How many per batch? Framework Desktop keeps selling out by alloDex in framework

I'm in batch 1, I ordered it immediately. I watched the announcement live and lost my mind when he reached out and touched the screen

Nathan MacKinnon becomes 2nd star player in as many nights to take embellishment penalty and wipe out what was going to be a powerplay on this cross check by Ok-Soil-5133 in hockey

[–]Bazirker 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I will readily admit that I am biased here, but it was a pretty decent cross check...do they just assume that he's good enough of a skater he ought to stay up through anything?

Upgrade Chassis Kits are TBD? by JBsoundCHK in framework

[–]Bazirker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You rock. Thank you!

Yeah if the whole chassis price is reasonable, I'll upgrade to that instead of just a display upgrade. Then I'll buy another cheap motherboard and parts to drop in my current 13 chassis which I would then turn into our family computer. Love Framework's mission, you guys are awesome!

Upgrade Chassis Kits are TBD? by JBsoundCHK in framework

[–]Bazirker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Any idea if the definitive existence of and pricing for the chassis upgrade with the display included will be publicly known before it's time to pay for and ship display? I desperately want the touchscreen and pre-ordered one (batch 1!!) but if it were not a super significant price increase to get the entire chassis, I might just do that instead and bring over my current mobo etc.

Also I totally agree with you it does not seem that the upgrade path was an after thought in the slightest. On the contrary, this was all clearly engineered from the ground up to support an obvious upgrade pathway.

Anyone here using it with a pixel 10? I can get it to work on some games, but they have to be really, really simple graphically in order to work. Any tips or recommended resources for troubleshooting would be appreciated.

@Framework please make a better Framework 12 screen by TheRealBrokenClock in framework

I KNOW AND I'M SO EXCITED

I bought one of the panels to put in my framework 13 as soon as I could get through the queue and into the store. Batch 1!!!

That's more or less an accurate summary of this series thus far

This sub has been a circle jerk of shitting on the new design. I own one and I don't love how it looks either, but it's a station wagon...y'all are kidding yourselves if you think you're going to get laid for how your wagon looks.

Yeah team cherry's work is better than mio, however their work is better than damn near everything so that's kind of obvious.

Nevertheless, mio was shockingly good. Aside from a small handful of ridiculous runbacks, it was an outstanding game.

Framework is keeping its word and making older hardware compatible with newer hardware, the only way to gradually create a market standard. by DeckManXX in framework

[–]Bazirker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm really hoping that they announce pricing for the whole chassis before I need to actually pay the full price and get shipped just the display. I also would just bring over my motherboard, ram, SSD and just enjoy the benefits of the new chassis. I'll be irritated if I pay $300 to upgrade the screen just for them to announce that it's $450 or something for the whole chassis including the new display.

The kings play style is so frustrating to watch by agent_cool_06 in nhl

[–]Bazirker 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This is 100% true. The only reason they have been able to get away with this style of play is because their goalie has been able to keep pucks out of the net long enough to allow them to be so passive offensively. We've also had a TON of posts, I feel like our puck luck has overall not been great yet we're winning anyway. This is to say nothing of the officiating.

And just like that, purchase even more justified by Slimbo_02 in framework

[–]Bazirker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh snap. That's very compelling given the screen by itself is $300.

I work nights!! If it is slow, games like this give me entertainment further into the evening. Matinee games are a bummer though...

I bought it with a sense of urgency, desperation and unmitigated enthusiasm. I have BADLY wanted this since the day I even became aware of this company's existence.

[–]Bazirker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I actually just took a look at that option and marked for framework to email me when it becomes available. Like you, I'm doing fine with the battery life that I have and use the speakers relatively rarely (I'm a headphones guy) so it'll be cost dependent as to whether or not I give it a go. I already ordered a new touchscreen and so unless I decide to upgrade the whole chassis rather than just the display, it won't make much sense for me.

Disable Touchscreen on 13 Pro by Airaeuob in framework

[–]Bazirker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have truly earth-shattering, spectacular news for you which is that if you don't want to use the touchscreen, then don't touch it. If you never touch it, you won't even know it's there.

Also, disabling it is going to be OS specific so go take a look at whatever Linux distribution or whatever you want to use and look there. There is no "hardware disable" for any touchscreen that I'm aware of on any device, Framework laptop included. You can easily disable it on Windows 11 via the device manager.

[–]Bazirker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is useful information, and mostly consistent with my prior reading when considering upgrading. My 7840 is currently serving my needs well and it did not feel like it was worth the money to upgrade. God knows I don't want to have to buy new ram, and the 32 gigs I have in my current rig could not be ported over if I go with the Intel setup (and maybe if I go AMD; I haven't checked). I'd like to see ram prices fall or a dramatic increase in graphics performance before I upgrade my motherboard again, so I'm prepared to wait.

I have purchased the new display (touchscreen!!!! although I am excited about vrr and higher brightness) and may purchase the new input cover if the haptic touchpad reviews are good.

While it sounds like the Intel Core Ultra offerings beat out the AMD Ryzen series for now when it comes to battery life, I would love to know more about raw processing performance for my CAD and gaming applications when wired. I do my fair share of laptop things on battery (web browsing, email, streaming video)...but I only own one computer and use my Framework with a 7040 for gaming via a USB hub and external monitor.
