insanely hostile response to something like this. they attempted to have these parts replaceable, AMD physically couldn't do it. they've still made it as repairable as possible, and will without a doubt be more repairable than similar devices using this chipset. fucking relax, being reactionary without being informed is dumb.
Hmm good point. Honestly didn't think about that. In that case I'm surprised they're keeping the Bluesky account up, the replies are 90% negative there.
It is important to understand the context of a word. Many words and phrases have racist origins, including many words you likely use without knowing. Meanings change, and that's not a bad thing. If people hurt by the term pushed for it to stop being used, I would of course respect this. I have never seen who could be targeted with the term be offended by its usage in the Linux community.
Currently, the majority of people who talk about Linux customization call it "ricing", and none of them are doing it with ill intent. Look at the replies to your comment, most of them didn't even know this until you brought it up. What is the point in holding onto the negative history of a word that is no longer used in that way?
Cosmic is really great if you want tiling similar to Hyprland or Sway without so much work. I used i3 then Hyprland for years, but have now been using Cosmic for months. Its the only DE that correctly does a tiling workflow imo, even considering extensions.
The problems with preconfigured configs is that they often aren't very dynamic, as in they don't adapt well to other PCs. Many of them will use stuff like CSS for widgets and bars that have stuff like specific pixel sizes, meaning you'll often gave to make changes.
Another thing to remember is a lot of the stuff you take for granted in a DE don't exist in a WM. Things like autostarts, envvars, background services, etc don't work the same. Hyprland devs created UWSM which will help with all of this.
Btw, their Mastodon account has more followers than their Bluesky and Threads accounts combined, both of which they are keeping. What a stupid decision.
Nice, hope it helps. I was really surprised by how difficult it was to find out the cause of the issus, but maybe my search skills were just failing me. I'm glad the fix is so simple.
I am attaching a SATA power cable to the connector, I believe it should be able to provide that power. The same SATA power connector is capable of powering other drives. I'll look into that feature.
By similar devices I obviously mean ITX PCs with similar chipsets. The average PC isn't giving you 128GB of VRAM for $2k.
Local AI is a difficult thing to do right now, making a product to allow people to use AI without giving up their privacy is great.
