While I like what framework is doing, given that Linus Sebastian is a investor of the company, I don't think I can support them.
At least not until the sexual harassment investigation that he promised would be released is finally released and shows no wrongdoing. Although I suspect it was a line it's never going to get released.
I think he invested $250k, which my gut says is a very small part of what the company got?
Don't buy a computer if you don't need it obviously, but consider that other companies likely have bad/harmful investors too. Bad people benefiting from a good thing isn't a reason to hate on the good thing

Despite this replacement coming with a slightly weaker 7840HS, Iāve measured 100.8Ā°C at peak while playing a game ā and as high as 92.5Ā°C one day when I was just writing a story in a web browser.
