Because no one anywhere should be using Windows Home for anything. It is bad enough with group policy I shudder to think without.

The time it takes to draw said worm is possibly critical for survival of the subsequent step…

The 7040 discussed here is the 1st gen Framework 16" offerings and also an AMD cpu. The newer AI300 series chips don’t seem to play as nice with the older linux kernel available in Ubuntu Noble Numbat 24.04.4 without enabling HWE, HardWare Enablement. Suspend fails on the newer 2nd gen out of the box although I think in my case tracked that to the newer WiFi rather than the mobo/cpu and appears to be solved on the new LTS, long term support, due for release tomorrow. Also been getting some mouse cursor ghosting that wasn’t seen with the 7040 not full lines but half a cursor left rendered on the screen until something mouses over it again and the touchpad stutters upon engagement and jumps which is possible a known Wayland issue but is dramatically more noticeable on the AI 300 than the 7040 once using the touchpad it is fine but initial use there is a slight but noticeable lag. I mean none of these other than suspend (if you don’t know about it and torch your machine in a bag) are breaking usage.

edit newer AI300 also doesn’t seem to kick over to the GPU as reliably but haven’t troubleshot that as intending to upgrade the software shortly. Also Framework doesn’t suggest installing that older version of Ubuntu on said hardware so it seems they are aware of it but those of us who prefer LTS versions as opposed to interim releases have had issues?

Yeah… try GNOME 50… the gnome dev team left their older versions behind and they have become hot garbage sadly.

Currently regretting an “upgrade” to the Ryzen AI series… although many of its most glaring issues (that weren’t issues on the 7040) appear to be fixed in Resolute Raccoon based on testing a daily release of it as a live boot.

Apparently rather varied and more accurate in black and white than color according to the link.

There is sometimes the better quality one gets through DIY but it is rarely cheaper.

Wildly wet. Tons of rain. Geographic reasons for it.

This has been news for 6 years… Associated Press really did axe their employees to think this is a story.

CableMatters hasn’t always lasted forever but has never steered me wrong and always been pleased with their cables (just I have some that have died from use after 10+ years)

Folks have looked at it with acid or enzymes to try and produce fuel ethanol from the sugar forming the cellulose. Humans use the chemistry of grazing animals.
