Come to think of it, painting the actual conspiracy as an absurdist cartoon villain character’s wild machination that was ultimately defeated – was Roger Rabbit an op?

Disclosing a rejection of Taylor Swift right up front will absolutely close a lot of specific kinds of doors.

Holy shit daaaaaamn, this is awesome, thanks! Please make this a post! Saved.

I sincerely would enjoy seeing your list.

Oh boy, here I go killing again.

The under panel aluminum gets really hot, which in turn dissipates into my leg muscles while it is on my lap. I guess that makes the heat dissipation good (enough?) since the CPU doesn’t get worse than 170°F. It is honestly just pretty awful.

I definitely don’t know. I have had no opportunity to physically use a Framework laptop. I am only speaking about what I know from the images on their website.

Or do you mean the MacBook Air? These later model Airs don’t have fans, and that means the aluminum gets really, really hot. The CPU temperature readouts get up to 170°F. It’s bonkers.

I really want one because I am tired of my lemon of a 2022 M2 MacBook Air and even more tired of paying money to a corporation that does basically everything in its power to remind me that I don’t own my own hardware. I had to have the goddamn logic board replaced on this thing, and Apple refused to let me retain the original part, even though the SSD chips were perfectly fine. I unknowingly botched my time machine backup and forewent the $100 bench backup, and now some five weeks worth of my data is gone forever because they wouldn’t let me keep the original part because “muh policy”.

The only thing stopping me from purchasing a Framework laptop is that the fan intake vents are on the bottom of the device, which makes using the laptop on my lap not very doable.

Also, I am pretty over aluminum as a material for devices that I have to touch with my skin for long periods of time. I would prefer carbon fiber.
