Still only single channel memory? I was hoping they'd add LPCAMM so you could get the full performance out of the machine.

    Honestly I just want the backlit keeb. Battery life is already good enough, I wouldn't trade perf for more life.

    I'd also swap for an OLED monitor👀, if they release that at some point

    I find this whole thing blown way out of proportion and sorta the kind of thing that makes the world worse instead of better.

    Giving $600 out of $215k and a laptop to two people that seem to suck does not make the company a nazi-loving brand. I agree that I wish Framework did draw lines along political ideology, but it's far from the Mullvad CEO funding the entire nazi party of their country. This is a purity test, it seems, driven by people who are so far removed from the real world that they'd rather get mad at the small repairable laptop company instead of Amazon or Microsoft or AMD - all of which support far worse people with far more money and arguably do far more harm than good in the world right now.

    Like if we ostracize every single person and company that does 1% bad we will have no allies for the changes that must come within the next couple of decades.

    Idk. I find anyone throwing stones as confidently as you are at people who arent plainly and obviously evil to be suspicious and definitely not allies to the real cause of societal progression. Which is a shame because I want you in the movement and want the movement to be successful, but does this strategy really benefit the cause. Do we have an overabundance of laptop manufacturers with 100% moral purity, such that sending the signal to framework that they're unrecoverably evil is a good thing? Because I definitely don't think so, but maybe you do.

    You're gonna need to provide some context for this if you expect me to care.

    Until the CEO resigns, I'm not interested.

    In the community post he advises that he, and others, looked into the controversy and decided that based on the moderation changes that they could work with Hyperland going forward. They also posted all of this publicly and discussed it rationally with their community. All of their donations are publicly available and they communicated the intent behind the donations: to help support ALL open source.

    They didn't play favorites, they didn't backpedal on their reasoning and they showed transparency while supporting open source. I don't understand the controversy here?

    They managed not to name fashtech when talking about Framework. Impressive!
