Pretty good! I’m going to be able to get the first part to my custom PC next month (GPU, Raedon 6800 XT) so I’m pretty excited!

Ooo, nice! I’ve been meaning to learn more about cli/tui stuff, anyway. Thanks!
I’ve heard they run Linux well before, but I certainly didn’t expect them to be so popular, lol. Plus they’re cheap, which make them seem like a very nice choice. Thanks for the model specific recs, too!
I have enough money to buy a more modern Lenovo laptop, but I’m definitely considering getting one renewed simply because of how cheap it is. I’d prefer newer age specs tho. Thank you!
Oh :( As annoying as that is I can’t bring myself to completely take it off the board. Thanks for the warning, though! Nobody’s mentioned that so far :)
Ooo, nice! Although I don’t really want to use Ubuntu myself (nothing wrong with the distro itself, I’ve just tried others I like), the knowledge it’s Linux compatible is amazing!
Thanks! They look good but are a little expensive :( they’re definitely a vendor I’ll look into in the future, though!
YEAH it sucks when drivers for hardware aren’t Linux compatible (my current drawing tablet doesn’t support it… RIP). I’ll be sure 2 head ur warning about HP!
They seem pretty nice, and I’m pretty sure it’s the best route to go down for now. I’ll probably look for some credible sellers later and make my decision then
Framework has quite a nice selection and the modularity is an amazing feature! Although having Linux preinstalled is a pretty big draw, and Sysytem76 has some VERY nice looking machines. Thank you!
I’m heavily considering just getting a refurbished Thinkpad just because of the low cost, along with the support. And yeah, I’ve been making a point to avoid Nvdia for that reason, lol. Thanks!
That is quite a bonus! Framework seems like a really nice choice so far
Ooo, nice! They seem to have a real nice selection, too!
Ooo, nice! And yeah, buying a laptop without knowing for sure Linux is compatible would be a very bad idea, lol. As for ThinkPads, I’m highly considering getting one simply because of the price point, but used/refurbished stuff can be a bit of a gamble if it’s from somebody who isn’t credible
While the laptops being so modular is really useful, the list of supported OS seem a bit narrow, although that doesn’t mean I’m not considering. Thank you!
I’ve never heard of framework so I’ll check them out, although it’s a bit unfortunate they might not have anything in my price range :( thanks regardless!
As sad as I am by how Reddit turned out, this was the kick I needed to start truly indulging in the fediverse! Everybody’s been nice so far, and I hope that it continues to be that way
The original FFVII game! Figuring out how to get the multiple discs to work from an emulator was a bit of a pain, but afterwards it’s been easy sailing! While it certainly has its problems, I can see why it’s so popular. Planning on checking out the remakes later on to get more of it, but I can’t deny I’ll miss the low-poly graphics of the OG, as I’ve always had a soft spot for that kind of 3D art
