Hey @DavidGoldfield can you run python on the BT Speak? Because that would be pretty cool.

@mcourcel @DavidGoldfield Isn't that thing just running Linux? Should be able to run just about anything on there.

@simon @DavidGoldfield @mcourcel Man, the BT Speak is something I really want, and really have absolutely no use for, and thus can't justify purchasing in any way.

@fastfinge @simon @DavidGoldfield @mcourcel Pretty much same situation for me. I've been telling myself not to for a while, and so far have succeeded.

@modulux @DavidGoldfield @mcourcel @simon Also, like, it's just a Raspberry Pie with a special case. If I had more time and willpower I could make something similar for a lot less money. And yet, I still want it! Even knowing exactly how overpriced it is.

@fastfinge @modulux @DavidGoldfield @mcourcel If you want to pay that much money, get one of these. www.amazon.com/GPD-Pocket-I7-1195G7-2TB-Full-Featured-Touchscreen/dp/B0B3X47BV6?crid=1BN3UXH644C9O&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.pUE4471zjeDN8vUTJT9Osna0rcBAN9nwPik3cR22W_0I6jUzr5znyj_00tmA8eE3EbnUsKVUvF6khW0Rswxbsg3qdc7JhYXSb6MG2-eEycPCM23DmtabrXjR4tux5m9IDwBicesjZE70lTHqtjtGC9hO9sBogCmDEy7fp66oQVPWIKrxcR6fwqO3vky_i7xAOyGnLnQjvfej8SNEGgEJ5zbBkBMdSL5aJOMjpWeWyZ0.yvkCTY1-yJXKYm0izBb3vFel6IxqupdPBqozGq52pQg&dib_tag=se&keywords=gpd+pocket&qid=1739055257&sprefix=gpd+pock,aps,204&sr=8-8&th=1

@simon @DavidGoldfield @mcourcel @modulux Nope. I had one of the early GPD's, and the battery exploded after like six months. Never again.

@fastfinge @DavidGoldfield @mcourcel @modulux Also I don't know for sure about that laptop, but I know a lot of their stuff is pretty easy to disassemble, so replacing the battery shouldn't be hard in the worst case.

@simon @DavidGoldfield @mcourcel @modulux Right, but when I want to take my laptop apart, I already have a Framework 16 LOL. The thing that makes me want a BT Speak is Linux that's actually supported and accessible and maybe works most of the time.
