Unfortunately, his right foot might need a star

Made a complaint to the California Dept of Consumer Affairs. I used the way back machine to show at the I purchased the phone, their policy was “full refund, no questions asked” which they silently changed a few years later and then hide behind as an excuse to deny refunds. Turns out that’s illegal.

A shady company that I had to fight tooth and nail to get my money back after literal years of false promises and moving goal posts. They’ve burned any respected reputation they had.

Yeh, I’ll wait until the bugs are ironed out and my distro (mint) determines it’s stable. No need to start asking for troubles when everything is working smoothly.

An incredible game. If you are keen on trying a modern take on it, Songs of Conquest is an about to be released spiritual successor which is very enjoyable.

Yeh. The Librem was a classic example of overpromise and underdeliver. Borderline scamware by Purism. Will never go near them again.

Is that true? I didn’t realise this.

Man… we can’t have anything nice… damn capitalists fucking every thing up

Purism is dead in the water following the atrocious Librem 5 fiascos.

Never once had a driver issue on Mint. Literally did an entire rebuild (mobo, cpu, gpu, the works). Switched it on, everything worked perfectly, no OS reinstall or driver hunting.

Any issues I’ve heard about, the main culprit is nvidia cause of proprietary crap. Move to AMD graphics and it’s literally plug and play.

Maybe relevant 10 years ago, but not anymore. Hell, most games run better with Proton now, no background telemetry crap.

Apple literally admitted it engages in planned obsolescence practices and has been fined in multiple jurisdictions for doing so.

Not sure why you feel the need to support shady business practices. There are designs that achieve waterproofing/dustproofing while still enabling replaceability. The obvious question then is why would the majority of manufacturers choose a design approach which restricts replaceability?

The point is that virtually every mobile on the market has a non-replaceable battery, and that’s a huge factor driving over-consumption via planned obsolescence.

Because they welded the one consumable that needs replacement to force you to buy new every few years: the battery

AMD Smart access memory apparently if you have both, not sure how much difference that makes though
