@ruff, your point have clear message and I agree with it and with what @muon and @reC added to it. Big tech treat myself sort of like I am already settled down in old people’s home, so there is everything I need, daily/nightly program, same bothering, but proofed music/approach and game.
Partly, I was referring to linked Product/Process Change Notification where it says: “Resulting in findings with some of our products that were damaged on their way to the customer. Hence Gemalto reduces the number of modules per reel from 500pcs. to 400pcs. Given this change the minimum order quantity of said products changes from 1.000 pcs. to 800 pcs. Customers are kindly asked to adjust order volumes to this granularity.” So “what they do” means deciding how many they are going to order, how many of those will be “alive”, just 95% or even less. In general there are many more things to be coordinated with BOM supply, production, etc. chain. As said, not familiar with every step, but aware it is very complex task and project that I believe in and wish (by eventually buying another phone from Purism) to succeed, with taking needed time.
In my age, it doesn’t matter any more to complete marathon run under five hours but (just) to see finish line and run through it somehow, but with joy. And, as said here many times before, besides healthy environment and many more hours of regular training with some errors/bad days, a lot of patience … to finally get to there (finishing line) without any self-injuries and by respecting all of the rules that apply (marathon registration fee inclusive) … is needed. Let us help Purism stay focused on to succeed on very first half marathon race, at the first place (without saying I’m actually helping much, just trying to). Ah, to myself, now is time for silence (even though there is new day just coming).
