Man kann Merkel wirklich vieles vorwerfen, aber sie ist zumindest kein Faschist.

I don’t use google workspace. Is it normal that they call you about stuff? For me that would be the first red flag and I’d just not pick up.

The US is currently closer than ever before. Time will tell how far that is.

Yeah well, my Politics Policy says to not support fascists or people who openly praise fascists if I can help it. So there’s that.

what does the service has to do with politics?

They endorsed Trump on an official account and couldn’t be arsed to properly apologize.

Also ich wünsche Frau Liebich herzlichen Glückwunsch zum coming out.

I guess this is one of the few things where China and the US fully agree.

If they’d let their people freely talk it would be way harder to demonize the other side.

Hard disagree.

If one person’s rights negatively affect another persons rights you can’t just rule one right to be more important in every situation. There’s gotta be more nuance than that.

No, I don’t really have a use for an A5 printer.

I’m also not sure if a spacebar-sized touchpad would be all that great.

Edit: I checked back on this post out of curiosity. Some people really are a bit dramatic when it comes to touchpads.

Are they the best pointing device ever?: No. Will they cause your fingers to wither away and your hair to fall out?: also no.

Especially not one time for a firmware update.

I’m looking forward to the pro-level backpaddling we’ll be seeing the next months.

I already have a computer with USB-C - legacy connectors on peripherals force me to buy dongles.

That’s why I want my computer to have both.

It’s definitely not as good as it should’ve been, but as long as PC manufactures include as many standards as possible it should play well with whatever standard the peripherals are using.

Until it doesn’t.

Didn’t they have issues with previous MBPs where they’d charge slower on one side than on the other without apple acknowledging it?

But that aside Apple is pretty good ad supporting mostly everything. Other manufacturers are way worse in that regard.

But I already have peripheral devices with older connectors. This just forces me to buy dongles.

Also, USB-C can only “do it all” on paper. In practice you have multiple sockets on any given device that support different subsets of the standard. If you’re lucky, the capabilities are printed right on the device or in the manual. If you’re unlucky you’ll have to figure it out yourself.

I guess they could start saving money by not paying their CEO millions/year.

Sure, because normally police always publishes every little detail about an ongoing investigation as soon as they find out. (/s in case that’s not obvious)

Not everything has to be a conspiracy.

I can’t say anything about the article because I havent read it. But you clearly have an agenda.

From what I understand this wasn’t a decision dictated by sanctions nor was there any strongarming. Otherwise it would’ve happend way earlier.

I also think splitting politics and literally anything else doesn’t work and is something people who benefit from the discussion (or lack therof) made up.

The battery lasts about a mont in that laptop and gets worse quickly over time when not regularly charged.

I’m not sure if the short runtime is caused by the design-decision of using a rechargeable battery or a big power-draw from it.

For me this is also the first laptop that ever had an issue like that. Even my decade old thinkpad is still on its first CMOS battery.

It’s a coin-cell battery. Traditionally it was used to keep the memory that stores the bios-settings and the real-time-clock powered when the PC was turned off.

By now the bios settings are stored ona different kind of memory, so it doesn’t need power when turned off.

But the rtc still needs power when the laptop is off as well as other stuff (for example the circuitry that makes the power-button work)

In the framework it’s also rechargeable, so you can’t just swap it for a cheap one from the store once it runs out.

I have a 11th gen Intel Framework 13 running PopOS.

Everything is fine except the bug feature with the rechargeable CHMOS battery. On my model it only charges when the laptop is charging. (They changed that behavior in all later model afaik)

Since I use my laptop only sporadically I can’t just pick it up and use it right away because that battery is always empty. When it’s empty the power button doesn’t work even when the main battery is fully charged.
