But conservatives are terrified of their neighbors, for some reason. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Can’t blame them. Most conservatives in the USA are unstable, gun wielding nuts.

This could be promising depending on how well they implement quality control. Currently, this is where Indian manufacturers struggle

The ultra 7 is actually a good all rounder. Decent performance (well balanced between gaming and production workloads), good efficiency and good pricing with respect to the AMD options. AMD is of course better for pure productivity (9950x), pure gaming (7800x3d and the upcoming 9800x3d) and is better at the low end (7600, 7600x)

If you are speaking about stock Linux mint Xfce, with the default kernal, mesa version etc., your support for very new hardware - Arrow lake, battlemage and RDNA 4 will be imperfect. In general, very new hardware (launched within the last 6 months) will not be supported properly because the lts kernel being used was written before these products were launched

Can’t believe such a cute innocent moment is being spun to make biden seem like a devil. The baby was actually laughing due to the foolery of Biden. We all do stupid things to make babies laugh and that is what Biden did.

Yeah none of this is your fault. You bought what you had to and made sense at the time.

Now I’d try to buy a nice second hand linux friendly machine 😇

Do this only if it makes financial sense. Other than the bluetooth issues, your Surface go must be working fine.

Edit : As for your mouse, you can get one with a 2.4GHz wireless dongle/usb receiver. That way you get a wireless mouse without needing to use bluetooth.

Neither should you give up blutooth on linux. It is microsoft’s fault for using proprietary drivers for bluetooth instead of using a card that has open source support (like all the intel wireless cards are top of the line and have great open source support, they could have used that)

I haven’t hit a deer, not even come close since they aren’t a problem in my country. You are most probably right and i have seen videos of deer just jumping onto the road at the last second which causes an unavoidable accident. My viewpoint is that when you hit a creature(animal or human) at 80mph, they are most certainly dead. If you hit them at 60, they might survive but be gravely wounded. If are able to react and slow down before contact to about 30, they will be hurt but at least they have a much better chance of the survival. Somehow going at same speeds during the day and during the night seems very risky

It was an expressway. There were no lights other than cars. You’re not wrong, had a human sprinted at 20mph across the expressway in the dark, I’d have hit them, too. That being said, you’re not supposed to swerve and I had less than a second to react from when I saw it. It was getting hit and there was nothing I could’ve done.

I am neither blaming you nor critiquing your actions. In fact I agree that we should not swerve. I was just making an observation that driving slightly slower in low visibility might help by giving you more time to notice an obstruction and brake while provide also providing more time for the obstruction to react and clear the road. At least very least, people might slow down enough so that the crash is no longer fatal to the person or animal being crashed into

Nobody is asking you to go at 35 mph. But going 60 mph instead of 80 mph means that your stopping distance will be nearly half and you will have almost twice the amount of time to react.

Maybe drive a little slower at night. If you can’t spot and react to animals on your path, you won’t able to react when it’s a human

Perhaps nobody should be making an electric motorcycle for this use case. At such low quantities, maybe it makes sense to have ICE vehicles for the pleasure aspect.

They’re well suited for commuting

You have hit the nail on the head. The group of people described in the last paragraph of the article should be the target audience for now. Electric motorcycles, for now, are utilitarian vehicles meant to be used within a city. They are not meant for the long haul pleasure drives.

In the US, the regular wall outlet supply is at 110V. Drawing about 12A from that outlet, the power comes to about 1.25kW which corresponds to a charge time of 4 hours. I live in India and drive a electric scooter/moped. It has a 3 kWh usable battery capacity and range of 65 miles. My average daily usage is 15 miles and once in 2 days, I am able to plug in my vehicle to charge from ~35% - ~75% using a 650W charger. It takes only around 2 hours. The charging time is never a hinderance

I have the b5dd model (with the 5600h processor) and linux support is good. Just find out what is the make and model of the wifi card. B55D came with a mediatek card which had problems with older kernels.

Build quality is average at best and it is fairly heavy but when you are going for a budget laptop, you have to sacrifice something. As another commenter said, if you are not gaming or video editing, you could go for different model with a smaller footprint, and better build.

What are you then¿?

It seemed more like a friendly suggestion than any attempt at gatekeeping

Sorry to hijack the thread but are question style posts allowed in this community. Nothing in the community rules mention not allowing posts asking questions or asking for advice but from what I have seen, all the posts here are articles or studies relating to EV.

What sort of battery life are you people seeing from Asahi Linux nowadays when compared to Mac OS? The GPU drivers have matured greatly over the last year so I expect battery life to have improved

If I remember correctly, the gen 1 kona electric had no inbuilt internet connectivity (atleast in the Indian model). Maybe you can see if that is true for your region
