It is actually quite playable; has been for quite some time :-)
I have sunken quite some number of hours into playing it during the past 1,5 years or so....

Anyway, it is nice to see it come out of Early Access after a century or two of development :grin:

Quoting: cameronbosch

Quoting: Boldos

Quoting: cameronboschWhat's the point of buying this over the Framework Laptop 16? The Framework Laptop 16 is much more modular, it has 2 USB4 ports, it has a Linux fprintd compatible sensor, it has a 16:10 screen unlike pretty much every other Linux laptop, and it has ANSI keyboard options unlike pretty much every good Tuxedo Laptop.

Honestly, this device seems like a bit of a miss to me... It's good to have options, but I can't see myself getting this when I'm still waiting for a Framework Laptop 16 to ship...

Because of these problems and additional costs (for EU)?
!This applies when you order somewhere to EU [External Link]
Also, Framework just does NOT provide half of EU keyboard setups.
So I guess, those are some of the points.

There literally aren't any ANSI options from Tuxedo though. So if youre not in Europe, this laptop is DoA. Not to mention 16:9 needs to die on laptops; nearly every good Windows laptop has moved on from 16:9.

Also, your link isn't working.

Yeah, I fixed the link, should be working now. Thanks.

In other notes: Yes, that was *exactly* my point: When I'm from EU, it is actually the Framework option which does not make much sense: No EU keyboard layouts, additional purchase costs for being an extra-EU company.

So if you're an EU customer, Tuxedo makes perfect sense. And is a preferred manufacturer to e.g. Framework or System76.

Works like a charm under Steam Proton :smile::heart:

Well, it is a "skinned/modded" Stellaris, yet it actually isn't.

I have to admit that this is actually pretty good ST game, with some game mechanics I'm missing dearly in Stellaris (no starlanes, just maximum logistics warp range; discrete ships/alteregos for governors and spies, doing their job at places where they fly; historical missions, through which it is possible to make Federation the bad guys, or e.g. reform Cardassians to be the good ones...).

And lots and lots of other typical ST events and content...
And with a very nice soundtrack (although a different one, than what one would expect).

I don't know (and trust), what these web counters are really showing.
Not because they are rigged, but because the browsers themselves are rigged.

What does my Ubuntu pre-installed Firefox report?

Well it looks great and all, but really, I'm sticking with (Linux native) X4:Foundations for now :whistle:

Quoting: mr-victory

Quoting: Boldosthe package is marked as *Verified developer* e.g. Microsoft, or JetBrains or Spotify

Coming Soon(TM) to Flathub, the about page of beta website now mentions "verified apps"
https://beta.flathub.org/about [External Link]

Yes.
And this is great news; I'm glad that Flahub will have this too. Getting a bit closer to be on par with Snaps, so one more step for flatpaks to be more usable for me.

Anyway, we have this (basic, crucial) functionality with Snaps for how many years now?
Observe: They are following Canonical's footsteps. Yet again....
