lmao of course it’s gonna be soldered in to push you to higher tiers
Comment on Dell and Lenovo may limit mid-range laptops to 8GB DDR5 RAM in response to rising memory prices

Soldered in, or upgradeable at least? The former would be a huge reason to never buy the newest gen of laptops.

Those soldered low RAM ones are going to be in the dump a lot sooner.

They do not care about the planned obsolescence of it all.

They absolutely do care. It’s a bonus for them.

Excellent. Hopefully some of them will have hardware that supports #openBSD that I can pick up for pennies on the dollar. I believe the #thinkpad x1 carbon is already on soldered RAM. I can see many in the #Linux crowd stand to profit handsomely from this, given their much more broad hardware support 😜
