If AI hadn’t eaten all the RAM & SSDs, what would be on your desk right now & how much longer are you waiting on that NAS/laptop or desktop upgrade? 🤔

@nixCraft On my desk pretty much the same, but getting hardware, even only replacements or little upgrades, at work is a nightmare right now.

@nixCraft Luckily I upgraded my GPU just in time, but I'll stay on 1TB nvme instead of planned 4TB. I'm finding out now that my old HDDs are actually fine for most things: speed only matter when loading games (for me)
I did buy another thin client to mess around with Plasma Bigscreen + KDE connect, to replace my chromecast that google broke. It's pretty cool!

@ln what is the thin client? I wanted to try out plasma bigscreen on my TV.

@nfilipes It's a dell optiplex with 8th gen intel chip. That's for streaming DRMed HD from the browser, older chips are too slow it seems.
