“Which one, who was that?” Trump asked.

“The founder of Binance,” Collins continued. “He has involvement in your own family’s crypto business.”

“The recent one? I believe we’re talking about the same person, because I do pardon a lot of people,” Trump said. “I don’t know. He was recommended by a lot of people.

same CPU, likely a different TDP setting.

This comparison uses hp G1a but I imagine it wouldnt be too far off from GMKtec: https://www.phoronix.com/review/framework-desktop-linux/9
