Are you implying Rust will stop working or something?

Try CachyOS instead. Ubuntu is not great.

I installed CachyOS for my 8-year old son and his desktop instead of Windows.

It's been wonderful.

GrapheneOS.

Just today I finished migrated all my public and private repositories to Forgejo, with a push mirror to Codeberg for relevant public repos.

It's unbeleivably snappy and fast. I can't recommend Forgejo enough.

On Mars, Great Western Trails, Obsession, Luthier, and Spirit Island are some of my favorite games.

And Netrunner of course!

A developer-focused laptop shouldn't even need arrow keys.

It's weird what people prioritize.

So you'd rather buy the far-fetched conclusion that it's the touch screens fault?

Weird.

A bigger battery is the more likely cause.

Will the hinges be 360 like the laptop 12? I wonder how useful the touchscreen will be without it.

It looks like not (you'd assume they'd have called it out if it was). I really don't understand the utility of a touchscreen without a 360 degree hinge.

This is my main question as well. Either stock or with some sort of separate hinge kit, that would completely seal the deal for me.

Response from the support (according to the Framework forum):

The Framework Laptop 13 Pro Touchscreen supports touch input but does not currently support stylus input. Like other Framework Laptop 13 models, it opens with a maximum hinge angle of 180 degrees and is not designed for pen or convertible-style use.

Pretty disappointing honestly.

Qmk support for the keyboard, like the Laptop 16 has?
