    > What’s the price point for getting into that sweet spot?

    In October/2024 I got my Mac studio M1 ultra with 128G, IIRC it was ~$2500. With recent prices explosion, it has certainly gotten more expensive. https://frame.work/ is selling 128G strix halo mainboard for $2700, but you have to add storage and case.

    Online only at https://frame.work AFAIK. I don't think people shelling out 2-4k for an AI training machine are concerned whether or not they can find it at a hardware store locally or online, but I may be wrong.

    In past lives, I've clung to 3.5mm jacks and battery swaps.

    Today, bluetooth works quite well for me (I love not having cables... but it sucks that performance with a microphone is trashfire). And with usb-c providing fast charging, I rarely feel like I'd benefit from battery swaps.

    Worth mentioning that battery swaps make water-resistance much much trickier to pull off. There' a real cost to battery-swappability.

    I do wish we saw something like Ara, some phone modularity & extensibility. Fairphone has some modular parts, but it doesn't feel like an open ecosystem, and the parts dont seem super designed for expansion but more just replacement. I guess maybe Framework is doing the best work, albeit in a bigger form factor space, with their Expansion Cards, which are basically just a card form factor USB-C.

    I have a Framework 13 (https://frame.work) running Arch. There are plenty of other distros if you value ease of installation. Pretty much all major desktops work fine; I use Gnome. There are a lot of options for devs, from the traditional toolset (emacs/vim, terminals, the toolsets provided by your favorite languages) to the latest in IDEs (VS Code[ium], Sublime, IntelliJ, Zed).

    Come on in, the water is nice. I've never found myself longing for anything else.

    M series is amazing.

    If you don’t want Apple, or you want to upgrade, check out Frameworks. [1]

    Really satisfying combination of quality and value for high performance laptops.

    you're right but loading the front page at http://frame.work shouldn't incur the "build your own" hit.

    e-commerce is hard. that's why we get paid so well. finding a smart teenager that you're uncle knows to setup some bullshit for $15/hr vs hiring a senior SRE at $100+/hr, when it directly leads to lost sales is a choice.
