I'm upgrading the RAM and drives and will be making them available in the next few weeks.

(Donations are welcome, to cover the cost of shipping.) More info at the top of this thread. #SolarPunk #RightToRepair #Linux #EthicalTech #reus...

  This fun easy to follow tutorial steps you through everything a Windows user needs to erase and install and use #Linux . Specifically Ubuntu, but if you're keen to use a different distro you could reinterpret that part of the instructions without too much trouble. 👏 Well done, @WEATHERISHAPPENING https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4i3AvuEUvk4

  It's always a fun surprise to see two of my connections chatting when I know them both but would not expect in a million years they'd know each other. Gems of the fediverse.
