  • as a senior developer my advice is: buy parts and learn to assemble, the exchangeable parts are (at least for me):

    • CPU/Mainboard/RAM : always bought as a bundle (RAM at least 32GB), because dependencies are too high, I prefer AMD, but ymmv
    • GPU : Easy to switch, easy to spend a fortune, i always prefer mid range cards or older ones like the AMD RX 6600
    • Storage: Always the fastest possible, if you need to go cheap, then make it smaller, linux does need no significant space, and i run my system on a 240GB M.2
    • Case/PSU: Buy it only once, i still use a case from the 90`s, the PSU will only be upgraded if connectors change, 750W are enough for most of the work
    • HID: Dont go cheap on Monitors and Mouse/Keyboard, IPS displays are a must, if you have multiple screens (angular view is distorted otherwise), Most gaming input devices work very good for programmers, i prefer logitech (with ratbag), but corsair has very goot support under linux too (ckb-next)






  • Long time ago i was an actor and a cook at a medieval market. it was Beltane and my best friend said “I’ll get you a wife tonight”. It didn’t work, and she was very upset about it. I had some sausages on the fire when some girls walked past, and i cried out loud "i’m giving a sausage in a bun for a virgin, anyone interested?. One girl was interested, but very annoying, but her friend was cute. So now i’m married with two children with her.











  • People are dying because of the climate Change, and increasingly so, but please Somebody think about the economy… Really?

    Gas will be accessible to them in need, If those who don’t need to use it step back.

    No sane Person needs a 3t heavy pick up truck wit 600hp for their groceries…
