The heatsink comes away just as smoothly if you’re looking to reapply thermal paste down the road.
Not that you ever should, since it has PTM7958 which should never need to be replaced, and gets better with age.
Thanks for the thermal pad tip fuckwit_mcbumcrumble !
Now that’s a username I can trust.
Oh I still have to watch that, referenced in freaks and geeks I believe
It’s wildly offensive and arguably shouldn’t have been made. But occasionally, there’s something funny in it.
When AMD???
The battery connector is amazing, not a ribbon cable in sight!
I got a Framework 16 a few months ago and I’ve been loving it. Super happy these guys managed to make this concept of a repairable laptop work. Though, one thing I wish is for them to make a storage case for the expansion cards. I’ve built up a little collection of them and obviously filled up all 6 slots pretty quickly. I’d like a better place to put the unused cards than in a random drawer.
Want me to 3d print one for you?
I found a few pre-made designs:

Man, I love these interactions on Lemmy. So wholesome!
I e got an i3 one of these on order and should turn up next month. I need to buy RAM and an SSD, but I think it’ll end up around £750 all in. Will replace my 11yo MacBook Air 11 inch. Mac OS just went in the wrong direction under Cook.
I have a Framework 14 for my school laptop and it really is a great little piece of hardware. Can’t wait to see what they come up with next.
Assume you mean the 13, I’ve had mine for a few months and love it too. Also really dig the refinements they’ve done with the 12 like the pogo pins and even more easily replaceable display
I have been wanting one since these were released. My old Asus laptop from 2016 is still kicking, so I guess I’ll wait till it craps the bed.
Same with my 2017 Thinkpad.
If they release one with a TrackPoint and mouse buttons, I’ll upgrade early.
I had to double-take because I thought this was their 12th model. But no, they just suck at product versioning, like every other tech company.
I’m confused, do you have an example of a laptop that uses numbers for their model number iteration rather than their screen size or feature set?
No. Which is why I said they suck at versioning, like every other tech company.
Hot damn that looks amazing, will get one for my kid.
I was a kid in high school just around the time that laptops were becoming available to the general public, somehow my parents actually managed to convince the school to buy me one. The one I had you could use to beat people to death, I certainly use mine as a weapon. We need to go back to that, I’m not interested in having an ultra thin laptop, I want a huge chunk of metal and plastic that I can use for self-defense.
