What are you looking for? What are your requirements? I mean, gaming? Programming (if “yes”, do your projects require lots of running services/containers?)? Which country are you in?

In Europe, I like using PCSpecialist a lot. They offer thorough customization of the hardware, and their prices are good (they start low, and it gets even lower because they allow you cutting Windows out of the bill). In the US I’ve bought a ThinkPenguin and was happy with it. I didn’t really like my custom-configured Toshiba back in the day. It had weak cooling and was thus very noisy, and it wasn’t done well, deteriorated with time a bit too much.

“Negative attention is also attention”. In the Linux community where we are in, the fascist DHH was already discussed at least once (in fact multiple times) in the last weeks.

I think suppressing this topic until they run out of money is a better strategy than every time trying to do holy wars. Of course the situation is different if you notice that the person whom you’re speaking with may not yet know. That is not really the case in https://lemmy.ml/c/linux

Can we please stop posting about Omarchy? It’s annoying.
