Am unexpected part of getting old is realizing you can get more computing power than your second or third desktop PC for 10$, next day shipping
I miscalculated. This thing is 1.2 ghz, 256mb ram, running Linux. I didn't have that much power until... God, college?
Yeah I had an iBook G3, which maxed out at 900mhz, and 256mb ram standard.
That was like 1300-1700$ in 2003. So 2300-3000$ today.
VS 10$. Shipped.
For a very American comparison, I typed "hamburger" into a food delivery thing and it told me 11.80$, plus delivery fees.
I've known for a while you can get entire computers for less than the price of a sandwich but I hadn't fully come to terms with how much of a computer you can get for less than the price of a burger
@foone@digipres.club yeah, I did built a real-life shitpost as in "cheapest compiter you can buy new" and that turns oit cheaper than a decent burger menu (or even crappy slop burgers from a big joint*…
@foone@digipres.club Wait what kind of computer are you getting?
@will@www.librepunk.club
One that aged better than a burger
