc (one of those NUC / thin-client like office machines) and it's been a great way to (re)learn a few things indeed!

  • Thanks for the heads-up. I've seen that the first gen had a few issues, I understand your frustration. I even saw a solution involving soldering a wire onto the motherboard? My hope is that they got better as they gained experience, and that hardware support on Linux will only imrove with time.

  • Yeah the proposition of Framework is what draws me to it. Price-wise it's more expensive than any other alternative, but it's still quite unique, and it ticks a lot of boxes that other don't (open-source firmware keyboard on a laptop ? whaaaaa) Your dual boot setup is interesting! How did you manage to get this setup? Is it just a matter of installing windows on the external storage and selecting it as priority when booting? It would be nice to have the option.

  • I'm in Europe, so System76 can quickly become expensive here, with shipping, taxes, duties, etc. Tuxedo would be the alternative (I think they use the same OEM, Clevo, anyway). Thanks for the rec though!

    Help with laptop buying decision

  • I'm on the verge of buying an ergodox from falbatech as well! How are you enjoying yours so far? Which case did you buy? I'm a bit overwhelmed with the possibilities there :D (bamboo case with acrylic back and steel plate, or full bamboo with integrated plate? what to do, what to do?)
