I had used computers back since I was a kid in the 90s with my families 95 then 98 machine, and finally XP. But MY first computer and introduction to tinkering with software was an EEE pc 1005HAB. Atom processor, 2gb ram, and WiFi. I loved the thing. Best of all, I discovered it had compatibility (but not power) to run TF2 on it, which was so much better on PC than console. I spent hours finding ways to overclock it, mod the game to be as lightweight as possible, and eventually was able to play a game at a solid 30 fps so long as I played on the smallest map and used models that were only 50 polygons each. I installed Linux for the first time too, and so of course the next logical step was building my own pc. The rest is history I suppose…

Aerospace division? Do you even know what Boeing does? Its all aerospace (except I guess for that one sub thing they made I think?)
But ya, Calhoun is a lord on high for sure.
Religious freedom is a human right. Self determination is a human right. As long as whatever you do does not cause a negative impact on other people (see the second right) or society at large, then gtfo.
Looks like I’m going to finally cut my subscriptions and move my family into using selfhosted sources that I supply from the high seas. This shit is ridiculous.
Back in my college days, I first used a T60 (not ultrabook) then moved to an x220 (nearing ultrabook). The X220 was perfect, removable battery, all day battery, good build quality, perfect for linux. I rocked mint with DWM for the 2nd half of my uni days.

I’ve been on Mastadon for a while, and have liked it for content that was less mainstream on Twitter. Gave a better way to get more frequent content from folks I wanted to follow over Reddit. Glad to see Lemmy finally gain momentum due to the Reddit drama.
Needs to be Linux? Xps. Unix? MacBook of choice.
