I got 64GB of ram for my laptop back in April, was close to 700, of is 829 today. I guess only desktop sizes are over 1k?

As someone that is bring changed from fully remote to hybrid in the next few weeks, I am already sad.

Yeah, and most the time they dont taste good

It’s true, I can not understand how all grocery stores constantly have fruit and vegetables available.

See what amazon did to older working kindles. Is there a law that phone makers can’t just brick their devices when considered old enough? It doesn’t seem that way. Soon we will all revert back to phones as phones only.

It is but ddr5 is not cheap

Agreed

I agree. On a new machine I’ve been using I tried Ubuntu and then Zorin, but Bazzite just works better. Could be the Fedora base that’s helping a lot, idk. But switching that machine over when I’m not lazy.

Don’t the same brands also make the store (private label) brands?

You see what they did to eBikes ?

It’s more that my daily life tasks have no use for AI agents or llms. I have dabbled with running local llms and agents, but idk yet, just haven’t gotten enough out of it that it seems worth it.

This is how skynet gets everyone that isn’t polite to AI.

I see a ton of i5-8th gen 2-in-1s with dead batteries, but under 100 on ebay

Just look at the processors in the Synology offerings, you didn’t need much to run a bunch of services.

I got my kid a used dell that was $90 on eBay and it’s running linux just fine with the 8th Gen i5. If you need more you can likely just spend 100 more. I have a hard time justification for new unless you have a need for specific hardware

I have been playing with Incus recently.

You can run Windows in vms on Linux if you don’t need screaming performance. I think you can directly install from iso with Incus as well. I haven’t find this yet, i used Qemu instead.

You could spin up a vm with mx and see how it works.
