I have a continuous urge to buy a lot of EOL laptops… I must resist.

Businesses love using mini-PCs. I’m keeping a lookout for expanding my server and a TV connected device for emulation, game streaming, etc.
I get a bunch from people that don’t know what to do with them. I nuke the hard drive and then donate, these days. If I can’t nuke it, I take the platters out and destroy those. Haven’t come across with one with SSD yet, but it’s only a matter of time.
Before, Ibused to try to install different versions of Linux and just fix whatever issue the laptop had. Coolest thing I did was replace the charging port on one.
Windows: repeated acts of footgun
Linux: …oooookay?
I’m deeply sleep deprived and rather embarrassed that I didn’t equate “footgun” with “shooting oneself in the foot” until I looked it up.
Bloodcurdling screams emanates from the Windows users
“Hm? Did something happen?”
More incoherent screaming
“…Nah, sounds normal enough.”
Personally speaking, I have yet to encounter an operating system that didn’t illicit bloodcurdling screams.
From here, it sounds like someone trying to make a local user account.
This Linux Mint Cinnamon is fucking delicious!
