Anything made in the past 10-15 years still works great, I have a couple of really old thin clients that I bought for around $20 and dumped my pis when the prices were way up. One runs octoprint and the other one runs Lubuntu out in the garage so I can look up vehicle specs and other things while I’m out there. I have a fifth Gen Intel laptop that still works great. I have a desktop with a Ryzen 3000 series that works just fine both bought used for under $100. Raspberry pi is good for certain tasks, but using it for a desktop makes little sense. Even now I’m working this message on an Android phone that was around $100 with no issues.

CPU power hasn’t changed much, they’ve added more features over the years, but power hasn’t changed a lot, only Windows has gotten more bloated so you need more ram to run it.

You can also just buy a used laptop or business computer which is infinitely better and cheaper.

Just look into what you can afford and what kind of loan you can get and see if it makes sense. I don’t think there’s going to be a crash because there is still a huge deficit of new building. I expect that there will be more housing built this year, but there’s still a high demand, so those new houses will be pricey. In the long term I expect more inventory to open up as the age group dying out is the largest age group. However, that inventory will be places that are less desirable to younger people. The population of small towns is about to shrink drastically.

I suppose you could use targeted social media algorithms to target people within a certain area who are service workers who are more likely to see him. So they could theoretically manipulate people into better recognizing him.

I think that the gun and everything else were dumped and found and the cops are saying he had them on him when he didn’t. I think they know it’s him, but they didn’t use legal means to identify him (parallel construction). They might have used some kind of new way of tracking people that they don’t want to reveal to the public.

Fourth option, he’s taking the fall for a love interest.

Ok buddy

Someone else pointed out that this is a monkeys paw situation. Can’t advertise vaccines either probably.

I don’t really understand the scam other than to further alienate Republican voters away from reality/reason.

Obviously not, but turnabout is fair play. You don’t have to have active fines. Just find one of these book banners and send them a demand letter, if they don’t return (book that is definitely worth over x amount) the librarian can issue an arrest warrant. If your wife happens to be wrong, well, qualified immunity bithces.

Some states give librarians the authority to issue arrest warrants if the value of overdue books is over a certain amount. Just saying.

First class letter mail is up to 3.5 oz and within a certain l thickness. Every ounce costs extra over the first oz (idk about commercial return mail pricing) just stuff it with flat cardboard from cereal boxes or fill out the information wrong and put in a competitors corporate address.

I’m sure they already exist, but there’s probably a big audience for fanuc robot arms.

If you send back one of those reply mail envelopes it costs them money. Stuff those envelopes with junk and send them back.
