I'd like to read some reviews about it :blobcatberlineraww:

@aral I like portable stuff, but I also made the switch to ortholinear (for #dyspraxia a great thing). So I decided to replace my aging Lenovo #ThinkPad x220 by a refurbished Dell Latitude 5290 2in1 tablet. I am quite happy with it. I am typing this with this "old" tablet running Ubuntu 22.04 with an ortholinear 47 keys keyboard.

Of course the #StarLite is a nice modern alternative.

@aral
oof. shame about the apparent lack of stylus.

So, after all that, I’m back to being very excited about my early(ish) birthday present (it doesn’t ship for another two months).

I have some very neat plans for this little tablet… hehehe!

:awesome:

Right, so I just put in an order, selected their invoice option at checkout and was able to transfer them the money via IBAN in seconds. Wish I’d done that from the start.

*Phew!* That was way harder than it needed to be.

(Again, I’ll update you all if/when they get back to me let me know the issue with failed transactions resulting in preauthorisations is fixed. Until then, if you’re going to pre-order the #StarLabs #StarLite #Linux #tablet, I’d highly recommend you pay by invoice.)

Be careful ordering the new #StarLite #Linux #tablet from #StarLabs Systems.

If their system declines your credit card, it still places a pre-authorisation for the full amount into your bank account – thereby reducing the balance of your account for the full amount. The authorisation is for a whole month and so you cannot touch that money for a month.

I called and spoke with them and they told me there’s nothing they can do on their end and bank won’t investigate unless they take the money.

I am of the opinion that if we keep waiting for the “perfect” #Linux tablet, it will never exist. The specs of the #StarLabs #StarLite are head and shoulders above any other Linux-dedicated #tablet thus far.

I plan on purchasing one once I see a product review, and if it’s as good as I hope it will be, I hope that Linux users will support it with their WALLETS so we get more and better devices like this.

@glowrocks Django is still very much alive and I, unfortunately, work with it daily at my job. It didn't age well, though. The support for asyncio is still quite rough, support for typing is third-party (see django-stubs) and painful, and it hides too many things (the ORM makes it too easy to make bad requests). The modern most hyped web framework is #fastapi and I personally found #litestar (ex #starlite) quite nice (better #sqlalchemy integration).

Hello friends,
this week's edition of The Supertone Show is particularly special for me as it features artists from my home town of Ross On Wye and the local area.

This week's show features music from #RobertPlant, #Pretenders, #MottTheHoople, #Starlite&Campbell, #ManicStreetPreachers, #FredAstaire and a surprise track!!

Enjoy and have a great weekend!!

I’m considering getting the #StarLabs #starlite laptop. It’s like the dream mini laptop I’ve always wanted. To put Linux on and use everywhere.

And #starlite has faster dependency injection as well:

#starlite also has a serious edge in handling post data:

The #Starlite trie based routing is able to handle path and query params just as well as regex based solutions, as this benchmark shows:
