"AI CPU"

Also I don't like the direction Ubuntu has been going for some time now unrelated to that.

these are already added to non-cix hardware; did you pass on those as well?

so you're purchasing old hardware? specialized hardware?

DDR4-era is plenty good enough for anything I'll use it for, and if not I'll use two. 🤷

My own ddr4 era hardware died a few months ago and finding replacements have been difficult; I hope you're better prepared to warehouse your own spares than I was

I've been collecting so I have some, not enough to rebuild from zero though.

If I have to I'll downshift to DDR3-era, I still have a lot of that. It's not ideal but it's mostly serviceable with expectations appropriately set.

Edit: it kinda looks like you could downshift also, as long as you had a video card (and software set up right) that could understand newer video codecs.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
