You could acquire a pretty cheap PC for Linux it runs on a potato. Try an electrical scrap heap nearby that you can fossick from or a friend with an old, unused system in storage (even a cheap $20 retro PC from your local marketplace?) to acquire an old retro system. You might not even need a new screen depending what connections your existing screens/TV has and if you could use a cheap adapter and cable from the thrift store.
Linux runs on basically any retro PC and laptop excluding some annoying wifi chips that need planning before the install if you don't have ethernet. Some really old tech may also require specific distributions that still offer support too.
Machines with a 32bit CPU you will want to confirm beforehand if your chosen distribution still offers a supported 32bit install image and retro PC's with obscure expansion cards that perhaps were never supported. This is likely moving into vintage collectors territory though and you would have to be pretty lucky now to find a machine like that super cheap and working.
In Australia (and around the world if you are streaming online) triple j is the absolute best for new music. It's a public run radio station directly aimed at young people in Australia but some of us old farts still like listening to new music.
I switched to wayland since arch had manual intervention on the latest update for kwin-x11 I decided it was time to take the plunge.
So far it's actually amazing. In two days of gaming I've had a great experience and OBS has been awesome. I particularly like the pipewire handling of OBS over the x11 window capture.
I also went through the wayland and nvidia arch wiki pages before I started up my game and it looks like everything is now implemented by the nvidia drivers. I'm happy nvidia might finally be catching up, though, I won't hold my breath as it still looks a little like the absolute bare minimum.
