pdfarranger VS ExpansionCards

On Linux I like to use:

https://github.com/pdfarranger/pdfarranger and https://gitlab.com/scarpetta/pdfmixtool for such tasks.

Für PDFs verwende ich pdfarranger.

I see some questions in the comments about document splitting and if you are using PDF for the export in scanning, this adds an extra step but may be valuable in the long run. For Linux users at least, there is "pdfarranger" which most distros have. You can install that, load the PDF and re-arrange pages, remove pages, etc.

PDFArranger

So, I guess, pdfarranger might be faster than PDFSam. https://github.com/pdfarranger/pdfarranger

I like PDF Arranger for converting JPEGs to PDFs (open source on Windows) https://github.com/pdfarranger/pdfarranger.

I have always only been using PDF Arranger for manipulating PDF files (merging different files, arranging, adding, deleting pages) and I'm wondering if there really is no KDE equivalent for that application.

M series is amazing.

If you don’t want Apple, or you want to upgrade, check out Frameworks. [1]

Really satisfying combination of quality and value for high performance laptops.

you're right but loading the front page at http://frame.work shouldn't incur the "build your own" hit.

e-commerce is hard. that's why we get paid so well. finding a smart teenager that you're uncle knows to setup some bullshit for $15/hr vs hiring a senior SRE at $100+/hr, when it directly leads to lost sales is a choice.

Assuming you're in the US, System76[0] and Framework[1] both make laptops that support Linux as a first-class OS.

I tried both and ended up preferring Framework. I especially like that they're repairable.

I bought the DIY version of Framework worried I'd hate building it, but it was super easy to put together. You're only putting together a few pieces, not the entire laptop. It ended up being one of the best unboxing experiences of my life.

Let me introduce you to https://frame.work/

I agree with you about no need. However, speed increases for some goals such as tensors can be massive with more RAM, a faster CPU, and better GPU.

Do you know about the Framework laptop? https://frame.work/

The laptop lets you swap in and out parts as you wish, such as more RAM, different ports, a CPU upgrade, a GPU extension, and even a screen upgrade.

Have you considered a Framework laptop? They have 13-inch and 16-inch models and are designed to be upgraded.

Another brand named Framework are actually doing great progress towards a greener future with their although slightly costly yet perfectly modern, medium to high-end laptops that have iFixit score of literal 10/10, almost as if these new frameworks are advancing and carrying forward the original ThinkPad legacy.

I bought a Framework 13 DIY Edition [1] a few years ago have been using that as my main personal laptop since then. Recently, I had to make some repairs due to an accident and it's awesome that all the parts are available still.

I also loved building my Prusa printer. That took much longer to build (like probably 5 hours for me). But it was really cool to learn all the parts and feel really comfortable with how it works.
