@Deleted User Dell Latitude or Dell Inspiron. Lenovo is also good, but they're Chinese. Avoid the brands with lower market share like Toshiba, Acer, etc. Dell, HP, and Lenovo are the 3 dominant laptop manufacturers and I'm aware of Dell and Lenovo being common for Linux.

@Deleted User A lot of people get a ThinkPad for linux. Personally, I'd get a Dell XPS these days, but they're more expensive for sure

Dell will sell their laptops with linux baked in already (which is a great service I think). Guaranteeing that the hardware is compatible is awesome.

See these results for Ubuntu between 500 and 800 http://www.dell.com/en-us/work/shop/dell-laptops-and-notebooks/sc/laptops/inspiron-laptops-netbooks?appliedRefinements=7692,6119

Dell is in Texas, Lenovo is in China. Buy Dell.

Dell makes such awful products tho

Otherwise I would love to

Their computers feel so cheap

Doesn’t Dell echo? Either way I will look into it

@Deleted User yep

I didn't know Dell was a jew

At least they hire Americans. Lenovo is closer to 100% chinese.

HP is American too, but they're not as Linux friendly, to my understanding.

Real goys build their PC

Here's a great lube I use pretty much everyday. Stuff is pretty amazing

I use it to lube up wood on wood friction.

Swing-A-Way can opener. Had it for 20+ years and it always penetrates the can, never slips off, easy and consistent to turn, best one ever.

Any advice on home buying? Looking at foreclosured homes in my area.

Thats the start

Always buy with equity in it

Ie under market value.

Then check the comparisons in the neighbor hood so you kno how much $$ you can put in it w/out losing

There's an auction listing for 11k. It's been on the market for about 700 days with houses in the area listed for 157k.

Hey if post pics of the house I can eye ball it for you, and if I see problems visually, I can explain what I'm looking at and why.

Thanks so much! There's a couple listings I'm considering. Would you mind if I DM you the links in a bit?

Yeah that's cool.

@SamanthaM it's entirely possible that a place like that has something critically wrong with it that the professionals see, but you don't

700 days is a long time for a house that underpriced to sit

Aye

Foundation, termite damage, mold, structural.

All good points. Definitely looking for second/third opinions on this. I have a current max budget of 30k and about a year or so to make a decision. Thank you. Very appreciative of any help.

Tiny house

@RevStench now's our chance

Hahah I was going to say the same thing

I like where your mind is

😂

Pack your tools, bro, we're going to Pennsylvania

@SamanthaM just jokes, btw

Wouldn't mind at all. Need all the help I can get.
