It's a decent machine. If you haven't already, a €0 upgrade would be dusting it. For a little money you could get a tube of thermal paste and reapply it to both the CPU and GPU. If the thermal paste has never been replaced on either, then I would say it is time.

Other than that, I vote for trying out Linux on it. The system is good enough that you don't even have to aim for lightweight distros, I'd say. Try out any distro you like.

It should be good enough for a daily driver Linux PC with some mild gaming thrown in as well.

Although, If the hard drives are as old as the rest of the system, you may want to avoid storing important data on them.

Edit to add: if you have need for a smart TV, using this as a HTPC (home theater PC) could also be a good idea. The only thing you'd need to buy for this would be a wireless keyboard with a touchpad. And that's optional. (Although, I would highly recommend it since I use one with my HTPC, and it's great.)

Don't know, don't care. This honestly isn't my main account anymore, but I switched to it to reply to this post to prove I'm not lying about how long I've been here.

My account is 3 years and 5 months old. I joined Lemmy before it was cool, because I like open source things. In fact, when I joined, Lemmy.ml was the main/recommended instance. Now you all hate it.

Lemmy used to be a barren wasteland of content. Now it is not. I've noticed no further changes. The tankies, the in-fighting, the debates about whether to de-federate with instances, the arguing over whether it's becoming too much like reddit - it's all been here as long as I can remember.

The movie "Legally Blonde." Reese Witherspoon's character gets into Harvard to be closer with the male, her ex.

He, astonished, asks for clarification if she got into Harvard, and she responds with the bottom text.

You are searching for FOSS apps. You are a minority. There is no incentive to make AI lie about whether or not an app is FOSS - it's just not a selling point to the vast majority of people.

However, AI is incentivised to give you an answer that it "thinks" will make you happy. That's one of the reasons why it lies all the time.

What holiday?

They reached a trillion because they don't pay livable wages.

This is just fetish content.

Not a complaint, though.

I came here to suggest MX Linux w/XFCE. I use the plasma flavor mostly now but I've been using MX as my daily driver for like.. 2-3 years now.

(the white stripes also count)

I feel like there should still be 13 stripes
