Does System76 have right now, or upcoming, any laptops that can match Apple’s hardware quality? They seem like Clevo rebrands.
They have been working on a fully in-house open source laptop for some time but I don’t know the ETA on it.
As far as I know, all the so called Linux laptops are rebranded white label products from China
Starlabs is not AFAIK, same with PINE
Starlabs laptops are great. I can’t wait to see a review of thestarfighters laptop!
I hear the battery life is poor but not sure.
I get ~8 hours on my starbook MkVI, with Bluetooth disabled.
apple’s hardware quality
I laughed. Cheaply made Chinese builds sold at a huge markup to make it look good to rich idiots doesn’t mean quality.
I’m sorry, but I absolutely cannot understand this. Have you held a modern macbook, like a macbook m2 air, in your hands?
I don’t like their software a lot, but the hardware is top of the industry in almost every way after they released their own CPUs. For what you get, they are cheap.
Before Apple Silicon they were more meh, though.
Really loving the new changes! Can’t wait to see try the alpha out
Will Debian users be able to use Cosmic’s tiling manager?
Eventually, yes. It may be faster available if you contribute on maintaining the packages, though.
How do I do that?
I’m relatively new to linux but I have some experience with Java and Python
Should be straight forward. If you willing to do all the work, the Debian community should be very welcoming
Gonna be off topic but how the fuck is fedi getting more traction on this over reddit.
I guess all Foss degens are banned there too haha
the foss people are probably the people who migrated to the fedi first
i tried recently compiling the epoch build on machine, but it didn’t start. maybe because of my nvidia card. nevertheless i’ll be installing this as soon as it hits the arch repos!
Yeah I had trouble building it on Arch. Something went wrong with a particular dependency, but I forget which. I’ll give it another try soon, since I’m incredibly eager to experience the newer changes.
