I expect the wifi will not work but will everything else work if you install trisquel? Thank you.
I looked at their computers once and:
A: they dont use coreboot or libreboot
B: they don't have a libre wifi card.
Its probably better to get novacustom.
it least that has dasharo and intel me is disabled.
Don't take advice from people on Trisquel.info about where to buy computers, people are destroying the computers of people trying to use free software and avoiding proprietary firmware, and they are misleading them to make purchases at fake companies.
Use a reputable source of information fsf.org
Don't listen to these people, they constantly mislead others.

Its very hard to read what you just wrote, it feels like you typed a run on sentence and I couldn't understand ot/
Also btw, no one is misleading anyone.
No one should use a computer with a backdoor that has network stack.
That is why Coreboot + intel me disabled was something I suggested.
FSF.org's info is incomplete btw too.
Canoeboot devices are considered libre by the FSF anyhow.
No need to stick to gnuboot stuff only.
I should also add, technoethical is on the list and shouldn't be trusted because they have been known to have bad practices of not sending the goods people ordered for a long time now.
Aka, you pay them and they don't ship your product. Do not trust such a seller!
Vikings is however trustworthy as is libiquity assuming they still exist
EDIT: seems libiquity.com is gone but vikings.net is still around.

Wi-Fi will indeed not work. I bet neither will Bluetooth. I do not know about the state of the support AMD integrated graphics by libre drivers. People advising for AMD usually use non-free drivers. Years ago, I remember people on this forum who could not even get a proper resolution with that brand of GPU.
I recently installed Trisquel 12 on a 13th-generation Intel processor and its integrated UHD graphics work well out of the box... although, out of curiosity, I temporarily added the binary firmware and the frame rate on SuperTuxKart was visibly higher. https://libre.thinkpenguin.com/gnu-linux/penguin-t4-gnulinux-laptop sold by ThinkPenguin, which cares about the freedom of its users, includes a 13th-generation Intel processor and is promised to entirely work (Wi-Fi included) out of the box with Trisquel, that ThinkPenguin can install for you.

Maybe a free software wifi card would be an option?
> AMD integrated graphics
To my knowledge amd graphics can be a problem in terms of free software support. Part of why I asked my question.

Part of why I wanted to know more about the tuxedo notebook are its npu options. My understanding is that there are not many notebook gnu linux npu options. And I do not know if tuxedo's npu option is a free software one or if trisquel supports npus?

System76 sells some laptops with the Intel Meteor Lake processors, including their Lemur Pro laptop. Meteor Lake has NPU silicon built in (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meteor_Lake, see section on NPU). The advantage over Tuxedo's AMD offering would be you would get Coreboot, the ability to easily disable IME, and it uses Intel Arc graphics which I've discovered work with the Linux-libre kernel without needing proprietary firmware.
And NovaCustom is selling their V54 and V56 laptops and a mini-computer NUC with Meteor Lake chips, and with Dasharo Coreboot, HAP-bit disablement of IME, Intel Arc graphics, etc. I'm using one of their new NUC mini-computers at work now with Linux-libre, seems pretty good and fast.
I haven't tried running a local copy of any AI stuff yet so I can't comment on its speed or ability in that area. I'll get around to testing that eventually. @Magic Banana found a few free software AI things to run on a computer not too long ago - I think Mistral is a free large language model that @Magic Banana was discussing: https://trisquel.info/en/forum/do-you-know-list-ai-software-being-free-software#comment-177728
We had some other discussions recently that I recall, where @Magic Banana discussed the results of trying out various free local LLM's, but it looks to me like those posts may have gotten deleted when one of our recent people self-deleted all their own posts. At least I can't find the posts with a forum search right now. Maybe @Magic Banana can post a list again of some of the free, locally run LLMs.
I am a translator!
On the Novacustom laptop I bought without wifi, I installed https://www.thinkpenguin.com/gnu-linux/wireless-n-dual-band-m2-ngff-combo-card-tpe-m2ncrd, it works fine.
My only small disappointment with this laptop is that before boot (in UEFI shell, or in Guix system when I type the deciphering password for GRUB), the keyboard layout does not match the visible layout (qwerty instead of azerty).
It looks like the thread was indeed deleted. I was (locally) playing with distilled DeepSeek models such as R1, which made the news when it was released, ~1 year ago. I did so in Alpaca: https://jeffser.com/alpaca
It would be interesting to know if, still with no binary firmware, an Intel Meteor Lake processor can more rapidly answer than what I experienced on my ~5-year-old laptop (with a 10th generation processor). If I remember well, R1-14B was taking half an hour to answer a particular question, about "what relations of recurrence can be solved with generating functions".
I wanted to buy a laptop with a bigger screen, 17
but didn´t find one in the free software/hardwary companies.
So I bought one at Tuxedo:
TUXEDO InfinityBook S 17 Gen6
CPU: 11th Gen Intel i7-11390H (8) @ 5.000GHz
GPU: Intel UHD Graphics
Memory: 2544MiB / 64097MiB
CPU: 8 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-11390H @ 3.40GHz
Memory: 62,6 GiB of usable RAM
Graphics: Mesa Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics
It is a strong one, but was expensive with 2 SSDs.
I don´t need WiFi, I am using Ethernet
I can switch off IME (intel management engine), that was important for me.
So my only problem is the proprietary boot.
But what should I do??
This was in the beginning of my journey with free software...
Free as in freedom, NOT PRICE (not buying it)
all lies
24/7
fake people are just as worthwhile as the robots
the whole mass media is entirely 100% composed of lies, and by both people and bots, and yet we are supposed to believe in the light in the dark proposed in the context of trisquel.info/and "free software" which these people couldn't appropriately represent in any case (they are anti-freedom)
