That's good, they might have improved. Mine didn't last a year, but I think it was an earlier version.

It was a few years ago so I can't really comment on newer versions. But I recall the plastic bottom coming away from the top more and more over time. They don't manufacture their own laptops, so they are kinda stuck relying on a third party. (Clevo, I think.)

Yeah, I can sort of understand the impulse that everything must be preserved no matter what because we don't know what will be useful or interesting, but it's not realistic. Embrace ephemerality! It's fine!

I had a galago pro and it was not well built. It fell apart faster than any other laptop I've used.

Framework hasn't done that yet. They have an event in 3 days and a lot of people seem to be thirsting for a Strix Halo main board, though.

That's a great resource I was unaware of! Thank you.

That's something I hadn't considered. I'll look into it. My naive expectation is that I would need better optics.

With black and white, I'm actually interested in doing the development myself. So once I'm comfortable doing it by the numbers I'll probably give that a shot. Thanks.

[–] bilb@lem.monster 2 points 3 months ago

Thanks, I'll hold onto it and give it a try once I know what I'm doing a bit better.

I recently bought one of these on a lark. I've yet to develop any film, but I like some of the results I've seen.

It's trivial to enable flathub, so it's not meaningfully reducing the availability of software. It's just a default.
