Totally agree, I'll add that I run jellyfin, the *arrs, an admittedly low throughout ripping/encoding setup, and a few other containers on a single optiplex micro 7060 and there's a lot of room leftover. I very much appreciate the laptop processor in it because it usually sits idle for 16 hours a day.

I'm giving you a paraphrase of the rest of the article that you've already said you couldn't read.

here is the archive link in case you want to read it without my poor paraphrasing.

Where do they claim they don't collect this information?

I'm thinking of upgrading from my Asus e200ha at some point. Want it when I do?

It's basically nothing new, pharmaceutical companies are charging 1000% markup on the cost to produce drugs. I'm sure the story is supposed to be that United health isn't covering any of that cost, but they sure beat around the bush saying it. A pharmaceutical conglomerate (PBM) is accusing people of Cherry picking data and that the median out of pocket cost for medicines are $5. Considering how cheap most non-life saving drugs are, it's a bit of a cop out since we're talking specifically about cancer treatments, not high doses of ibuprofen. Which they're probably also charging 1000% or greater of wholesale, because it probably costs a few pennies to manufacture those medications.

Is this what you're referring to?

My experience with flaxseed oil was less than stellar. It works real nice at first, you get a good strong non stick seasoning, but after a few uses it starts flaking off. My guess is that it forms too hard of a coating, so when the pan expands and contracts through use, it starts to separate from the seasoning. Avocado oil works pretty well, and so does normal vegetable or canola oil. The surface isn't as nice as a fresh flaxseed oil coating, but it's a lot more forgiving through use.

I've got you beat. 32gb emmc laptop.

I need every last mb on this thing. It's kind of nice because I literally cannot have bloat, so I clear out folders before I forget where things went. I only really use it for the internets and to ssh into my servers, but it's also where I usually make my bootable USB drives, so I'll need 2-5 gb free for whichever ISO I want to try out. I really detest the idea of downloading to one USB, then dd-ing that to another. I should probably start using ventoy or something, but I guess I'm old school stubborn.

I tried using flatpak and docker, but it's just not gonna happen.

Yeah, that's what they said.
