The latest episode of the Fedora Podcast (going live in about half an hour), the team will be talking with the folks from Slimbook about the new Fedora Slimbook laptop, it’s a great chance to clear any doubts about it.

tell me I did not just look this thing up and see a barrel jack power port 🤢
my 2017 laptop charges by USB-C, this hardware looks gorgeous in every other way but the only excuse for a barrel jack is if you need to move more than 100 watts, and even that last holdout for the barrel jack is dated
It can charge by USB-C apparently, but the barrel jack is still there 😔
barrel jacks are less likely to break, I've had laptops with barrel jack charging ports that are still working for 15 years but I've had two malfunctioning USB-C ports in phones that were less than 4 years old.
Is that really a fair comparison? Due to both usage and battery capacity you would probably do way more connector insertions on a phone than on a laptop in the same span of time
I use both USB c charging and barrel jack charging for my labtop
Anyway this things useless to me as it has nvidia graphics
