My old laptop's replacement battery has attempted a self-ignition. I think it's time to start saving up for a new laptop. I'd love to have a #Framework 16. I just don't know if I can stand having a CPU with "AI" in it's name. A real mobile workstation would be sweet though. My current laptop can't play 4K video smoothly, lol.
It's possible if the #SteamFrame comes out first I might crack and get it instead. Running #ArchLinux on my face sounds like the apex.

@unfa@mastodon.social Hardly possible to find a laptop that doesn't have AI somewhere in the name today, let alone in the marketing. The one I got the other day apparently has a "copilot key" and an "AI key". (I do not know what the difference is, but I'm running Linux on it now so it doesn't matter.)

@unfa@mastodon.social - the first gen Framework 16 did not have AI in the name and is still pretty sweet. If you're coming from such an old daily driver, maybe get that as refurb or seconds...
