@frameworkcomputer Very cool. I think this is one of those areas where its importance is vastly understated.
For now this is only a charger for a laptop, but nowadays there are a number of mini PCs which can be powered via USB-C. Of all th hadware components I've had fail over the years, the most common were hard drives and power supplies. So this is a big step in the right direction of longer lived hardware.
Thanks for lpushing things forward!

@soller That was an interesting read. Thanks for sharing.
@PublicLewdness @janvlug @purism I don't think it will. Suspend was already working reliably on the pinephone for quite some time now.
Okay, I've got a general Mastodon question. Is there any way to block a person so that their posts don't show up in your feed even if someone else you follow boosts them?
My expectation was that just blocking and muting somebody would have accomplished this, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Anyhow, thanks in advance for any information about how to acheive the desired effect.

@linmob @emilis @lantashi @linuxphoneapps I will second the recomendation for geopard within a phone interface. On a desktop, lagrange is a far better choice, but on mobile I use geopard.
Also, I would recommend checking out Tuba for interacting with mastadon: https://flathub.org/apps/details/dev.geopjr.Tuba . Tootle is no longer under active development whereas Tuba is, plus it has more features.
@samuelnorbury How exactly did you accomplish this? I just updated my #L5 and millipixels looks and works exactlty as it used to. Which is to say, without having the features you mentioned here.
@TheEvilSkeleton @GeopJr Okay, so I just switched over to this from Tootle. Anyhow, Tuba is amazing, I love it!
I just wanted to stop by here to voice my appreciation. Stellar work, guys!
@phoronix Wow, that performance per watt this CPU puts out is amazing!
@gadgetoid @mntmn I agree with having something included in there for scale (and I even like the lego minifig idea). Other things you might consider including for size comparisons might be, a dvd/blu-ray case, a nintendo switch, a soda can, or perhaps a run-of-the mill paperback novel.
If you think back to the old macbook air reveal, really it was the removal from the manilla folder that shocked/impressed everybody. It was impactful because people knew that size.
@kyle You may call me uncultured, but I think that looks great. On a side note... what an interesting hobby, a very tangible and creative one. Probably pairs really well with software development... I spend hours upon hours writing code or working on documents, but never really have anything too tangible to show for it. Maybe I'll take this as a sign that I need to get back to brewing beer. That way I'd at least have a hobby that others could enjoy as well.
