You lost. It's over. Doubling down at this point (5 years in) is just pathetic. Who the fuck cares that the retard Linus invested? Yes, I hate him too. Who the fuck cares that the founder and CEO has heritage from the Indian subcontinent (despite being fully American and oh, way more successful than you or I will ever be)? And yes, I hate India too.

It is undeniable that just 10 years ago /g/ would have been jerking off furiously to even the possibility of this laptop existing. Newfags are pathetic.

Framework realized they live in a buzzword economy where knowledge of anything is extremely shallow, and if they just market the computer as being able to order spare parts or swap ports on a USB c hub, normies will gravitate to its identity as counter culture.

No, he's right! They should release schematics. The only reason not to is because they want them to buy them from THEM and not from anyone else.
That is their end goal here, to make lots of money selling expensive hardware whilst depriving would be competitors from doing the same.

The Steam Machine fills the niche of being a console replacement for your living room + you get the it just works with Steam and the Steam controller. Framework is literally just another laptop but with non-soldered RAM (kinda nice) and those meme swapable adapters.

No, it has half the RAM of the $3500 Shamework with the 358H, and it has the same amount of RAM as the Shamework that is roughly equivalent to it in specs (358H/32GB/1TB), but for half the price, and you don't need to wait months to get it.
