The post title says “ever” rather than “2025”. It’s cool for 2025 and we may get some interesting others, but many here will have ran it on something slower at some point.
Oh I feel you. Typing too much too fast is terrible on the wrists.
I remapped some keys for the key combos and have no issues with those now. Regardless of editor, good posture may help. I find good posture easier with split keyboards which often include a thumb cluster.
Perhaps multi-modal editing is better and you can do that with evil-mode. I’ve created some prefix key combinations with Alt-Gr and with the super (windows) keys to create something like it whilst keeping most most common commands close to the default. Namely C-x is now s-c which is way more relaxing on Dvorak layout.
Doom Emacs includes evil-mode by default perhaps that’s your cup of tea.
That would be Emacs.
Emacs is like an operating system bringing various tools into the same editing interface, including email. Emacs is very adaptive, you can get VIm like bindings through evil-mode.
We have a children bicycle with a belt drivetrain and it has been super smooth without maintenance so far. I have cycled one for adults too and it’s nice. A bit more quiet. There is also no oil so no oil stains either. I vaguely recall they had a hair more friction losses than a chain drive but you’d have to research to be sure.
I have a cheap power supply which can be limited in current and voltage and I’ve been able to revive many such batteries with it. I use it as a drip charger limiting current and voltage so neither gets too high until the regular charger picks up the battery again.
noisetorch does an ok job for video conferences and works on your speaker (easier on you) and on your microphone (easier on them). We often use it to limit keyboard noise during meetings.
I have not had many issues in the past 15 or more years myself running Linux exclusively aside from a shorter Macbook period. Perhaps I have just been lucky.
We sported (in guessed cronological order of first buy): Dell, HP, Lenovo, Slimbook, Tuxedo, Starlabs, BTO all running Linux at our company. We have not had big issues with any except for keyboard on a Dell, Tuxedo, Slimbook and cooling on a Lenovo. Since I chose the Slimbook many have followed on the path of smaller suppliers and I think we rarely buy from the big makes now.
I have been very happy with slimbook. I came from a macbook (bad idea) with the bad butterfly keyboard and the slimbook was a big upgrade on that front. It’s still not the greatest keyboard for some but I do like it. I have been wanting to buy a new one but whenever something broke or was insufficient I could either upgrade (2 x nvmeSSD slots and RAM can be replaced) or they still supplied spare parts when I sent them an email (keyboard replacement after 4 years). I wanted a framework but Slimbook has offered me spare parts as needed for longerbtham could buy a framework and the slimbook still works well. Plus it’s less expensive. Replacement of the keyboard was not toolless requiring glue to be heated but I did manage to quickly do it with a sleepy head at night. I’d buy their new 13" if this one would be out of service. I’d buy one now but it feels such a waste.
Things I did not like 6 years ago: webcam and microphone of lesser quality, display nice and matte with good color rendition but lower resolution than I’d prefer, no USBC charging on USBC port. Display and USBC are resolved on the new models, no clue about webcam and microphone.
Not CoreXY but you may want to check out FLSun’s delta offerings too.
I have an older one and it has served me well. I bought a QQS pro (I think) for tinkering. It worked well out of the box but I could not resist changing the stepper drivers, installing Klipper, changing the hotend, … It still works well, just faster.
Looking at the few reviews of what they have today I’d buy again but would try not to swap out parts. That or the Prusa you’re looking at.
When the battery gets fully discharged it degrades much faster.
I’d be searching for what’s draining the battery and in the meantime I’d add a battery disconnect switch for these periods.
Agree. They’ll surely to pay the cost and they have a proven track record on handling any potential lock in.
The Docker runtime is probably ok as it is a tool instead of a community. The registry has a community aspect and is where we’ll likely see exploitation of vendor lock in. Luckily Docker was grounded well and you can set up your own registry.
Answer: they’re holding up just fine
Parent post may have been a suggested correction rather than an accusation. Hard to gauge.
Check out termux so you can combine the native install with tools such as Git to have a fuller installation. org-roam seems to work. No native compilation but performance is still ok. Also turn on touch-screen-display-keyboard and touch-screen-precision-scroll.
I have since tried to browse Lemmy on it a few times. The lack of emitted light and terrible color rendition make it more boring. I guess that’s the point, a more boring device. Pictures are a problem due to dithering and bad color rendition.

Updated my comment to reflect this. Thanks for clearing out the confusion.
There is a standard connector which existed before big screens landed in cars, the OBD2 connector. Dongles are cheap and you can read the output from your phone or computer. Some dongles support bluetooth. The connector is mandated in some markets and I guess that makes it less interesting to add a redundant interface inside of the car. It’s fun to try if you’re interested. Manufacturers can extend the error codes IIRC.
Tesla has a service mode on the display through which you can scan the car for faults, run a battery test, … It is password protected but the password is publicly available.
This is a great overview. Some extra notes:
Linux will be sluggish running “live” off the usb stick. Do poke around but know it will be faster running from the laptop’s SSD.
For a way to install onto a USB stick, check Balena Etcher. I guess there are better tools out there but this worked for me every time I tried it, seems to work on windows too, and I found it intuitive.
We have a few Tuxedo computers and some other Linux brands at our company and are generally happy about them. Cheaper devices have a less than perfect keyboard (though I liked the one on the slimbook) a worse camera and microphone (though some are very ok).
I’m very happy with these Linux devices. The few makes for which we needed parts also supplied them but sending the device their way for repair took longer than we’d have wanted.
