    The smart thing is to build a powerful desktop, then just use thin clients and tailscale to remote into it.

        I mean if you routinely and for long periods work in areas with no WiFi, that could be a problem.

          Stg some colleges regressed in their network. I transferred colleges and at my old college, I occasionally struggled to stream steam games from my desktop in my dorm. The university I graduated from last had proper gigabit. I knew some people form my old college and it somehow got worse.

              It’s like a few mb best case scenario. Most people were getting really bad dsl speeds. For me, my game streaming was horribly compressed and almost unplayable.
