Max<p>okay, so my official verdict is I'm not recommending <a href="https://im-in.space/tags/FrameworkLaptop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FrameworkLaptop</span></a> at this point in time.</p><p>it's cool, it's got fun features and stuff, but it's also the most unreliable piece of tech I've ever owned, and I've owned multiple sets of cheap bluetooth headphones.</p><p>in less than a year of me owning it, it had:</p><ul><li>ports randomly failing until reboot</li><li>CPU frequency randomly dropping to 1Ghz until reboot</li><li>liquid metal leaking and causing boot failures</li><li>keyboard keys getting stuck and/or out of place</li><li>random non-persistent boot failures where it just sits with a black screen for a couple of minutes</li><li>whatever the fuck is happening right now where it corrupted my FS and fails to boot even from a live USB</li></ul><p>I do want to believe (although I find it hard, with how they didn't even got around to replacing the faulty liquid-metal-thing in laptops they already sold) that <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@frameworkcomputer" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>frameworkcomputer</span></a></span> will focus on reliability and longevity instead of chasing the AI hype or whatever, but right now I very much can't recommend this.</p>
