I was reading <a href="https://slatestarcodex.com/2019/07/04/style-guide-not-sounding-like-an-evil-robot/">a little style guide on Slate Star Codex</a>. Now truth be told, I generally find this kind of &ldquo;don&rsquo;t say this, say that instead&rdquo; style guide somewhat patronizing and quite irritating (more of a testament to my own rebellious spirit than any indictment of any author) and unhelpfully unnuanced (a more practical complaint), and my first instinct was to want to argue this lack of nuance. On the other hand, Scott is a very skilled communicator and an examplar in how being an enormous dork need not be a barrier to popularity, and there is a more helpful general principle hidden in these rules.

Having arrived at a nice concise principle of communication, let&rsquo;s take a step back and generalize a bit, because I think this idea of the brain as constantly predicting sensory input and responding to surprises is useful and interesting. Specifically, while writing this it called up something I have read about schizophrenia. In a nutshell, schizophrenics commonly experience something what is called &ldquo;delusions of reference&rdquo;, in which they interpret innocuous things (e.g. newspaper headlines, things said on radio) as having special meaning to them. In some theories of brain function, there is an explanation for this that goes as follows: the brain is constantly predicting upcoming stimuli. In people with schizophrenia, this sometimes goes awry in a way that makes the brain flag something innocuous as deeply surprising. To the schizophrenic person, this feels as though the stimulus in question is somehow deeply meaningful to them personally, presumably in the same way that choosing an unusual &ldquo;pokey&rdquo; word instead of a more common synonym feels deliberate and meaningful.

Sacramento, California, 2355. Jesus Salvador Rodriguez was a teacher and healer. Working two jobs was hard work, but he liked the extra income, hoping the size of his palestial two-bedroom apartment would help attract a mate. Long ago, before the Singularity, there had been many jobs; now it was down to just two. There were healers, who worked in healthcare administration, and teachers, who worked in college administration. Rumors had it that somewhere out there the Digital Nomads yet roamed, traversing the galaxy in a bid to get ever further away from California. Scientific concensus dismissed these rumors as a hoax, holding that the universe held nil but Earth and Paperclip.

It was Thursday afternoon, and Jesus was at work. When not? Long ago, there had been the matter between <i>Working From Home</i> and <i>Living In The Office</i>, and the office had won. Everyone was, of course, well aware of the irony of living at the office for the sole purpose of renting an apartment, this being the subject of a centuries-old comedic tradition. A tale as old as time; so as the peacock shows its fitness by painting a target of auspicious technicolor plumes on its own back, so must humans do retarded shit to get laid.

This required setting up a swap file and setting a kernel command line parameter to refer to it, but it was easy to do. It works well. I&rsquo;ve observed the laptop auto-hibernating when the battery runs out, but it doesn&rsquo;t do this reliably, so I should probably configure it myself.

Using some <code>fish</code> scripts, <code>bspwm</code>, <code>picom</code> and <code>xst</code> I rigged up a transient, transparent terminal to use for quick shell jobs. I used the scripts and config file in <a href="#org080fbbf">Appendix A</a> to do this. The implementation is a bit hacky, and it&rsquo;s not impossible to break, but it serves my purposes well (and more important, it was fun to make)!

Framework seems to advertise their keyboard as having particularly deep travel, but it mostly just feels like any chiclet keyboard to me. Not a bad chiclet keyboard, but not that great, either. The layout is fine, but it makes me miss the thinkpad.

I&rsquo;ve never had a decent touchpad before, so I was pleasantly surprised. I expected to miss the trackpoint on the thinkpad a lot, but this is fine, though it&rsquo;s still a step down. Pinch to zoom doesn&rsquo;t work very well, but I don&rsquo;t use that functionality a lot. I miss having dedicated mouse buttons; the clicking functionality on this touchpad works fine for me, but it&rsquo;s hard not to mess up left/middle/right click. That&rsquo;s a good incentive for me to practice relying on the mouse less, though. There&rsquo;s plenty of <a href="https://linuxtouchpad.org/">work being done</a> on the Linux touchpad experience software-side, too. It&rsquo;s a nice time to be a linux laptop user!

With the disclaimer that I haven&rsquo;t tested very intensely and I haven&rsquo;t tuned power settings very much. <br>
I seem to get about 6.5 hours of real-world use time when using Emacs and doing light web browsing. I don&rsquo;t have a good benchmark for more intensive tasks, but compiling does hit the battery pretty hard. All in all I&rsquo;m very happy with it, getting decent battery life on Linux is hard. It might be worth eventually buying a power bank for it though, for travel~

The little expansion cards are one of Framework&rsquo;s big marketing things. I think they&rsquo;re pretty neat, though I don&rsquo;t always quite understand the way people talk about them, as &ldquo;dongle killers&rdquo;. I would find hotswapping these about equally obnoxious as carrying dongles. The idea of aftermarket expansion cards is interesting, though - these are low level, high bandwidth ports, with I think similar capabilities to the ExpressCard ports on old business laptops, but more modern with a USB-C port. I&rsquo;m looking forward to the USB4 era!

So far I haven&rsquo;t felt limited by performance at all, the experience has been really snappy. I haven&rsquo;t thrown particularly difficult things at it, though, but that&rsquo;s fine - most of what I do on a laptop is reading, web browsing, and text editing. I played some Factorio on it and that seemed fine, but using the touchpad felt limiting so I didn&rsquo;t play very much.

Getting this laptop set up has been really fun! It&rsquo;s a good opportunity to take stock of where we&rsquo;re at. On the hardware side, I am very impressed that it&rsquo;s now possible to make a laptop that&rsquo;s this user-servicable, this well-specced and still not <i>that</i> expensive. It&rsquo;s a reminder of how much better things could be.
