Gotta minimize your attack surface sudo apt remove konsole for any Debian kde based distros

I usually get amazon renewed dell, hp Lenovo here in the States. Laptops usually just come down to specs. Though I usually see them for around $250-$300 usd so a bit over your budget but will depend on what you can find more local to you.

These mini enterprise PCs pack a big punch for their size for desktop options. Might be able to find some if a local IT company is dumping old inventory near you

Say what you will the Iran war has pushed many people and countries to renewable energy.

I honestly don't completely understand the conservative agenda against renewable energy it allows independence at so many levels. Never have to see a gas pump again. Use the electricity from your house or a solar panel.

Tailscale and wire guard, it's underlying vpn application, have a big stake in being secure. Webmin not as much more focused on providing features and being secure. There is much more surface areas for a web application over a simple vpn service. And self hosted you probably aren't implementing intrusion monitoring as serious as tailscale web services would.

At the end of the day it's still Linux, and it's really well supported by documentation, packages and how tos. I tried Debian and ran into some driver issues Ubuntu solved. Why worry so much and just use what works. I'm sure Ubuntu server minimal is similar in weight to Debian anyways.

When you realize it's just a big average sentence machine starts to make a lot more sense when and where to use it. I think it should be used as an exact problem solver not a general one. Government regulations can't come soon enough because unlike previous tech this one has the ability to deceive and if it gets access to resources we will be in direct competition with the AI.

I didn't realize it ever was considered a winter virus? I thought that's what made it so dangerous, is that it wouldn't cycle like the flu does.

It's so they can justify doing the same thing

Owns disk grabs pirate copy because it's easier 😂

Unit tests can be another iteration of requirements, a stake in the ground for the future. Nothing like having a merge request come across that fundamentally changes a unit test to know that an old requirement was broken. Sometimes it's not obvious from a code change how it could change the ecosystem of code.

You must have a lot of people and/or some heavy mods. I haven't had much issues with 3-4 people on a VM with a Xeon E5-2690 2.90GHz
