Any MNT Reform laptop owner out there for a few questions?
  • I've been musing over it since they made the RK3588 processor module for it. That's a much more widely used chip and there should be more documentation on it floating around. I just love the idea of open source hardware, and the replaceable battery cells are neat. I love the thick form factor too. I'm good with computers but I'm not a wizard or anything, which is my hesitation. I know the Reform NEXT is supposed to be more user friendly, but a framework is a more sensible option for a "normal" usecase. But it doesn't have the pizaaz the reform does.

  • Do you use both a personal desktop and laptop?

    I'm moreso curious if laptop functions have been offloaded to phones. If you have a full gaming desktop, do you see the use case for an additional laptop? or if most people here don't see the need for the increased processing power of a desktop, do you just use your laptop and a phone?

    For myself, I mainly use my desktop, but I have a bunch of quite old laptops for tinkering.

  • Did you end up going for the MNT reform?

  • What are the coolest Lemmy communities you know?
  • Sorry I sortof just lurk, did someone pass away or is this related to the comic storyline?

  • What are the coolest Lemmy communities you know?
  • [email protected]

    This is really unique, just take a peek at it and you will see what I mean.

  • How long have you had your current water bottle?
  • Nalgene covered in stickers, as was the style at the time. Somewhere around 5-6 years old at this point? Been through quite a lot.

  • What microphone are you using for Linux?
  • Shure SM58 going through an Audient ID4 audio interface. Pretty plug and play.

  • What's something you'd change in men's fashion, given the chance?
  • Cargo shorts are functional, you gotta rock the ol boy scout aesthetic.

  • What's something you'd change in men's fashion, given the chance?
  • As a man with a increasingly shiny dome, I wish this was the case. Until then I will endeavor with my unfashionable Tilley wide brim hat.

  • What are your favourite analogies for explaining difficult or complex concepts?
  • "Teaching sand how to think was a mistake".

  • What are your niche hobbies you’d like to share with other people?
  • Oh don't feel bad, my personal favorite and most expensive is my Pilot Custom 823. It holds a ton of ink and the nib is amazing

  • What do you write with your pens?
  • Do you use any particular site to meet penpals? I've been thinking about it, maybe getting a PO box to make it more private - but I see a lot of stories of flaky pen pals that don't write back.

  • What is your favorite ink(s)?
  • I think I should look into getting some red or orange inks as well.

  • What video game have you played the most, that you think is garbage and no one else should ever play?
  • Mordhau. Terrible toxic community, developers that cater only to the super hard core players. Content droughts.. Yet I somehow stuck 500+ hours on it. Playing the lute was nice though.

  • What do you write with your pens?

    So we all love pens for the pieces of art they are, but they're also tools. So, what do you write with your pens? Do you journal, do you take notes? Do you use fountain pens for everything or just certain activities?

    Personally, I write a lot of snail mail letters to friends, and I also use mine to take notes. I've never done a journal before, but I'm thinking it may be useful in helping me unpack some things. Plus, Midori makes some very nice looking 3 and 5 year journals.

  • What are your niche hobbies you’d like to share with other people?
  • Oh nice, didn't know that was a community. I'll head on over.

  • What are your niche hobbies you’d like to share with other people?
  • This could be niche, but I'm a fountain pen nerd. I love stationary, different types of papers inks and nibs and how they all influence the writing experience.

  • Did posts get wiped? (SOLVED)
  • I've been having the most luck recently sorting by "top for 6 hours" and so on.

  • Thoughts about defederation with burggit and lemmynsfw ?
  • I just have NSFW turned off in my user settings.
