Framework announced the Framework 13 Pro including full Linux support right from the beginning.

Some quick information about the Device:

  • will use Intel Core Ultra 300 (Panther-Lake)
  • updated Battery Design with (up to) 20h Battery life
  • custom designed Display Panel with Touch support (keeping the 3:2 aspect ratio)
  • LPCAMM2 for upgradable/replacable RAM without compromising on Speed/Low Power of LPDDR5X
  • milled Aluminium Unibody chassis
  • Full Linux support right from the start (including Firmware update via LVFS, Fingerprint Reader, etc.)
  • Haptic Touchpad
  • and all the repairability features Framework is known for

You can watch their YouTube Video for a quick summary:

I was looking for a new laptop to replace my old Lenovo Yoga 370 and initially disregarded the Framework 13 because of some downsides (low Battery Life, bad Camera, etc.) and was looking to go with one of the following devices:

  • HP Elitebook X g1a
  • the new Dell XPS 14
  • Asus Expertbook PM5 G2

or also a MacBook pro. I am using Linux since more then 10 years and never touched MacOS at all. So I was not sure if MacOS would work for me. But this announcement made it easy: It will be a Framework 13 Pro with Intel X7 358H!

Donating to that shell script collection of this weird right-wing millionaire guy from Ruby on Rails.

Here comes the Nazi Bar analogies.

Now everyone posting in this thread which promotes Framework has become a Nazi by the transitive property of Nazihood. Now your family are Nazis with Nazi pets who eat from a pet store that is run by a Nazi (on account of supporting Nazis by selling them pet food, you see) that banks at a Nazi bank in a Nazi financial system run by a Nazi country on a Nazi planet.

...and just like that, every person and thing in the world has become a Nazi. Thanks a lot FRAMEWORK, if only we'd listened to the toxic trolls and avoided being associated with any person on the off chance that we'd catch their 4th person inherited nazihood.

/s, obviously.

These same people better never wear nike, addidas, drive a bmw or volkswagon, ford, or …

Dorks just virtue signaling

Acting self-righteous and outraged feels good.

Some people haven't learned that this doesn't mean that it is good.
