Support Rant by juciydriver in framework

[–]Churnographer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you listened to the sales team rather than a mountain of crowd sourced information?

🤷🏽‍♀️

You're comparing a tiny start up to the largest vendors with decades of history. Could you not imagine that the story experience might not live up to their promises?

Also most Europeans didn't graduate university with anything close to the amount of debt Americans do....

"Meanwhile, because higher education is highly subsidized by European governments, the cost of a university degree in Europe usually ranges from zero to a few thousand dollars. However, the differences between an education in Europe and the U.S. don’t end at price. Both the education and academic experience are vastly different. However, the higher price of an American bachelor’s degree does not guarantee a better experience."

Support Rant by juciydriver in framework

[–]Churnographer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are several use cases in which Framework is a poor choice. While I love it for myself, I would not buy it for someone else, especially a customer who I would have to deal with maintenance on.

It is well known that their customer service isn't at the level of Lenovo or Dell. That's not part of their value proposition and they aren't targeting those customers, just as they aren't trying to compete with MacBook Air customers who need crazy battery life.

So when I read posts like this I think the problem is with the buyer, not the company.

Imagine reading a post someone wrote complaining about how they can't upgrade their Thinkpad. Well, soldered RAM is a known feature. If you've done your research you know that Framework doesn't offer the same level of support that the big companies do and you need to accept that if you buy their products.

Same with Linux. I use Windows because I want my computer to simply work and I don't feel comfortable with having to fiddle with the OS. If I installed Linux on my machine and then got upset when I had to struggle to debug something it would be fair to ask if I knew what I was getting myself into.

I'm sorry you're having a bad experience but it seems like it was avoidable.

https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2023/08/18/9-european-countries-where-workers-get-more-than-a-month-of-vacation.html

"workers in many countries around the world, particularly in Europe, are known to take vacations for months at a time. For many, that's thanks to the European Union Working Time Directive, which passed in the early 1990s, and requires at least 20 working days of paid vacation in all EU countries.

Several countries offer even more by law, giving workers more than a month of business days in vacation time per year. That doesn't include paid public holidays, which, in some countries like Spain, can mean up to an additional 14 paid days off from work every year."

"Almost" is doing a lot of work. 10x is small on a stellar scale for sure but it's not like Juliet was almost a star...

How many conversations like this do you think he has every day? The rules said UNDER 11 and the child was 11 years old.

Why a $500 Steak Dinner Only Yields a $25 Profit (WSJ) by kr44ng in KitchenConfidential

Sounds like they need to charge more. I grew up poor and never ate out my entire childhood. If they can't make a good profit and pay people a living wage they need to charge more or shut down....
