That #Framework laptop turned out far less durable than I hoped for. After less than two years the battery is swollen and damaged the keyboard in the process. I suspect that a major contributing factor were serious heat issues of this laptop which according to my brief search are “normal.” There are also a few minor defects.

I’m far less inclined to spend more money on Framework hardware now than before they declared their “we don’t do politics” stance. Still, it’s far too early to replace this laptop, so I guess I’m ordering replacements. Luckily, repairing is trivial.

Still: how do I prevent these issues from reoccurring? I guess I’m looking into ways of throttling that CPU on Linux…
