Don't cherrypick a single issue raised by the OP to pretend the whole discussion is about that, please

No problem! And it doesn't remove from your point about cars making us behave differently
Altis made a very informative video about the whole thing

Tbf I don't know much about the Hyprland history. The point raised by the OP on the forum links to tweets by both framework and Hyprland accounts saying framework became a "gold tier sponsor" of hyprland. It's fair to assume that involves a donation.

Is that an autistic trait? (honest question). I get irrationally frustrated when someone tries to have a conversation before I had some downtime / too soon after I wake up. I've never understood why I get so upset about it

Maybe you're aware and it doesn't fit your need, but in case not: there's a snipping to ocr tool provided with PowerToys. Win+shift+T and select a zone, il ocr it and puts it in your clipboard. Good stuff. There's also NormCap that does the same : https://dynobo.github.io/normcap/

Public transport use soars in Montpellier a year after becoming free
Reply in thread
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.

Valve says it isn't subsidizing the Steam Machine's $1050 price because of its "religious" refusal to "build a more closed system"

I see it more as warriness than hatred. Whether or not they act "good" now, they have a near monopoly. It has a lot of potential to go bad for us consumers, even if the probability might be low. Murphy's law apply: if it can go wrong it will, someday.

Optional is my favorite example to give, at this point most people have internalized how to use its map function and how it works

With the new tram system in Liège, lots of car lanes were replaced with grassy tram tracks

I live in Charleroi and agree with the sentiment :D it's not the same vibe as Liege though, might be even worse...

Not sure if they are a large part of framework's consumers, or just very vocal in that thread.

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!

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!

Oh you have multiple!
Did you find there is a noise-level difference between the with/without steel backplates versions? Any recommandation / word of advise regarding falbatech's options ?
I currently use a TKL, and I do need the function keys relatively available (on a different layer is fine as long as I don't have to hold a modifier for it, but can toggle). I'm pretty set on the ergodox frankly, just not sure on the specifics. Not sure I'd want less keys than what it offers, and any key without an immediate function, I can find an IDE shortcut to use it for :D

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?)
