I think people are missing the value proposition of framework here - pcmasterrace builders like PCs because you can access all the components and swap out or upgrade parts that are outdated or broken and you can customize your build. Board

No, not at all. The whole idea is modularity, upgradabilty and access. Most technies people know how to swap out an nvme or ram, basically any ifixit level repair. Board level repairs is a whole other ballpark and the need is reduced greatl

See my above comments - I've had board level repairs done before and they aren't cheap. Best case scenario with the framework modular design, you save $50 and get back an old part that is prone to additional failures. With modular

1) Framework provides schematics to repair shops that ask 2) Modularity keeps the cost of individual components so low that board-level repair isn't nearly as important. What would Louis charge me? $350 at least for shipping and time a

For the vast majority of even techie people - repairable means swapping out a modular part, not soldering or replacing chips on the mainboard.

Not joking at all - Based on that data we're talking maybe a maximum 2x increase due to the age factor when looking at relative risk. That would still mean Teslas are 5x less likely to cause a fire when adjusting. Maybe you need to rea

I'm not sure the age of a car has all that much to do with its ability to catch fire unless we are talking cars from before the 70s (when the flame retardant standards were set). Certainly not a 10x change in the past couple decades. E

Black holes do not emit gamma rays... black holes emit nothing (aside from potentially hawking radiation). Matter around supermassive black holes can give off gamma rays but planet massed black holes are just as likely to cause gamma as pla

Framework has said they are going to release new hinges that are sturdier, and they are extremely easy to swap out. The benefit of the Framework is that any kinks can be easily fixed... still kinks are annoying.
