That’s awesome, back in my day, we had to spit in our homemade fleshlights to get the slop.

I have no idea what point you’re trying to get across but I just got back from shopping for a laptop for my college kid and pretty much all of them had a slop button

I’m really happy with my ASUS Zenbook 14 (16GB memory, 512GB SSD, Intel Core Ultra 7 255H), which I got for $700, in case you’re still looking for a recommendation. Absolutely worth it IMO, though I’m running Linux, so the Copilot key is mapped to the compose key.

Went with an Acer. Best keyboard, tiny screen borders for a fairly compact 16” screen, 32G, 2TB …. I forget which CPU, we looked at so many.
The big question is battery life, and we decided to risk it. For a claimed 9.5 hours battery life when new, will it still get through a realistic full day of classes for the next four years. Hopefully

I’ve had good experiences with Acer with previous laptops, so that was probably a good choice. Best of luck to your kid!

If you are still looking frame.work I didn’t see any ai slop button on these.

I might consider that for myself, next time I need one, but the kid is not a techie. He needs something that just works, with anything he may encounter , for at least 4 years. Most damning of all he probably needs to be able to game, and is not interested in having to figure out extra steps

They use AI to translate the website, which is great, but the German looks awful at times.
