      I don’t know what half those things are but I laughed at the words “Breast Mints”. No idea what it means.

    ACKTUALLY they’re on the verge of dropping i486 support. Fucking bullshit if you ask me. Now they expect us to upgrade our computers more often than once every 40 years? Homebrewers ARE JUST NOW figuring out how to diy i486 motherboard chipsets.

    Next thing you know we’ll need a 3090ti just to boot into Grub.

      I feel old…when I was learning how to run Linux I started with an old 386 (maybe 486?) my dad wasn’t using. I think it had 32MB RAM, which was fancy for those machines.

      We had dial up at the time, so only one machine could be on the Internet. So, I set up a modem on the x86, plugged into an Ethernet hub (switch?), and learned enough ipchains (this was before iptables) to share a connection. It also ran Samba, an AFP server, and probably FTP and HTTP (just for local access) — but it worked for filesharing.

      It could also run MP3 streaming software which amused me because the machine itself was too slow to decode MP3 (but that’s not necessary to stream).

      You can easily run 2 of Windows Tiny11 builds on that.

    Anyone have Linux recommendations for x86 machines?

    EDIT: Desktop editions of Linux.
    EDIT 2: 32 bit specifically. I thought x86 and 32 but we’re the same thing, but I was wrong.

    electricity (optional)

    I don’t think that anyone’s yet booted a Linux kernel on a purely-mechanical computer yet.

        It wouldn’t need to be super large necessarily. It could just be very very slow.

        Theoretically, an immortal person with many many stones that follows instructions very clearly could “emulate” (be) a computer, right?

    Ok just wait us Microsoft execs are going to pressure Trump to keep increasing tariffs on the penguins and when all of a sudden they need new suits for all the tween penguins ready to shed their adolescent coat we will see who comes out on top.

    This is how you do business, penguins don’t know how to do business and we won’t let them have our AI so they can figure out how to either.

      Trump tariffed penguins because he didn’t understand what Microsoft was talking about.

        He probably heard the name McDonald Island, assumed that Ronald McDonald lives there, and chose to tariff the island so Ronald will give him special access to unlimited McDoubles for free.

    Inaccurate. The Linux side should include a ton of wasted time trying to make 1 wifi card work or get stereo sound. Requirement = lots of pointless time.
