  • That's so much money. It's immensely frustrating that any assistance programs we come up with ultimately become a massive wealth transfer to big companies.

    SNAP, subsidized student loans/forgiveness, Medicaid/Medicare, etc. The market will just happily absorb the free taxpayer money and then still raise prices on everyone because of the increased demand.

  • To be fair, I'm a complete noob and don't know if what I have is too weak or overkill. I just figured that it's a 12 year old computer and might be worse than what others are using.

  • Will do, thanks! I haven't even thought about the power consumption yet. Hmm... maybe I'll do some math once a power bill comes back to bite me.

  • What is your current distro?

  • I'm not sure what this means yet, but I'll try to remember when it comes up, thanks. The PC I plan on using is fairly old - a 2013 build with a 770.

  • Self-hosting is calling to me right now... I've been watching videos on it for the last couple of nights. I fear it's too late for me.

  • Ooh, Lenovo is a much bigger deal.

  • Some companies sell Linux prebuilts, like System76, but that's pretty niche for the average person to even know to search for.

    Now, if stores like Best Buy had a section for Linux prebuilts, that would reach a lot of people.

  • Damn

  • I want to see the outcome now

  • My Vees are less than consummate, but I'm pretty happy with the result. [OC]

  • I wouldn't want to be a thatched-roof cottage around this masterpiece.
