Sure thing! I won't pretend to be knowledgeable about the differences in hardware between like a Lenovo and a Framework. I actually intended to buy a Lenovo but I was shopping for a made-for-Linux laptop when Lenovo happened not to be selling them (they had been before and I guess they are again now). The appeal of the Framework was entirely the upgradability

I'm also making the slow transition from Apple to Linux, and I (relatively) recently bought a Framework 13. I went with kind of a minimum-specs loadout, figuring I didn't really know what I was getting into and I could upgrade it later (the primary selling point of Framework). I've been satisfied with running Fedora/Gnome on it for several months. I get the impression that the distro is more important than the hardware in terms of having a comfortable MacOS-to-Linux experience. But because Framework explicitly supports Fedora, I felt like it was a smaller step away from the walled garden, "it just works" experience of being a Mac user team just going straight to a distro and manufacturer that was likely to require a lot more manual setup and knowledge.

I use it to wake my computer up when the display is off.

The word choice in this headline is misleading. "Admits" implies that the newly revealed information is true. He didn't "admit" it was a ruse. He "claimed" it was a ruse.

Very Tall Bart is one of my favorite YouTube channels. I recommend it if you're into nonsensical potty humor generated by editing mostly the Simpsons and Prager U videos.

I hope the typo above doesn't prevent anyone interested from discovering this excellent genre. It's "Explosions in the Sky".

Tenforward has been one of the biggest unexpected delights over the last year or so since migrating to Lemmy from Reddit

This was what I thought the OP was talking about at first. It took me a minute to remember that urban legend from the 90s.

I travel with a couple of binder clips for exactly this reason. I never thought of using a hanger with clips though!
