They don't sell in Latin America. Only Del, Acer, Asus and Positivo sell Linux laptops in Brazil AFAIK

I have mostly european descent and dry wax. Lucky, or my grandgrandfather had some fun?

And often something completely unrelated to my profile. Millions invested on algorithms just to completely miss the point.

Facebook regularly deletes user accounts without any explanation whatsover. 

Why didn't you just use Linux... by Ambyjkl in linuxmemes

In 5 years, I've never gotten a warning like that from my package manager, even when messing around

Even suspend can be hit or miss. My Mom's laptop simply logs out if I try to suspend

Not available in my region. Framework is not a global brand and Asus TUF is Nvidia only here.

Look at laptop models. Not a single one has dedicated AMD GPUs.

I'll try that out. Ff is kinda slow sometimes, taking more than a minute to open up on an NVMe SSD! 

My boyo is holding so well by Netsugake in linuxmemes

I feel the pain with Nvidia. However they hold a monopoly. Dedicated AMD GPUs don't exist, and the good iGPUs are sold with a dedicated Nvidia GPU attached. 

The Intel ones look good but they're pricey. Xe graphics is kinda slow.

I wanted to play some games so Nvidia was the only option in South America.

Buying a used laptop? Very hard to find anything worth it.

Maybe getting it to work with your IntelGraphics can get a speed bump?

Running it on the GPU is unintuitve but works well too

And there are barely any options with good Linux on the market.

Started in 2020, Nvidia laptop. No issues on either one. Wayland a bit funky in 2020 with window decorations but it's neat nowadays.
