Thinkpad T60. A relative of mine got it from their employer, IBM, as a decommisioned machine that was only used by said relative. I was 4 years old. I played hours of GTA: San Andreas, then about a year later I installed Ubuntu which sent me down the Linux and C programming rabbit hole. I learned so much. Thank you, kind relative (whom I’ll not name, not doxxing myself).
Why? Never heard of it but it seems similar to Tails. I’d rather use Tails than something I’ve never heard about, but is there anything inherently wrong with it?

Oh, wait. He wasn’t fictional…
Nothing, really. I only check the chats with my best friends, look at the time, and check the school timetable (I do have it on paper, but they always make some changes and then I’m the idiot for going to the wrong class…)
Name one current country that’s not capitalist. I’ll wait.
I agree I should have phrased that better. Something like a “secret agent following you wherever you go” maybe?
That nearly everyone is carrying a tracking device with them, designed to disguise itself as a convenient entertainment device.
And here I thought I was decent in Math… Thank you for the explanation :)

The only way
In my opinion, the Framework laptop is great for people who want the newest and fastest CPUs, whule also getting the customizability and repairability. I mean yeah, I’d buy an older Thinkpad, but programming in C doesn’t require much compute power or RAM. However, my graphic design and video editor friends won’t make a living using the same machine as I do. For them, the Framework is miles better than any other brand new machine with the same specs (if they want repairability, etc.).
Ever since I started talking, I wanted to be a heart surgeon. I read tons of books and watched hours of youtube videos about heart surgery, some of which were so graphic, that they made my mother pass out.
Later I got interested in networking, Linux, and systems programming, and this is my current job. The tons of graphic videos with blood, etc. increased my tolerance to nasty injuries pretty drastically. I was a bystander to a few very serious car crashes and I had no problem helping the survivors with incredibly awful injuries until the paramedics came, so I guess at least something positive came from it.
On the internet, even if it’s a very nice open source platform, always operate under the assumption that nothing you say or do is anonymous. This is Internet usage 101, however, people seem to always ignore this. Do with this as you will :)
I see you got the prime Greece experience. Well done my friend :)
In any eastern European country, I simply look the driver dead in the eye and pass, if they’re far enough to actually stop. However, whenever I visit Greece, especially Athens, not even the green light can save you. There is a running joke among Greeks and it goes along the lines of “stronger car wins”. Basically, if you have a fast car, you have priority on any intersections and pedestrian crossings, and the police do jack shit about it.
Man, I love Greece, beautiful country, amazing people, but with disfunctioning police and government in general.

This hobby has to be the cheapest of all. Go to the park with a pen and paper, bonus points if you leave your phone at home, and let your mind wander :)
