battery life for Linux is not some grand project, it's just support and setup of existing kernel drivers, typically at the distro level - which is why it's already there for some setups
This is essentially why I'm confused. All he's doing is setting up pre-existing drivers, any chimp with access to ChatGPT can do that.
I don't see that he's bringing anything noteworthy to the table, but I've repeatedly heard people talk as though he's going to bring better battery life to Linux through omarchy.
Genuine question, what is it about DHH that makes you think he can move the needle on battery life for Linux?
My understanding is that he's a giant in the enterprise software space, I don't see how that would give him any clout in the hardware space.

he mentioned good numbers before, but of course you may want to wait for reviews
