Wayland is flawed at its core and the community needs to talk about it

You said a lot, and I didn't read ALL of it, but what I read I agree with 100%. I've used linux since 96 and recently I've moved everything to Wayland because plasma was removing support for X11 and also Wayland just works better for arm SBC framebuffer devices in many cases. I use my work computer

Apple's next Macs will finally check every box

Let's also not forget the first 7 years of the XPS 13, it had that ridiculous webcam around the bottom of the screen pointing upwards like a nostril cam.

We replace all laptops with Framework laptops - A one year review

Our 1000 Dell XPS 13 + with their failure rate of 14% in the first 3 months and a further 6% in the next 9 months begs to differ. We literally had a Dell tech in our office more than our actual IT staff. Just a total poo storm. Dell offered us a partial refund to try and keep our business going forw

Windows on Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme is finally what Arm laptops should have been

I have briefly tried a Lunar Lake laptop (Dell XPS 13) and it did not feel as snappy for my workflow. PTL laptops are too expensive right now for what they offer.

Microsoft takes on MacBook Neo with new 'value advantage report,' claims Windows laptops offer double the RAM for less money and up to 56% longer battery life

I've been pretty loyal to Dell and have had some good computers. I came from a Dell XPS 13 from 2020 that had served me well, but had seen better days. I tried the 14 Plus because I didn't want to spend another $1300 on a laptop. But it feels like you have to do that with Windows to get something th

I will never be able to comprehend why Apple did this.

I used to have a Dell Xps 13 with a camera at the bottom. It was weird cause it always seems like you're looking somewhere else.

Looks like Software Optimization is back on the menu boys!

I personally question how much software optimisation can be done to be honest. One of the biggest resource hogs on my machine right now is hilariously Spotify, at a whopping 1.8G of RAM split over 9 processes. Then I've got Discord with 8 processes at 1.7GB. That's 3.5G, or nearly half the RAM gone

Your pick for the best overall laptop brand?

I don't trust any of them. I'll have to buy a new laptop in due time because I can't upgrade the RAM. I currently have a dell xps 13 from 2018. It was basically the top of the line one that i got at a black friday deal for 30% off. Had to replace the battery once, which is fine, but now with windows
