| sigrid | thanks, I most likely missed some parts but will be happy to answer any questions | 00:56 |

| Boostisbetter | good morning everyone! I have another question. I am looking to replace my desktop workstation which, after 10 years is dying. | 10:27 |
| Boostisbetter | I would love to get a System76 Thelio but it is too large to ship to my APO address which acts like a US address. | 10:27 |
| Boostisbetter | So what I am wondering is if a linux manufacturer here in Europe has something similar to the Thelio? Not just in performance but also in visual styling? | 10:28 |
| Boostisbetter | I know Tuxedo Computers but their case looks like something I can order from Newegg, and my current Lian Li case is MUCH nicer. | 10:28 |
| Boostisbetter | I also really like that the Thelio has an integrated IO controller for the fans, etc. | 10:35 |
| Boostisbetter | Does any of the manufacturers in Europe have that kind of integration and visual styling? | 10:35 |

| vkoskiv_ | minute: Do commercial UPS shipping contracts have any kind of SLA? | 13:38 |
| minute | vkoskiv_: i guess so... but the express stuff is much more expensive than expedited/standard | 13:39 |
| vkoskiv_ | Bleh. inb4 someone makes hasupsshippedthefirstreformbatchyet.com | 13:40 |
| vkoskiv_ | :D | 13:40 |
| vkoskiv_ | My excitement level remains high despite the delay. | 13:40 |
| minute | vkoskiv_: well, almost all packages have arrived @ mouser now | 13:40 |
| vkoskiv_ | Ah, good to hear! | 13:40 |
| minute | so, stuff is definitely moving | 13:40 |
| vkoskiv_ | Unrelated: I switched jobs last week, my daily driver work laptop is now a lenovo thinkpad T14s - Is the Linux trackpad situation still really this horrible? | 13:42 |
| vkoskiv_ | Scrolling is so awful I'd rather mash pgup/pgdn instead. | 13:42 |
| minute | yeah, there's a few packages that have an ETA for tomorrow now. | 13:42 |
| minute | so by tomorrow morning in texas time everything (from our first shipment) should be there. | 13:43 |
| vkoskiv_ | And batch 2 in the works as well right? | 13:43 |
| minute | yep it is mostly done, only a bunch of units need testing/QA, which will be done tomorrow by mitch | 13:44 |
| minute | i think with that shipment we will catch up with CS sales | 13:44 |
| minute | now it will be interesting how long mouser needs to ship the units/kits back out | 13:44 |
| minute | i.e. how long is the path through the warehouse | 13:45 |
| minute | this is fascinating https://github.com/christinaa/rpi-open-firmware/issues/37#issuecomment-388551489 | 13:51 |
| flowy | vkoskiv_: https://github.com/sponsors/gitclear | 14:22 |
| flowy | i guess this was the latest public update: https://bill.harding.blog/2021/06/06/linux-touchpad-like-macbook-update-touchpad-gestures-land-to-qt-gimp-and-x-server/ | 14:27 |
| flowy | so i guess the answer is: it's still horrible currently, but there is some promising progress | 14:27 |

| Boostisbetter | minute: I saw that System76 have a build of Pop OS for RPI, do you know if something like that has been made specifically for aarch64? I think it could potentially be great to run Pop OS as many of the included repos are specific to my needs. | 17:36 |
| kfx | vkoskiv_: in my experience, switching away from libinput where possible makes a tremendous difference. unfortunately, that's not always possible these days. | 17:49 |
| kfx | Boostisbetter: popos doesn't build aarch64. the ticket about it is at https://github.com/pop-os/pop/issues/1400 | 17:53 |
| sknebel | minute: tech question, do you happen to know if an eDP panel can easily be hooked up to a "normal" display port? | 18:18 |

| minute | sknebel: you'll need some sort of adapter including backlight pwm stuff | 18:45 |
| minute | sknebel: and power | 18:46 |
| sknebel | yeah. got pointed to a blogpost by someone who DIY'd it, seems like you can really just connect the signal lines directly though, no fancy weird bridge ICs needed at least | 18:49 |
| sknebel | (if anyone is curious, this post: https://flogbook.wordpress.com/2018/09/30/passive-displayport-to-edp-adapter/ ) | 18:53 |
| - mjw (QUIT: Quit: Leaving) (~mjw_@2001:1c06:2488:1400:9e5c:8eff:fe8f:a440) | 18:59 | |
| minute | sknebel: yeah, the DP signals should be the same | 21:38 |
| Boostisbetter | man loosing my desktop is a serious blow. It sucks kind of hard. I guess I at least have my trusty Framework and almight Reform. | 22:05 |
| Boostisbetter | I seriously wish System76 could ship to an APO address, but the package and weight are too large and heavy. | 22:08 |
| Boostisbetter | I always thought Tuxedo Computers was a mirror copy of System76 but they don't even look like they even really care about their desktop offerings. | 22:09 |
| sknebel | Boostisbetter: https://slimbook.es might be an option? they have desktops, havent looked at those in detail | 22:50 |
| Boostisbetter | Thanks sknebel: I wrote them an email asking if some things were possible, hoping to hear back from them. I don't like that the case is silver, but I would be cool with it if it could be specced with what I'm looking for. | 22:57 |
| sknebel | yeah, cool cases are are hard if your definition of cool is not "unicorn vomited rainbow LEDs all over it" or "silver box" :D | 22:59 |
| Boostisbetter | yep. I have this Lian Li case that is black and just really nice. But it is huge. But I really like the refined thinkpad aesthetic. | 23:03 |
| Boostisbetter | it doesn't help that I don't like windows or LED lighting. But I appreciate a good design and efficient | 23:10 |
| kfx | if you have a case you like, cyberpowerpc and ibuypower both ship to APOs and offer various discounts depending on which agency necessitated an APO :) | 23:13 |
| Boostisbetter | yeah but for me it is about making sure I get something that jives well with Linux. | 23:15 |
| minute | Boostisbetter: have you seen the teenage engineering pc case? | 23:49 |
| Boostisbetter | Minute: yep. Too small, but cool ideas | 23:49 |
| minute | ok! | 23:50 |
