Israel has had angry neighbors, who want to kill them since before the state even existed.

A different analysis from an expert in international law. https://lieber.westpoint.edu/exploding-pagers-law/
Combatants tend to violently fight back, when you try to round them up. They also tend to hide among civilians in case of terrorist militia like Hezbollah.
Send enough money to Ukraine to buy off all Russian soldiers.
Ukrainians are far ahead of you. There are several mine clearing tractors operating already.
That was not the US government, but private initiatives.

We will know. Hamas and other militant groups have published their martyred fighters about a year after the wars ended in the past.
Ice pack on the neck and behind your knees helps if needed.
Happy sweating :)
Also get some latex gloves. Touching with them is a unique and great sensual experience.
If you end up doing this, you should write a blog post about how it went after a couple of months. It’s an intriguing idea.
The ROG Ally X has 12 GB of RAM. That could be an issue if you run lots of VMs, docker images, big databases, etc.
1x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C support DisplayPort™ / power delivery

Connectivity for external devices seems good. Although it doesn’t say what resolutions are supported for external displays.
The Nazi flag used a 45° rotated swastiska. However horizontal swastikas were also commonly used by the Nazis.
Farmework makes me feel warm and fuzzy so I should give them money?
Yes, that’s what they’re going for. A personal computer is a machine people spend a lot of time with and develop an emotional attachment to. People can buy this laptop and gain status among their peers by supporting the ideas of repairability, being against planned obsolescence, for Linux, and open standards. Owning this laptop can make you feel as part of a movement for a better world.
Sure their claims might not fully hold up to scrutiny. However that doesn’t matter much if you’re emotionally invested in the ideas.
You don’t have to give them money as their product doesn’t seem to be for you. Your priorities are different.
I myself use a MacBook Air with a big ass thunderbolt dock on my desk attached to it. Apple as a corporation sucks for many reasons, but they make some good products.
Overall Framework laptops reminds me of the Fairphone.
Would be interested to see where you got those numbers
About 40,000 killed total in Gaza. 15,000 militants killed. That’s 25,000 civilians killed. These are estimates.
It will take years until we get good numbers on this.
Czechia has been a pretty strong supporter of Israel going back to delivering arms for their war of independence.
All excellent points. The trajectory of the current laptop market is the MacBook. One system on a chip with integrated RAM and an SSD. These are light, high performance, and long battery life. Repairability is difficult and upgrades harder. This type of laptop is good enough for most people and sells great.
Having a highly configurable machine is the opposite of the MacBook. There’s probably a market for the Framework laptop. It fully leans into being configurable and repairable. That gives the user a bigger sense of control. They don’t feel dependent on huge corporations. It’s not just a feeling either. Other companies don’t want their customers to repair or exchange anything on their laptops and will void the warranty if you do it. Framework is the opposite as it encourages their customers to assemble and replace parts themselves.
Customization has become huge in the PC market, especially among gamers. Framework is smart to try and fill this individualist niche. The marketing works well, just like you said. I find the programmable LED modules quite charming for example. The option to buy the laptop as a kit for me to assemble myself also sounds fun.
Empowerment is what the marketing sells to their customers. Few people really need this product, but many find it desirable.
Why?
Replacing a main board like in your example won’t be financially attractive for Framework laptops. With a new laptop you would also get a new and better screen.
Framework laptops shine in customizability and repairability.
What would you even do with the old motherboard and CPU? Could you even sell that?
Israel targets combatants and sometimes hits civilians as well. That’s big difference.
Hezbollah and Hamas directly target civilians.
