Back in my day when RAM was cheap, 8GB is worthless, 16GB is minimum spec to do anything remotely productive, 32GB covers 98% of scenarios, and 64GB is ehh why not at least this way I never have to worry about it.

Probably not. But perhaps you can suffer through 2 min of clicking in the web UI? Once you find their info you can DM through Voyager if that tickles your fancy.

Great to know! Does the pen still generally work for writing/notes? Also any clue if things work well with the newer generations?

Last I dug into Linux on the SP, it was a 3-4 generation lag on stable compatibility. My tablet is nearing EOL (because the charge port sucks and mine doesnt support USB-C charging as a fallback). If I replace it I don’t love replacing it with something used, 4 years old, that may have a short life.

Touch inputs can be a little messy, driver support for closed source hardware (e.g., MS Surface) is understandably rocky, and I’ve had bad experience with battery longevity especially on open source hardware.

My 6-year-old SP battery still has ~70% capacity, which is teriffic. I have had other laptops lose 90% of their capacity after just a year or two, so I’m skeptical of the tablet market.

I’m not saying good Linux tablets don’t exist, just that I’m looking for recommendations since the waters feel murkier to me.

I’m on the hunt for a replacement for my Surface, but sure as shit not getting anything with copilot. Curious what alternatives are out there.

Linux options seem a little light on the tablet front.

Guess it’s time for everybody to find some grass to touch.

You have.

An API that at best allowed a small number is users to access millions of hours of content in a relatively short window of time sure as shit feels like a leak to me.

Any carbon it takes in will be released exactly back to where it was.

Except it won’t be. Combustion is not a perfect CxHy O2 > CO2 + H2O reaction. Theres a bunch of other side reactions happening, NOx, unburned hydrocarbons, particulate matter, carbon monoxide. There are lots of challenges to continuing to utilize hydrocarbon fuels, especially in mobile/small scale applications where you can’t clean the exhaust stream.
