If you’re talking about the most recent news about the Terms of Service, that is a gross misreading of what they said.

From Dictionary.com:

retard

verb (used with object)

to make slow; delay the development or progress of (an action, process, etc.); hinder or impede.

“Hindering or impeding” does sound exactly like the Grand Obstructionist Party.

Musk doesn’t care anymore if he tanks Tesla, as long as he’s getting government handouts.

Gonna need you to do it again. It’s the only way to get the orange stank and Russian bugs out.

I think you’re missing a big factor: money.

When you have enough money, you can pay to not be celibate. The difference between Andrew Tate and the chuds who worship him is Tate has enough money to pay (or forcibly coerce…) women for sex. His crowd doesn’t.

I really doubt they will.

The thing to note about Framework laptops is the “starting price” is literally just the system board, the screen, standard American keyboard, and the laptop body. You have to add your own RAM, SSD, all the expansion cards, a charger, and a Windows license (if you don’t use Linux). There’s a reason why the starting cost for a Ryzen 13 is $750 and a “pre-configured” system is $1100.

Sure they’ll save some money from using a plastic body instead of an aluminum one, but that’s not the bulk of the cost, assuming they’re still committed to using the same system board form factor as the 13 & 16. I’d consider it a win if they get a fully configured 12 for sub-$800.

Also Trump’s tariffs have to be factored in for US buyers.
