Mine is also my cheap £20 rice cooker. Found out I can make Quinoa in it recently and very happy

I get what you're saying but putting "Volkswagen had actual Nazis" and "some Linux coders are from Russia, the largest country in the world" next to each other reads a bit funny lol

Any Lenovo laptop is a very safe bet! You can just install Linux onto it and should work great

I switched to Linux a few weeks back and setting up the work printer on my laptop took 2 seconds as opposed to the normal 10 minutes. I was gobsmacked

Why aren't russian people allowed to upload code. Why does the US get to dictate everything

Can you not use Firefox on apple products? They've got extensions for that I'm sure

We have to do all of our calls on Teams because we work with participants and it's a bit more secure than Zoom (which can have people straight up bombing your call for funsies). And if we're already using it for that, idea is we may as well use it as a shared drive too. An ugly and buggy one.

Yeah!! I haven't had any trouble with it yet, my laptop has only one SSD slot which is why I did it on the same one. I just switch when I boot up. I have the Windows one just in case I can't get a game to run and to access my work's shared drive (absolutely cannot figure it out on Linux lol)

Lots of Linux distributions are specifically built for older laptops! And all of them tend to run pretty well on lower end equipment. Here's a list that also mentions the specs needed for each one: https://linuxsimply.com/best-linux-distros-for-old-laptops/

Linux Mint, probably the most popular one on all computers nowadays regardless of specs, has a minimum RAM requirement of 2GB with 4GB recommended :) they make Linux distros for old tiny Raspberry Pi computers so even if your computer is a hundred years old you'll probably be able to run TinyCore on it at least

Teams has decided it won't recognise like 50% of word docs anymore. So you can no longer edit them within teams and have to download them. If you simply read and scroll down it, the scroll glitches so bad for no reason. Ugh
