A device with no moving parts, only 5 years of expected life?! I understand if you say that high-performance users will want a newer system after 5 years, but I'd be very surprised if this 64GB RAM machine doesn't suffice for 98%

The only complaint on a fresh install is that Cinnamon seems to use a ton of CPU when there's a little moving thingy anywhere on the screen (a browser tab that has a loading icon in the tab list is sufficient). This is most noticeable

Chrome has it built into the browser. If you fake the Chrome user agent string from Firefox, it'll also not show up (but you shoot yourself in the foot in other ways so I'm not advising that). Or so I heard on Mastodon a few days
