this is the model that's currently fanciest / most-modern but still well-supported by libreboot.
the boot process does require blobs.
it takes DDR4 RAM, which is frustrating as we have DDR5 we'd like to reuse, but oh well. desire is the origin of suffering. DDR5 isn't well-supported by free bootload stuff anyway, we're told.
the plan is to then partition it with a netbsd root, a separate home, and then a separate blank partition where the nix-netbsd partition will go when research has advanced that far
we wouldn't really have chosen to buy a laptop at this juncture, all else being equal, but the replacement battery in our framework 13 has been even more spicy-pillow than the one we replaced it with earlier this year, soooooooo we're prepared to call their alleged repairability not all it's cracked up to be :/
