"A frequent request from the #FreeBSD community and fan base is a curated list of laptops validated to run FreeBSD out of the box. To this end, we've recently begun discussions with one of our favorite laptop companies, Framework
Stay tuned!" (Edited out Puter from the bird site)
Nice. Use FreeBSD on your Framework as your daily driver. Test the things that usually go hinky with laptops (wireless, touchpad, battery usage).
For the intel wireless, you'll use this newer driver in RELEASE and CURRENT : https://wiki.freebsd.org/WiFi/Iwlwifi . It could use a deep dive. A tremendous amount of work has gone into getting this intel wireless interface in working order by #FreeBSD devs. It's been a priority with the foundation, too.

I really want you to sort the frame flex on the 16 screen and keyboard, and prove its modular GPU across a generation line.
There has to be some government funding for innovations in tech like this, which don't require armies of enthusiastic beta testers.
