    I'm out of the loop on this. Could you point me in a certain direction where I could read about this?

    > You'll need to do a little more legwork to replace them. That's true. You will need to install the applications by yourself. A bit of work but worth it, I think.

    You could get a SFF PC like the other reply mentioned, and install something like Plasma Bigscreen[1] on it. [1]( https://plasma-bigscreen.org/ )

    Hello Nirav, When can we expect Framework to start accepting orders from India?

    This struck a chord with me. If you don't mind, could you please explain more about how you changed your mindset? It seems like you're talking about letting go as opposed to mainta…

    I don't think that's a stupid question. It's useful to read philosophy as we're exposed to the thought process of that specific author/philosopher. A lot of times, the conclusion y…

    Could you elaborate on the similarities between Shiva Sutra and Japanese Iroha?

    Jim Carrey, too, seems to have reached the same conclusion as Marlon Brando with regards to fame, status, and monetary wealth.

    I mentioned war in response to your comment relating to mass killing. Again, it's not ideal. But it is necessary, evil as it may be. Like capital punishment.

    True. But often times, war is a necessary evil.

    I wasn't familiar with the audio reduction feature. Thanks for pointing it out. My issue has more to do with background noise from my surroundings.

    PocketCasts has a feature called _Volume Boost_ which boosts the sound level. This is often helpful in some podcasts where the audio level is a bit too low in some sections. To my …

    This is where version pinning comes in. Most base images use specific versions of packages.

    The issue is form over function. But then, each person has a different view of what is an acceptable tradeoff for reduction in weight and/or volume of the laptop. Louis Rossman doe…
