  • You also talked about, in that comment, the age all other things are defined as adulthood, but that’s not even clear. Contract law says 18, unless you qualify for unreasonable to live at home, where you can sign contracts at 16. The driving age is 17 in several states. Medical privacy takes effect at 15. Age of consent nationwide is 16 (as long as the other person doesn’t have a duty of care over you). So there’s already a lot of precedent for a younger age of adulthood.

    When I was 16, I was politically involved and I wanted to be able to vote. You could say that anything you’re not motivated to care about is a distraction. Plenty of things are tried again in politics as the world progresses. That’s like saying we should give up on climate change.







  • Okay so a few counterpoints. Firstly, it would only be more optimised assuming the user actually knows what they’re doing when it comes to those optimisations you discussed. Considering the Framework 12 is designed to be a replacement for the Chromebook in education, I’d say the average userbase would be better with an alternative.

    Secondly, benchmarks are designed to be a reflection of general usage. Gentoo that’s optimised for productivity, or for gaming, or for creative work just isn’t indicative of every users set up. It also can’t be used comparatively in a fair manner with other devices if it’s specialised in a way that is not automatic on the part of the OS. The journalist would need to set it up in a general manner, and then it loses a lot of that optimisation that you speak of. That’s just how impartiality works.
