Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

A Framework Laptop Hacking Story
When I was getting ready to flash again, I noticed an issue about the compiler version used to build the firmware binary. I followed the advice, but more importantly I noticed that the issue has been recently fixed, and in the resolution, the maintainer says "Next release (hx20 3.19, hx30 3.07) will include them". It reminded me of something crucial: the Framework EC firmware source code repo doesn't have any particular indication of its level of stability at any given commit. Which commits could be considered fully tested releases? What if the head of the branch introduces a bug that they're working on fixing?

What is the status of offering coreboot on the framework 13?
The EC code on the normal Framework devices is already based on the Chrome EC code anyway. https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/EmbeddedController

Can I disable Intel ME / is there open source firmware?
EC firmware is open sourced by framework: https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/EmbeddedController

Framework announces AMD, new Intel gen, 16“ laptop and more
There the keyboard input is handled by the embedded controller: https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/EmbeddedController/blob...
On the 16 the keyboard is a USB keyboard that could even be used standalone, without the laptop.
- Fans not controllable?

Problem with `ectool`: `Cannot open lockfile /run/lock/cros_ec_lockCould not acquire GEC lock.`
I tried the pre-compiled `ectool` from the TamtamHero's repository as we and comiled the EmeddedController from Framework (from this repository). Both give the same error message.

The (GNU/)Linux rabbit hole has been a negative influence on my mental state
Great reminder that (as of right now) we're far removed from hardware that is 100% free (as in freedom). The closest we've got is probably provided by Raptor Computing Systems. However not everyone in the world is privileged enough to own such devices unfortunately. And I haven't dabbled into other possible mishaps that come with using such devices. The lack of "free-hardware" is a major concern though. I'd argue that there aren't enough reasons to be optimistic about this as of right now. Therefore our best bet is to not let good be the enemy of perfect; light at the end of the tunnel...

Fan Control
As far as I'm aware the only way to manually change the fan speed is using `ectool` from https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/EmbeddedController/

Framework in 2022: Year-in-review
We open sourced our Embedded Controller (EC) firmware and made it available on GitHub for you to modify if you wish.

Fix Intel CPU Throttling on Linux
You can make thermald ignore that protection by using the `--ignore-cpu-id` flag. See thread leading up to: https://github.com/intel/thermal_daemon/issues/268#issuecomm...

Fan Control
I don't use Windows but in Linux, using thermald you can also set your own temperature and power limits which would also effectively limit fan speeds. You can also control EPP/EPB manually...

[Fedora] LG Gram 16 2022 12th Gen Alder Lake
If you're in the EU and looking for a thin and light with good battery life and need/want unsoldered/up-to 64GB of RAM, I believe that the Slimbook Executive 14/Tuxedo InfinityBook Pro 14 Gen7 might be the best options atm - 99Wh battery, 1.3kg for a 14" 16:10 version. Slimbook has a 16" version as well, although the battery is a bit smaller. These are Alder Lake H but using thermald and tlp I believe you can bring power usage in line w/ P or U chips.

Managing CPU frequency and temperatures on Linux Mint
thermald added support for both Alder Lake and Raptor Lake in version 2.5 two months ago, so you can build it for Linux Mint from the build instructions for Ubuntu here: https://github.com/intel/thermal_daemon

Conserving battery on company managed Linux Distro
thermald settings can also affect battery life/performance a lot.

Asus ZenBook 14x Ryzen 7 6000
For Intel, there's https://github.com/intel/thermal_daemon and actually a whole range of tools/strategies for using RAPL to control power usage that can be manipulated directly, like this: https://community.frame.work/t/thermal-management-on-linux-with-rapl-limits/17416
