Clipart exists, free use art exists, the Gimp Green Pepper stamp tool exists. I would read a blog with extensive pepper stamp art before something with over the top hacker aesthetic AI generated slop art.

Look on the positive side, the faster AI causes more harm the faster our bosses might wake up and push anti-AI company policies! Oh who am I kidding, ya'll asked for this reality. I will take great joy in the suffering from my AI-less

And? I just upgraded my 2008 Thinkpad R61i to 8GB of DDR2 a few months ago while I was also upgrading to a core2duo. DDR2 and DDR3 are still in active use by SBC manufacturers.

With how apple seemed to be caught by surprise when it came to Macbook Neo demand, I'm not sure they have the quantities of SoC's around to handle the demand a Mini Neo could drive. Especially if they could do it for $299.

I used to live down the road from a John Deere plant and some of that was just local loyalty and belief in the jobs it created. Or old habits and brand loyalty dying hard. Our family had ford tractors, ford mowers, and ford trucks until en
