Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Decided on this:
Still had some issues under Linux / NixOS a couple of weeks ago (hardware-wise everything worked; but specific programs, esp. Librewolf, will randomly start eating CPU and battery out of nowhere, with what looks like noops. Haven't investigated further, yet.
wtf is going on with that touchpad - is it a tap calculator input?
sweet, glad to know it generally works with linux. this is available in my part of the world. been shopping around for a personal for-work laptop since my company is stingy. And I plan to move on anyways.
It generally works, yes, but I'd hold off for another month or two in the hopes of the issues being resolved in the kernel
I really wanted to like that laptop but the screen is so incredibly glossy that unless you're in a totally dark room it becomes a mirror.
I think it's a matter of preference. Haven't noticed the screen being a mirror yet, but then again I feel like any even mildly matte screen looks like it's being viewed through a veil...
I am a bit worried/curious about how the oled will deal with my very static waybars though, lol
