    There's not a lot to review, it's pretty bare bones. It has a clock, heartrate sensor, and can tell you notifications. I only really use it for the time and notifications, since th…

    I don't know, any hardware that I've used any big distro on (ubuntu, pop, manjaro) just worked out of the box instantly for all of these. On battery especially for many laptops I f…

    New York City, and I don't think it's bad. The effort it takes for me to apply to jobs, and conversely, to approve/reject applicants (according to other people that I've talked to)…

    As someone who's in college and looking/lookedfor internships to do over the summer, postal is literally not an option anymore. Companies will not offer a mailing address to their …

    Google isn't a government entity, it's a private company. Had there been more restrictions on what tech corporations (and corporations as a whole) could do, power could have been l…

    It's literally capitalism. It's the system that Google was allowed to thrive in and become this powerful.

    This is the thing that I have the most passion for. I like computers and electronics. But it's dwarfed by other passions that I have that I would much rather be doing. No bills are…

    It's so frustrating for me to read things like "I am sad for you". I don't have the option to do what I want; someone has to pay to feed the children and keep the lights on at my v…

    I feel like people who say that "it's so much money, so try and get something out of it" are people who have never had the experience of being a "bad student" and have an immense p…

    I would buy this laptop once my current laptop dies (don't want to produce unnecessary e-waste) if it had coreboot. Until then, I'm planning to use system76. I'm conflicted between…

    Right people should but this will only increase people being deluded, because of it's ease of use. And it's not like any of us are immune to being deluded either; I'm sure there ar…

    This is actually incredible! I think we should push for web apps more and more, it'll help for convergence between platforms. Do you have a timeline for when this will look good on…

    I think it would probably be worthless. SEO means money spent to the search engine company, and why improve UX when you could buy your seventh super yacht?
