During the hackathon at a conference in Oslo last week, while I was sitting outside, my Framework laptop kept suspending frequently, though at quite random times.

Managed to get it to wake up, log in, and mask the suspend target with systemctl, and all was good. Decided to figure out what the likely cause was and looked at the Framework forum.

Guess what my Framework laptop was standing on?

I don't usually praise Y takes, but this one is rather excellent.

The last layer of ice in the local park is hopefully disappearing soon ☀️
