+1 for System76. Linux support by default and they ship to Switzerland

They also work with a Phalanx XR-12

Ha! That was a good one.

(I’ll be surprised if anyone gets the reference I made lol)

Find a way to convert them into triangle shaped disks

+2 for bazzite. Been running it exclusively on my desktop and laptop since June. Have no complaints

Nice! I left Windows behind a few months ago as well. Had been dual booting Ubuntu and Windows since Windows 7.

Tried to primarily game on Ubuntu about a decade ago but it just didn’t work out well at the time so I had to keep Windows around. Fast forward to this past year with Windows 10 quickly approaching EoL and (me personally) not being a fan of the direction Canonical is taking Ubuntu I started looking at other options.

Ended up learning about Bazzite and haven’t looked back. Was able to play almost my entire game’s library without much effort. I had planned on dual booting two Linux operating systems so I could separate work from play, but decided to stick with one.

This is a must grab for me. I have all the Star Wars games available for switch (with the exception of the live service game that recently released). If this gets a physical cartridge I’ll be picking one up

I can’t say I’m surprised to read this. Definitely a shame for those who planned on setting up EmuDeck soon. Good to hear that if you already have it you keep it though

Sure. In Windows there’s ways to change the settings for it. I’ll link some steps on that. I’ll also give the direct link if you want to use a blank keyboard:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/learning-center/how-to-remap-your-keyboard

That article above goes very in depth about how to get that done. Depending on what you need to work with; foreign languages, different key formats, etc. it should have the steps to switch them out and give you the best workflow. The short of it though, even if your physical keys show one thing, they will react like you expect with a keyboard you’re familiar with.

As for the physical framework keyboard: https://frame.work/marketplace/keyboards

That second link will shows the different keyboard options they have. As a side note, if you choose the DIY edition, you can pick from the different keyboards rather than be stuck with default English. Still doesn’t have Swedish, but may give you a better alternative this way.

Do note, the DIY edition does require some assembly. When I got mine I had to install the wireless card, memory and SSD. Everything else is basically pre-assembled. https://frame.work/products/laptop-diy-13-gen-intel?q=processor

Feel free to ask more questions if you need to. And you’re welcome

One other thing that you should consider is what kind of software you know you need to run. I did read in the other comments that you mentioned Microsoft Office. If you need a native installed version, that’s where Mac or Windows will be stronger options.

That said, I have both a 2017 MacBook Pro as well as a 1st generation Framework laptop. Between the two of them, I prefer the Framework for a wide variety of reasons. Repairability and upgradability being major factors.

If you opt to use the framework laptop, I know the keyboard can be swapped out for a different language one. After looking at all the different keyboards they have, they don’t have Swedish as an option, but as an alternative, you could always get one of the blank ones and add the lettering down the line. Each operating system can change different keyboard formats on the fly, so even if you used a standard English QWERTY one, it could be switched to DVORAK in the OS and function like it. This should be the same for a Swedish language one if I’m not mistaken.

Finally for operating systems, if you need specific apps, Windows will likely give you the most compatibility with whatever you need to work with. Linux on the other hand is what I personally use and recommend if you’re willing to try something else. If you do, Linux Mint is the easiest one to jump into for a wide variety of reasons. And as a side note, you can also dual boot, using Windows for your studies and Linux for everything else.

I know this was a longer response but I hope that gives you some insight for your situation. Good luck!

This is something I would like to know as well. I have an open preorder at the minute and haven’t received anything. These articles are how I found out. Best practice for now is to change your password and pay attention to the payment method on file for unauthorized transactions

Oh wow, TIL. Thank you for sharing that information and how you found it. Seeing how it will occasionally charge back up to 100% I may start using this feature as well.

The reason I had not yet was from seeing how other devices were affected in the past. Usually just a hard cutoff at 80% and never charged above that. Eventually even if you tried, for those devices the battery couldn’t charge to 100% again after a while. Having the iPhone occasionally charge to 100% should resolve that.

Anytime. And I just saw that. I learned something new today. If that’s how it’s designed that should indeed help with battery longevity

You’re welcome! That’s good that it’s not a consistent issue. The only thing I can add to that would be basic things like; did this happen with a wired or wireless charger? Does a 3rd party charging block make a difference? Does this occur after an iOS restart or system update?

Just some food for thought if you see the issue often enough.

I’d like to provide additional feedback for you but since I haven’t used the feature the most I can do is provide the answers I have today. Always worth making a post about it like you did before reaching out to apple. Maybe someone else will see this post and provide another perspective as well? Either way, I’m sure the battery going past 80% on occasion will see a patch eventually

I haven’t tried using that, but I would always take the battery indicator reading with a bit of salt. I’d say it’s 95% accurate but not perfect. (Source: been repairing iPhones for a while). iOS 17 may also have some bugs there since it’s a newer feature. May be worth reaching out to apple directly if you’re able to replicate that often enough.

That said, I have had days where my battery will last until the next without an additional charge, but have had others where I will have to charge it sooner than expected too.

I have the same model iPhone; 15 Pro, 512 GB

Hope that helps

I’m glad that was added. If you haven’t seen that before it was actually from an unfinished episode of TCW. I’m sure the unfinished episodes are still floating around the net somewhere.

Yeah, TCW added a lot of depth and weight to important moments in the prequels. The opening scene adds a ton of depth with the foreshadowing

Agreed on both points. The animation may not have been season 7 quality, but for a fan project it definitely did a fantastic job.

I enjoyed watching the full fight uninterrupted with jump cuts between Yoda and Palpatine removed. I did like seeing some of the minor additions to the fight and thought using voice lines from the lego Star Wars games was a great choice (didn’t feel out of place).

The end of disc 1 for the original Final Fantasy VII. (I’m being intentionally vague here for anyone that hasn’t played it and will be playing the newer FF7 games)

That’s exactly what I ended up doing. The prices on the refurbished models were too good to pass up

I don’t follow crypto stuff, so that’s news to me. Atlantis, Mercury, Orbit and Orion are still great choices
