You are right he was egalitarian in that.

I also have it on good authority that he had a black friend which gave him the N word pass.

It’s racist

I can see the schematics!

If they named it X12 this would have been so much smoother

When something isn’t in mass production yet it costs a ton extra to make so I’m going to do a hot take and give Dell a pass.

Also soldering remains unbeatable when it comes to making the thinnest and lightest device possible.

CAMM RAM is nowhere near mainstream yet so that’s understandable. NVME should be known though.

Don’t forget to praise them every day for your company not spontaneously combusting.

Why not recommend Manjaro then? The benefits of Arch without all the drawbacks.

For beginners it’s probably best to give them an OS they can actually use and then have them find out stuff. Starting off with a troubleshooting experience before being able to use the OS is rather demotivating.

I see I was picturing a 25 pile stack of PC’s this makes a lot more sense thanks for the explanation.

I’m not sure if running multiple single SSD machines would provide much redundancy over a server with multiple PSU’s and drives. Sure the CPU or mobo could fail but the downtime would be less hassle than 25 old PC’s.

Of course there is a learning experience in more hardware but 25 PC’s does seem slightly overkill. I can imagine 3-5 max.

I’m probably looking at this from a homelab point of view who just wants to run stuff though, not really as the hobby being “setting up the PC’s themselves”.

Of course, but installing everything on multiple bare metal machines which take IP addresses, against just running it in VM’s which have IP addresses… It just takes a lot of extra power and doesn’t achieve much. Of course that can be said about any hobby, but I just want OP to know that there is no real reason to do this and I don’t understand so many people hyping it up.

I don’t understand why people want to use so many PC’s rather than just run multiple VM’s on a single server that has more cores.

In my experience they’re very solid. They also have thicker PD charging cables.

Linux developers are famous for how civil they handle their arguments. Especially that Linus Torvalds guy.

Having a custom distro that installs some extra frequently used software by default is no problem for me.

You need those metal ones with braided cable

They have some of the best USB cables (strongest, least breakable). Used to be cheap too until they started spending big bucks on marketing.

Sounds like a Linux problem to me
