Different weeds have different strategies. There is one that specializes in wildfires (cheatgrass): it has a large root system and burns very easily, so it "awaits" to be burned: no one but their root system survives the fire, so

This is my plan: Laptop: Framework laptop, if they start to sell it in the EU. Phone: Currently an ASUS one (one of the very few, thats not made in Shenzen), but I'll switch to a Fairphone if it dies.

It is. If it would be totally banned it would result in an emergence of a black market. We have the same thing on Hungary, there is one state controlled gambling company that's under heavy regulation (18+ only, full with warning signs

Its great, but I really don't understand why they cannot ship outside like 2 countries (?). Its always such a let down to see a company in 2021 that doesn't offer worldwide shipping, and sells its products just in the usual 2-3 co

The silly thing is that Apple advertises their phone as something cyber security focused, when it can be totally pwned in so many ways. And you don't need Apple's resources to make something better, just a more secure phone would

do not get a boox. First they do not publish their kernel source violating GPL, second the device constantly phones home to China and third the color display is really clunky: low contrast, washed out colors and very low DPI (around 160). W

IKEA frame, IKEA Matrand mattress (around $250 for a 200cm^2 size), IKEA pillows. The whole setup is like $500 and perfectly fine for us. I dont really get the obsession in the US with those >$1000 mattresses. I think the whole thing is

hmm I don't know how this one works, but I'd be very wary of devices that are not equipped by a sensor thats bulging out of the device or one with a fan moving the air into the sensor.

People are not some static thing (e.g. "well-adjusted"), but change constantly. And todays external influences push everyone to this outrage culture, even if they come from environment where this culture did not exist.

Look at waveshare's website. Get one with a HAT if the description says it needed, and always check out the refresh rate, it varies wildly (from ~0.5 secs to 15+ secs) I think they are Waveshare's supplier, you might even get chea

This looks great! Except that the sizes are not my favourite... a 6" one and a 9.7" one.. I think the ideal size for a small tablet/ebook reader is 8". Also I dislike the huge bezels of the devices, I wonder if it would

It seems I'm the minority here, but I dont like OctoPrint. My main issues: - Terribly slow startup and load times. - no support for mobile devices just with some app. - While it can do lots of things with plugins they tend to kill perf

I think they are on a release train, AKA they will make a major release every X weeks if there is anything to ship. I guess they are either starved of resources (see recent layoffs) of are working on something big

I really like the concept, congrats on making it a product! For me I have 3 concerns: 1. I'd never use a 13" laptop it's too small for work for me. Any chance of a 15" version? It'd be also cool if it could be used
