Or don't buy from manufacturers that do this
It's often too late to realize it's non repairable. When reviews first come out, no one reviews the drm on components. Even those teardown sites only cover how hard it is to open up a device but don't cover if a part is drm'd until moths or years later. Because there is no way to know until 3rd party parts come out and they don't work.
I'm buying framework which explicitly has repair as a goal
Yea, but what if you already have a laptop from such a manufacturer?
Good luck soldier!
You will eventually have to replace it when there are no replacement batteries. Get one that's focused on repairability. Then you can basically keep it forever
Yes that's a good tip, but the OP comment was focused on people who already have a laptop
