Why not just buy one of those cheap celeron windows laptops and put Linux on it...? It's better than a Chromebook in every way.

Specifically GalliumOS. Then you've truly Ascended.

Because you can buy a thinkpad with an sandy bridge i5 instead and have it be completely functional and serviceable well into 2020. But now with the Intel AMT security risk, it's hard to recommend insecure laptops.

It's already been patched mong

I want more than 2 hours battery life without having to spend $70 for an authentic new battery.

Has it? I think it's just confirmed to be patched, but not yet released. And with manufacture backdoors, patched might as well mean "patched".

It's better to spend money on such battery than support the sick practices and consumer trends going on now. I mean, performance has quite literally barely increased in subsequent generations, only power efficiency has. So what do they do? They reduce, reduce, and reduce battery sizes, making battery life barely above what it was years ago with a 9-cell.

Well, let's just get crazy and remember NSA is in the backbone. That means no matter where you go, what you do, they have your data. It literally doesn't matter how hard you try to hide or what you do to hide or obscure it etc.... They have it. They literally do not need the Intel backdoor one way or the other.
