Used ThinkPad's are pretty common on Ebay.

They're what I use. Also with Debian.

"Recent" is a factor of how much you're willing to shell out.

$300.00USD will get you a good Debian compatible box. You may want to then replace the battery and/or add RAM. Those are both found inexpensively also.

Not just computers...

As a septuagenarian, started very early as a voracious reader. Usually in bed before sleep. Often by flashlight.

Needed correction for nearsightedness by age 10.

Saw a study recently that attributed significant amounts of reading as a possible/likely cause... Tend to believe. This study seems to come to same/similar conclusion. Also tend to believe.

Can never be certain, but... ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ ๐Ÿค”

"will eventually roll into a subscription model"...

At which point I will happily cease and forego any/all use of Kindle.

Sunk costs and all.

Pfft...

Good job.

The "one liner" thing is entirely overrated.

Honestly, who the fuck cares...?? ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿคท

In the world I want to live in...

Google would have taken a principled stand against such an attempt at a govt.

Instead, they bent the knee along with every other Tech Oligarch and, therefore, deserve the hit.

If there existed any valid reasoning for the change... ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

But the Felon Dicktater is only doing it so he can claim himself architect of global geographic change. Same reason he wants Greenland, Panama, Gaza, etc.

Fuck that.

I back Sheinbaum on this one. Won't matter, but do it anyway.

Well... Yet another case of research confirming the bleeding obvious.

I guess having confirmation is good... ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Yep, seems legit, eh? ๐Ÿคฃ
