In case anyone’s wondering, it’s probably because you learn that even really old computers are still really powerful and work fine under Linux especially if you’re gonna use them as a small home server.

I use Linux Mint Cinnamon, which is very full-featured and turn-key. It is not designed to be stripped down and lightweight; it is designed to be a drop-in replacement for windows. And it still feels like greased lightning in comparison. Windows just feels like a bad product now, even if we ignore the spying and the non-free nature of it.

every time I see a fairly priced computer on our second hand market I just wanna buy it I’m not good with money
Anytime someone I know upgrades their laptop, I’m hoping they will offer me the old one 😂

You just need a bigger house
