this really is otherwise a quite nice machine. it just sucks being an early adopter of qualcomm snapdragon elite, because the older snapdragon 8cx was less buggy...
@ariadne Not the same class of issues, but coincidentally this weekend I bought a Dell (amd64) mini-desktop to replace a failing no-name Mac Mini form factor clone as my edge router. It was the cheapest option for my needs given [AI ruins everything]. Motherboard of course is proprietary but I was impressed with the UEFI setup program. And it fits in a Kallax cube.
@lispi314 I don't know if/how this affects Secrets specifically but a significant fraction of GNOME developers are RedHat/IBM employee and unless something has changed very recently, they were in the news last year as it was discovered they basically HAD to use AI tools for coding.
it seems that qcom-wdt is now properly keeping the watchdog maintained, so hopefully that is the end of my woes and i can just enjoy a stable machine with EL2 and 64GB RAM
also maybe it would be nice if lenovo just updated gunyah (there has been a fix for like 9 months now from qualcomm) in the next firmware update. but as far as they are concerned this is a windows on arm laptop and they do not care about linux, it seems.
i hacked in the definition of the SoC watchdog from another patch in the linux 7.0 patchqueue and it hasn't blown up on me, so i am guessing that is the missing piece
Walked these envelopes to the Post Office today. They all have stickers in them, some have my new Minnesota flag stickers in them.If folks keep signing up, I'll keep mailing them out. Sending out little moments of joy, and tracking USPS delivery times one letter at a time.#StickersAndStamps #USPS #stickers #Minnesota #art
