I'm gonna pull the trigger.
Okay,ButThisIsTheLastTime


Gonna install Debian. Need something that Just Werks™ for the next while.
Gonna sell my HP and buy a (new) Lenovo T495 with maxed out specs (minus the extra drive, since I have tons lying around). But it ships in five weeks. I don't really have that kind of time right now if I'm online all day long, so I busted out my 8yr old Acer that is for some reason still chugging along. It also has battery issues, hence why I don't use it anymore except for maybe playing around with a vulnerable ISO or as a home server, but with some lightweight Linux distro installed, it performs decently. 8GB RAM, i7, and an integrated Nvidia chip. Optical drive, too.

So Debian it is. Don't feel like spending hours ricing and configuring Arch/Gentoo for the hardware. Just need something to access the web (Google Drive, Makestation, social media, etc.) and I can run all my graphics stuff under Wine like ClipStudio or Photoshop. There are enough guides and configurations out there to make it happen.

Will do a basic rice and post screenshots when possible, though.
