There are few things quite as emblematic of late stage capitalism than the concept of "planned obsolescence".

Apologies for the long wait for a response. Been trying to get back to people.

I checked out the Chromebook I have and made a post on the Gentoo form, but don't believe I'm able to do it for my particular model because of how I'm sandboxed in a subsystem of something. Could I DM you and we could chat more about sending Chrome OS to the shadow realm?

Sure, drop me a note with the details and I'll see if I can give you a hand. I'm not super expert in all the specifics of the Chromebook ecosystem, but I have good general computer/Unix skills and have hacked a couple so I know where to look for resources.

Awesome! I'll send you a DM a bit later with some details about the Chromebook when I dig through the mountain of stuff in front of me. Appreciate the help :)
