Good thing broadband providers have such a stellar track record of nothing but honorable and consumer-benefiting behavior. I see no reason that we can't just trust that they have our best interests at heart.

This is pure propaganda. I happen to know that this man helped out the Nazis while on a cordrazine bender!
Oh ok that makes sense.
Cool. Make sure not to get it printed in PLA. Even the heat from my Raspberry Pi Model 4 managed to warp the PLA case I made for it.
The power requirements of AM5 are a lot higher than AM4 but thats usually just a problem on the higher end chips. And compared to Intel's high end they look downright eco-friendly. 5800xt is a beast but looking down the road AM5 is the way to go. The 7600x is a solid CPU and if you get a decent motherboard then you will at the very least get the next generation AMD CPU upgrade path and hopefully the one after that too.
Main thing to look for in a motherboard I think is features, pcie layout, and then vrm quality.
On my current motherboard I was having issues with sata drives not being detected and thought I may have fried something but it turned out that some of the SATA ports were disabled if you used both M.2 slots. I also have to fiddle with the bios to get Linux to boot rather than Windows (I dual boot on separate drives). By default it always boots to Windows after a hard reset.
Cable Mod has several different adapters that would redirect the cable up rather than down that might work for you if you weren't wanting a new case anyway.
Now look see what you've done here, I'm down another Wikipedia rabbit hole!
I think it's amazing when done right.
But
Almost every time I've been to a 3d showing they have the screen adjusted wrong or in the wrong aspect ratio and it messes everything up.
I have a buddy with a home theater and a 3d projector with synchronized LCD glasses and 3d blu rays in that context are great.
You can set up the unifi network app on anything but not the DVR system. Your cheapest option is a Cloud Key.
It takes an sd card or a 2.5 inch SATA drive.
I'd love to see them push for Mastadon. They can serve as an entry point for a lot of people because for the layperson, the fediverse is an odd place that's kind of hard to understand.
If they can just be the, "hey join Firefox.social and you're in the fediverse. Here's our Fedifox app for your phone, bing bang boom." I think it could go a long way to growing the total userbase.
The stupid thing is that they could change nothing about the laptop including the price and add almost nothing to the BOM cost to add 8gb more of RAM, still make a staggering profit and avoid this criticism altogether.
Just make the base model have 16gb ram. They could probably mark it up $150 too and nobody would bat an eye. It's already too expensive, just don't sell a stupid option.
It's like a base model Cadillac only having 3 seats. Yeah maybe a lot of people can get by with it but it's a Cadillac! Why is something inferior like that even an option?
