This week I’m refurbishing a 15+ yr old computer which was stalling on windows 10 and got abandoned. Currently making a huge backup to an Icy box (the self built variant of a wd passport or similar).

On wednesday, a friend comes over and we’re repasting the old i5. I might add some ram and a better but used cpu later which should give this thing another 10 yrs as a server. The mainboard is full of features and would accept a 4 core with 8 threads and 16 GBs of DDR3. Nothing to play recent games on but maaaaany docker containers will run on this baby! :)

Let me know what you’re doing to spit on consumerism and built-for-the-landfill-economy.

Reminder: I made a petition on change.org to make consumer electronics manufacturers open their devices after they stop supporting them. Please sign it, your support is needed.

          The only party leading the country is the communist party.

          So, it is communist ideology.

          The government said the country is ‘socialist republic’ to look good with other capitalism nation like US, so we can trade and make $.

          The only legal political party is the communist party. There is no other legal political party.

            not sure I agree. Just because they have communism in the name imo doesnt mean they actually care vor communist values.

            From wikipedia again:

            centered around common ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange that allocates products to everyone in the society based on need.[3][4][5] A communist society would entail the absence of private property and social classes,[1] and ultimately money[6] and the state (or nation state).
