Yeah I ran fedora for a while when I first got this since that’s one of the official distros but it seems like it would really just be a function of the kernel itself and the laptop firmware.

Going back to fedora does not enable deep sleep by default and I’m way too afraid to manually switch it again after having to pull the battery 5 times already in pursuit of a solution.

I’ve been told this just doesn’t/can’t work.

So basically unless someone can say “I experienced the same exact problem and here’s how I fixed it” I’m just too afraid to try again haha.

Framework advises not to pull the battery and they are not wrong in that advisement. It’s sketchy as hell.

When I enable deep sleep it prevents me from even accessing bios, so I can’t do the firmware battery disconnect at that point.

AUR is super cool (when it’s not getting DDOSed).

Building packages from scratch isn’t that hard usually but it can be and AUR really does simplify that.

You caught me (btw).

I’ve also ran fedora which is an officially support OS.

Using my framework laptop feels like a never ending struggle sometimes but I really like the idea of modular, repairable laptops so here I am.

Edit: I have the FW13 12th gen intel

• The screen has a very slow pixel response time, the ghosting is absolutely real
• The screen is wobbly when I type (fixable with upgraded hinges)
• The track pad is constantly dropping inputs
• The screen resolution is generally awkward and fractional scaling is still hit or miss on Linux
• Updating to the latest firmware (BIOS) required me to install WINDOWS (just for the update)
• For some reason switching to Linux kernel deep sleep mode causes a total system failure that can only be recovered by physically removing the battery and CMOS.
• Physically removing the battery is sketchy

FWIW this is still my daily driver but I do sometimes consider seeing if anyone wants to trade for a ThinkPad haha

Edit 2: If anyone has insight on the deep sleep issue I’m all eyes (biblically accurate angel mode).

When servers say “just eat at home if you don’t want to tip 20%”, do they realize this is the exact same energy as “just get a real job if you can’t afford your bills”?

Military contracts and genocide are two different things.

Like sure military contracting causes a net harm to society but we can’t fault people for drawing a line somewhere.

Honest question, what do you use your phone for? High refresh rates and stuff like that are nice but what are people actually using their ram and storage for?

Hmmmm…

Release the Trump/Epstein files

Yes exactly.

“Implement a first order lowpass filter in C”

LLM has no issue.

“Implement a string reversal function in Wren”

LLM proceeds to output an unholy mix of python and JavaScript.

Even though the second task is trivial compared to the first, LLMs have almost no training data on Wren (an obscure semi-dead language).

Hope are you finding work right now? Shits rough out here haha.

I’ve been an engineer for over a decade and am now having a hard time finding work because of this LLM situation so I can’t imagine how a fresh graduate must feel.

I agree, the terminology used gives it away.

Kinda hard to find jobs right now in the midst of all this but looking forward to the absolutely inevitable decade long cleanup.

Ok buddy, downvote whatever you want and get as tilted as you want but it’s not going to change the fact that most Lemmy users don’t give a shit about playing corporate slop games from EA.

It seems like it upsets you that we’re all happy with the games we can run on Linux. Which is a weird thing to be upset about unless you deep down just resent the fact that we are cooler than you (I use arch btw).

You have very strong Reddit energy which is catching me off guard. Very strange to see someone defending microsoft/ea on the fediverse. Stranger yet to see someone basically rage commenting about it haha.

Welcome to Lemmy haha.

Sounds like you should just go back to Reddit and take you “downvotes to disagree” with you.

If I wanted to spend my time/money/energy on corporate slop I would be on Reddit.
