Thank you. I’d opted out of framework a while ago, because the 13 is a bit too small, and I’ve heard the 16 has some fitting issues, which, if I got a new laptop every couple years, I’d be down to support them, but that’s not me.

And agreed about popOS, I actually landed on it because it just worked with my nvidia GPU, but if there was some partnerships or whatnot, I wouldn’t die with a new distro.

Thank you! Not sure how my DDG-fu missed Eurocom and that wiki page 😮‍💨.

I’ll take a look!

Thank you, that’s a great idea! Do you have any suggestions for where to look? EBay wasn’t my friend, but I also wasn’t specifying business.

Yep, this. In a couple places on the image at least. Thank you for connecting the lines and dots.

To answer your question, the loss meme started almost immediately after the original comic was released. It ebbs and flows in popularity, but seems to be something the internet can’t let go of. Lemmy has a particular fetish for it.
