Same.

I still use the controllers to this day though. Those are actually pretty good. The console itself though.... Garbage. So much regret. First, last and only kickstarter project for me.

I dont need much in a laptop, it would be replacing my Lenovo x220t thats really starting to show its age now. So even a 13th gen is a vast improvement, I was just hoping for a more efficient chip for battery life, or a higher performing one so it'll last as long as possible, since I try to keep hardware for as long as possible

I have been waiting for something like this from framework for ages now, super pumped to order one.

Specs are a bit disappointing, so here's hoping it gets a bit beefier cpu option in the future

It has always confused me why they dont use an existing standard like an XT90 as the connector. Two chunky 12v leads that can carry the power needed.

Pretty soon the CPU and GPU are going to swap places! Imagine all the cooling you can fit with an ATX sized GPU with a pcie slot for a NUC extreme like compute element on it!

Is X1Plus available for the P1S? If it is, that's what you should switch to in LAN only mode. Can slice with anything and feed it over to the printer.

It's what I did with mine, even though it was in LAN only mode already. Switch over before they disable that option. Already working on selling it though so I can get a Prusa CORE.

I do like that it exists, but the change from 16:10 to 16:9 is a hard no for me. Probably the only off the shelf option for a screen to mash into the device though. Plus, the cost of it is nearly half the cost of just getting a refurb OLED deck, can sell the LCD one and get a new one for roughly the same overall cost as upgrading without all the downsides.

Their 65" signage TV with CM4 slot retails at 1300$, while its not a fancy micro led with direct lighting, it's never going to spy on you. To me thats a worthy tradeoff. If I needed a TV in my life, thats what I'd be getting.

Good. These things are electric motorcycles, not bikes. See far too many kids on them not obeying any laws and putting themselves in incredibly risky positions, or injuring others being places they shouldn't. I'm all for cracking down on this, as they should require registration and motorcycle lisence to use.

Plenty of electric micro mobile options out there that dont put the kids/users and others at massive risk of injury.

There are/were signage TV's that had that at one point. Was really hoping it would take off because that's my dream TV setup too

I think NEC might still offer some on the CM4? unsure if they can still be purchased as of now, as that war in '22

Edit: appears they're still sold! https://www.sharpnecdisplays.us/system-on-a-chip

Just move to xdrip+, its better in every way than that steaming pile of garbage dexcom puts out. If your endo DEMANDS you use clarity and refuses ti use tidepool, you can generate a version of the dexcom app that outputs locally, and xdrip+ functions normally, and you can relegate the dexcom app to being opened every 3 months.

I love all the work people have put into the open source tools for this, because the first party apps are all garbage for "Fda approval reasons"
