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.

Does anyone use system-manager or some alternative?
This mostly minimal example seems legit, but I can't get it working.

Framework announces AMD, new Intel gen, 16“ laptop and more
https://github.com/Lillecarl/nixos/blob/master/shitbox/disko... this is my declarative partitioning scheme, I use mdraid, LUKS, LVM and btrfs. I also mirror my bootloader so if one drive dies I can still boot :)
Hardware raid is legacy :)

Learning NixOS as a Newbie
https://github.com/Lillecarl/nixos here's my configuration. I'm moving a lot of packages from my system config to my home config instead still. There's also something called devshells you can use with flakes, that'll give you packages in a one time disposable shell, which is quite great.

Ncdu – NCurses Disk Usage
Zellij instead of tmux (not necessarily better, but it's easier to use)
Xonsh instead of bash (because you already know Python, why learn a new horrible language?)
bat instead of cat (syntax highlights and other nice things)
exa instead of ls (just nicer)
neovim instead of vim (just better)
helix instead of neovim (just tested it, seems promising though)
nix instead of your normal package manager (it works on Mac, and essentially every Linux dist. And it's got superpowers with devshells and home-manager to bring your configuration with you everywhere)
rmtrash instead of rm (because you haven't configured btrfs snapshots yet)
starship instead of your current prompt (is fast and displays a lot of useful information in a compact way, very customizable)
mcfly instead of your current ctrl+r (search history in a nice ncurses tui)
dogdns instead of dig (nicer colors, doesn't display useless information)
amp, kakoune (more alternative text editors)
ripgrep instead of grep (it's just better yo)
htop instead of top (displays stuff nicer)
gitui/lazygit instead of git cli (at least for staging, nice with file, hunk and line staging when you have ADHD)
gron + ripgrep instead of jq when searching through JSON in the shell (so much easier)
keychain instead of ssh-agent (better cli imo)
Wrote this on the train with my phone by checking https://github.com/Lillecarl/nixos/blob/master/common/defaul... for which packages I have installed myself :)

PipeWire: A year in review and a look ahead
https://github.com/Lillecarl/nixos/blob/1c76775bbed80057cf54...
This is my pipewire config, does the job perfectly for me, tracking unstable.

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/
