This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

My old guy's battery is still fine (for reference, fine means about 2-4 hours of screen time, which is about the same as new) but that's only because I keep it locked to 60% and use it as a desktop. I also would want to upgrade to a framework but god they're pricey. Especially the dGPU ones.

this is what I used to get, between 2-5 hours depending on how light to work and strict the power restrictions are. yes I wish to get the framework 16 with dGPU, I really need to save so much cash, so pricey. its the only laptop worth its cost though. so capable and I love the idea that I can baby it(with the usual repairs like battery and keyboard/trackpad) and the internals can be shelved or repurposed.

my friend got one before me. Imagine how jealous I am and gushing in fanboy-ish enthusiasm.

Any friends of mine who got a framework 16 would be at risk of losing an expensive laptop
