For the German keyboard layout FW decided to keep the English name ctrl on the left, which would be fine, if they hadn't translated the right ctrl key....

We had a TV report about a photographer who actually transfered big files with via horse because the transfer over the internet was slower than a calm ride. (Germany - 2021) link for Germans

You mean games that arent available in steam at all, vor those which you haven't bought there? I found the easiest workaround for me was to simply add the games to my steam library and to launch it from there. Then I don't have to worry about what proton version I should use or whatnot.

Absolutely not. Came not even close to 16GB usage (yet) But I thought that it would be nice to have, and that the prices wouldn't go lower anytime soon, so I thought I might as well take the 32Gigs

Last Wednesday, the parcel arrived, one day prior to the expected delivery date. I wanted to show my girlfriend how to expand memory and storage on a computer, so we did the whole process together. Despite being one of the less tech-savvy people I know, she assembled it with minor assistance from me in about 10 minutes. And it was ready to be powered on. The laptop took about one horribly long minute to initialize the 32GB of RAM during the first boot but now it boots in around 15 seconds.

I went against Framework's recommendation and installed EndeavourOS, a distro I'm familiar with and love. After disabling secure boot, I installed it without any issues, and the experience has been seamless to this day. One important tip I want to share is that you need to specify your region to access the 5GHz WiFi bands, as described here. So no worries if you like arch, there shouldn't be any problems!

Before receiving my unit, I had concerns about the battery's ability to last through my long university days, and I considered purchasing the larger 60Wh battery. I've read somewhere that some Linux installations drain the battery more than Windows, especially during sleep mode. Although, I can't speak for Windows, I have not had any problems with idle drain whatsoever. -Even without the official support of my distro.

Imho the battery life is insane! Last Thursday, I started with 85% and the laptop lasted around 10h before I plugged it in at 6%. Admittedly, I took some breaks, but I estimate the SOT on that day to be around 8-9 hours. Truly impressive!

My specs: AMD 7640 | 32GB Kingston Fury 5600MT/s CL40 | 1TB Lexar NM790 SSD

I can also recommend Libretube or Clipious for Android

Geil! Das wäre mein Traumsetup

That would be possible but IMO it would be better to sell that fairly new mainboard. I would use an older machine you have laying around or a Raspberry Pi for that, as you probably don't need the computing power of the FW for it.

Tbh, I had to block the adblock message with unlock. What's your filter list?

I think it is useful when you don't have an OLED screen. Else you can just have an AOD

They need something to become sustainable. They've been making losses for years. But thata definetly not the way. Other ways would be to lock some future features behind paywalls, and / or to increase their cut of the sales price per unit sold in the future.
