sure, theres been several modular and supposedly repairable laptops before. however theres not a whole lot of alternatives to the reform or framework when it comes to repairability in laptops. atleast not to my knowledge. the reform is also terribly niche. midfavila

yeah ik im not saying the reform is the end all be all
<midfavila>
im just saying that the framework barely clears the bar for being not *complete* junk
<midfavila>
a cheapo thinkpad + nice desktop would be a better use of money, as an individual
<midfavila>
that being said the framework is the laptop i would suggest to my boss if we were to buy company machines

oh ffs, the bouncer is all of a sudden behind a paywall. very well then.. what bouncers to people use? or recommend. preferably free
<sad_plan>
midfavila: i think the framework is a viable alternative to most other laptops. yeah, you can only buy the repair stuff from then, which is a drawback, but theyre atleast doing *something* different. most other laptops arent easily (or at all) upgradeable, or fixable if something broke. which is why i like it.

sad_plan: I host my own :PPPPPPPPPPPP
<sad_plan>
riteo: that ive noticed :p do you run it in-house, or do you rent a remote server?
<riteo>
in house
<riteo>
hence the funky uptime
<sad_plan>
i get that
<riteo>
I mean it does not take much; if you've got a rpi it should be enough tbh
<riteo>
but like mid knows some hosted ones I think, midfavila
<riteo>
I forgot their names honestly
<sad_plan>
yeah, a bouncer doesnt require much tbh. id probably add couple other things aswell, but nothing too heavy I suppose.
<sad_plan>
sdf is the name, but I belive its paid aswell? i gotta check. it has several other resources, which can be nice aswell

There's plenty of other alternatives to sdf. Look at some of the tildeverse accounts you can get for free. I have one on tilde.town, for instance.

thomas_adam: ill take a look. thanks

But then I like all of this smol stuff ("small internet"). That's why I like the tildeverse, not just because it's a "free" shell account. ;)
