they're already pretty much there, intel 6th or 7th gen desktops can be had for like \~$100-150 and still offer plenty of compute power for the vast majority of use cases. HP Z2 G4 is a great option, got one for my wife as a gaming build and it was so nice to build in and perfectly reliable since then, so i picked up a G5 (10th gen i9) for myself.

I want this to be true so much, but as a person who has used Ubuntu Server for over a decade, the Desktop version still gets me in trouble. e.g. when X11 gets pissed after installing a routine Nvidia driver upgrade and you can't get your UI back for the life of you. It's great when it works, but it's still not a great experience for the mainstream user.

LoL is made by Riot, which is owned by Tencent. The AC runs at ring-0, in the kernel, and doesn't even stop running when the game is exited. It can install and hide anything it wants with impunity, and it doesn't matter if you have an AV, *you wouldn't know*. Only a complete and utter blathering fool would run *anything* that hooks into the kernel that isn't absolutely trusted, *especially* not one made by the Chinese in an era of ever-increasing surveillance and tension between China and the US, with cyber attacks at an all time high. Given the popularity of the game, slipping a quiet backdoor to be used in case of emergency in with an update is a given. Not to mention it's an easy target and exploit for hackers or viruses. Oh, and it's great for spying on you too, since it's running 24/7 and you have zero guarantee it will uninstall.

If you're frustration with windows is that they're dropping support for your hardware long before it's obsolete, then I dont see how switching to Mac helps. Apple does they exact same thing. As an owner of an old macbook I get daily reminders to update MacOS even though my model isn't supported. The reminders are more frequent but less intrusive.

Good advice; I'd planned to add another small SSD for Linux to avoid partitioning an existing drive, but unhooking the spares to avoid accidents is a good idea. (And going to be a pain, I really should consolidate my drives at some point.)

I have no idea what you mean and how you end with dependency hell. All i said was that I find editing a text file much easier than to kick a ton of commands into a shell, just to edit something in the system you can't change/manage in a much simpler way (= text files).

I tried installing the java version of PokeMMO on my Steam Deck. Doing so required a dependency which had the aforementioned dependency chain. This was last year, so I don't remember what packages they were. That's also happened with a bunch of packages I've tried to install from AUR. Getting Pamac installed was impossible.

Just like when I upgraded my Windows 7 to 10. Then my mother board died and I couldn’t use my Windows 7 license and I had to buy Windows 10. Hence my reluctance to just upgrade. Also they added a keylogger to Windows 11 that stores the data it harvests in plain text.

That happens because the wrapper found a "better" pricing model. It's gotta make payments whenever it makes API calls to a site unless it's too small. That wrapper will be eating those API costs, and so long as it has something else pouring money in (ads, investors, membership fees, merchandise, contracts) it can sustain those API calls. Some websites do make their API calls free or super inexpensive though.

You’re right but you’re not selling it like an MBA. It will go more like this: “rather than increasing the tax you pay at the pump, we will move the increase to a mileage-based tax. By doing this we can lower the increase by spreading it more evenly so that non ICE vehicles pay their fair share.” Two years later they will increase the mileage tax rates because reasons. A year after that they will find some budget deficit that they need to balance and they’ll increase the mileage tax and the gas tax.
