I've pre-ordered a Framework 12 for my wife, because she's irritated with her MacBook Air almost daily. I'll put Linux Mint on it if she goes through with the order, which will make her life easier (and let her play her Steam games). It might even replace the iPad whose battery is starting to die, depending on how good the FW12's battery is while playing video.

The MacBook Air will basically pay for the Framework 12 when we resell it. 🥳

I'm grumpy this afternoon, so lets see if I can focus on #ThreeGoodThings and lighten up a bit:

1. I'm in Act 3 in Baldur's Gate 3 (#bg3), and the story continues to surprise.

2. Relatedly, I love my #Framework laptop. I got tired of Windows enshittification and saw the tariff problems coming last November. Glad I acted then rather than hem and haw.

3. One of the kids has an activity in Duluth, MN this weekend; it'll be a quick trip but I've never been there before.

Finally I was able to upgrade my framework BIOS through fwupdmgr.

But the latest BIOS update made my (Intel 12thgen) throttle the CPU on load so much that I can do barely anything worthwhile. It's even lagging when watching videos.

@frameworkcomputer what good is a repairable Laptop, if the firmware sucks? Even if you are able to fix the firmware, how long will you provide bug fixes for your older models?

After the last `dnf update` and system restart, I keep hearing the sound effect for (un)plugging of a USB drive from time to time. I don't see any other symptoms but I do see a bunch of these on the kernel log:

```
[ 4873.577447] usb 1-4: reset full-speed USB device number 2 using xhci_hcd
```

ls-usb doesn't help identify what device is that:

```
/: Bus 001.Port 001: Dev 001, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd/5p, 480M
|__ Port 004: Dev 002, If 0, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=[none], 12M
```

Anyone know? It's driving me crazy. I have work to do..

I saw this book on another post - and so went and found a copy at a 2nd hand book shop…
Looking forward to lunches at work with a cup of tea and maybe a couple of rainy Sundays at home…
