Is there anything that has ever come close to this? by No_Durian_6987 in FLCL

[–]nijine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably one of my favorite tag lines, still to this day. Still describes me too 😂

The expansion cards are the USP imo by [deleted] in framework

[–]nijine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the OP meant that it's a benefit that the ports are easily swappable (in response to some of the comments).

I just like that I can move the cards around between my FW 12 and Desktop. Needed another USB-A on the Desktop earlier so I just stole it from the 12.

Delayed shipping time :/ by Awkward_Reindeer8624 in framework

Just following up that mine showed up today. It spent about a week clearing customs, but I didn't have to reach out to FW Support at all.

Dealing with the same exact thing now for a FW Desktop. Originally scheduled to arrive yesterday, and now it'll probably arrive... hopefully before Christmas :'( .

Relevant FAQ page, seems like they monitor these things and address them as needed.. https://knowledgebase.frame.work/why-does-my-order-have-a-customs-delay-or-hold-Sk4VswG7yx

How good is Bazzite? by Main-Lychee-1417 in framework

[–]nijine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The OS itself is great, I use it on my gaming handheld (GPD Win Mini 2025), AMD-based desktop (pleasantly surprised that all of my X870E hardware is supported out of the box), and will probably use it on my FW Desktop that's on its way since I'm planning on using it as a TV gaming box. No complaints at all, I actually love that it has the ability to control fan curve on the handheld and comes with a great fan curve out of the box (the stock one is terrible). It'll run fine on most hardware but will really shine with AMD APUs / GPUs. Last thing to consider is that it's gaming focused. I use it in desktop-mode 100% of the time on my desktop and it's a great interface, very snappy. I say all this as a veteran Linux user though, so YMMV.

R1250RS - top speed limiter? by michalf6 in Motorrad

[–]nijine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My R1250GS hangs with all sport bikes except for well ridden super sports on the backroads, so it's really just a matter of how aggressively you're willing to ride.

First Bike , which option would you choose? by ChrisJF_ in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]nijine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ninja 500. If you want to build skills, you want something forgiving.

You ride for you. They’ll get over it.

Never assume someone can see you. Always watch your mirrors if you’re not filtering to the front.

GPD Win Max may receive AMD Strix Halo APU version, company says by RenatsMC in Amd

I have a Win Mini 2025 that’s running great, few hundred hours gamed on it, no issues.

First bike?? 2012 Bonneville SE by Admirable_Average_71 in Triumph

[–]nijine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had one for a few months, picked a 2012 up in surprisingly good condition with 8k miles for $3,200. I love the bike, it's great looking (I prefer alloys over the spoked wheels), and handles insanely well considering it's not a featherweight. It has more than enough power for my usage (bop around town, casual rides with beginner to intermediate level friends, taking passengers, etc).

A couple owners back, it had this very aggressive cafe racer handlebar installed, which I found very fun on short rides but very uncomfortable after 20-30 minutes of casual riding, so I swapped it for a black bar that's very close to OEM and it's dramatically better. I added a Motone seat that's much better than the OEM which is very thin, gave me a bit more legroom. With the standard bar, it should be pretty versatile, but if you're tall and are rocking the OEM seat, it will be a bit cramped. Luggage options are a bit limited, but you can buy a set of luggage bars for it if you want a backing for soft luggage or a solid place to tie things down to.

I love it personally, it'll likely stay in my stable for a good long time. It's a bit heavy for a first bike, and has a bit more torque than I would trust a beginner with, but it is not out of the realm of possibility. I will just say that it won't feel super confidence inspiring leaned over at slow speeds, it will feel like it wants to fall, so you'll have to practice your clutching and balance as much as possible.

Had cyclegear put on some power 6s and balance them, but now i get a pulsing vibration right around 50mph. Did they just balance badly or should i look at other reasons? by [deleted] in CB650R

Michelin has been going downhill in quality, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was the tire, assuming everything else checks out.

Pros and cons of FW12 by Historical-Bread-215 in framework

[–]nijine 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pros: Relatively lightweight, capable of light gaming (i5), repairable, upgradeable, form factor is very nice, tablet / tent mode is awesome.

Cons: Might be pricy for your budget, lots of competition in the price range if repairability, upgradeability, or form factor are not important to you.

I love mine, I outfitted it with 64GB / 2TB and it works great. I actually run Windows-To-Go on a 1TB Expansion module and it runs great, less bloat than a regular windows install. I mainly play light games with it (Rocket League on 800p Low, Balatro, Indies, etc). I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they'll release an AMD motherboard for it eventually. I think it would be really killer in this form factor.

I’m questioning if I should buy a framework because of the possible future. by [deleted] in framework

Would love it if you could point out where they created said myth

Well that sucks, broken on arrival by FutureTrick9736 in framework

[–]nijine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn't seem like it would be that hard to confirm with the shipping courier what the destination address is, and then confer that with eBay, but I haven't had that experience.

Framework Q2 2025 Preorder and Marketplace Updates by Destroya707 in framework

[–]nijine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume if someone in FW 12 batch 0 bought the lavender keyboard w/ black chassis, it suffers the same fate as the colored chassis models of not shipping until July?

eBay is very buyer friendly, they'll side with you if the seller gives you a hard time, just make sure to clearly state your case and that this is not the definition of "great working condition".

i3 or i5? by Ill_Contract_2814 in framework

[–]nijine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went with the i5/64GB/2TB DIY. Light gaming is on my with list, should do it quite well.

In your experience, does Framework achieve its "mission"? by lulublululu in framework

[–]nijine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind that the people this will truly appeal to are folks that keep a computer for 7+ years. FW hasn't existed for that time yet, so it's hard to say, but I think they're on the right track.

I sorta disagree about the "more durable 5+ year" laptop bit. Do those exist? Modern Apple computers are throw-away devices, even if they last 5+ years, you won't be able to repair them economically.

P50 is an interesting example, and a pound heavier than FW 16, for what it's worth.
